The show was based on “sketch pad charades”, a game he often played with his friends in his living room in Jupiter. [[Vicki Lawrence]] hosted the daytime version on NBC while Convy hosted the syndicated version until 1989 when he left to host ''[[3rd Degree (game show)|3rd Degree]]'', also created by Reynolds and Convy.{{citation needed|date=January 2022}}
