About The Cross-Wits

The Cross-Wits ended on December 15, 1975, after its single episode aired on that day. The show was a game show that involved panelists working together to help contestants solve crossword puzzles with themed words. It was produced in syndication and featured a distinctive set design characterized by black and neon elements, reflecting an urban contemporary style. The program also included a hostess who pointed at selected words, similar to the style used in Wheel of Fortune, to assist in solving the puzzles. When it concluded, a British version of the show was created, but the original version did not continue beyond its initial broadcast.

The Cross-Wits was a crossword-based game show that premiered in 1975. Contestants and panelists collaborated to decipher themed words within crossword puzzles, with the show's visual style emphasizing a modern, urban aesthetic. The series was short-lived, airing only on December 15, 1975, but it left a mark as a unique quiz show format involving word puzzles and team effort.

The show starred Jack Clark as the host.
