Chuck Sutton:
On the Hollywood Squares, I wondered again yesterday what is actually the better strategy since you can lose a game on a wrong answer.
1) Trying to block and risk giving your opponent a win, or
2) Or try a square that if you get it right sets you up for a win when the opponent picks the square and gets it wrong.
Casey:
My first thought (I only caught one of the episodes) was why was a MG semi-regular relegated to just playing Hollywood Squares?

They rotated the celebrities on a day-by-day basis. Even if you stacked a week full of MG regulars, each one would have to take at least one breather day only doing HS. I only caught the last episode last night, if someone who caught all four could run stats on who did just HS on a day-by-day basis for the week it'll be interesting to see if there were any trends.
