MG Round 1 Question A
Doug: (pushes button on magic toaster) John, you came closer to the secret number in our contestant call. That gives you the right to go first. A or B? John: I'll take A, please.
Doug: A's comin' right up. (grabs A; walks to panel) BTW, we should mention our MG writers -- who double as HS semi-regulars -- and I have come up with questions related to the holidays for this go-round of Match Game. So, we hope you'll enjoy them. Little Rotten Rodney is SOOOOOOO rotten... Everyone else in unison: HOW ROTTEN IS HE?!?!?! Doug: ...he's getting something worse than a lump of coal in his stocking for Christmas. Because he's been such a bad boy this year, he's getting a lump of << BLANK >> instead.
(J! think music plays)
Doug: OK, John, first chance to get some triangles and moolah on the board. Little Rotten Rodney is SOOOOOOO rotten, he's getting something worse than a lump of coal in his stocking for Christmas. Because he's been such a bad boy this year, he's getting a lump of << BLANK >> instead. John: Little Rotten Rodney's getting a lump of DOG CRAP in his stocking. (audience applause) Doug: They seem to like that answer. Let's see if the panel likes that one. We start with Mark. Mark: He was bad, wasn't he? So bad he got a lump of (flip) ***SANTA'S EXCREMENT*** Doug: Oh dear, Judge? (buzz) (audience boos) I was afraid of that. You were specific in dog doo and Mark was specific with Santa poo. So, that's a mismatch. (more boos) Uhh, before the natives get restless, Jay? Jay: I want to start by thanking everyone who played in 'NPiRs 5th Anniversary show. (audience cheers) Doug: Yes indeed. As a part of Team NPiR, I hope it lasts another five years and beyond. :) Jay: Anywho, back to this game...he gets a lump of +-------+ | DOODY | +-------+ in his stocking. And by doody, I mean poop, and by poop I mean manure and by manure I mean feces and by feces I mean shhhhhhoot I forgot what I was gonna say. (audience laughs) Doug: OK, judge. Will dog doo and just doo match? (ding) OK! (audience cheers) Well, that was interesting. John's got CY$100. Robert, talk to me. Robert: I love what you've done to the set Doug. How long did it take you to decorate it? Doug: Eh, took us all about an hour and a half. (audience laughs) 'Bout the same amount of time it took to refurbish the original set. (audience laughs) Robert: Anyway, Rotten Rodney found what he had in his stocking out the hard way. He reached right in there and pulled out a... +-----------+ | WET LUMP | | OF DOG DOO| +-----------+ ... from his stocking! (ding; audience applause) Doug: Now that's an *exact* match! Robert: Just hope he doesn't come here, showing off his presents. That'd ruin our holiday cheer. :) (audience laughs) Doug: Well the judge may have ruined some cheer with that ruling with Mark. Anyhow, we turn to Ryan now. Little Rotten Rodney is SOOOOOOO rotten, he's getting something worse than a lump of coal in his stocking for Christmas. Because he's been such a bad boy this year, he's getting a lump of << BLANK >> instead. Ryan: Rodney is getting himself a lump of... +------+ | Poo | +------+ (ding; audience applause) Doug: John's up to 300 now. Matt Cicero, what say ye? Matt: I said that Rotten Rodney got a lump of +---------------+ | Reindeer | | Poop | +---------------+ Doug: Oh dear, I think I know what's coming. (buzz) (boo-birds again) Dog doo and deer doo mismatch. Sorry. And Sir Keith, are you adding to John's score or some controversy? Keith: On this show, I've always been told to trust my first instinct. My answer is... DOO-DOO (ding; audience applause) Doug: There ya go. Let's re-crap the scoring. Uhh... (audience laughs) I mean reCAP the scoring...SANTA'S EXCREMENT | DOODY | DOG DOO
POO | REINDEER POOP | DOO-DOO
Doug: Well, John, I hate to think our judge will end up re-creating the school riot incident of the original MG. However 400 is something to be proud of for the first at-bat with two more to come.MG ROUND 1 CONTINUES
