Vincent Price was horribly terrifying. He was absolutely hilarious. He was a perfect gentleman. He was an individual unmatched by anyone before him or since. He TRULY was a ONE and ONLY!
@@spinandmarty Yes, I’ve read an article some years back on the British actor, David Warner, & he Is a big fan of Vincent Price. David said he met him at a dinner party. He said Vincent was a very nice man & they discussed cooking.
All of the commercials about washing cooking and cleaning ugh that was the 70s my mom had none of those special things just 5 kids once my dad brought home a avocado green dish washer a I believe a refrigerator where he got those things and back then we didn't ask I do know that my mom was,so happy for once in her life 😊 😊😊😊
Loved that show made me laugh !! I loved Paul Lynde have not seen the video yet but have seen almost every eposode I stayed home from school so much from bullying so saw almost every show even grade Jr High High School !! As young adult loved it too !! Loved Paul Lynde s humor love humor !!
I don’t know how I found this video but I’m glad I did. Your grandma was so precious. You can tell she was a sweet soul. I was 9 when this was on. When I get down or depressed I watch these old shows and it brings me to a happier time. Thanks for posting.
The Peter Marshall Hollywood Squares doesn't get better than that. I watched all the others: HS paired with Match Game, the John Davidson, and Berger what's his face versions. None have the magic than the original which is the real deal.
To get applause from the Esteemed Vincent Price, Your Grandmother was truly a brilliant, Vibrant, and amazing individual. I wish I could have met her! She seems to have the kind of energy that would brighten anyone's day.
Loved this game as a child and teenager during late 1960s through 1970s. The only two decades of my life when I knew most of the current stars. Vincent Price was handsome. Always liked his movies.
Your grandma reminds me of my grandma (rest her soul). Her third day on 'Squares....what a haul...wins the Secret Square and then hits $5000 cash. She had the stars wrapped around her finger. And that Dicker and Dicker fur jacket...a near must wear in Buffalo...where Squares was seen on WGR-TV (Now WGRZ) channel 2.
My great grandmother was born on 1901 and lived to 1998. They were an amazing generation that are no longer with us sadly. Great video! I loved Hollywood Squares!
this was such a super nice show. The grandmother was a lovely and angelic lady, and it was so good to see everyone helping her out as much as they could. I had a grandmother just like her, and mine lived to be ninety-seven years old. God bless them both in heaven.
She reminded me of my Nona fun loving and sweet personality so cool you have good memories and of this moment of her as a contestant on Hollywood Squares ❤️
What a charming woman! Thank you so much for sharing and bringing back memories of better days! I'm sorry to say we'll never see television like that again.
Thanks for posting this. I hope your grandmother got to keep most of her winnings after paying taxes. It's much harder to keep merchandise when you have to sell a lot of it for tax purposes. I loved watching this as a kid, but it was a lot harder to find and not carried on as many NBC stations after NBC moved it out of its original timeslot of 11:30 ET/10:30 CT, where it spent almost its first 10 years on NBC Daytime.
Makes me feel 10 again and home from school for whatever reason. Our household always loved game shows, and my girl scout leader had that trans am in baby blue....
True. It was actually an affiliate for Calgary Canada where my dad taped it. Not sure if they still do get Spokane channels but that's where they got their US channels. As for my grandma, she grew up in Buffalo but was living in Toronto for the last 50 or 60 years of her life. I guess since it was made for US audiences they wanted to have her be "from" Buffalo.
I noticed the LITTLE WOMEN promo listed a MTZ airtime of 9 PM. I guess a bit of the Spokane tv market ran into parts of Idaho SE of there that are in Mountain Time.
Calgary still receives Spokane TV stations on Shaw. Only KSPS (PBS) is the only Spokane station available on Telus where everything else comes from Seattle.
59:37 The show got the James Bond martini question wrong. Peter Marshall said, "stirred slightly, and not shaken", but it was always "a vodka martini, shaken, not stirred".
Well I just got finished watching The Price Is Right million dollar spectacular--the last one with the late Bob Barker from 2007!!--Now I,m looking at Classic daytime Hollywood Squares with Peter Marshall.
I watched a man today walk around his wife on the passenger side and NOT open the door... I thought what a schmuck... half a second to make his woman feel like a lady....
@@Barbe No disagree, it's more like the boys father's and other role models have not taught them manners & how to treat the present and future mothers (imo)
By the Hollywood Squares is supposed to come back to tv next year in 2025!!--I hope the producers/writers & whoever will watch ALL CLIPS FROM PETER MARSHALL JOHN DAVIDSON AND TOM BERGERON,S SHOWS!!--INCLUDING THESE CLIPS OF MS.ANITA GENISE,S BIG MOMENT ON THE ORIGINAL HOLLYWOOD SQUARES!! ONCE AGAIN RIP!! ANITA GENISE(1900-1995) THE WORLD LOVES & MISSES YOU!!❤🎉😊
At 59:30, Hollywood Squares did it again. They turned the question/answer around, and had it wrong. James Bond liked his martinis shaken, not stirred. It's surprising how many times they did this over the years.
Can you add a little backstory on how you guys were able to tape this when it aired as VCR’s were very expensive (I’m sure the prize money didn’t hurt) but the fact that you have this as it aired is awesome! The ads are fantastic and your grandmother was a really good player. This must’ve made for hours of stories when she got home from these tapings.
Wonderful show especially from a family member. Thank you so much for posting this video. Loved the old commercials as well. By the way what happened with that beautiful coat?
AS A LIFETIME FAN OF CLASSIC HOLLYWOOD SQUARES WITH PETER MARSHALL--I.M GLAD A FEW FROM THE DAYTIME SHOW HAD BEEN SAVED!! SADLY MOST OF THEM HAVE BEEN DESTROYED!! ESPECIALLY THIS ONE WITH CONTESTANT ANITA GENISE(1900-1995).

MY PRAYERS GO TO THE MASTER OF THE SQUARES PETER MARSHALL AT 97 YEARS OF AGE!!
He was plastered throughout the 1970's. If you think he was weird HERE, then you haven't seen ANYTHING yet!! There is an episode of 'The Gong Show' on youtube in which he is drunk, and it shows.
I just got finished watching an old 1977 episode of The Electric Company!! It,s too bad they never made The Electric Company Squares with Morgan Freeman as Easy Reader Hattie Winston as Valerie the librarian-Jimmy Boyd as J.Arthur Crank-Skip Hinnett as Fargo North Decoder Judy Grubart as Jennifer of the jungle Rita Moreno as Otto the angry director Luis Avalos as Pedro with regulars Rose Marie and Paul Lynde in the center square.
Paul's hilarious reaction to the answer (at 1:02:44) about a nun's preferred gift - Priceless 🤣 Possibly the most honest laugh Paul did in the entire series' run.
@@jamessarantis7796 omg that’s awesome!! This was a perfect time, I could rattle off so many things that remind me of this show and I’m sure when I get to Heaven, after I greet my late husband and other family members, I’ll meet your grandma and say, “your grandson said I should see you for spaghetti and meatballs.💗😉
Charlene Templeton was very pretty. Loved her style. Bernadette Peters is a classic beauty too. Blondes back then really were beautiful. Most of them nowadays are fake. :(
1:20 - Technically this question applied to the end of America's involvement in the Second World War, even though the combat of the war ended one year earlier.
@@MsJanetLouise -It basically means F-Off. A lot of people on here complaining about Paul Williams, but Frankie is behaving as if he's being forced to appear on the show against his will.
It was "Saturday Night Fever" that was originally rated R and recut to be PG early in 1979. I saw "Grease" when it came out summer 1978, and it was PG then, and I remember seeing the "G" rating displayed in the theater at some point, maybe a trailer for a different movie.
NBC Daytime - In two weeks from that week, staring Monday, March 5, 1979, after cancelling "Jeopardy!", the five-month ill-fated daytime version, schedule: MORNING 9:00 am P/M/C; 10:00 am E Card Sharks (g) 9:30 am P/M/C/; 10:30 am E All-Star Secrets (g) 10:00 am P/M/C; 11:00 am E (New) High Rollers (g) [Mon. March 19, 1979, the words "The New" were eliminated from this title.] 10:30 am P/M/C; 11:30 am E Wheel of Fortune (g) 11:00 am P/M/C; 12:00 noon E *Password Plus (g) 11:30 am P/M/C; 12:30 pm E *Hollywood Squares (g) AFTERNOON 12:00 noon P/M/C; 1:00 pm E *Days of our Lives (so) 1:00 1:00 pm P/M/C; 2:00 pm E *Doctors (so) 1:30 pm P/M/C; 2:30 pm E *Another World (so) 1:30
From what I've seen in Mountain Time Zone TV Guides, they usually carried game shows at the same time as Eastern & Central Time Zones, so the MTZ schedule would start at 8 AM MT or tape that hour & show it later if a morning show like TODAY or GOOD MORNING AMERICA was carried 7 - 9 AM MT, same local time as ET & CT.
It’s now known that unfortunately when Paul Williams was doing these shows that he was obviously using heavily. In the documentary I had seen about a year ago he doesn’t even watch these because it’s too hurtful for him knowing that he was using at the time. Knowing that it’s also really easy to spot.
