    • Quotes

      Tom Bergeron: [It is the end of the main game of the show, and it is time count the number of squares each contestant earned in this round] Let's count up our squares. Now Brianna, you have two which gives you a thousand dollars and our thanks for being here on Hollywood Squares.

      [shakes hands as audience applauds skeptically and Whoopi Goldberg has a puzzled look on her face, as Brianna's podium shows that she has won another thousand dollars from a previous game]

      Tom Bergeron: You look stunned!

      [turns to other contestant]

      Tom Bergeron: Now Alan, you've added three squares to your total, that gives you...

      [off-stage crew begins yelling 'hold it!' and confusion ensues before Bergeron realizes his mistake]

      Tom Bergeron: Oh she won!

      [bursts into laughter as audience and panelists laugh and applaud]

      Tom Bergeron: I guess that Emmy nomination's shot to shit right now!

    Featured review

    Truly one of the worst game shows ever

    Contrived jokes, poor acting, and some of the biggest morons as game contestants, this show is a perfect example of how NOT to make a game show. It is not so much a game show as a thinly disguised PR machine for both celebrity has-beens that are desperately trying to revive their career and minor celebrities that are still willing to debase themselves and lose whatever remaining shreds of human dignity they have.
