Five-time “Survivor” legend Boston Rob Mariano will return to television screens nationwide tonight (Wednesday, March 11) on an all new episode of “Hollywood Squares” on CBS.
The “Survivor: Redemption Island” champion, who recently padded out his fan base with appearances on “The Traitors” and “Deal or No Deal Island,” will appear on the star-studded trivia game show alongside resident comedians Tiffany Haddish and Pete Homles, and, as always, Drew Barrymore in the Center Square.
How Does ‘Hollywood Squares’ Work?
CBSIn case you’ve never seen it, hosted by NFL analyst and “CBS Mornings” co-host Nate Burleson, “Hollywood Squares” is a hilarious game show that challenges its civilian contestants to compete in a three rounds of high-stakes tic-tac-toe.
Throughout the episode, Burleson will ask the competitors — and a panel of nine celebrity guests — a series of trivia questions. The star-studded panel will provide their answers, some of which may be correct, while others are witty falsities.
The contestants will then decide whether they agree or disagree with the celebs’ answers. If they’re right, they claim that star’s square. If they’re wrong, however, that square goes to their opponent.
CBSThe first contestant to correctly match three celebrities in a row (vertically, horizontally or diagonally), or to claim five of the nine total squares first, wins!
Wanna know what they’re playing for? Winners on “Hollywood Squares” — a reboot of the classic 1965 NBC game show of the same name — stand the chance at taking home up to $25,000, as well as other luxury prizes like international vacations awarded via the “Secret Square.”
