Gameplay
The game features a group of panelists divided into two three-person teams. The two teams are made up of the show’s original cast members and occasional special guest players. Teams answer a series of questions to earn up to ten points for each correct or a humorously suitable answer. As the host provides more clues, fewer points are awarded.

Rounds 1, 3, and 5 vary each week and consist of signature categories such as “What’s the Difference? “, “Odd Man Out,” “Melded Movies,” and “Common Threads,” as well as a variety of miscellaneous literary wordplay.

Rounds 2 and 4 are the Bluffing Rounds. In these rounds, the three members of one team are given an obscure word (e.g. Cacafuego); one of them gets the actual definition, and the other two must bluff with fake definitions composed during a brief musical interlude. The other team attempts to determine the correct definition from the three presented. Points are awarded for guessing or bluffing successfully.

There is also a “Spotlight Round.” This segment highlights memorable rounds from the show’s early years, especially of former host Richard Sher. Requests for “Spotlight Rounds” are submitted by listeners.
