Here are some interesting facts and body measurements you don’t want to miss about Marshall.
Marshall’s friend television actor and comedian Morey Amsterdam recommended him to fill in for Bert Parks (who emceed the pilot) as the host of the game shows The Hollywood Squares in 1966. Marshall didn’t want the job originally but took it to keep it away from rival comic Dan Rowan. He however figured that it would last 3 weeks, and he’d be back on Broadway. It lasted more than 16 years.
The Hollywood Squares had a long run-on daytime network TV and in syndication, making Marshall as familiar to viewers as the celebrities who appeared on the show. He was, however, a perfect foil for the wicked wit of such panelists as Amsterdam and his Dick Van Dyke Show castmate Rose Marie, Paul Lynde, Jan Murray, and Wally Cox. The show was canceled by the NBC network in 1980, but production continued in syndication into 1981.
He later returned to the new version of The Hollywood Squares as a panelist during a Game Show Week hosted by Tom Bergeron in 2002. He occupied the prestigious center square. Peter then took his old position at the podium to host while Bergeron was in the center square.
Marshall’s real name is Ralph Pierre LaCock. He was given his stage name by John Robert Powers. Powers had chosen the last name Marshall for his sister, but she opted to use another one and Peter adopted it early in his career and paired it with an anglicized version of his middle name.
