Beyond Reason was a Canadian game show that played as if the Amazing Kreskin was a panelist on What's My Line? (Kreskin was a mystery guest on Line a few years before this show hit the air), but there were elements of Canada's long running Front Page Challenge in here as well.
This excerpt from the 3rd & final season in 1980 is significant because host Paul Soles, the original voice of Spider-Man, who was the 3rd MC for Reason in as many seasons, has Spidey's co-creator, Stan Lee, as a guest, and gets to interview Lee after the panel is done.
As we now know, Lee began wearing a hairpiece sometime around the 70's. He had it when I met him at Marvel's NY office in 1973. I'll tell that story some other time. How Soles wasn't brought in for an audition to reprise as Spider-Man the next year, I'll never know.
