The center square will go to various celebrities on a rotating basis (for now anyways). The corny "I Love Hollywood" theme song is also scheduled to be scrapped, and Peter Marshall (HS host 1966-1981) is also scheduled to be a celebrity square sometime in October. Oh, no word yet on if the Stormy Sacks theme will be reinstated this fall--it should IMHO, after all if they kept Shadoe Stevens as announcer, they should keep the 80s theme song.
That's all for now--keep on postin'

Well, the theme song is now Teena Marie's "Square Biz", but I am going to try and persuade Fonzie to use the "Dilemma" theme if only for one week. I think it would be off the hook.
Oh, and this week is Game Show Week. Rod Roddy is the announcer this week, Carol Merrill is modeling the prizes and bumpers and Secret Square questions have featured Monty Hall and Bob Barker, among other. Celebrites included Jim Lange, Bob Eubanks, Wink Martindale, Jimmie Walker, and Match Game's Brett Sommers and Charles Nelson Reilly sharing a square. Center square is the only, the only, the master of the Hollywood Squares, Peter Marshall, who after 21 years hosted the show today!!!!
! Cool treat. Well, 8 years actually if you count the "East Hollywood Squares" sketches on "In Living Color". But this week has been the bomb!!! Go Fonzie!
