Shadoe: You have seen this game throughout various themes around the world...



...but not like this! For the first time ever, it's time for the game show where one card can literally mean the difference between winning a fortune or losing it all, it's...



Audience: UNO!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

Shadoe: And now, please welcome your "one" and only host...Dayo Kayode!

(DK appears behind the game screen)

(Louder Cheers and Applause)



DK: Thank you! First of all, let's give it up to the one and only Shadoe Stevens!



Shadoe: Thank you, Dayo. Still here and kicking!

DK: Indeed. Yes, how's it going everybody? I hope you're in for some fun because you've joined us here on UNO, the greatest card game in the whole wide world! If you don't know UNO, let me quickly fill you in. This is a game where you have to discard all of your cards before your opponents do to score the win. Well, tonight, we're going to do just that, but this time, our players will be playing for cash and prizes worth over $1.5 Million!

(Cheers and Applause)

And of course, I can't do it alone. I've got some people to back me up in case things get out of hand...it's the Smosh Games crew, both current and former!



It's the original Smosh crew: Ian, Anthony, Mari, Sohinki, Jovenshire and Lasercorn!

(Wild Cheers and Applause)

They are all going to be our referees for tonight's big game. Now, are you guys ready to go? Well, I sure am. Let's bring out the players, let's do it!

(Players run out from backstage and to center stage to meet me and the original Smosh crew)

(Cheers and Applause)

Let's welcome tonight's players: William Low, Nels Snesrud, and Matthew Ellwart!

(Cheers and Applause)

These 3 players are going to embark on a journey like no other, and in the end, only one of them will come out on top and earn the right to go to the Bonus Bonanza to hopefully make it to the Power Pyramid for a chance to win the Grand Progressive Jackpot!

Who's it going to be? Well, why don't you come back to find out?

[dad90]

[dad90]

(Cheers and Applause)

DK: And welcome back! Now, we're ready to play the game!

WILLIAM <-----> NELS <-----> MATTHEW

0000 <-----> 0000 <-----> 0000

$0000 <-----> $0000 <-----> $0000

William, Nels and Matthew are in their respective podiums with referees Ian, Anthony and Mari on their side keeping everything in check.

Now, we're going to talk to you guys in a little bit, but first, let's play the game! And whenever there's a game, there's some rules! And the rules goes a little bit of something like this:

The main object of the game is to score points, as well as cash and prizes, by eliminating all of the cards in your hand first before your opponents do. Before each round begins, our players will have their cards dealt at random from the "Lab Monkeys" at Random.org. They know their cards, but they don't know their opponents' cards, and a good way to win the round is to study your foes, as well as studying the cards. Also, a 3rd party was responsible for shuffling the cards before the show began and the Lab Monkeys have cut the cards during the break.

In fact, speaking of cards, each player has 7 cards to begin with at the start of each round, like the normal game.

BUT! Here's something exclusive that we, and only we people do here on Uno: The Game Show, and that's by giving you players a Head Start!

(Audience oohs)

In other words, before you even begin playing the cards, you have a chance to discard all BUT ONE of your cards from your hand. And you could even pick up some cash along the way!

And the way we do that is by answering questions. I have 3 questions in my hand, players, and after giving out the Multiple-Choices and then the question, you will then buzz-in. You will have 24 hours to answer the question the moment you buzz-in, and we must accept your first response. If you're right, you'll get to discard 2 cards from your hand and our referees will put them at the bottom of the deck.

But be careful, because if you're wrong, you get to add 1 more card to your hand, and the other players can buzz in and steal.

So, you can start the round with as little as 1 card, or as much as 10.

And now, here's a little twist!

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
[7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

In front of you is a board with 12 numbers and behind each of them are numbers 1-4 and a WILD card. I'll talk about the WILD card when someone picks it. Whatever number is revealed, we'll multiply that by $50 and that's the value of how much that question will be when you get it right.

Now, we drew numbers backstage to see who will go first since we have 3 new challengers, and William, you'll get to start us off by choosing one of the 12 numbers on the board.

[williamlow31]

10

[dad90]

#10, and what's behind there?

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
[7] [8] [9] [WILD] [11] [12]

(Wild Card!)

It's the WILD card!

(Cheers and Applause)

Well, since it's picked right off the bat, let me tell you how this works. William, since you've picked the WILD card, this question is all yours and yours alone. You first have a decision to make.

I will show you two categories to choose from in a moment and this question will not be multiple choice. Before you get to hear the question, you will have decide on whether you want to wager up to $500 in cash and discard 2 cards from your hand or trade one of your cards for this WILD card.

With that said, here are the two categories to choose from.

90's Sitcoms
"Friends"

William, choose one of the categories and then decide whether you want to wager up to $500 and discard 2 cards from your hand or a chance to trade one of your cards for this WILD card.

I also want to warn you that if you get this question wrong, you'll be forced to add 2 cards to your hand instead of 1.

(Audience Suggestions)

[williamlow31]

I'll go Friends and I want to play it safe, so I'll wager $200.

[dad90]

For $200 and to discard 2 cards, here's your question.

On "Friends", tell me who plays Rachel?

You have 24 hours from now to answer, William.

[williamlow31]

Jennifer Aniston (Probably regretting not betting more)

[dad90]

Jennifer Aniston is right!

(Audience Applause)

Now William, for getting that answer correct, you will now get to discard 2 cards from your hand and put them in the bottom of the deck.

CARDS TOTAL:

WILLIAM: 5
NELS: 7
MATTHEW: 7

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
[7] [8] [9] [UNO] [11] [12]

Also, for getting the question correct, you get to choose the next number, William.

[williamlow31]

5

[dad90]

The WILD card is out of the way, so the rest of the board are numbers, and for each number revealed, we'll multiply by $50, so what's behind #5?

[1] [2] [3] [4] [2] [6]
[7] [8] [9] [UNO] [11] [12]

A 2, so for $100, here's the question to all 3 of you.

Drew Carey
Jeff Foxworthy
Brett Butler

Tell me who's the author of the book titled "Dirty Jokes and Beer".

William: 29
Nels: 90
Matthew: 47

Magic #: 100

(Buzz-In!)

And Nels buzzes in! What's your answer?

[nelson17]

drew carey

[dad90]

Drew Carey, the current host of "The Price is Right" is right!

Drew Carey
Jeff Foxworthy
Brett Butler

(Audience Applause)

Nels, you get to discard 2 cards from your hand and put them in the bottom of the deck.

CARDS TOTAL:

WILLIAM: 5
NELS: 5
MATTHEW: 7

[1] [2] [3] [4] [UNO] [6]
[7] [8] [9] [UNO] [11] [12]

One more question to go, and Nels, you get to pick.

[nelson17]

1 please

[dad90]

Very well, then what's behind #1?

[2] [2] [3] [4] [UNO] [6]
[7] [8] [9] [UNO] [11] [12]

A 2, so for $100, here's the question.

"Longfellow Serenade"
"Roll Over Beethoven"
"Rock Me Amadeus"

Which was a hit song for Neil Diamond?

William: 11
Nels: 40
Matthew: 61

Magic #: 57

(Buzz-In!)

And Matthew buzzes in! What's your answer?

[Deleted]

Longfellow Serenade?

[dad90]

If that was a guess, then you are absolutely right!

"Longfellow Serenade"
"Roll Over Beethoven"
"Rock Me Amadeus"

(Audience Applause)

Matthew, you get to discard 2 cards from your hand and put them in the bottom of the deck.

CARDS TOTAL:

WILLIAM: 5
NELS: 5
MATTHEW: 5

So after the Head-Start portion of the round, everyone managed to get on the board as all 3 players have answered 1 question correctly and have 5 cards remaining in their hand. Remember those numbers, players.

Also, William has $200 and Nels and Matthew each have $100, and any cash score they get will be theirs to keep, no matter what happens.

Now, we're about to deal out the cards, but first, let's explain on how this main portion of the round works.

The traditional rules of UNO is applied, which a card can be covered with the same number or the same color, or a Wild card. If you don't have a match or if you don't want to play, you must draw a card from the top of the deck. From there, you can play that card or pass (if you can't or if you want to, that's up to you). If you could play and chose to draw a card though, you can't play another card than the one you've just drawn.



Now, in addition to all of the numbered cards in the deck, there are 32 Action cards in the deck: 8 Skip, 8 Reverse, 8 Draw +2, 4 Wild and 4 Wild Draw +4 cards. For the first 2 rounds, only 14 of them will be used: 4 Skip, 4 Reverse, 4 Draw +2, 1 Wild and 1 Wild Draw +4 to make things fair. But that will change when the 3rd round and the Head-to-Head Showdown, the Wild Card Championship round occurs. We'll talk about that later.

That's a total of 90 cards to deal with, and since that we have 15 of them out in the open...

WILLIAM <-----> NELS <-----> MATTHEW

0000 <-----> 0000 <-----> 0000

$200 <-----> $100 <-----> $100

DRAW PILE: 75

...there are 75 cards left in the Draw pile, and that is actually important, because if the Draw pile is empty, or if time runs out, or if any one of you plays the last card (after doing the Golden Rule), then the round ends, and the scoring system will come into play.

SCORING:

0-9 = 0-9 Points
Skip = 20 Points
Reverse = 20 Points
Draw +2 = 20 Points
Wild / Wild Draw Four = 50 Points

PRIZES:

0-9 = $0-$900 Cash
Skip, Reverse, Draw +2 = PRIZE
Wild / Wild Draw Four = LUXURY PRIZE

That will come into effect to the one lucky player who finishes the hand in that round. However, if, in any round, we're out of time or the Draw pile is empty, the round ends, then the player with the least amount of cards is the winner. He will be awarded with 100 points, along with the additional points from his own hand, but the total will then be deducted from each of the opponents' hands, and the winner wins remaining points and 100 times that total in cash.

Now, we need to find out who gets to start this round, and in order to do that, I have one more question here, and this is for control of the round. Good luck to you players, and here's the set of answers...

The Army
The Navy
The Marines

And here's the question.

In which branch of the military would you find Major Dad?

William: 20
Nels: 65
Matthew: 80

Magic #: 7

(Buzz-In!)

And William buzzes in! What's your answer?

[williamlow31]

I'm going to guess Marines

[dad90]

The Marines is the right answer!

The Army
The Navy
The Marines

(Audience Applause)

WILLIAM -----> NELS -----> MATTHEW

0000 -----> 0000 -----> 0000

$200 -----> $100 -----> $100

DRAW PILE: 75

LAST CARD PLAYED: [-----]

Now William, you've won the right to have control. Now, here's another question. Would you like to go first, or would you like Nels to go first, because the first step is to take the first card out of the Draw pile, and that will determine which card to start off with.

Now...

[RED]

[YELLOW]

[BLUE]

[GREEN]

In order for you to play a card properly, first you must say the rank of the card, and of course, color that card as shown up above here. Please check your PM's often!

[WILD] [WILD +4]

Wild cards are shown like this, and then you can determine the color of which to play next.

BUT! Be careful when you play the Wild Draw Four card, my friends. That card cannot be used properly if you can play a colored card instead, because if you choose to do so, your victim can check your hand and even expose it all to everyone out there, and to you folks at home as well, to see if you had the right to use it.

If you were right to do so, then the victim must draw SIX cards instead of four.

(Audience Oohs)

But if you did it wrong, YOU have to take four cards instead of your opponent.

(Louder Oohs)

And of course, players, we have the Golden Rule: Whenever you have one card left in your hand at any time, you MUST say...

Audience: UNO!

Because if your opponent does that before you, you MUST draw two cards from the pile. Assuming that you are unable to play/discard your last card and needs to draw, but after drawing, is then able to play/discard that penultimate card, you have to repeat the action of calling out “UNO”. The bottom line is – Announcing “UNO” needs to be repeated every time you are left with one card.

So William, are you going to take the first card from the Draw Pile to play first, or would you like Nels to do that?

[williamlow31]

I'll go first

[dad90]

And the card that William will pick from the Draw Pile first is...

[WILD +4]

(Audience Gasps)

Well, what do you know? It's the WILD Draw Four card. Now, since that is the first card on top of the deck, let me explain how that works. If the first card is a Wild Draw Four card – Return it to the Draw Pile, shuffle the deck, and turn over a new card.

So now, Lasercorn is shuffling the deck...

(Shuffle Editing)

And now, we look at a new card from the top of the deck, and it is...

[5]

A Yellow 5.

DRAW PILE: 74

LAST CARD PLAYED: [5]

OK William, now choose a card from your hand to play, and if you can't do that, you must draw a card.

Also, to all players, if you don't respond with 24 hours, you'll automatically draw a card as well.

[williamlow31]

Yellow 2
