MATCH GAME/HOLLYWOOD SQUARES HOUR [NBC] - Episode 43

[Bryan]

Watch your mouth alien, I got two at home!

[asja2002]

Brayan Law indeed to Block. *Applause*






Let's see the amount in play....










$600. This is indeed *BELLS**BELLS*BELLS*BELLS*






Going to be the last question of this game. $600, a block, and a win if judged correctly. A new champion in Kourtney if it's otherwise.


Bryan, here's the question....


The Michelin company is a world-known tire company. But  exactly what importance does it have in the world of Food?

[Bryan]

Making the Michelin Man fatter!

(Laughter)

Feeding Africa!

[lmurphy10]

I'm Going to Disagree

[asja2002]

Michelin actually distributes the three-star rating used to judge the best restaurants in the world, hence, the Michelin Star Rating. Lainey successfully blocks and by only a few hundred dollars Wins the game!


(winning bell sounds, win cue 2, cheers and applause, commercial cue)





Lainey, you've earned another chance at the big money, please head to center stage while we talk to Kourtney...


Kourtney, you kept it close right to the end, but Lainey barely squeaked by you. You've been an outstanding contestant and our audience cheers for you in agreement. Would you like to share any thoughts before we ring up your total for the show?

[pathfinder20]

Well, she is definitely a champion in my book. I managed to keep it close but no cigar today. I will be back again soon. Take NBC to the cleaners Lainey.

[asja2002]

Very kind words, Kourtney. Not to forget either you won $1,500 in the Match Game portion of our show, that coupled with the $5,600 you've won in The Hollywood Squares gives you a great total of...





$7,100... Another round of applause for Kourtney Wilson, everyone!!


Lainey is now up to One-Eightynine-two-two-six with the chance for more, isn't that true, Doug?

[dougmorrisontheair]

How true it is, Steve. Our teacher could be knocking on the door of $300,000 in winnings. Find out how in the Super Match -- right after these words of interest.

(Super Match cue, cheers and applause)

SHADOE:  And now, here to play the Super Match is Doug Morris.


(cheers and applause)

[tmann3x]

DOUG MORRIS:  Thank you, Shadoe.

Lainey, here we are again with the Super Match. You're on quite a winning streak. Let's see if you can keep it going in the Audience Match.

Let's take a look at yonder board and reveal the legend.

(ding)

LITTLE RED______

Lainey, you know we asked a recent audience for their best responses to that question. You want to match the most popular answer in that survey for $2000.

(ding)

If you match the second most popular answer, you win $1000.

(ding)

Third most popular answer scores $500.

(ding)

Now you know what happens here...

...please select three stars for their ideas on what ranks number one.

[lmurphy10]

okay let's go with Bill,Steve,and Kevin

[billmcdee]

Little Red RIDING HOOD.

[dougmorrisontheair]

All right, we've got Bill's. To Steve, who did so well hosting Squares, what say ye?

LITTLE RED______

[asja2002]

To quote Prince…

Little Red CORVETTE

[dougmorrisontheair]

And Kevin, third's tough we know.


LITTLE RED______

[koopakid17]

This is tough because there aren't a lot of them. I'll go with what the Radio Flyer is also known as: the Little Red Wagon.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Okay, Lainey, we've got three.

Little Red Riding Hood, Little Red Corvette, and Little Red Wagon.

You know your options here -- take any of their suggestions or reject them all and come up with an answer of your own.

What do you think is the number one answer?

[lmurphy10]

gotta go with Little Red Riding Hood

[billmcdee]

(crossing my fingers)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience cheers)

Going with Bill's answer of Little Red Riding Hood. Let's see if that answer cracked the top three -- and if so, where.

First, let's reveal the $500 response.

(ding)

Little Red Lighthouse. That's an altogether different children's story. In a related matter, there's an actual little red lighthouse near the George Washington Bridge in New York City.

But we're still looking for Little Red Riding Hood. Does that answer rank second for $1000?

(ding)

"Little Red Corvette" -- the Prince masterpiece and Steve's answer.

Last

chance

for

Little

Red

Riding

Hood.

Is

it

worth

two

thousand

dollars?

Slide

the

big

one,

Earl,

pretty

please

with

a

cherry

on

top.

(dings; audience applause)

Bingo!!!! Great job.

Well, Lainey, that's one hurdle cleared.

(star wheel descends)

Now here's the next one -- the star wheel. Since you just won $2000 from the audience match....

(ding)

...we seed the bank with a different $2000.

Lainey, you know what happens next. You'll give the wheel a spin to see who'll you'll team up with on the head-to-head question -- and to see how much the question will be worth. If you can land on one of the elusive fifties, we'll multiply the 50 by the $2000 to make the question worth $100,000.


(audience cheers)

So, when you're ready, please give it a spin.

---

Lainey, spin code, please, from 1-81.

[lmurphy10]

(40)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience cheers as...)

(Lainey spins wheel)

(dings; audience applause)

It's a 20 -- times $2000 -- means a $40,000 question with Kevin.

Okay, Kevin, Lainey, you know the drill. We must have an exact match to this question.

_____OF EDEN O-F, of. E-D-E-N, Eden. _____OF EDEN

(Super Match think music plays)

---

Lainey, please marinate on an answer -- but don't respond yet.

Kevin, please PM Tony and me with your answer.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

Okay, Lainey. Kevin's ready with his answer. We now call for yours for $40,000.

_____OF EDEN

[lmurphy10]

Garden

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience cheers)

Stop me if you've heard this one before -- (scattered groans) -- *but* -- there are two really good answers to this. Lainey, I think you chose the better of the two.

Kevin,

did

you

pick

the

better

of

the

two?

Did

you

write

down

"Garden"

for

forty

thousand

dollars

in

American

fundage?


Kevin: First one that came to my mind. I thought about where creation began and came up with…

(dings; audience applause; win music plays; MG-HSH theme plays)

Doug: BOOM!

Doug: Other good answer -- "East of Eden" -- the great John Steinbeck story. But "garden" grew Lainey's bank account by $40,000.

We'll total up the champ's winnings -- after this.

[koopakid17]

I actually saw that movie recently. "East of Eden" never crossed my mind. Thankfully, it didn't!

[tmann3x]

(variant theme plays)
