Panelists had to guess in twenty questions the identity of an item selected by the audience members. The television show started in November 1949 as a local show in New York state, broadcast by WOR-TV. It then was picked up as a program by the network NBC, for the last month of 1949. ABC broadcast the show from 1950 to 1951, and the DuMont Television Network broadcast it from 1951 to 1954. The show returned to ABC from 1954 to 1955, but was then canceled permanently. There were pilot episodes for attempted revivals of the show in 1975 and 1989, but neither pilot attracted much interest. Written by Dimos I See less
