Thanks for sharing this wonderful behind the scenes @ Hollywood Squares @ Radio City Music Hall in NYC. 7:56 that gentleman to Shadoe Steven's left is that Wheel of Fortune's/Jeopardy's Executive Producer Harry Friedman? He kinda looks like him.
I think the man introducing John Davidson looks like legendary NY radio DJ Scott Shannon, who I think was at Z100 at the time...now he's at CBS-FM 101.1
This was from just before the very first "New York Hollywood Squares" episode, as the brand-new Lincoln Continental is covered up. I also notice when the stars made their entrance, their respective Square flashes as if they were being picked.
We knew you had some rarities, Winker, but THIS is incredible. Thank you for sharing.
Great to get a peek at the manual scoreboard in the wings of the stage with the big arrow to remind everyone who's turn it is. What a contraption.
Love the in-house piano music for the stars as well as the choir sounding theme for the NY shows. Thanks for the clip!
Me too! I wish they recorded that.

Yes Sir!! That’s Scott Shannon!
Scott Shannon doing the audience warm-up!
Speaking of shows that need to come back...
Hip Hop Squares on Vh1 is a spin off of The Hollywood Squares.
I wish Tom Bergeron would host it again too.

Great googily moogily, Wink! A New York state of mind indeed!
Thanks Wink
Was this on WABC at the time when these episodes were filmed? I know it moved to WPIX at some point...
It was on WABC-TV Channel 7 weeknights at 7:30pm for the first two seasons before moving to WPIX Channel 11 for the final.
