Hollywood Squares was an American game show from 1966 to 1981. It was basically a version of tic-tac-toe. Celebrities occupied the nine squares. The host, Peter Marshall, asked the stars questions and the contestants won the square by correctly judging the truth of their answers.

The stars themselves were a hodgepodge of beloved TV actors, (Florence Henderson, Barbara Eden, John Davidson), comedians, (Jonathan Winters, Foster Brooks, Joan Rivers), and cultural icons of the time, (Vincent Price, Charo, Paul Williams.) The questions were generally tuned to the celebrity’s persona; sexy/Charo, old/George Gobel, nerdy/Wally Cox, lonely/Rose Marie, young/Melissa Gilbert, gay/Paul Lynde, etc.

Here are a few of the best exchanges.
