After a monthly hiatus, "Blockbusters" is finally BACK!
In previous episodes, the show was a mix between the Cullen pilot and the Rafferty series. Right now, this show will be 100% all Rafferty.
In our last episode, we had crowned a new champion... Matt Ringgenberg. Without any alteration, he has a total of $10,000. When our show begins, he'll be playing the Gold Run for $25,000.
And after the bonus game, Nels Snesrud will be our challenger.
Let me know if the both of you guys are ready.

Sweet! Let's see you win the big dough. As soon as I press the portable podium, come on over and let's play the Gold Run. [MAIN THEME][CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Now that you're all set and ready, let's load in the Gold Run board. [REVEALS BOARD WITH INITIALS AND LETTERS]There they are. Each question contains the initials or a one word answer. In order to win the big bucks, you must start at the left side... connecting the gold to the gold. Make that complete path and you'll win $25,000. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Fair warning-- If you give me an incorrect response or pass on that question, you'll receive a strike. If you get all three strikes... the game will be automatically over.. Each block you answer correctly, we'll give you $500. Any further questions?
