If you remember the Original Hollywood Squares and its comics, this may bring a tear to your eyes.

These great questions and answers are from the days when Hollywood Squares game show responses were spontaneous and clever, not scripted and (often) dull, as they are now.

Peter Marshall was the host asking the questions, of course. Enjoy !
