This is the version of this classic game show that I grew up with. The main differences I find between this version and the original is that it tended to lean more towards comedy and that the stylish attire was gone (the men didn't wear tuxedos and the women eschewed evening gowns in favor of slacks or casual attire). Also, the show played more like "I've Got a Secret" as the contestants would often demonstrate their skill or would have a sample of the product they either sold or made. Many fans of the original version hated this; however, I still enjoyed watching the panel try to guess the occupation of different individuals as well as trying to figure out who the mystery guest is. Too bad it is not shown on a regular basis anymore. The only time this version is shown on GSN is when a guest who appeared on this version has passed away and they want to do a tribute to that person.
