Line 1:

'''You Don't Say!''' was an American television game show that had three separate runs on television. The first version aired on [[NBC]] daytime from [[April 1]], [[1963]] to [[September 26]], [[1969]] (with a nighttime run in 1963-64). In the 1970's, the show was picked up by [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] and ran from [[July 7]], [[1975]] to [[November 28]], 1975]] (replacing ''[[Money Maze|The Money Maze]]''). A final version appeared in syndication during the 1978-79 TV season, but didn't last the entire season.

Line 57:

*Goodson-Todman Productions sued Ralph Andrews Productions (YDS! production company) during the 1960s because they thought that the format was too similar to G-T's ''[[Password (game)|Password]]''. They didn't win the case.

*Both the NBC and ABC versions of ''You Don't Say!'' were replaced by soap operas. On NBC, ''[[Bright Promise]]'' replaced the original, and the ABC version was replaced by the recently acquired ''[[The Edge of Night]]'', which turned out to be the last 4 p.m. ABC daytime show.

*''You Don't Say!'' premiered on ABC three days after Tom Kennedy's previous show, ''[[Split Second]]'', had been cancelled. (A similar instance occurred a little over a year later, with Kennedy's ''[[50 Grand Slam]]'' being replaced by a short-lived NBC version of Kennedy's ''[[Name That Tune]]''.)
