Game show legend Wink Martindale has acquired a master tape of a Christmas Eve episode of Hollywood Squares from the 1st season of the John Davidson era. Davidson is joined by son John, Jr. as co-host, and our panel includes children's television legends Don "Mr. Wizard" Herbert and Shari Lewis, the latter with her newest puppet, Green Belle, plus David Naughton (My Sister Sam), Brenda Vaccaro (who'd later work on Johnny Bravo), NFL legend Dick Butkus, Charlotte Rae (The Facts of Life), Roseanne Barr, Jackie Mason, and a reunion of Happy Days co-stars Tom Bosley and Marion Ross, who were appearing in a production of "Arsenic & Old Lace" while Bosley was appearing at the time on Murder, She Wrote.
Herbert was back in business with Mr. Wizard's World on Nickelodeon at that time.
Rating: A.
