All-Star Blitz | Premiere, pt. 1

April 8th, 1985, the day we are introduced to a Hollywood Squares spin-off, All-Star Blitz with Peter Marshall! Playing a game to unveil a well-known phrase or common expression, all the while matching celebrities' answers, the old-fashioned Hollywood Squares way. Celebrities are Leslie Uggams, John Byner, Abby Dalton, and Robert Mandan. Full first game is played here

*Leslie Uggams, a featured celebrity on this airdate, was the co-host of Fantasy in 1982, which Peter Marshall coincedentally hosted after Hollywood Squares was cancelled*

NOTE: I'm having uploading issues, so part 2 may be a while. Stay tuned

It's Hollywood Squares, meets Battlestars, meets Baffle.

"All Star Blitz" replaced "Trivia Trap" on ABC's Daytime Schedule.

i can't believe he didn't know what "new york new york" meant, (if he did i assume he would've shown a reaction)
