CBS continues its promotional push for Hollywood Squares. After giving the reboot a special airing behind the AFC Divisional Playoff Game between Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills, the network is now putting the game show in its natural habitat — daytime — for a limited run.
Encore episodes will air Mon Jan. 27 – Friday Jan. 31 at 2 PM ET, 1 PM CT/PT. On most stations, Hollywood Squares will temporarily replace repeats of another CBS game show, The Price Is Right whose originals run earlier in the day.
The majority of Hollywood Squares incarnations over the past six decades have aired in daytime syndication. The CBS revival also stars a current daytime syndication star, Drew Barrymore, who has a talk show on the CBS stations.
Barrymore is the center square on the revival, hosted by Nate Burleson, co-host of CBS Mornings and NFL analyst.

CBS also has been tinkering with Hollywood Squares‘ primetime run, moving the show from 10 PM to 8 PM Wednesdays when it moves to the night next week.
Originally slated to premiere Jan. 9, Hollywood Squares‘ debut was pushed by a week due to the devastation from the L.A. wildfires.
