Doug: (grabs B; walks to panel) Ah, a current events question -- of sorts. As you know by now, Bob Barker is retiring as host of "The Price is Right". Thankfully, gossip columnist Roma Garrett reports CBS has declined << BLANK'S >> offer to succeed him.
(MG '7x cowbell think music plays)
Doug: OK, Michael. Let's see if you can motorcycle your way to a tie ballgame. I should note in the event Michael maxes out before Round 3, we'll keep playing Match Game -- since, ya know, we don't want questions going to waste. Anyway... As you know by now, Bob Barker is retiring as host of "The Price is Right". Thankfully, gossip columnist Roma Garrett reports CBS has declined << BLANK'S >> offer to succeed him. Michael: I will go with the former host of Net Price Is Right, Jay Lewis. (boo-birds from the crowd) Doug: Oh, Michael. Jay knows the whole thing front and back. But we'll see starting with Troy. Troy: I think we're all better off now that CBS has turned down [PATRICK WAYNE] (buzz) Doug: You know something? YOU'RE RIGHT!!!!!!! (audience laughs) Jay, something tells me you're not going to vote against yourself. Jay Lewis: You are *NOT* the winner! +--------+ | MAURY | | POVICH | +--------+ (buzz) (audience laughs) Doug: He wasn't bad on "Twenty One". But he'd surely be out of place on "Price". Jay number two? Jay Cross: A lot of great choices here, but I am going to go with... (card) Paris Hilton! (buzz) (audience laughs) Doug: Shoot, she has no sense of retail at all. After all, she thinks all they sell at Wal-Mart is walls. Over to Ryan now. As you know by now, Bob Barker is retiring as host of "The Price is Right". Thankfully, gossip columnist Roma Garrett reports CBS has declined << BLANK'S >> offer to succeed him. Michael said Jay Lewis and you said? Ryan: I think I've got a pretty good answer. +==============+ | Donald Trump | +==============+ (buzz) (smattering of applause) Doug: See, I was thinking Rosie O'Donnell. So that's in the ballpark -- given their war of words. Over to Tammy. Tammy: If you ever saw his performance on "Beat the Clock," [WIN ELLIOTT]. (buzz) Doug: Insert your own Patrick Wayne joke here. (a few laughs) Dean? Dean: Looking for a well-known, young-ish guy who may appeal to the young audience and is already on CBS? How about... +---------+ | CHARLIE | | SHEEN | +---------+ (buzz) Doug: No machine for me, thanks. Well...
PATRICK WAYNE | MAURY POVICH | PARIS HILTON
DONALD TRUMP | WIN ELLIOTT | CHARLIE SHEENMichael's response: JAY LEWIS
Doug: ...Michael, hang in there. Longtime viewers of NMG-HSH may remember the story George Davidson shared with us when he was a contestant on the original "Match Game - Hollywood Squares Hour" series. Halfway into Round 1 of MG, his opponent managed to max out on the first question, he rallied to tie and later win that Match Game and at least a couple of Hollywood Squares. If he can do it, anyone can. See if Michael can make a comeback -- after this. (audience applause; MG-HSH music plays)MG ROUND 2 BEGINS
