MG-HS Hour from NYC [NBC / Peacock] - Ep. 50 (SEASON FINALE)

[tmann3x]

I hope Lainey is OK.

[tmann3x]

While Lainey is on hiatus, I will attempt to call someone to fill in for her.

[lmurphy10]

i'm here

[tmann3x]

Welcome back, Lainey. We were very concerned about you.

[lmurphy10]

Sorry i'm removing from a cold this week

[dougmorrisontheair]

Okay, Lainey's set as is everyone else.

Raymond, I think you've had a lot of time to think this over.

Santa Claus said, "Little Rotten Rodney is permanently atop the naughty list. That's why I stuffed his stocking with BLANK."

[basketball32]

coal

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience cheers)

Doug: That's a great answer alright. A classic answer for sure. But then again -- we *are* dealing with Little Rotten Rodney. So possibilities are endless. Let's start checking answers with Mark.

Mark: (card)

(ding; audience applause)

Doug: Regardless of the amount, it's the first match of the game for Raymond. Lainey, do you concur?

Lainey: Well say goodbye to Rotten Rodney cause Santa gave him... (card)

(buzz) (audience laughs)

Doug: Talk about gettin' lit. (more laughs) Nels?

Nels: A mark liotta voodoo doll -- (scattered gasps) -- no no no, my real answer is (card) crude oil.

(buzz)

Doug: Crude response either way as we look for more coal from the bottom tier.

Santa Claus said, "Little Rotten Rodney is permanently atop the naughty list. That's why I stuffed his stocking with BLANK."

Doug: Tony, do you deliver more coal?

Tony: Every single Christmas, Rodney always get what he always want. A subscription of BULLY Magazine and (shows card)

(ding; audience applause)

Doug: And there's more money for Raymond. Bill, what do you bring to Raymond's stocking?

Bill: (card)

(buzz) (audience laughs and applauds)

Doug: So you're saying -- Santa believes Rodney's full of -- nevermind. The full explanation has to be saved for Peacock. (scattered laughter from crowd) Immanuel, please wrap this half of the round up.

Immanuel: (card)

(ding; audience applause)

Doug: More coal!

Doug: Well, Raymond, you're already halfway to a perfect score. Kourtney, keep the faith, there's a long way to go.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Kourtney, keep the faith, there's a long way to go.

(grabs b)

And once again, all the stars play this one. (scans card) And for this next question, we pay a visit to the antithesis of a glorious nation.

Nerdocrumbesia is one *SLEAZY* country...

HOW SLEAZY IS IT?!?!? 

...before entering politics, Nerdocrumbesia's Prime Minister worked as BLANK.

(think music plays)

(audience laughs and applauds)

[tmann3x]

Still waiting on Mark's PM...

[dougmorrisontheair]

Okay, Mark's ready.

So, Kourtney, we'll call for your answer after I repeat the question.

Nerdocrumbesia is one *SLEAZY* country. Before entering politics, Nerdocrumbesia's Prime Minister worked as BLANK.

[pathfinder20]

A used car salesman.

[tmann3x]

Penn Jillette: YOU FOOL!

[dougmorrisontheair]

(mixed reactions from crowd)

Doug: Now now -- it's not that bad of an answer. There are sleazier occupations one could pursue in Nerdocrumbesia. But used car sales is not that bad an idea. Ya never know. Someone might come up with used car salesman -- or pre-owned car sales associate, as we'd say in the here and now. Mark, we start with you again.

Mark: (card)

(buzz)
(audience cheers)

Doug: *That's* a sleazier occupation. Really sleazy. Lainey, what was the P.M. doing before going into politics?

Lainey: I also said... (card)

(buzz) (more cheers)

Doug: Another disrober. Nels, did you think of a disrober or something else?

Nels: Mark Liotta should know something about this... (card)

(buzz) (more cheers)

Doug: Well, matching answers all across the top tier. Still looking for a used car specialist as we visit Tony.

Nerdocrumbesia is one *SLEAZY* country. Before entering politics, Nerdocrumbesia's Prime Minister worked as BLANK.

Tony: No comment... (card)

(buzz) (more cheers)

Doug: Wow. Had you said "stripper", Kourtney, you'd be in the lead by now. Still some hope to get on the scoreboard with "used car sales". Bill?

Bill: Prior to becoming Prime Minister, he worked as... (card)

(buzz)
(audience laughs and applauds)

Doug: Umm -- like him or not, it reminds me of what President Reagan said about politics. He came to the conclusion, near the end of his second term as I recall, that politics is the second oldest profession -- and it resembles the first. (scattered laughter from crowd) Immanuel, please conclude this round for us.

Immanuel: Funny, you'd think that with a name Nerdocrumbesia, there'd be a bunch of...well...NERDS right?

Doug: Right.

Immanuel: But they're sleazy so...

(buzz)
(audience laughs and applauds)

Immanuel: Not saying that anyone who works at McDonald's isn't smart, any job is a smart and important job...I just don't want pickles on my burger when I say "No Pickles!"

(more laughter from crowd)

Doug: Heck to the yes!

Doug: Well, Kourtney, again, the game is young.  Plenty of time for catching up.  Raymond will look to pad the lead after the break.

We'll play Round 2 -- when you come back to New York City!


(audience applause; MG-HSH music plays)

==================================================================================================

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience cheers)

Welcome back. Let's start Round 2.

(pushes button on toaster revealing questions)

Raymond, since you're leading, please start by picking Question A or Question B.

[basketball32]

A please

[dougmorrisontheair]

(grabs A)

Raymond's picking A and three stars play.

Lainey, Bill, and Nels, since Raymond hasn't matched you, you'll be playing this question.


Chuck Norris said, "Whoever said I can speak Braille is wrong. I actually speak fluent BLANK."

(think music plays)

(audience laughs and applauds)

[babytims]

Hold it!! I matched him!

[tmann3x]

The name is now fixed.

[dougmorrisontheair]

My mistake, I meant Nels earlier, Immanuel.

Okay, they're ready. Everything's ironed out.

Raymond, here's the question again.

Chuck Norris said, "Whoever said I can speak Braille is wrong. I actually speak fluent BLANK."

[basketball32]

the only thing I could come up with is texan

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience groans)

Doug: You'll notice -- Kourtney liked that answer.

(scattered laughter from crowd)

Doug: The joke is we're looking for an answer that's normally not spoken aloud -- such as Braille. So we start with Lainey this round.

Lainey: Well, he was in lot of martial arts films so I said, please no booing this is an excellent answer... (card)

(buzz)

(a few groan; others chuckle)

Doug: Mmm -- not necessarily a language. Nels?

Nels: (card) Sign language

(buzz) (scattered applause)

Doug: Eh, little better. Bill?

Bill: Since Chuck uses his hands a lot, I'd say

(card)

(buzz) (scattered applause)

Doug: I thought for sure someone would say Chuck would speak fluent -- chicken scratch.

Doug: Raymond, you'll stay at $300. Better luck in the next round. Kourtney, chance to capitalize here.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Kourtney, chance to capitalize here.

(grabs B)

And all six stars get to play this question. (scans card) Before we play this question, everyone here did get to see "The Wheel" starring Michael McIntyre recently -- right?

(audience cheers)

Great! Hope we see it again soon. So with that, here's the question.

Michael McIntyre said, "How on Earth did Dumb Dora get passed the contestant coordinators? When she became a one in three on 'The Wheel', she kept asking, 'Where's BLANK?'"

(think music plays)

(audience laughs and applauds)

[tmann3x]

And Mark has one hour left...

[dougmorrisontheair]

And Mark's in there -- as is everyone else. Kourtney, again, here's the question.

Michael McIntyre said, "How on Earth did Dumb Dora get passed the contestant coordinators? When she became a one in three on 'The Wheel', she kept asking, 'Where's BLANK?'"

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Kourtney)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(time passes)

Doug: I must have an answer before the buzzer sounds.

(buzz) (audience groans)

Doug: And there's the time. Sorry, Kourtney. Well, obviously, any answer associated with some other show connected with a big spinning wheel is what we're looking for. We'll quickly look at answers -- starting with Mark.

Mark: (card)

(audience cheers)

Doug: There's a really good answer. Pat, you might remember, was a guest of the original version of MG-HSH. Even sat where Lainey is now.

Lainey: (card) I also said Pat.

(more cheers)

Doug: Another Pat. Nels?

Nels: (card) Where's Pat?

(more cheers)

Doug: Unanimous so far. Could've been a tie as we go to Tony.

Tony: I personally believe Dora should have made a left turn at CBS studios. Or was it Sony? Anyhow, the one thing Dumb Dora wants to know is (card)

(more cheers)

Tony: Vanna White not included.

Doug: That's a good point you just brought up. Judge, if a civilian player said "Pat Sajak *and* Vanna White" and a celebrity said one or the other, what's the result?

(buzz)

Doug: Thought so. So with that, Bill?

Bill: (card)

(more cheers)

Doug: (laughs) Speaking of Vanna, Bill went with the letter lady. And Immanuel, please end this round for giggles.

Immanuel: The same question I asked myself when I saw it (card)

(more cheers)

Doug: There ya go.  Of course, if Dora were *REALLY* dumb, she could've asked where are the ceramic dalmatians.

(audience laughs)

Doug: Well -- we end the round the way we started -- with Raymond leading 300 to nil. Find out who advances to Hollywood Squares when you come back to New York City.

(MG-HSH theme plays; audience cheers)

[billmcdee]

Yes that would have been dumb of Dora to ask where the dalmatians are...when they are so easily spotted.

[babytims]

Paws...did you just make a pun?
