The big three Paul Lynde, Wally Cox and Charley Weaver. This is when the show was at it's peak. By 1975 it's only Paul Lynde trying to carry the show because Cox and Weaver both died unexpectedly.
I miss the music as they describe the secret square prizes. But I was glad to see Buddy Hackett NOT AS obnoxious as he usually is. And FOUR lady stars! I don't understand why they didn't have four ladies every episode
Back in the 70's stars were more owned. They were on other shows that were horrible for them in terms of public perception. The only way a star would do it now is if it were for charity and they were with people of equal stardom.
Too bad I wasn't a teen or a 20 something young man in the 60s(born in 1969),and also that vcrs weren't available.I would be taping ALL versions(until 1981).What a library of videotapes I'd have.After editing,I would still have a bunch of episodes.
All on the same show: Edith Bunker, Sally Rogers, Felix Unger, Shirley Partridge, Uncle Arthur and Underdog. Charley Weaver is the grandfather of all the Arquettes...including David and Rosanna.

They make these Secret Square questions so darn difficult and stars are supposed to help contestants win these,not trick them and cause them to lose games or prizes in these.
A Cop stops a car the driver is told his tail lights are out.the driver gets very upset.the cop says calm down its not that big of a infraction.the drivers replies maybe not to you but when i lost the trailer back their my wife and four kids were in it.Ronald Reagan.
@@hotsickle - In the early years of the NBC "Squares," Gene Rayburn was a frequent "square." Only made two appearances after the '70's "Match Game" got started - one in Fall 1973, the other in 1980. Charles Nelson Reilly and Fannie Flagg were the only regular "regulars" on "MG" - that I know of - to have also done the Marshall "Squares" (counting both the NBC daytime and syndicated nighttime versions), though a few celebs were on both. (One "MG" regular who, I noticed, was never on the "Squares" was Richard Dawson - unless any shows he did were wiped and there is no record, and if he were on it would have only been in the late '60's when he was on "Hogan's Heroes." Nor was Brett Somers a "square.")
Great to see an episode with Charlie Weaver, Wally Cox, Paul Lynde and Rose Marie all there.
Four.
I remember this show so often. I loved it everyday. And Paul Lynde in the center.
Seven out of the Nine “Hollywood Squares” from this 1972 episode are dead. Only Shirley Jones, Sandy Duncan, and The Master, Peter Marshall remain.
thanks for reminding us of that delightful tid-bit of knowledge
Shirley jones
@@alysononoahu8702 The Partridge Family,The Odd Couple and All In The Family were still on the air when this aired.
Wally Cox died at age 48 a few months after this aired. Charlie Weaver passed away the following year…😪
I cannot look at Shirley Jones the same after her book about the threesome she participated in. Some things, you need to keep to yourself.

Four if you count Rose Marie. And she and Peter Marshall were the only ones to be on both the first NBC "Squares" in 1966, and the last in 1980.
I always liked it! 😀
Wally was only 48. I loved his style of humor. ❤
When NBC was still giving tours in its Burbank CA location,I saw The Hollywood Squares set,and the game board was 17" tall!
Looks bigger!
@@rgrndu - Didn't 'georgemaster4225' mean 17' tall? 17" sounds like something out of Spinal Tap.
Panel: Wally Cox, Rose Marie, Buddy Hackett, Shirley Jones, Paul Lynde (center square), Jean Stapleton, Charley Weaver, Sandy Duncan & Tony Randall.

Paul Lynde Wally Cox Charley Weaver ,made me laugh when I was depressed even now it does the same thing ! I forget my troubles !
Want to chat?
Man I was thirteen in ‘72 and had a huge crush on Sandy Duncan,,😍
I was 95 pounds in '72 & had a huge crush on Orange Crush...
The NBC run was the only version that was reduced.
Tysons' Corner still had the birds and the fountains when this happened,
Buddy seemed to be laughing too hard for some reason.
Trying to get air time.
Narcissistic
Sandy Duncan was hotter than I remembered, LOL
Can you imagine famous people bothering to go on game shows now a days? Their heads are too big, imo..
especially Mr. Potato-Head

Hi @pannoni 8 - thanks for sharing these videos. Do you have any of The Hollywood Squares episodes from 1975 or 1977 featuring Steve Martin? Thanks!
I wonder if the Vega is still running 😆
Mabe by some miracle or curse lol.
After 50 years? Hardly.

@@cats0182my guess is that's in the junkyard as "spare parts".
Taster's Choice looks, smells and tastes like fresh-ground coffee? In what universe?
O love Hollywood Squares

I wonder if people who won Vega from this show trade that off for better car.
IKR!! Everyone that I knew that had a Vega absolutely hated it ,…also they sold their Vega and bought a Datsun ,..LOL!😅
@ 8:39, FREDDY Hackett!??
I love Hollywood squares. But when Buddy Hackett is on, I'm out
Shirley was cute!
When did they start playing the HS theme behind the fee plugs?
Certainly by 1975 . . . must've started after either Wally Cox or Charley Weaver died . . .
Chewy bacon is more nutritious bc it has more saturated fat 😜
Trick question bacon has no nutritional value
@@allanroche8053 Of course it does. What do you think it's made of, water and air?
Chevy Vega equals one of GM's biggest mistakes.
For some reason that host (Peter Marshall) looks a lot like Tom Brady.
It's the hair.
Or Gene Rayburns Siamese twin...

I see dead people...
Why do they keep calling on Buddy Hackett on all shows? So many better people barely called on, in my opinion...
They finally called on Shirley Jones and Jean Stapleton.

Tony Randall is so stiff in this show .
his date was thankful that night...
He's just trying to help people win stuff.
A lot of people are not good on this show. Paul was the perfect balance of funny, expedient, and answers the question.
Anyone wanna win an encyclopedia now? Didn't think so
I'd love encyclopedias - reminds me of better times...
No internet back then or maybe even a library.
We had those exact encyclopedias so yes, I’d love to win some.
I still have my set of World Books that I got in the late '50s. Haven't looked at them in many decades.
I still have my set... somewhere. All the information is obsolete now.
