    I say this game show is better than GUTS. hide « show »

    When it comes to game shows that I love like Get The Picture and some that I dislike like Nickelodeon GUTS,this one is the perfect one I love.This show has kids do their talent that some kids can't even do and celebs from shows guess what the kid can do and the people give them clues to a word that belongs for what the kid does.It has the thing that Nickelodeon GUTS doesn't have.It has prizes and advertisements before the credits.This is one of the game shows that I love and it should have new episodes of it on Nick.

    Figure it Out premeered on Nickelodeon 10 years ago, and it's still popular today. Airing on Nick GAS, it keeps the pannelists and the viewers guessing. hide « show »

    As far back as I can remember, Figure it Out has been a hit game show when it first aired on Nickelodeon 10 years ago. Already, I was guessing the contestants' secrets and laughing at those Secret Slime Actions.

    In this show, a group of four pannelists from other Nickelodeon shows try to figure out kids' secrets by asking yes-or-no questions. Sometimes on the show, you get to see surprising after-games like Name That Thingy or The Last Laugh. Can you figure out why I like watching this program? Neh, I might have stumped you already.

    Figure it Out is a big hit Nick game show, next to Double Dare 2000. In the emortal voice of Danny Tamberelli, "I DON'T KNOW!!!" of another Nickelodeon game show that outdoes this one.

    I don't know why it ended. hide « show »

    This was a truly awesome show. I used to watch Figure It Out all the time when I had the Dish Network, but I don't have the channel now, since I've switched to DirecTV.

    But I still remember it. I remember a few of the characters, or panelists. Danny was always my favorite. He would always be the one to do the Secret Slime Action. But I highly doubt you know what the Secret Slime Action is. Just in case you have no earthly idea what it is, here it is.

    After the first minute, or round is up, there is a certain action, that if a panelist performs, he or she gets slimed. Maybe touching your face was the Secret Slime Face one time. If one of the panelists touched their faces, a siren would go off and they would get slimed with the famous Nickelodeon green slime.

    The game show itself can be explained now. People with weird, strange, or interesting facts about themselves can compete on Figure It Out. It can be as short as three words to as long as eight words or more. Words like at, the, it, and more will already be pointed out as the other panelists have to guess the rest. Words in the puzzle that the panelists say will appear on the board. There are three, one-minute rounds. If the panelists haven't gotten the puzzle solved after then, they go to a bonus round and each panelist gets to solve the problem once. After the last panelist guesses, and still the problem hasn't been solved, the contestant wins.

    This is a great show and very unique. Just too bad it ended a while ago and I no longer have Nick GAS, the channel it shows on. My least favorite panelist is a girl named Mary Beth. Why? She is the smarter one and she guesses most of the puzzles and gets them, so it makes the round short and sweet, most of the time.

    Thats my opinion on this great, fabulous, show!

    "Figure It Out" is an updated version of "I've Got A Secret" for kids. A group of panelists ask questions to a contestant or contestants to "Figure It Out". hide « show »

    Figure It Out - I could say a million things about this show. Summer Sanders is hot, the show is one of the last good shows on Nickelodeon, what ever happened to Danny Tamborelli... and so on and so forth. I find Figure It Out very entertaining for a couple reasons: half the people on the show have stupid "talents" anybody can do, and I like the slime. Who DIDN'T want to be slimed as a kid? Figure It Out is one of a few shows left on Nick Gas, so enjoy it while it lasts. It's definitely a Nick classic.

    a show where four panelists try to guess 2 kids random talents before the time is up! hide « show »

    i love this show! i know its really old but i have been watching it lately on Nickelodeons Games and Sports network. its really funny because the panelists are from shows like all that and other classics and they are really spontaneous, and of course there is always slime which is my favorite part of the show. in each show there is a secret slime action that when performed by one of the panelists, gets slime dumped on them. its really funny to see their reactions to the slime and its fun to see all the kids that are put on the show. overall a really good show to watch if your bored.
