Storybook Squares
Overview
Storybook Squares is a short-lived Saturday morning version of Hollywood Squares for children. The primary difference, apart from having children as contestants, was that it featured celebrities in costume as well-known fictional characters and some as historical figures. As with the adult version, Peter Marshall was host and Kenny Williams was announcer; Williams read the characters' names off a scroll as "The Guardian of the Gate", a role similar to his "Town Crier" on Video Village. The series originally ran on NBC from January 4 to April 19, 1969, with repeats airing until August 30.
This production, originally released in 1969, has captivated audiences with its unique storytelling. As a Scripted series, it brings a fresh perspective to the Kids genre, maintaining a strong viewer rating of 0.0 across its 1 season.
