Eye Guess was the first game show I remember watching growing up in New Jersey. It was also the first game show produced by Bob Stewart after he left Goodson-Todman to become his own boss. The game itself was rather simple. Two contestants studied a board of eight questions and had to remember their location to questions asked by host Bill Cullen. Revealing wrong answers could be very funny and that's one aspect of the show that turned out to be a hit. Also, Cullen as host did an outstanding job, keeping the game moving and injecting humor after a wrong answer. The bonus round lacked consistency thought the one i remember the most was the one with seven prizes and a "Stop" sign. The contestant who found all the prizes before the "Stop" usually won a car.
The show got a boost in 1967 when it was moved to the time slot after the original Jeopardy. It would have had a longer run if a new NBC daytime vice president didn't do a mass canceling of game shows such as You Don't Say and the original Match Game in 1969. Eye Guess is a show that should be revived. They need to get the right host and not tamper with the main game.
