* TheAnnouncer: Johnny Jacobs.



* DieHardOnAnX: It's essentially ''Match Game'' [--[[InSpace WITH POETRY!]]--] To be fair, ''Match'' sometimes did questions involving rhyming couplets.



* Personnel:
** TheAnnouncer: Johnny Jacobs.
** GameShowHost: Bob Eubanks.
** StudioAudience
** Regular Panelists: Included Nipsey Russell (who was known to do ad-libbed poetry during his game show appearances to begin with), Charlie Brill, and Mitzi [=McCall=].

* GrandFinale / TrashTheSet: Oh, did they ever. According to ''The Encyclopedia of TV Game Shows'' (co-authored by David Schwartz, Steve Ryan, and Fred Wostbrock), ''Rhyme''[='s=] finale was rather unique as panelists Charlie Brill, Mitzi [=McCall=], Jaye P. Morgan, and Pat Harrington made it clear that the show was canned...by destroying the set. Throughout the taping they tore up the carpet, smashed lights and signs, and as Eubanks did his signoff at the end they managed to knock down his podium!
** ...But regardless of how Schwartz, Ryan, and Wostbrock got to the above, it's wrong. Morgan wasn't present for the final week (and neither was Russell, who was ill), and based on the extant audio the carnage didn't start until Eubanks signed off.

* UrbanLegend: For many years, fans thought William T. Naud (who also worked on ''Series/BlankCheck'') was either Dan Enright (the rhyme reveal cue on the pilot was from Creator/JackBarry's ''Joker'', and ''Check'' was a Barry show; Johnny Jacobs announced for both shows) or Creator/ChuckBarris (some of ''Rhyme''[='s=] staff also worked for him). In reality, Naud was a real man who wrote, produced, and directed a few low-budget films (including 1972's ''Wild In The Sky'', co-written by [[Series/TheHollywoodSquares Peter Marshall]] and co-produced by [[Series/{{Lingo}} Ralph Andrews]], and the truly dreadful ''Franchise/{{Rocky}}'' parody ''Ricky 1'').
