The caller reads a show title, or plays its theme song and lets residents guess, and everyone with that show on their card covers it. Westerns, comedies, variety hours and family dramas from the 1950s through the 1970s are all here.

    Questions and answers

    Are the bingo cards really free?

    Yes. You can print up to 10 unique cards per game at no cost, as often as you like, without creating an account. The optional Unlimited Pass is for larger groups.

    How do I save the cards as a PDF?

    Press "Print or save as PDF". In the print window choose "Save as PDF" as the printer. On a phone, use the share or print option in the preview that opens.

    Is every card different?

    Yes. Each card is shuffled separately from your list, so players cannot all win at the same time. The more items your list has beyond the number of squares, the more the cards differ.

    Can I use my own words?

    Yes. Replace the list with your own words or phrases, one per line. A 5×5 card with a free space needs at least 24 items, a 4×4 card needs 16 and a 3×3 card needs 8.

    What paper should I use?

    Normal printer paper works. Card stock lasts longer if you plan to reuse the cards. The layout fits both US Letter and A4.
