TIC TAC DOUGH [Synd.] - Season 2, Episode 7

[tmann3x]

Welcome to the "Tuesday" edition of Tic Tac Dough.


Right now, we have a game in progress between Michael Foy and our current champion Kourtney Wilson.  And in just one day, Kourtney has a total of $19,640 in cash and merchandise.


While I'm waiting words on these two, I'm looking for Nels Snesrud.  In our previous episode, he was absent... but I have decided to have him back since he's still eligible.


Let me know when you're all set and ready.

[thunderwheeler501]

Checking in, Tony.

[thunderwheeler501]

And by the way, it's FOY, not Koontz.

My apologies.  I'll fix it.

Checking as well.

[OPENING THEME]


Bob Hilton:  From Hollywood... it's everybody's game of strategy, knowledge, and fun.  It's...

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]


And now, here's our host... Tony Lane!


[MORE CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

*host enters center stage*

Tony:  Thank you, Bob Hilton.  Hello, everybody... and welcome to Tic Tac Dough.

Do not adjust your set.  Since CBS is using our stage over at the Haven Studios for a pilot episode with Drew Barrymore, we're being recorded at the KTLA Studios in LA for this episode only.  Major kudos to Travis Griffin for his art direction of the Caldwell set.

In our previous episode, we had a game in progress with our two players.  Bob, please tell us about them.

[CONTESTANTS' INTRO]



Bob: Our current champion, who's winnings total in cash and prizes $19,640, is a fast food restaurant cashier. Meet KOURTNEY WILSON.


[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]





And his opponent is a part-time worker from Fort Frances, Ontario, Canada. Meet MICHAEL FOY.



[END OF CONTESTANTS' INTRO]

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

Tony: Guys, welcome back to the show.  Michael, we begin with you.  Please tell us about yourself.

[thunderwheeler501]

I am a part-time worker from Fort Frances, Ontario, Canada. I work on behalf of a social services organization devoted to helping people with disabilities such as autism.

[tmann3x]

Good luck to you, Mr. Foy.


Kourtney, please tell everyone about yourself.

[pathfinder20]

I am a shift leader at a national sandwich chain and been there for 15 years. I like to learn about other languages, collecting, interior design, music and other things.

[tmann3x]

Good luck to you, Kourtney.

Now that we've gotten to know them, let's play Tic Tac Dough.


[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

We had a game in progress before we had went off the air.  And here are the nine subjects they will be playing on...






[CATEGORIES REVEAL]

They are... U.S. HISTORY, FILM ACTORS, 1-HIT WONDERS, BASEBALL, ANIME, GAME SHOWS, FAMOUS REDHEADS... the JUMP-IN CATEGORY is a special toss-up question for both players.  If one of them gets the question right will earn a box... and finally SOAP OPERAS.



Right now, let's see what the board looks like...

[Xs AND Os APPEAR]

On the board, we have 2 Xs and 3 Os.  And the pot still stands at...

[DING]

$1,250.  Let's shuffle the categories.



[CATEGORIES SHUFFLE]

Now that we're back in the game, Kourtney gets to pick a category.  Select, if you may.

[pathfinder20]

Game Shows to block.

[tmann3x]

If you answer both questions correctly, you'll block and we'll add $500 to the pot.  Here are your two questions.



GAME SHOWS - $500

A. What game show had married couples playing a modified version of Blackjack against each other?

B. Name the game show host.


Here's your extra time.


[THINK CUE]



OK... I'll give you the first question and then you get to answer it.



A. What game show had married couples playing a modified version of Blackjack against each other?

[pathfinder20]

Gambit.

[tmann3x]

Correct.


Now... to block--



B. Name the game show host.

[pathfinder20]

Wink Martindale.

[tmann3x]

You block!

[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]


Wink Martindale was also the host of the revamped Tic Tac Dough back in 1978.  Let's place that X in the center box.

[DING]


We now have $1,750 in the pot.  Let's shuffle.




[CATEGORIES SHUFFLE]

Michael, it's your turn.  Pick a category.

[thunderwheeler501]

Michael, my apologies for the error.  Here's what the board looks like now.

[thunderwheeler501]

I'll do US History for the block. You may have to speak with one of the board technicians too after the show!

[tmann3x]

I'll take note of that when we go to a commercial.

[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]

Anyways... if you answer this question correctly, you will block.  Here's your question.



U.S. HISTORY - $250

Out of Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, and Nevada, what was the first state to allow women's suffrage?

[thunderwheeler501]

Wyoming.

[tmann3x]

Correct, and you get the block!

[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]

[DING]

After the block, we have $2,000 in the pot.  Let's shuffle the categories.




[CATEGORIES SHUFFLE]

Kourtney... select a category.

[pathfinder20]

Soap Operas to block please.

[tmann3x]

Answer this question correctly, you'll block.  Here's your question.



SOAP OPERAS - $250

This soap was all about the mysterious happenings in Monticello. Some of the main characters included Raven Whitney, Jody Travis, and Nicole Cavanaugh.



To block, what was the name of this great show?

[pathfinder20]

The Edge of Night.

[tmann3x]

You block!

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

[DING]

$2,250 in the pot.  Let's shuffle one more time.





[CATEGORY SHUFFLES]

Michael, you have one category left...

If you get the answer right in 1-Hit Wonders, not only you'll get the block... but we'll also have a tie game.  Here comes your question.




1-HIT WONDERS - $250

In 1962 this group had "A Wonderful Dream" that their record made the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It did. Then they woke up and never made the Top 40 again.



To block and for a tie game, who were they?

[thunderwheeler501]

The Majors.

[tmann3x]

Michael...
































































































































you're right and we have a tie game!

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

[DING]


We now have $2,500 in the pot.  Good time for us to take a quick breather.

Coming up after the break, we'll deliver a new set of categories as the pot continues to grow.  The winner will be playing Beat The Dragon.  Stay right there... we'll come right back with more of Tic Tac Dough in just a moment.
