We’re back at Television City folks after a string of shows elsewhere. Last show we crowned a champion, Kourtney Wilson, who missed out on the million but won over $100,000 in cold hard cash.
A rule change being made permanent since the last show: for the bonus round a player has 5 guesses in a 48 hour time window, so the player either used up their 5 guesses or the 48 hour timer runs out, whichever comes first.
Kourtney, I need you to check in to the thread. Also I need 2 challengers for Kourtney to sign up who aren’t named Kevin Kolsen or Nels Snesrud, and all players check your PMs when number drawings come.
Thanks, and good luck!

That's good to hear Matt...here's to you "ringing up" some dough on our wheel!

Quite well here thanks. Not so much as a single flake of snow has fallen yet in January, and our nearby team just punched their ticket to the Super Bowl yesterday.

I'll try to stay up to watch, but the games start so late anymore for me.
For personal reasons I am actually rooting for Philadelphia, something I never thought I would say, let alone more than once!

*Philadelphia fans cheer, Chiefs fan boo*
Go Rams!
*scattered laughter, cheers, and boos*
Ah who am I kidding? I don't watch football. I'm waiting for baseball season to start. Good luck to you tonight, Bill. Kourtney made it back to us, he's got a total so far of $108,450!
*cheers*
That's all in cash too. Kourtney, do you have any plans for your hundred grand and are you ready to win more?

Then good luck to you and let's get to it! ![]()  $2,000 is the top dollar value on the wheel for round 1. And Jim...what's with the food on the wheel? Did our stagehands leave their lunch on the wheel, what's with the Chocolate?*prize cue*Jim: Oh it's no lunch, it's a prize! Players it's 100 boxes of 1 pound of personalized chocolates, Make a bold and memorable impression with these high-quality custom-made gourmet chocolate bars. They're perfect for year-end appreciation gifts or hand-out at holiday parties.  *applause* And there you have it, your next gift for Valentine's Day. Let's see our first round puzzle, the category is WHAT'S ON TV?*puzzle chimes* The puzzle describes a television series, and it's up to you to decipher what that show is.
