Often when there is some element in a Game Show that is hidden from the contestants' view or knowledge, the home audience will get a "sneak peek" at the gameplay element in question. In some instances, the host will sometimes remind viewers to look away if they are playing along, with an audible indicator to let the viewer know when it is okay to resume watching. Please note that this is only to reveal a certain key component of gameplay, not all instances of game questions being shown on-screen. |

The approximate location of the hidden object when a room is searched on the Toffler and UK versions of Finders Keepers. The cameramen on the Eure version would occasionally zoom in on the hidden object's location if the contestants were searching the wrong part of the room. | |

Whose Line Is It Anyway? would often include games where the contestant is trying to guess what another contestant is supposed to acting like, with subtitles revealing the answer for viewers at home.note (This actually makes it funnier, as we get to see what ridiculous quirk the performers got, and the sheer hilarity of us seeing the one trying to guess try to get it right when we know.) | |

The names on You Don't Say!! At least once per show, however, the name would be replaced with "Guess Who?" or a set of question marks. | |

Parodied on radio quiz I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, which tells the listeners that the studio audience are seeing the answer on the "Laser Display Board", but really uses a runner with a bit of card. For the Folks At Home themselves, there's a "Mystery Voice". | |

The price of the items offered in "Clock Game" on The Price Is Right. The audience also sees the prices, hence why the host asks for silence (a rarity on Price as it's one of the few shows that actually allows the audience to help the contestant come up with an answer, if not the only show). This is to avoid helping the contestant in this case, and at least one person had to be escorted out of the audience for failing to comprehend this simple rule. | |

Figure It Out: The first contestant's secret was shown to home viewers prior to the Opening Narration. The second contestant's secret was done twice: once before the commercial break and once afterward. Both Secret Slime Actions were revealed prior to Round 2 of each game. | |

In Bargain Hunt, the viewers at home will get a sneak peak at what the auctioneer thinks of the items the teams bought, and more importantly what the auctioneer thinks of the expert's "bonus item" that the team may or may not go with. Usually this is the auctioneer saying just exactly how badly the item in question is going to do. | |

Wheel of Fortune: From Season 23 through Season 30, what is hidden behind the "Mystery Wedge" when the wheel landed on it is superimposed over the overhead shot for a few moments while Pat spiels about the decision. In Season 31, this changed to the wedge only being shown if a contestant decides against flipping it over. This practice stopped entirely in Season 38. | |

On the first few episodes of Classic Concentration, the rebus solution would be revealed to the audience superimposed over the numbered squares. Also, Alex Trebek would often use this exact phrase at the end of a round, saying "Let's show the folks at home how [contestant] solved the puzzle." The Jack Narz version of Concentration did this with the rebus solutions before the actual rebus was shown in the Double Play Bonus Round. |

Legends of the Hidden Temple used this when the room the artifact of the day was hidden in was announced by Olmec, the camera would pan to a close-up of the artifact sitting in the room in question. This was averted on one occasion, in the season 2 episode The Secret Battle Plan of Nathan Hale. The first three rounds (Moat, Steps of Knowledge, Temple Games) of the episode were taped on the first filming day of the season. At this point, the artifact was intended to be hidden in the Throne Room (while this was never outright specified, the artifact can be seen in the room during the Temple Games). For unknown reasons, the taping of the temple run was postponed and rescheduled for later in the season. By the time the run was able to be taped, the Throne Room had been replaced with the Laser Light Room, so the artifact was relocated to the Shrine of the Silver Monkey. However, also for unknown reasons, instead of quickly filming a close-up of the Battle Plan in the Shrine, the shot of the Shrine normally used during Olmec's rundown of the temple's rooms was used instead. |
