Your Number's Up is a game show that aired on NBC daytime.

Three contestants and the studio audience participated. Two numbers from 0 to 9 are randomly selected via a numerical wheel to represent two players. The remaining player chose of which two incomplete clues for which the other two had to give the answer. Upon hearing the complete clue, the player buzzing in answers. Correctly doing so scored a diamond and that player spins the wheel again. If no correct answer is given, the challenging player wins $50. The number representing the correct answerer goes on a display.

When a studio audience member sees his/her pre-written four digit number (last four of their phone) in the display, he/she picks which on-stage contestant will be the game's winner. Six diamonds wins the game, and that audience member wins a bonus prize if his/her on-stage partner wins. The player winning the game selects a card from a drum of viewer postcards, and that viewer wins $1000 in cash. The on-stage player can win $5000 by correctly predicting the last four numbers of the viewer's telephone number.

During regular game play, if the wheel stops and the image of a car is under a player, he/she can win a car by correctly guessing which number on the car's license plate has been hidden.
