Mel Blanc asks that you get out a pencil and paper and answer as you go along.  Each question is given a point value and you add your points up at the end to see if you are a genius.  Most of the show's questions are about cultural literacy of the era, such as "What date was the first Model-T Put on the market?"  But other questions are word literacy and common knowledge.
