Hollywood Squares | Game Show Week I, pt. 9

[@Rogersocal]

Wow, Peter Marshall is such a great host. He's witty, quick, articulate...so great that they had him guest host !!!

[@adamdicy]

Peter Marshall: A games worth. (yells) A th - thousand dollars? Whoa! Times have changed.

[@tomsnyder6955]

Cool to see Peter Marshall to host Hollywood Squares

[@CJODell12]

Don't touch that dial, this is not the Game Show Network. It's me after 102 years. LOL.

[@NICKPOFFAUTHOR]

What fun! It's great to see Mr. Marshall back on the podium. I'm not sure how old he is, but the dude is jamming like he never left. Hard to believe this is 20+ years later.

[@d.ramsey9640]

He is now 95

[@banshee7827]

THE EXCHANGE BETWEEN PETER AND BOB ABOUT THE SHORTS-HYSTERICAL!!!!!

[@BrandonSugiura]

LOL...right

[@Agent_1701-D]

God bless you for putting this up, seeing that this was the episode where Marshall returned as the Master of the Hollywood Squares.

[@andreaberger7393]

Peter just turned 88 in March and has NOT missed a beat. Quick, witty, and just a kind and wonderful human being. He is everything you see on TV (still) and then some to this day. Talented far beyond the scope of Hollywood Squares, he has been a 'song and dance man' since he was 14, has a lovely voice (remembers every single word of a song), and to this day, still performs and MC's. He has played lead men on Broadway and toured with bands and small ensembles all over. He is gracious with fans who approach him, accommodating them with autographs and pictures. We cherish him as a good personal friend, certainly not because of his fame, but simply because he is a truly one of a kind wonderful guy.

[@930bestvideos]

I can't stop playing that over and over again.

[@khenry320737]

"Look who's talking, Beaver Face!" Man, Paul Lynde was funny!

[@debrag6770]

Love the respect affection and camaraderie .

[@RealTime88]

That was funny when Peter shocked at the rise in cash. My grandmother got me hooked on game shows and this one is one of them. H2 was awesome and Tom was such a great sport to switch places with Mr. Marshall. I recommend you read Tom's new memoir. It is very well written.

[@willjarmon]

I have been looking for this for years on KZbin!

[@Sharkie626]

Love this! Peter hasn't lost his talent one bit!

[@tinamarie86]

Both game show weeks are my favorite theme weeks during this run of H2.

[@mrbow50001]

"The game is worth a thous- A THOUSAND DOLLARS?!?! WOAH! Times have changed!"

[@samsticka]

Peter said he wasn't a fan of Hollywood Squares during the Whoopi Goldberg era. He didn't think it was written and produced well.

[@williamharrell3622]

you are the man peter god bless you

[@christopherangel6690]

Peter just got up there like he never missed a cue! Awesome. Notice how he keeps the game moving!

[@sabster74]

Peter Marshall is STILL the master of the Squares. (mic drop)

[@BenJabituya]

Yeah, so is Wink!

[@Camop-iz9kt]

Peter said, "Object for the players...." more than 3500 times on the original run.

[@RolandTaylorJr]

That classic HS clip came from one of my all time favorite episodes that aired on GSN

[@sprinter82]

I thought Tom was as good a 'square' as he was a host. It's not often you see hosts actually become part of the play in their own shows, contestant or panelist.

[@jamieakagibby]

Something about this just feels right…❤️❤️

[@jordan.m2485]

Martin mull was not only on the Tom Bergeron version but he also appeared on the Peter Marshall version as a panelist.

[@gedias1]

So was Jimmie Walker.

[@winddragon04]

i know the feeling I started with John's version and then of course was a fan of Tom's it wasn't till i saw a thing on E! about the one hosted by Peter and then thanks to GSN I finally got to see episodes of his version. I understand why shows like this and Family Feud keep coming back after being off keep coming back. It's good clean classic fun!

[@trevorpanno5371]

Used to watch the original “Hollywood Squares” in middle school when it was on GSN.

[@DDRHottestPlayer]

Also, this was NOT Tom Bergeron's first time as a square. In Hollywood Squares Season 1 with Goldberg, Gilbert Gottfried & Rosie O'Donnell guest-hosted while Bergeron sat in their squares. NOTE: He did not get a name plate "Tom Bergeron" for his square. He had to stay with Gottfried & O'Donnell's name plates.

[@technospyform1578]

Where's the episode? I want to see Gilbert Gottfried host the Squares😂

[@JBar387]

They were showing some of the original versions. Tuff to tell you when they are on!

[@robertpolityka8464]

Peter Marshall is the man!

[@Noveltooner]

Actually, Peter DID wear long pants when he originally hosted "Squares"…"Storybook Squares", that is. Heatter-Quigley had a great knack for producing classy kid-friendly fun versions of their games ("Video Village Jr." and "Storybook Squares"). At this time, they were also launching their cartoon creation on CBS produced with Hanna-Barbera, "Wacky Races."

[@BrandonSugiura]

He should of done part 2 of the Game Show week! (ref: Peter Marshall)

[@kokoken1]

"Choking came in third, paid $2.80" -- LOL!

[@californiadude999]

I didn’t get this joke 😢

[@johnd8167]

It's a reference to horse racing and betting. "Choking came in third" as if Choking were the name of a horse. "$2.80" would be what a bettor would win if they picked Choking to come in third.

[@chuckers40]

This was the show's 5th season for "Game Show Week." in the fall of 2002 Rod passed away the following year.

[@chaphenry4732]

A THOUSAND DOLLARS?!?!

[@lazertagger5]

I like how the host says mustaches

[@harrellwilliam6]

peter is good game show host

[@harrellwilliam6]

I remember Jim sinces the seventys dating game

[@robertszvetics210]

ONE OF THE BEST EVER

[@edwardmelanson9835]

He is the original host

[@michaelpowell5266]

@@harrellwilliam6, Jim could've hosted Classic Concentration on NBC in the late 1980's, but Mark Goodson chose Alex Trebek!!!

[@Daffyfan2006]

Yeah. I know what you mean. I remember in John Davidson's version first and maybe second round games were worth $500. I think it was sometime during the first or second season in Tom Bergeron's version that it went up to $1000.

[@LeoVargas94Oficial]

@spxmet Tom Kennedy appeared on the other Game Show Week. Not sure if Jack was on as well.

[@johnissoevil]

Yep, had been for about 8 months at that point.

[@disneyfan81]

Yeah, I even wondered that back when I started watching "MG/HS" myself, considering it replaced "Fantasy" that Peter co-hosted with Leslie Uggams?!

[@nextbarker2702]

I believe this was Peter's first appearance as host since the Daytime version went off the air in 1980.

[@Sasfoot]

The only thing missing for Peter Marshall as host again was the late Paul Lynde.

[@michaelpowell5266]

He still had Charles Nelson Reilly!!!

[@gsparkway324]

@bhuang8 on Peter's version, a game was worth $200. Given inflation, $200 in the late 60s/early 70s goes as far as $1000 goes in 2002

[@disneyfan81]

@Noveltooner Actually he only wore shorts when he did the January-September 1968 NBC Primetime and the 1971-1981 syndicated versions of the "Squares". He had to wear long pants on the NBC Daytime "Squares" be- cause, he stood up to greet new contestants.

[@JeopardyandWheelFan]

@DDRHottestPlayer He was a panelist on the original Hollywood Squares as well as a celebrity player on the $20,000 Pyramid. And believe it or not, Kathy Griffin also was a celebrity player. She appeared on Rock & Roll Jeopardy! at least once.

[@spxmet]

I thought Tom Kennedy & Jack Narz were part of H2 game show week?

[@disneyfan81]

@Noveltooner Actually he only wore short pants when he did the nighttime "Squares". He had to stand up to greet new contestants on the daytime version.

[@robertszvetics210]

HE IS THE MASTER OF THE HOLLYWOOD SQUARES.

[@DENo1MatchGameFan]

The 'master' is back where he belongs!

[@bluebear1985]

@bluebear1985 Also, during the brief 1968 primetime run, each game was worth $300, plus $50 for each X and O on the board when time was called.

[@dakotareeves3939]

On this episode, Peter Marshall and Tom Bergeron switch places, until they switch back during the bonus round.

[@megamanj2004X]

This was only the 2nd time that Tom played as a panelist. The 1st time came in an early S1 episode (which GSN skipped over) wich had Rosie O'Donnell as one of the Squares aking if she could host a game, and Tom politely obliged and him and Rosie traded places and Rosie hosted a game and when Tom was one of the stars in the Squares, he was seen doing Rosie's trademark on her talk show: flinging koosh balls.

[@JeopardyandWheelFan]

When I first started watching Hollywood Squares, it was obviously this version. I didn't know until I saw a clue on Jeopardy! that there was an original version with Peter Marshall and I also didn't know until watching a clip from the Most Outrageous Game Show Moments that there was an 80s version with John Davidson. Nevertheless, all three versions have been successful.

[@tsukune007]

when was this taped because rody roddy passed away.

[@LeoVargas94Oficial]

2002

[@SJSharkWannabe]

Had to rewatch this after hearing that Mr. Marshall passed away today.

[@Noveltooner]

Actually, Peter Marshall DID wear long pants when he originally hosted "Squares"… "Storybook Squares", that is.

[@markperry4536]

Rod Roddy also announced Price is Right

[@somerandomgameranimator4481]

Would’ve been cool if Peter Tomarken was on Game Show Week

[@gedias1]

It would have been nice, especially with Rod Roddy there, who worked with him on a few shows.

[@tinamarie86]

I always wondered who sang the theme song, was it a solo or was it a group effort? Thanks!

[@andrewschroy6368]

Solo-- sung by Teena Marie.

[@charliegeraldjr5926]

Happy belated birthday to peter Marshmall

[@harrellwilliam6]

Peter is 90

[@DDRHottestPlayer]

Martin Mull isn't a Game Show Host. Or is he?

[@RealTime88]

I know Kathy is so beautiful and funny. Did you get Peter's autograph?

[@XaMaS35]

Where was Shadoe Stevens in all of this? It would have been cool to have him replace Kathy Griffin here.

[@chuckers40]

Shadoe Stevens came back for Game Show Week Part II, the next season.

[@technospyform1578]

I'd have preferred Gilbert Gottfried.

[@mexicanspec]

I knew the Disneyland answer, but I don't know why I know it.

[@StukInBuf]

@tsukune007 Rest Rod Roddy's soul.

[@JoeyLamontagne]

Instead of Kathy Griffin, imagine if they added Joan Rivers or Betty White!

[@technospyform1578]

I'd have preferred Gilbert Gottfried but ok

[@jordan.m2485]

Well I'd prefer judy gold.

[@Shanali-ry1nl]

Tom Bergeron and the production crew did the right thing letting Peter Marshall host Hollywood Squares again in this episode, but if only Henry Winkler (since he was the last to executively produce Hollywood Squares) and the rest of the production crew brought back Marshall to host the show again on April Fool's Day 2003, it would be a much better April Fool's treat to enjoy than the joke they planned to play on Tom, the panelists, and us, the viewers!

[@disneyfan81]

@Hondo20132 Yes, but a year later, it wouldn't be (boo! hiss!)!

[@nextbarker2702]

Is this Rod's last TV exposure?

[@pacmannick]

Whoopi will never get Peter on Hollywood Squares

[@bbqking7410]

By the time this broadcast aired, the Fonz was running the show and allowed Rod Roddy to introduce Peter Marshall as host and Master of the Hollywood Squares!!!

[@robertminet2845]

Peter marshall is the greatest

[@bluebear1985]

@gsparkway324 It was $200 a game on the NBC daytime version, but each game was worth $250 on the nighttime syndicated version. Also, if they were in the middle of a game when they ran out of time, contestants would win $50 for every X or O they had on the board at that point.

[@Rlotpir1972]

AND if they ran out of time, an annoying super-loud horn will blare scaring everyone; Peter calls it "Tacky buzzer".

[@tinamarie86]

@MegastarLV I don't believe so.

[@JeopardyandWheelFan]

@DDRHottestPlayer And also, Whoopi guest-hosted a round in Season 2.

[@mitchellries256]

I've said this before, and I'll say it again. What are Martin Mull and Kathy Griffin doing here? They have nothing to do with classic game shows.

[@actownsend7288]

And yet they became fan favorites of the 1998-2004.

[@shawnm7351]

Peter marshal.

[@robertszvetics210]

TOO BAD KENNY WILLIAMS WASNT THERE.

[@disneyfan81]

@STOPobama1 Yeah, even he'd probably be better than Drew Carey!

[@trevorpanno516]

Used to watch the original “Hollywood Squares” on GSN when I was in middle school.
