Also George Bush (played by Jim Morris) hosted the Hollywood Squares, and also John Davidson takes the squares and Ronald Reagan (played by Fred Travalena) hosted the show.
I loved how Shadoe Stevens used to always roar out John Davidson's name at the end of the intro! "JOOOOOOOOOOOHNNNNNNN DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVIIIIDSOOOOOOOONNNNNNNN!!!"
How fitting. "Ronald Reagan" hosting. Politics; you never know who's lying.

Switch the impersonator's names and you would be correct, It's Jim Morris as Reagan and Shecky Greene, not Travelena, as George Bush.

And if it's still on the air as of today.
Shadoe Stevens: And Here's Your Host, Barack Obama!!!!
(Applause as Barack Enters)
Barack: Thank You America, Thank You World and welcome to the Show!
and Barack will be played by Gerardo Puisseaux.

I miss this show when USA aired this-- when all the classic game shows aired back-to-back-to-back!

Weird for Mr. Morris to impersonate Reagan at the time of Bush Sr.'s inauguration, or is it?

Oh, While they're at it, have GSN have the rights to Rodeo Drive!

If they do that, viewers would know about Miss DuArt. Like that would ever happen, or can it?
