Drew Barrymore was set to take center square on the Hollywood Squares reboot premiere tonight, Thursday, Jan. 9. CBS has made a last-minute change to the schedule.
Due to the fires that are raging across Los Angeles right now, CBS has decided to change up the schedule a little. The Hollywood Squares reboot will no longer premiere tonight. We’ll get a full night of reruns instead.
Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage and Ghosts will get an extra hour of reruns tonight. We’ll have two hours of the two comedies, and then we’ll have a rerun of Matlock, as planned.
When will the Hollywood Squares reboot now premiere on CBS?
The premiere of Hollywood Squares will now air on Thursday, Jan. 16. That’s next Thursday. It was already set to be a night of reruns anyway, so it doesn’t disrupt the other shows. It’s an understandable reason for the postponement of the episode with everything going on in Los Angeles right now.
Thousands of people are evacuating their homes, with multiple people already reporting the losses of their homes. Celebrities such as Leighton Meester and Anna Ferris have already shared that they have lost their homes, and others like Mark Hammil and Ben Affleck have evacuated, but have no idea what’s happened to their homes.
Hollywood Squares will still move to Wednesdays
After the initial premiere of the series, Hollywood Squares will move to Wednesday nights. CBS will bring us a Game Night, starting with The Price Is Right at Night, moving into Raid the Cage, and then ending with Hollywood Squares.
Drew Barrymore will take the center square in the series, with Nate Burleson hosting the series. The show will move to Wednesdays starting Wednesday, Jan. 29. This sets up a return to the usual Thursday night lineup, which is Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, Ghosts, Matlock, and Elsbeth.
