Bill is never listed as a
regular
for this series, but early in his career, as he was beginning to make a
name for himself on I've Got A Secret,
he
made at least six consecutive appearances as a panelist from August 6
to
September 10, 1952, and two more appearances a few months later.
It's possible his appearances on this show may have started before
August,
1952, but that episode appears to be the earliest surviving episode for
the series. He was probably only a replacement for Meredith
Willson
during that time, but the regularity of his appearances warrant at
least
a mention on this site.

Many, maybe even all of
Bill's appearances
on The Name's The Same survive, as does much of the entire
series.
The series has been seen on GSN: The Network For Games as
recently
as 2008 as part of their Black & White Overnight block.
