The correct answer was "Far from the Madding Crowd".  Circle gets the square.

The planet Uranus was originally named what?

[mrb2000]

(audience begins to chuckle)

Hey, look man. These types of questions are supposed to be for my show.

(laughter & applause)

I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and say Titania.

[tmann3x]

Nels... Matt says the answer is Titania. Do you agree or disagree?

[nelson17]

I’ll disagree

[tmann3x]

The planet Uranus was originally named...  George's Star.  X gets the square.

(applause, ding)

Matt, please pick a square.

[mringgenberg]

Steven to block.

[tmann3x]

(cheers and applause)


If you get this $250 question right, you will block.  If not, Nels will get his lead back.  Steven Solsak...



Juniper berries are often used to provide the flavor in what alcoholic beverage?

[st1200]

Homer Simpson:Doh

[tmann3x]

Patrick...

STEVE:  And now... here to play the Super Match is Doug Morris!


(cheers and applause)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Thanks, Steve. Also here to play is Nels for the fifth and final time. Champ, let's see if you can crack the $300,000 barrier.

As you're well aware of, before you can win $100,000, you must win $2000 from this Audience Match Board.

We surveyed a recent studio audience and we asked for their best responses to this question.

(ding)

ELIZABETH_______

If you match the most popular answer, you win that $2000...

(ding)

...you'll also be that much closer to another $100,000.

Match the second most popular answer and you'll be $1000 richer.

(ding)

And the third popular answer earns $500.

(ding)

You may select three of the nine stars for their two cents on the best way to fill in that blank.

Who are ya pickin'?

[tmann3x]

Pick me... pick me!!!!

[nelson17]

Tony Bill kevin

[dougmorrisontheair]

All right. To Tony first, how do you complete this?

ELIZABETH__________

[tmann3x]

TAYLOR.

[billmcdee]

I'm thinking outside the box a bit, Elizabeth, NEW JERSEY.....my home state.

[koopakid17]

I had a second prepared in case Taylor was taken. I'll go with Elizabeth Ann Seton.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Okay, there's three. Elizabeth Taylor; Elizabeth, New Jersey; and Elizabeth Ann Seton. Nels, you know by now you may choose any of those answers -- or come up with a different answer of your own.

[nelson17]

Elizabeth Taylor

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience cheers)

Going with Tony's answer of Elizabeth Taylor. We'll find out if it ranked in the top three -- and if so -- where. For starters, let's reveal the $500 response.

(ding)

Elizabeth *Hurley*. How quickly we forgot. 

Let's see if Elizabeth Taylor ranked second for a grand.

(ding)

Elizabeth *Banks*. Great actress who wrangles whammies in her spare time.

Last

Taylor.

(dings; audience applause)

There we go!

(star wheel descends)

Well -- that's the first hurdle to $100,000. The next one just arrived -- the star wheel. Since you won $2000 over there...

(ding)

...we seed the bank up there with a different $2000. Depending on the spin of the wheel, that money will multiply by 20, 30, or 50 -- and also determines who helps you in the Head-To-Head Match.

It must make one complete revolution. Good luck -- and land on one of those fifties!

(Nels, please respond with a spin code from 1-81.)
