Trivia
Host Peter Marshall had said that most of the episodes were destroyed by NBC. But a Cable TV station found 3,500 episodes (while looking for the TV series Dark Shadows (1966)) and were sent to Game Show Network. Episodes began airing on April 15th, 2002.
Retired, reclusive actress Greta Garbo was such a big fan of the show she actually wrote a fan letter to Paul Lynde in care of the show's taping location at NBC Burbank.
Peter Marshall was considering starring in the musical version of "Breakfast At Tiffany's" (1966), when approached to host The Hollywood Squares (1965). The musical was an ultimate failure, closing before reaching Broadway.
