Anyone remember growing up and watching game shows with their grandparents and having a good time? It was a bonding moment, for this writer. For me, it was Jeopardy or Wheel of Fortune.
But I do remember watching reruns of Hollywood Squares and thinking that my Grandma had way too much time on her hands. Why? Because she remembered every answer to every question and she’d still find the most ridiculous things to laugh at.
And so hey, a reboot of the show kinda makes me excited. Also a little afraid of getting older.
While we have our issues with CBS (NCIS: Hawai’i should have never been cancelled), I won’t complain that they are rebooting the show with Drew Barrymore. The actress/talk show host will be the iconic center square.
If you aren’t familiar with the show, the basics are that it’s tic-tac-toe. The contestants are always questioning the validity of the celebrities answers. They guess if it’s right or wrong – and if they guess right, well, they win the square.
