MG Round 3 Question A

 

 


Doug: (grabs A; walks to panel)  This time you have the services
of everyone on the panel.  Last question before Hollywood Squares
-- that is, unless, Matt matches exactly three stars.

Hey, did you hear about the marriage of two antennas?  The wedding 
wasn't all that great -- but the << BLANK >> was excellent.

(a few laughs)  (think music plays)  



 



Doug: OK, they're all set, Matt.  Remember, you need at least
three to stay in business.

Hey, did you hear about the marriage of two antennas?  The wedding 
wasn't all that great -- but the << BLANK >> was excellent.

Matt: Has to be reception.

(audience cheers)

Doug: There ya go.  That's *the* answer.  Now let's see if three
or more folks over here came up with "reception".  Brian, we start
with you.

Brian: I still don't know what was wrong with my last answer. 
But no mistaking this one: RECEPTION

(ding; audience applause)

Doug: And there's one match for Matt.  Speaking of weddings,
Brian and Andrea are celebrating nine years of wedded bliss.

(audience cheers)

Doug: Congrats and may ya'll have many more.  Over to Chad now.

Chad: Okay, okay. I can make up for tanked, I promise.

[ RECEPTION ]

(ding; audience applause)

Doug: There's two.  Will, do you make it three?

Will: Now I thought third round questions were generally easier.

Doug: Well, they are.

Will: Oh well, the [HONEYMOONERS].


(buzz) (audience boos)

Doug: (trying to impersonate Jackie Gleason)  To the moon, Will!  
To the moon!  

(audience laughs)

Doug: Well, Matt, no perfect match bonus.  One match here from the
bottom row will tie.  Two will win.  To Ryan, now.

Ryan: (card)

(MG-HSH variant theme plays)

Doug: That's a match and a win.  All right, Joe Van Ginkel,
this is just for extra lunch money.  What say ye?

Joe Van Ginkel: The definitive answer...

(Matt and Chris shake hands)

Doug: Matt, join me over here please.  Take your place right there on
the blue dot.  Chris, we hope you had fun.

Chris: Thanks.  It was cool being on THIS side of the stage for once.  
Good luck, Matt!

Doug: Hey, the good sportsmanship.  What we always enjoy seeing on
this show.  You're going home with CY$300 plus a piece of the set 
from "How Much Is Enough?"  (audience laughs) A nice hand for Chris 
Wolvie.

(audience cheers) (MG desks roll toward stage left)  (rest of panel
rolls in from stage right)
