On A Roll (CBS; Episode 52)

[basketball32]

The only word I can think of is cream.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience cheers)

For the game -- is it -- Cream?

(dings; SCSD win theme plays; audience cheers)

That's it.

And as we go back to the board, let's bring back the clues and reveal the top one in full.

Jack Bruce along with Ginger Baker and Eric Clapton were members of Cream -- regarded as rock's first supergroup. They weren't together long -- but, collectively, they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993.

Frank, I've been alerted from the floor there was an irregularity that cropped up in the playing of the game. That might have put the losing party at a disadvantage.

So, ultimately, the winner was going to level up and the loser was not going to suffer a strike. So, you're still here. You're still playing. You'll still play on the next show.

(audience cheers)

Raymond, as for you, it's time for your Level 1 money roll.


(audience cheers as...) (Frank rolls)

(audience cheers; theme plays)

We're playing for $5000 a point or up to $50,000 -- right after this.

(theme plays)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Welcome back. Raymond, we've played Big 6 earlier. So we'll dive right into your Big 6 session.

Wally's providing you the hint of Small Screen. This means the Big 6 word is a proper noun -- and the title of a show that has been seen on a broadcast network, cable/satellite network, or streaming service at least once.

You've got four rolls to uncover the title of that show. You -- are on a roll.

(audience cheers as...) (Raymond rolls)

And you're starting with a *choice* of the third or fifth letter in the word.

[basketball32]

third letter please

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

Third letter is an S.

One guess only for $50,000, Raymond. Remember, you must solve this word in four rolls or less to play for more money in Lucky 7.

What is this Big 6 word?

[basketball32]

I don’t know.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(buzz)

Okay, value of the word drops to $5000 -- and the money cuts in half with each roll thereafter. Avoid those doubles.

(audience cheers as...) (Raymond rolls)

And it's a 3 and a 4. You've already played the 3. So, fourth letter, please, Wally.

(ding)

Another E.

Well -- double E might help. For $5000, what is this Big 6 word?

[basketball32]

The Eye?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(scattered groans)

(buzz)

We'll have to count that as a guess. Please keep in mind, Raymond, the Big 6 word is a single word. We've been known to play this game as two words with the audience. But with the champ always as one word.

So with that clarified, we're down to a $2500 value.

(audience cheers as...) (Raymond rolls)

And we've got a choice of the first or fifth letter this time.

[basketball32]

first letter please

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

Thought ya might. Word starts with a C.

Remember, it's a six-letter single-word title we're looking for Raymond. What's the word for $2500?

[basketball32]

Cheers

[dougmorrisontheair]

(dings; SCSD win theme plays; audience cheers)

There ya got it. Third guess is the charm for $2500. Now let's play for, hopefully, a lot more in Lucky 7.

(FF reveal sfx)

(FF reveal sfx)

Since you're on Level 1, the amounts Wally stashed in the word "lucky" range in value from $25,000 to $100,000.

The more you play for, the tougher it will be to win the big money.

Which "lucky" letter would you like?

[basketball32]

K please

[dougmorrisontheair]

Wally, what did you stuff in the letter K?

(cha-ching)

(audience cheers)

The best stuff around! $100,000.

(ding)

Unfortunately, with top dollar, you only get a maximum of two shots.

Crew (doing their best San Antonio Spurs' fans impressions to warm cockles of Doug's heart): TWO SHOTS!

(scattered laughter and applause from crowd)

Avoid doubles, you make money. Roll any sum of 7, you're $100,000 richer, Raymond. You -- are on a roll.

(audience cheers as...) (Raymond rolls)

Got a niner to start.

(ding)

One more try for all the marbles.

(audience cheers as...) (Raymond rolls)

(buzz; NYSI89 losing horns; audience groans)

And no lucky 7.

(ding)

But you did get a total of $1300. Your total for clearing Level 1 is...


(FF reveal sfx)

(theme plays; audience applause)

...$3800 -- and we'll be back in a moment.

(quick fade to black)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Rematch with these rollers the next time. 'Til then, keep the faith and treasure your loved ones.


(closing theme plays; audience applause)
