The Hollywood Squares was a classic game show centered around a huge tic-tac-toe board. In each of the nine squares sat a star (or often, more than one), armed with bluffs and quips aplenty. The show made its debut on NBC's daytime schedule on October 17 - 21, 1966. Actor-Comedian Peter Marshall served as "The Master of The Hollywood Squares" acting both as straight man and an abettor in the fun. 2 contestants, including a returning champion competed in a best 2-out-of-3 match of Tic-Tac-Toe. The male contestant was "Mr. X" while the female was "Miss Circle" (the "O"). Many of the stars gave zany bluffs before coming up with their own answer; sometimes they also gave a funny explanation. It was up to the contestant to decide whether they would agree or disagree with the star. Ray appeared in at least 5 show sequences:
- February 21 - 27, 1972
- October 16 - 22, 1972
- April 12 - 18, 1976
- May 9 - 15, 1977
