It's not the same without the original commercials at the time period. It boosts that feeling of nostalgia. Many thanks for posting this!

[@penske369]

I know he said it every day for 15 years, but it amazes me how Peter Marshall always nailed the rules explanation at the beginning.

[@a.b.sproductionsllc]

Word! He was sharp and smooth with it!

[@carolynargabright8132]

I like these old shows complete with original commercials.

[@rochefort]

Only two commercials in a break?? Give me the 70's anyday...

[@FlavioGirl]

great quality and love the commercials. thank you. :)

[@AmericanSoldierLakotaSioux1969]

I LOVE CLASSIC HOLLYWOOD SQUARES!!! TOP NOTCH CELEBRITIES AS USUAL, AND PAUL LYNDE ALWAYS CRACKS ME UP!!! CLEAR QUALITY AND COMMERCIALS TO BOOT, LOVE IT!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING AND POSTING MY FRIEND!!!! KEEP 'EM COMING!!! GREAT WORK!!

[@DesiluTrek]

Thanks for the laughs, Joan Rivers!

[@GoldenSilents]

Wow, look how young Billy Crystal was!!! And hey, Paul Lynde looks FABULOUS!

[@FlavioGirl]

unfortunately paul lynde died sometime in the 1980s :(

[@RayJacksonbighmw]

1981, to be exact.

[@valerieteti1755]

Ray Jackson Actually January 10, 1982

[@RayJacksonbighmw]

@@valerieteti1755 Thanks for the correction, RIP to both Paul Lynde and his sense of humor, he made this show worth watching.

[@stet1965]

Daytime TV without 4 minute prescription drug or insurance commercials - nice!

[@bradwesley6498]

Thanks for commercials. I mean...wow...our world has changed...

[@JW_Steed]

`thanks for posting.

[@AstralPixie]

Still remember this.... Libby's Libby's Libby's on your label ;)

[@bobbyadkins6983]

Peter Marshall is 97 years old.

[@rennyminou]

I've counted the number of commercials recently on various networks - seems like the average is about 8 per break "This hour has 22 minutes" : )

[@booberry349]

the REAL Hollywood Squares

[@rickw1100]

Love Paul Lynde!!

[@L1Games]

5:00 people mistakenly believe that the Academy gave out Oscars made out of wood. In fact, only one wooden Oscar was ever given. In 1938, ventriloquist Edgar Bergen received a wooden Oscar for his work with his wooden dummy, Charlie McCarthy.

[@disneyfan81]

Yeah, I read that during the war, Oscars were actually made of plaster.

[@mstwelvedeadlycyns]

Incredible!

[@mH8675309]

Seriously,, Is there any reason a show like this wouldnt make it in todays world?

[@leefalls8703]

People today don't know how to take a joke if it's not 100 percent politely correct

[@astridsanderson3006]

sad that they're all gone. I don't know 1 comic living, that could come close to their humor. i'd love 2 spend 1 nite talking to paul..........

[@pattibrooks1907]

Paul Lynde was my favorite on the show !

[@crystalgrose]

Wow 77! The year I was born.

[@Camop-iz9kt]

Peter said "object for the players" over 3500 times in 14 years.

[@astridsanderson3006]

when depressed watch these funny shows, soooooooooooo funny

[@smittykins]

I bet Peter could still rattle off those rulesl in his sleep.

[@wonglee2424]

Woolite commerical $5.50 for dry cleaning you wish

[@Joemurph10]

How did you get this? I wish I could see more daytime versions!

[@alonenjersey]

The girl drinking the milk shake in the Weight Watchers ad looks vaguely familiar.

[@finnmccool684]

Wait, there's a problem here. I thought we were supposed to have 3 minutes of programming, followed by 7 minutes of commercials.

[@ADAMSIXTIES]

Tom Kennedy 1927-2020.

[@michaelpowell5266]

Yep, Peter misses him, just like the rest of us!!!

[@73gossipboy]

People know HS was known for BIG stars which is why it was so popular!!

[@Bryanccc3]

Real celebrities!!!!

[@tpir1972]

Billy Crystal around this time set the Pyramid record with 26 seconds.

[@GumbyPokey-c8w]

October 3, 1977 NBC Daytime

[@catholicpriest1]

Some of the jokes were written for the celebrities.

[@91dodgespiritrt]

Except for "Weezie Jefferson", "Gomer" and Tom Kennedy, the rest are (obnoxious) reasons I didn't watch the Hollyweird Squares.

[@sputnut]

only 2 commercials per break, not 10? wow.

[@Tricob1974]

@6:23 - That doesn't surprise me. A housefly's lifespan is around a month, according to what I've read.

[@HarlemHyena]

5:46 It's the WOOOOLLLLF! Had to do it.

[@millenniumman75]

The backdrop behind Peter Marshall looks familiar. ...like the current decor on the Price is Right.

[@catholicpriest1]

Sounds like Peter Marshall's voice in the Weight Watchers commercial.

[@sugarbear522]

Weezy! Oh....Sorry. I'm havin a 70s flashback. I saw a few of these on Channel 5. In speaking of Libby's, they had a canning and distribution plant on 119th & Marshfield in Chicago. The site now houses a strip mall with a Target.

[@disneyfan81]

Actually "Rabbit Test" did not hit theaters until 1978.

[@poetcomic1]

Classic game shows - commercials in between commercials.

[@quizmaster85]

"¡Si, señor!"

[@MrJacMac1968]

Muffled audio.Probably because it came through phone lines instead of satellite back then

[@alonenjersey]

It was the 70's. Ask him when you see him.

[@NelsonVlog66]

Don't think all the original TV spot are included(ie, network promos, station ID's, etc.)

[@MUSCLELOVER4me]

Look what they do to the men's eyebrows: Ed Asner 5:24

[@mjbari3]

Peter Marshall is wearing a shooting jacket???? Was that in style then?

[@ironman7036]

what you see on tv is not REAL LIFE, remember they act

[@303430]

which state was this recorded in? I don't remember any of those commercials.

[@rgrndu]

Where's the rest?

[@ChrisBakerauthor]

Barbara Rhoades also appeared on _Soap_, although it was after this.

[@SmilingSynic]

2:20. Wasn't she in Caddyshack and Animal House?

[@bonnierininger880]

What happened to the rest of the show?

[@markbock839]

why cant they put these episodes on buzzr tv.way better then watching the game show temptation or super market sweep

[@luisreyes1963]

Even way better than that lame Body Language. I fear legal reasons are behind it not being rerun.

[@jonathanashbeck3740]

Buzzr does not have the rights to air it

[@morgan8757]

i allways liked barbara rhodes

[@samuelgriffin9364]

Miss these daytime television game shows they were classics back then in between game shows aired on daytime we had daytime soap operas on every daytime network CBS NBC and ABC the television commercials were the best too compare to what we have today the only two game shows we have in the morning let's make a deal with Wayne Brady as host and the price is right with drew Carey who replaced Bob barker

[@JohnSmith-kz8yo]

2:22 I think she was in 'Caddyshack'.

[@The1972watcher]

John Smith Maggie right?

[@NICKPOFFAUTHOR]

Joan Rivers? Billy Crystal? 1977? And nobody is talking "Rabbit Test?"

[@tdickensheets]

On GSN.

[@judygmcfin]

What is the point of even doing this if it stops in the middle of a game??

[@jgi1opgf]

Joan rivers is old

[@Bestmanme08]

narth.com

[@91dodgespiritrt]
