I remember this show. You had to describe something without describing the very phrase you had to get somebody to guess.
Example: The phrase is "Dont Count Your Chickens Before They Hatch." So you describe Dracula who was a count, the hatch to a spaceship, take this route to it.
I am watching Lost In Space on DVD and Mickey Manners appeared on one episode, West of Hades.
I remember Manners from this game show, mainly because of the baseball player, Mickey Mantle. I had a time believing the little man on the gameshow was a baseball player.
He wasn't, not the same guy.
I also remember Peter Haskell, another bit actor player, appearing on an episode and a woman sought to describe exhaling.
She said "I just let out some air," and there was wild laughter all the way around. Well, it was the early 1970s, when everything and anything was laughed at as some sort of innuendo.
Haskell would very deadpan look at the camera and hold his nose and puff his cheeks out.
Then the woman would finally continue "I just let out a breath of air." Can't believe it ran for twelve years tho! I remember another woman, seemed like it might have been Jaye P. Morgan, and she described fishing with a magnet on the end of the line to collect nickels, dimes, pennies, quarters, she said slowly.
Well, I knew even then that money wasn't magnetized. Who was she fooling?
