The Hollywood Squares will make a comeback. CBS revealed on Thursday that it had renewed the popular revival series for a second season, just before the show’s Season 1 finale.
In its debut season, the remake has garnered strong viewership. Based on its season-to-date live plus 7 average, it is projected to reach 5.4 million viewers during live plus 35 days of multi-platform viewing.
It was picked up today along with the CBS comedies Ghosts, which was given a two-season renewal, and Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, which was renewed for Season 2, as well as the dramas Tracker, Fire Country, Elsbeth, NCIS, NCIS: Origins, and NCIS: Sydney.
Every edition of the game show, which is hosted by NFL analyst and CBS Mornings co-host Nate Burleson, features Drew Barrymore in the center square with celebrity guests.
Jay Leno, Whitney Cummings, Pete Holmes, Chaka Khan, Thomas Lennon, Nelly, Patton Oswalt, Nicole Byer, Drew Carey, Jeff Dunham, Max Greenfield, Lil Rel Howery, Rita Moreno, and JB Smoove were all on the first season lineup.
Hollywood Squares not only airs on CBS but also streams on Paramount+ (live and on demand for Showtime members if they have Paramount+, or on demand for Paramount+ Essential customers the day after the program airs).
Jesse Collins for Jesse Collins Entertainment and Drew Barrymore for Flower Films are the producers of Hollywood Squares.
In the 1960s, NBC broadcast the first episode. The full series had its network debut in 1966 after piloting in 1965.
