Figure It Out is an American children's game show hosted by Summer Sanders that aired on Nickelodeon for four seasons from July 7, 1997 to December 12, 1999 and the revival of the show will begin running on June 11, 2012, and will be hosted by Jeff Sutphen.
Kids with special skills or unique achievements competed as contestants on the show while a panel of four Nick celebrities tried to guess the predetermined phrase that described the contestant's talent. The series is considered[by whom?] a loose adaptation of What's My Line? and I've Got a Secret, both established panel shows created by Mark Goodson and Bill Todman.
Shortly after the series aired its last first-run episode, Figure It Out began airing repeats on Nick GAS until the network ceased at the end of 2007 (2009 on Dish Network). The series was recorded at Nickelodeon Studios at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida.
On March 7, 2012, it was revealed that Figure It Out would be revived with a 40 episode order that will premiere on June 11, 2012.

It sure wasn't like Camelot
You don't know what you want except for more
And you're sitting so still again
There's nobody to blame when you're insecure
You twist my words around too much
I'm getting dizzy from the smell of urinal mints down
the hall
Just go
You're talking at me, wondering if you count
Figure it out
And now, it's all about giving up
But nothing I do's enough, you make no sense
Still it's all just a game to you
My opinions are strange to you ...at least they're
meant
You twist my words around too much
I'm getting dizzy from the smell of urinal mints down
the hall
Just go
You're talking at me, wondering if you count
Figure it out
You're talking at me, and now it's comin' down
Figure it out
I hate the way I'm doing this so I can be alright to
somebody else
I heard you say, "You don't know what it's all about"
But if you try you'll figure it out.
You're talking at me, wondering if you count
Figure it out
You're talking at me, and now it's comin' down
Figure it out
Figure it out
Figure it out
