The revival of Storybook Squares began in the summer of '76 on Hollywood Squares. The gameplay format had change to allow three generations of families to play the game.
This time around, the rules were bent to allow for William Shatner to reprise as Captain James T. Kirk (Star Trek), while the rest of the panel were in costume as various characters such as:
John Byner as the Mad Hatter (Alice in Wonderland). Byner paid homage to Disney's adaptation of the Lewis Carroll classic by impersonating Ed Wynn, who voiced the Hatter in the movie.
Bonnie Franklin (One Day At a Time) as Peter Pan.
Rip Taylor as Rip Van Winkle.
Roddy McDowell as Sherlock Holmes.
Doc Severinson (The Tonight Show) as the Angel Gabriel.
Julie McWhirter (fresh from The Rich Little Show) reworked the Family Hour Fairy into the Good Fairy.
Joan Rivers as Little Red Riding Hood.
Charo as Lady Godiva.
Paul Lynde missed this week of tapings due to other commitments, hence Byner occupying the center square.
