Salvador Dali Confuses The Panelists On ‘What’s My Line?’

Whenever Salvador Dali is around, things take a turn toward the strange. While What’s My Line?‘s master of ceremonies, John Charles Daly, often finds himself tied by the limitedness of the “yes and no” question format, Dali’s appearance makes matters worse because Dali wants to say “yes” to everything. Then again, you wouldn’t expect anything less from a man who considered himself to be drugs.

Cool TV Video Of The Day: George Carlin On What’s My Line?

The following is a clip from the syndicated version of the CBS game show What’s My Line?. In the show, celebrity panelists were blindfolded and asked guests questions to determine their occupations. At the end of the show, a “mystery guest” is brought on stage and the panel must determine the identity of the guest. Comedian George Carlin acts as the mystery guest in the clip. If you are used Carlin as a cantankerous old man, this appearance may surprise you.

Nickelodeon Brings Figure It Out Back

Nickelodeon’s Figure It Out has been brought back into production, much to the excitement and dismay of 90s kids everywhere. New episodes will start airing next month with current Nick stars, such as Victoria Justice, Big Time Rush, and Jeanette McCurdy.

Here is the promo for the new version:

For those unfamiliar with the show, it’s What’s My Line? meets Nickelodeon. Celebrities, mostly from Nickelodeons shows, guess the unique talents of the kid contestants. The panelists have to ask the contestant yes or no questions hoping that they get a little closer to the hidden talent. In every round the panelists are given clues to help them. The longer it takes panelists to “Figure it Out”, the more prizes the kid wins. If the panelists never guess the kid’s talent, the kid wins the grand prize.

While the show may not be remembered as well as other Nick game shows such as Double Dare or Legends of the Hidden Temple. Figure It Out is very much a Nickelodeon show with a large fan base.

The new version of the show looks promising; despite the absence of original host Summer Sanders. Hopefully, there will be a shout out to the original Figure It Out. It is unlikely to happen, but fans of the 1997 version will keep their fingers crossed for an appearance from Kenan Thompson or Amanda Bynes.

Enjoy your walk down memory lane 90s kids!
