Hollywood Squares (2025)

The writers, like the censors, are mostly napping. The new version of “Squares” is neither offensive nor hilarious, but it can be entertaining.

This new version of Hollywood Squares isn’t far off from actually being a pretty good take on the original. There is room for funny lines and celebrity hijinks in each episode, as long as Barrymore and the rest of the producers find the right formula that takes advantage of their panels without grinding the gameplay to a halt.
