What’s My Line? was a game show on the CBS Television Network from 1950 to 1967.


Blindfolded celebrity panelists questioned a weekly “mystery guest” to determine his/her employment.

Moderated by John Charles Daly, regular panelists included Dorothy Kilgallen, Arlene Francis, and Bennett Cerf.

What’s My Line? was the longest-running primetime network television game-show in America.

The show won Emmy Awards for “Best Quiz or Audience Participation Show” in 1952, 1953, and 1958 and the Golden Globe for Best TV Show in 1962.
