Gameplay
A panel of three celebrity guests answered movie questions to win prizes for home viewers.

The panel faced a game board with nine categories. Each category hides part of a movie scene. The object of the game was to uncover the scene and correctly guessed what movie the scene came from. The panelists in turn picked off categories and answered questions under those categories. Each time a question was answered correctly, the panelist who answer the question scored a point, and then the category the question came from came off the board to reveal a piece of the scene. If a panelist answered wrong, the other panel members tried to answer the same question. The first panelist to solve the movie puzzle (guessing what movie the scene came from) won prizes for a home viewer. The losing panelists won consolation prizes for their home viewer partners.
