Here's the question for $600...
As a result of the Indian Removal Act of 1830, the Cherokee and four other Southeastern Indian tribes were forced to march over 1,200 miles to Indian Territory. Because it caused the deaths of over 4,000 Cherokee, historians refer to this tragic event by what three-word name?

You're certainly on your way to a record. Let's see how you do on this $800 question first.
The Cherokee language was the first Native American language to develop a written system. The written system of Cherokee, developed independently of Europeans, was invented by a man whose name sounds like a type of tree. Name him.

Right! (End of round cue plays, applause) Man, John, you were just dominant that round. Challengers, don't you worry. In Round Two, we're going to double the dollar values, so you can very easily catch up. Here's where we stand: John at $8,200, Matt at $1,600, Glen at $1,400. (Theme plays) When we come back, we'll play Round Two. Stay with us!
NOTE: Glen sent me a PM stating that as of 8/29, he will be gone for about one month. Therefore, he is unable to continue this game. I will open up the game to anyone. You will take Glen's place, inherit his score, and (to sweeten the pot) get to return on the next episode, win or lose! Who would like to step up and replace Glen? Oh, yeah...since Glen is in third, whoever takes his place will start Round Two.

I would like to think so, no one's stepped up to replace Glen though.

Darion, you'll replace Glen, inherit his score, and continue. Further, win or lose, you will play the next episode! I will restart in a few moments.

(Theme plays)
Don Morrow: We're back with more of Jonathan Darrall and "The Challengers"!
Me: Thanks, Don. Glen had a family emergency to tend to, so he will be replaced in this game by Darion. Darion, you'll inherit Glen's score of $1,400, and you'll appear on our next show, win or lose, to play a complete game. We hope things are going well for Glen. John, things are going well for you, with a huge lead at $8,200. Matt is in second with $1,600. Darion, you have $1,400. As the trailing player, you get the first choice of subjects. Remember, the dollar values double, and if all three of you choose the same category within a subject, you could add up to $4,800 in a hurry. Darion, let's look at the subjects as you ponder your choices (subject reveal cue plays).

(CLANGA-CLANGA-CLANGA!) These questions concern a little bit of wordplay. They are not necessarily about the game of poker, but you'll get the idea once you hear the questions. In the meantime, choose a hand (BONG-BONG-BONG!).
THREE OF A KIND for $600
FLUSH for $800
FULL HOUSE for $1,000

Let's see what everyone chose.
MATT ($1,600): THREE OF A KIND for $600
DARION ($1,400): FULL HOUSE for $1,000
JOHN ($8,200): FULL HOUSE for $1,000
Matt, you're the holdout and you will go first.
On this 1980s NBC game show, teams of three with a common profession or characteristic battled to list answers to questions posed by host Bill Cullen. At least, that was originally the case, since the show later featured celebrities among the teams, leading to a ratings decline. Name the show.

That's the one! You're up to $2,200. John and Darion, step up to the $1,000 challenge (send me a buzz code 1-100 by PM, you may PASS to avoid a penalty) on FULL HOUSE.
The popular 1980s-1990s sitcom "Full House" revolved around Bob Saget as Danny Tanner, a widow raising three girls with his brother-in-law and best friend in what Western U.S. city?

Right! You are at $2,400 now, Darion. Matt is at $2,200, while John is still way in the lead. Since Darion made the most money on that last subject, he'll get to choose the next one. What would you like?
