(buzzer)That's too bad. You gave us the name of the musical, but we were looking for the character. Professor Harold Hill. That'll drop you down to $35. Sorry about that.
Patseen: $37
William: $35
Marc: $35
Fame Game time once again, and Patseen has a $2 lead. We still have the $10 Money Card up there, but we'll be adding the $15 now. Looking for a famous place. (whoosh as the puzzle board appears on screen)

(ding)(audience cheers) That's exactly what it is, Marc. You see, Istanbul was Constantinople. Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople. Been a long time gone, Constantinople, now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night. Stacey, where's the $15? |

Patseen: $37
William: $35
Marc: $45
We add the $10 to your score, and you've taken the lead by $8. Will he have a chance at the $25,000 in CashCard, or will Patseen or William come back? Find out when you come back. (main theme to commercial, cheers and applause, fade to commercial)
[Blockbusters 1987 Piano Lead](on the set of Blockbusters, we find Greg) Greg: So, Tony's version of Card Sharks gets cancelled on another network. What does he do? He comes over here to NBC and decides to host Blockbusters. With more money and more surprises than before, it should be a lot of fun. Bill would be proud. Both of them. Promo Announcer: (VO) Blockbusters. Returning to NBC November 12th.Greg: Wish they'd use the Cobert theme, though.
(fade in, main theme closes, cheers and applause)Welcome back, it's round 3, it's Wednesday, and here are the scores.
Patseen: $37
William: $35
Marc: $45
Marc is leading at $45, thanks to good aim at the Fame Game board. Patseen is at $37, and William is just $2 behind. Back to the questions we go. 1. UB40's first number one hit, "Red Red Wine", was a cover of whose song?
2. A World War I song asks "How Ya Gonna Keep 'em Down on the Farm After They've Seen" what major world city?
3. Which of the Seven Wonders of the World was situated approximately 50 miles south of modern Baghdad?
4. Lemurs are found almost entirely on which isolated island?
5. Give me the next line to this Halloween song.
Well, I saw Lon Chaney walking with the Queen
Doing the werewolves of London
I saw Lon Chaney, Jr. walking with the Queen
Doing the werewolves of London
I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's

It is crafted in Modena, Italy, from 6082 aluminum alloy and detailed with chrome and 24k gold plated speaker enclosures. Driven by neodymium magnets for clear highs and distinct mids, two 1"-diam. silk-dome, 25-watt tweeters and four 6 1/2"-diam.
