From May 3rd, 2004 to May 7th, 2004,<ref>[https://thetvdb.com/series/the-hollywood-squares/episodes/272743 The TVdatabase page of when "It Just Ain't Right" first aired.] Retrieved 25 Jul '20</ref> the game show ''Hollywood Squares'' had a contest week called "It Just Ain't Right". It plays like a spot the difference for viewers to tell seven things that feel out of place in that week's episodes than a regular episode of ''Hollywood Squares'' from that time. It was also the only week of episodes with a home viewer contest attached to it and was also the last unique-themed week before the show's cancellation on May 31st, 2004. Although, like most episodes from this version of ''Hollywood Squares'' have turned up online, the five episodes from that week '''hadn't turned up in the years since they last aired'''.

YouTube user thewhammy83 uploaded the first three episodes from that week on April 1st, 2010 and stated in the description of the third part of the Wednesday episode that due to bad reception at the time, he was only able to record the last ten minutes of the Thursday episode and he doesn't have the Friday episode. Despite saying he has the last ten minutes of the Thursday episode, he did not upload it because he says "which seems unfair to just put up"<ref>https://youtu.be/9E__6sT1oLE</ref>. These episodes have never been reran on Game Show Network and the missing episodes have not turned up in any private collections. It's unknown who else has the last two episodes in their entirety and for years, they remained the only episodes from this incarnation of ''Hollywood Squares'' to have not resurfaced in full anywhere.

On June 30th, 2023, it was announced that this version of the show would get its own channel on Pluto TV<ref>https://twitter.com/PlutoTV/status/1678838548382744577</ref>. The channel went live on July 11th<ref>https://twitter.com/TVMoJoe/status/1678515081527824385</ref> and episodes from its final two seasons were surprisingly shown first. The Friday episode would eventually be aired on the channel on July 12th. The show was added to the "On-Demand" section on July 17th and the Thursday episode was among the episodes added.
