 Frank Caliendo (impersonating Don Pardo): Kevin Kolsen… James Greek… and Kourtney Wilson…  Frank Caliendo (impersonating Don Pardo): If your first three picks match,  Frank Caliendo (impersonating Don Pardo): you will win a double dollar bonus  Frank Caliendo (impersonating Don Pardo): and possibly an added cash bonus  Frank Caliendo (impersonating Don Pardo): which could make one match worth as much as…   Frank Caliendo (impersonating Don Pardo): Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars in cash!  Frank Caliendo (impersonating Don Pardo): It's Three On A Match! Frank Caliendo (impersonating Don Pardo): And now, from the Bill Cullen Theatre here in Rockefeller Center, in the heart of The Big Apple… here is your host and waiter for this afternoon... Bill McDee! (applause)  By golly that's me! (knocking on the wall behind me) Greetings and warm salutations once again friends and viewers. This is Three on a Match, the game where uncovering three of a kind translates into big bucks for our contestants. We've had the same set of contestants for a while now, some times games last a few days around here. We are very glad to meet them and greet them once again. Champion Kevin Kolsen, and his two challengers James Greek and Kourtney Wilson!  (applause) It takes three matches to win a game and to become or remain the champion. Right now Kevin, with one game win to his credit, still has 1 match made thus far, in his quest to be the first to three. He is back with a nice cash total of $9,550. (applause) James, nothing so far in money or matches thus far, but anything can still happen so hang in there, and Kourtney is in the best shape right now with 2 matches and $2,400 in winnings. We've done away with the smaller money amounts. Now, whenever a player completes his or her second question contract, they get to go to the big board to try to make Three on a Match. The number of picks that player will receive will depend on how many questions they have correctly answered. 6 right equals 7 picks, 7 right equals 8 picks and 8 right equals 9 picks from the big board. And now, each and every time a player goes to the matching board, he or she could win a $5,000 bonus. We'll explain that when the time comes. Also we have some new bonus cards that will be in play where contestants can earn additional front game cash, and also a new mini-game which I hope we'll get to play today, especially since it honors the first host of this program, Mr. Bill Cullen. As you may recall a couple of episodes ago, James got 3 questions right in the category of STATUES. In fact he got the first three questions correct, thus not requiring me to ask the fourth. However, to give him a chance to earn a fourth green light, and thus an extra pick of the matching board if he gets back to it, I will now ask James that last True or False question on Statues. James...for an extra green light and a possible extra pick at the matching board if you get there...answer this correctly. The so-called "Bombed Mary" statue, of which only her head and torso remain, can be found in the city of Hiroshima. |

And the code is...  Eight?!?!?! Seriously?!?! We spent money on a THREE digit read out and best we can come up with is an 8? (Chuckling) Let's see what our contestants came up with...  Kourtney, you were first. Which category appeals most to you? At least one category will always have a bonus attached to it. |

 No bonus card there, however, get three out of four right for your first completed contract. Go four for four and that will earn you one extra pick from the matching board. To save some time, all four questions will be presented at once now. Please answer either "True" or "False" to each of the following. Answers due no later than 6:30am EST on Tuesday, January 17th.  |

Red question is False. Green question is True. Yellow question is actually True too, so that answer is incorrect. If the blue question is true, you'll have your first contract. And the answer is... TRUE! (applause)  3 out of 4 completes one contract now for you Kourtney. Here comes a new category players...  FIRST LADIES is added, a very topical subject with this week's upcoming inauguration. Players please submit your codes to me privately, higher than 0 but lower than 101. |

And what's the actual code this time?  (Chuckling in the audience). Yeah, three digit adaptation (Chuckling) Let's see who is closest...  Wow! And for the second time in two days, a tie for who is closest between James and Kourtney. Which player did so faster?  James, it was you! Which category will it be? |

 So far today, those bonus cards are eluding our contestants. James, get three out of four correct and you'll have completed your second contract and earn a trip to the matching board.  |

Andrew Jackson's wife Rachel died before his inauguration. James answered true, and true is correct! (applause) 1 for 1. Martha Washington was the first First Lady to live in The White House. James, you answered false and false is... Correct! (applause) 2 out of 2 so far. Abagail Adams was the first. George is the only U.S. President to never have lived in the White House. Get this next question correct James and you will win the contract and get to go to the matching board. Jacqueline Kennedy's maiden name was Bouvier. Your answer is true, and it is... TRUE! (applause)  Get this last question right and you will have 9 picks from the board, otherwise, you'll still have 8 which is pretty good. At age 94, former First Lady Nancy Reagan was the oldest former First Lady. And that is... False I'm afraid.  (a few moans from the audience)....Actually Bess Truman lived to be 97! But you still did fine James, 7 green lights equals 8 picks in this case...  I will tell you this time the category of the symbols hidden on our board are suits of cards, namely Hearts, Clubs, Diamonds and Spades. Before you begin selecting boxes, I need you to select one of those four suits. And if your first three picks happen to match what you choose James, not only will you win double the cash award attached to the last box you select, but you will win a $5,000 bonus! Audience (canned NBC reaction) Which suit do you select James? And then if you wish, you can select a box by indicating which column, 20, 30 or 40 along with the color, red, green, yellow or blue. |

 Thank you James. Now let's hope 40 on the Blue is a Heart! (flip)  (a few groans) Well the $5,000 bonus is out of play, however, if you can find 2 more clubs in your next two picks, it will still mean a double dollar bonus. Where to next James? |

30 on the Yellow... (flip)  (gasps) Wow, if there is a Club in the 20 column, and if you select it right now, you'll win double the dollar amount attached to that and you'll have your first match of this game James. Which box next? |

40 on the Red... (flip)  (groans in the audience) Well now that may not necessarily be bad news. We now know that there HAS to be a club in the 20 column somewhere, since the No Match card is in the 40. You still have 4 picks, including 2 more available to you in the 20 column James. Up to you how you want to proceed. Where to next? |

Here comes 20 on the Blue, for a possible match... (flip)  That's got it! (applause) And what money card is attached to that? (flip)  $800! (applause)  Kevin still with 1 match, 1 win and a total of $9,550. James now with 1 match and $800, Kourtney with 2 matches, $2,400 and one contract completed already, needing just one more to go back to the board again and possibly become our new champion.  We'll see how this match plays out, right after these few words of interest. |

 (applause) We have a good game going here. If Kourtney completes one more contract, he could become our new champion, and the next match he goes for could be worth as much as $25,000! (NBC Canned "Whoa") Let's load in a new category...  Newscasters is the new category, to go along with In the month of...and the planets Players submit your codes to me privately at this time. Higher than 0 but lower than 101 please. And remember every time we have at least one bonus card hidden on our category board, sometimes as many as many as two! |

In the month of...  (ding) Oh boy! This is a new mini game which you will get to play if you get three out of four questions right in this category. Here are the four questions for you Kourtney. Johnny Carson's debut as host of "The Tonight Show" took place in the month of January. Just as the United States did, the Bahamas gained their independence after 250 years as a British Crown Colony in the month of July. National Arbor Day in the United States is celebrated in April. Hawaii became the 50th state in May 1959. |

Carson's debut took place on October 1, 1962, so false is correct! 1 for 1... The Bahamas gained their independence in 1973 in the month of...July, correct again! 2 for 2! Arbor Day occurs in April! 3 for 3. You've got the contract, and earned the right to play the Buried Treasure game. For another 4 picks total from the big board when you go for your match and the win.... Hawaii became the 50th state in....AUGUST! Very well done Kourtney! (applause)  You'll have 8 picks from the big board, but first, a new feature, the BURIED TREASURE game, and this honors Bill Cullen...  Bill was from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and this game features pirates, which is the name of Pittsburgh's pro baseball team. Kourtney, hidden behind three of the boxes are treasure chests, one in each column. Behind three boxes are pirates, again one in each column. The other boxes have other pirate related themes, two per column. You'll keep picking until you uncover 3 pirates, in which case we'll pay you $100 for every pair you match, but uncover 3 treasure chests first and win $1,000. As before, a maximum of three boxes per column, also, if you hit a pirate in one column, you have to select a box from another column immediately. Good luck as you go for $1,000 in buried treasure Kourtney, which box first? |
