Hey, everyone... Since Blockbusters will be making its debut on November 12th, I'm looking for a participant to play a sudden death game called the Shortcut To Victory. This is based on an off-air pilot to the 1980-82 original hosted by the late Bill Cullen. It's like the Gold Run, but you must answer all three of the initiated clues correctly.
Who wants to give it a try?

The bad news is that I don't have the opening theme with me... but we'll begin with the Shortcut to Victory. The category for this test run is ENTERTAINMENT. I'll be asking a random question. You give me the initials and the correct answer. If you're right, we'll continue with the next question. You must answer all three of them correctly... and win $5,000 (five grand per match on the series). Do you have any questions...? |

Good luck, Anthony. Here's the first question--

Correct! [ Ding, Applause ]If you answer this final question correctly, you'll win $5,000. If not, your opponent wins the five grand and the right to play the Gold Run (this is just a test run after all). Here comes your final question. What year did the band Human League release an album titled "Dare"? |

I assume that Anthony is unavailable for comment. Therefore, we must end this test at this very moment. We'll run another test later this week. Don't forget to watch the network return of Blockbusters on November 12th right here on NBC. Until then... I'm Tony Lane saying thank you for watching our special test run of Shortcut To Victory on Blockbusters. So long folks... [ Main Theme ][ Long Applause, Cheers ][ Randy West ] This is Randy West speaking for Blockbusters...
...a Mark Goodson Television Production.
