LINGO wasn't the BEST game show (Jeopardy, Password ... for us), but it was worth a watch.
In LINGO, contestants get the first letter of a five letter word and make guesses about what the word could be. If any letters in the guess fall into the right place in the word the game has supplied, they light up, leaving spaces to make better guesses with.
So an important strategy is to make guesses that, in particular, use all the vowels so that you WILL light up letters and have a better clue to the target word.
