A it is and we're off and running. New game -- so obviously -- everyone on the panel plays. Beverly Hills is falling on hard times. The former home of Dicker and Dicker, the world famous furrier, is now home to BLANK. (audience laughs and applauds) (think music plays)Remember, stars, it's a Round 1 question. Let the imagination run wild.

And we're all set. George, here's the question again. Beverly Hills is falling on hard times. The former home of Dicker and Dicker, the world famous furrier, is now home to BLANK.

(audience groans)Doug: Umm -- you're *really* not understanding the question. For the sake of integrity, I'll take "puppies" as the official answer -- but as we get answers from the panel, I think you'll see where we were going with this. Nels, let's start with you. Nels: I’m gonna say (card) Donald Trump’s mansion. Nels: I know I’m going to hell. (audience groans) (buzz)Kevin: Well, New York City doesn't want him anymore! Doug: Yeah -- ohhh kay. Bryan, do you get the idea of this query? Bryan: Since they can’t sell furs anymore, why not sell pet food and put up kitties for adoption. (buzz) (scattered applause) Doug: That's in the ballpark to what George said -- but a classic general vs. specific mismatch, I'm afraid. And a good answer -- the building home to a *luxury* business is home to something that's not so luxurious. That's what we're looking for. Kevin? Kevin: I'm a few months early, I know, but it's never too early when you're a kid at heart. They turned that Dicker and Dicker into a... (buzz) (audience laughs and applauds)Doug: Preps for *all* holidays seem to get earlier and earlier. Why not? Over to Tony now. Beverly Hills is falling on hard times. The former home of Dicker and Dicker, the world famous furrier, is now home to BLANK.
Tony: Am I allowed to say it on the air? Tomorrow, I have a one on one interview with Howard Stern. (buzz) (scattered laughs from crowd) Doug: (looks to S&P rep) Yup -- we're good. We're not going to hover an "OOPS" in post. Michael? Michael: It's now home to a... (buzz) (audience laughs and applauds)Doug: Now that's a great answer. I was thinking the home of Dicker & Dicker would become a dollar store such as Family Dollar or Dollar Tree. Sam, please wrap this half of the inning up for us. Sam: What everything turns into when one place closes down, even a ritzy one. (buzz) (scattered applause) Doug: Starbucks -- good answer to end the round. Doug: George, keep the faith. Plenty of time for a comeback. Mike, your first question's coming up.

And let's see what George left you. (scans card) Geez Louise. (scattered laughter from crowd) B's not a question -- it's a book! (more laughter from crowd) Here goes anyway. Time Traveling Tom said, "I just got back from the year of 2026. I know that doesn't seem far away -- but I had to eavesdrop on The CW upfronts. The network's getting desperate and it ordered a reboot of BLANK." (audience laughs and applauds) (think music plays)Why are we plugging another network -- and are we paying our writers by the word?

Mmm'kay. Mike, I'll reread this novella out loud and then call for your answer. (scattered laughter from crowd) Time Traveling Tom said, "I just got back from the year of 2026. I know that doesn't seem far away -- but I had to eavesdrop on The CW upfronts. The network's getting desperate and it ordered a reboot of BLANK."

(cheers -- but a few groans -- from the crowd) Doug: In theory, that's not a bad answer. From a business standpoint, that may be easier said than done -- when you consider the owners of the joint lost more than a quarter of a billion dollars on The CW last year. Let's check. Ya never know. There may be a hopeful soul over here. Nels, we start with you. Nels: I really despise CW for canceling ... (buzz) (audience cheers)Doug: Now *that's* a sensible answer. The show still has a loyal fan base after roughly three decades -- and the network where it aired originally has gone through a lot of bad press in recent weeks. That answer's better than you think it is, Nels. Bryan? Bryan: In honor of Wayne, Colin and Ryan... (buzz) (audience cheers)Doug: Sensible. However, from a business standpoint, CW's a bit light on cash. They'd probably book little-known improv comics for the reboot. Kevin, what say ye? Kevin: Would have to be from its roots. Well, literally, if you consider the intended target demo. (buzz) (audience cheers)Doug: Ahhhh. Make a primetime animated version. No "Supernatural" yet as we go downstairs and visit Tony. Time Traveling Tom said, "I just got back from the year of 2026. I know that doesn't seem far away -- but I had to eavesdrop on The CW upfronts. The network's getting desperate and it ordered a reboot of BLANK."
Tony: Hey Doug... gimme a high five! *shows card* (buzz) (audience cheers)Doug: Again -- great idea -- but fundage would be a major issue. Could they even afford Damon Jr. to star? Just asking. Michael? Michael: You know, I happened to have gone on that time traveling trip with Tom and even saw the listing myself... (buzz) (audience laughs) Michael: Too bad we don't whether it was referring to the short lived game show or sitcom. Doug: Given the desperate time The CW is currently living in, more than likely, it's the Chuck Barris show. Sam, please wrap this round up for us. Sam: CW pines for the days when Snooki, JWoww and The Situation dominated the airwaves and want to give them another shot.. (buzz) (audience laughs and applauds) Doug: Ah -- reality show. Sensible. Doug: Mike, I must confess, when you started your answer with "Super-", I thought for sure you were going to say "SuperTrain". (audience laughs) Take it from us here at NBC. *That* would've been "go for broke" desperate. Speaking of broke. (points to scores) (audience laughs) We're scoreless after one round. We'll play Round 2 -- after this. (audience applause; MG-HSH music plays)

(audience cheers) Let's start Round 2. (Doug pushes button on toaster) Okay, scoreless tie. Rules say since George went first in Round 1, Mike, you'll start Round 2 -- by choosing Question A or Question B.

A it is -- and since we're scoreless all the stars get to play both the questions in this round. Let's see if we have better luck with this round's questions -- including this one. Unlucky Louie is so unlucky...
HOW UNLUCKY IS HE?!?!?
...last St. Patrick's Day, instead of a pot of gold, he found a pot of BLANK. (audience laughs and applauds) (think music plays)

(audience groans)Doug: (impersonating Foghorn Leghorn) Son, I say, son, I don't think ya understand the game heah. (audience laughs and applauds)Doug: (impersonating Foghorn Leghorn) The objective heah is to match these celebrities. (more laughter) Doug: Pot of water I think is going to keep the game scoreless. But let's check anyway -- starting with Nels. Nels: (card) Doug: Fool's gold! (buzz) (audience cheers) Ah -- perhaps you were thinking of another game show of some renown. Mark hosted a version once upon a time. Bryan? Bryan: (card) Doug: More fool's gold! (buzz) (audience cheers) I'm just curious, Judge. Had Mike said the technical term "pyrite", what's the result? (ding) Thought so. Mmm'kay. Kevin, did you think of pyrite, fool's gold, or something else? Kevin: He went looking for gold in all the wrong places. He tried a farm and wound up with a pot of (buzz) (audience laughs and applauds) Doug: Bless you for using *that* technical term. (scattered laughter and applause) No water as yet as we go to Tony. Unlucky Louie is so unlucky, last St. Patrick's Day, instead of a pot of gold, he found a pot of BLANK.
Tony: I will fall for this trap. (buzz) (audience cheers)Doug: Pyrite or fool's gold seems to be *the* answer. Fool's gold would wipe you out on that other show. Here, Mike, you'd be at least 300 to the good by now. Michael Koontz? Michael: Leftovers from Christmas (buzz) (audience cheers)Doug: Oh that's a great answer. And, Sam, by some miracle, do you have some H2O? Sam: He found the leprechaun's dinner. (buzz) (scattered cheers) Doug: Good logical answer -- but a mismatch. Doug: Welp -- water didn't work. Still got a question left in Round 3. George, we're about to see what B holds for you.

Still waiting -- and -- (buzz) -- time's up. Well, George, you could score up to $500 with this. Gas prices are so high, Joe Manganiello is having to carpool with BLANK.

(mixed reactions of boos and laughter) Doug: I will say in fairness Joe played the part of one of Spidey's enemies in a movie. So it's possible. But if you think about recent developments -- between "Deal or No Deal Island" here on NBC and, hate to go there, his personal life -- there are better answers. Nels, did you come up with one? Nels: Yep Sofia vergara (buzz) (audience cheers)Doug: Ah, went for the personal life. Mmm'kay. Bryan, what say ye? Bryan: Don’t know much about Joe so... (buzz) (audience cheers)Doug: Ex-wife who *is* Sofia. Divorce was final earlier this year. Kevin, we're sorry we had to hurry. Just for the heck of it, your answer would've have been? Kevin: When in Rome, drive with Sofia. (more cheers) Doug: Okay. Sofia seems to be *the* answer. I'm surprised the banker hasn't come up yet. Gas prices are so high, Joe Manganiello is having to carpool with BLANK.
Doug: Tony, what'cha bringin' to the table? Tony: I smell a unanimous decision coming up... (buzz) (audience cheers) Doug: Lookin' that way. Michael? Michael: (card) (buzz) (audience cheers) Doug: Another former Mrs. Joe. Sam, did you make it unanimous? Sam: Gas prices are so high that Joe had to bite the bullet and carpool with his ex-wife. (buzz) (audience cheers) Doug: I'll be durned. Doug: I figured a lot of Sofias -- but maybe one or two bankers. Oh well. Still scoreless going into Round 3. Someone's gotta match. Find out who's going to Hollywood Squares -- after this. (audience applause; MG-HSH music plays)
