Creepy847 0 Posted August 20, 2004 If you remember the original Hollywood Squares and its comics, this will bring a tear to your eyes.

navychief 1 Posted August 20, 2004 I remember the original Hollwood Squares very well. Paul Lynde was one the funniest comedians of all time. He could say anything and make it funny, simply from the way he spoke. The man was a genius of comedy. Navy Chief Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

firehawkordy 34 Posted August 20, 2004 I remember watching Hollywood Squares with my grandfather. It seems that you could get away with more on T.V. back then. The other show that would push the edge of good taste was Match Game. When I see those two shows I have good memories growing up and can still see my grandfather in his chair enjoying life.
