Celebrity Time (also known as The Eyes Have It) was an American game and audience participation television series that was broadcast on ABC in 1949 - 1950 and on CBS in 1950 - 1952.
[citation needed] The show began as a battle of the sexes between teams made up of audience and celebrity panelists, who would be asked questions which involved such topics as guessing names from the news, to identifying film clips.
[4] Panelists included, at various times, Shirley Booth, Gene Lockhart,[5] Roland Young,[6] Kyle MacDonnell, Kitty Carlisle, Ilka Chase,[3] Sir Thomas Beecham, Slapsie Maxie Rosenbloom, John Daly, Peggy Ann Garner, Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi, Herman Hickman, Martha Wright, Mary McCarty, and Jane Wilson.
The Eyes Have It holds one footnote in television history – it is the only game show to debut as two unrelated programs with different formats, networks, producers, and hosts on the same day.
[citation needed] In 2016, a 16mm kinescope was discovered by a film archivist that contained lost footage from two live CBS television shows.
