What happens
Storybook Squares is an American game show. It is a spin-off of Hollywood Squares. The series featured celebrities dressed up as famous people and characters from history and various forms of media. Peter Marshall served as host of these episodes. The panelists were introduced by "The Guardian of the Gate", who announced their characters' presence by reading their names from a scroll. The Guardian was played by regular Hollywood Squares announcer Kenny Williams, and the character was similar to his "Town Crier" character from Video Village. The series ran on NBC on Saturday mornings from January 4 to April 19, 1969, with repeats airing until August 30. The concept was revived during the 1976-1977 season as a series of special theme weeks on the daytime Hollywood Squares. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
