| Hollywood Squares |
Come on down! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, January 7!
Our Top Pick tonight is the premiere of Hollywood Squares (CBS, 8 p.m. / Paramount+, Thursday). Back for season 2, this latest iteration puts Drew Barrymore in the center square and is hosted by Nate Burleson. Tonight's season premiere includes [*checks notes*] Glenn Close. While it can be... amusing, I think it (and probably every other hourlong broadcast game show) would be better in a half-hour slot.
Elsewhere, Ms. Pat returns, Bruce Springsteen performs Nebraska, Marcello Hernández is a Boy, Abbott moves into a mall, eating raw meat is an Addition, Harlan Coben concocts a Final Twist, a Fire makes things personal, A&E is all about the Law, and CNBC peaks at Netflix's Playbook.
