Almost time to start another Net Match Game - Hollywood Squares Hour. Before we do, some notes... \ Rick Morris (no relation to either co-host) returns with two wins and CY$77,750. He'll play against the winner of the forthcoming Match Game. If Rick can win Hollywood Squares outright or score at least CY$22,250, including Secret Square winnings, he'll clinch a berth in our tournament of champions. \ This is Game 46. So if you played as a civilian in Game 43, 44 or 45, please sit on your hands and let someone else play. Can't remember when you played? Just go to www.nmghsh.cjb.net or www.dougmorris.net/nmghsh and click on "Archives". \ As noted earlier, we have a new semi-regular. Gordon Pepper from Game Show NewsNet takes over for Tom Sabbatelli. Also on the panel are some old friends: Dean Scungio, David Hammond, Joe "Game Show Man" Van Ginkel and Tammy "Howdy, Hi" Warner. ...now it's qualifying time. The two players closest to the right answer, high or low, compete in Match Game with the winner advancing to Hollywood Squares. The question... On July 22nd, 2011, at 9:30pm Central, we watched a GSN rerun of "Family Feud". Two members of the winning family didn't reach the goal of 200 points. How much money did the family receive as a consolation prize? Please respond to the nearest multiple of five dollars. (time passes) And that's time. The two players combined for 108 points -- meaning...
(ding) ...a payoff of a dreadful, a depressing $540. Gotta get in a "Weakest Link" reference before Anne Robinson retires from the show. Who's the closest? Raymond Bowler $665 It's Raymond. OK, you'll play against... ehatfield $820 ...this person. If I may have your first and last name, please (even if it's a pseudonym).====================================================================== Glenn Bowman: "Two and a Half Men, Two Broke Girls and a Pizza Place" (audience laughs) will not be seen at this time -- so that we may bring you two challengers, five stars, a champ, three more stars and a couple of Morrises. ======================================================================

Ryan Morris
and
Doug MorrisDoug: Thanks, Glenn Bowman. Helloooooooo, everybody and welcome back to the Net Match Game - Hollywood Squares Hour. Hello, stars.
Ryan: And hello to you at home. Rick Morris -- again, no relation to any of us -- is up to CY$77,750 in winnings. He's either CY$22,250 or an outright win away from the tournament of champions. He awaits the winner of tonight's Match Game. Doug: Been awhile since we've had Joe and Tammy aboard. They both play the game well -- as do Dean and David. Ryan and Chad, as always, complete our panel for Match Game. Let the games begin! (audience cheers) (Ryan and Doug shake hands) (Ryan sits in the Morris chair on the panel) (Doug walks over to the Match Game desks)
Doug: Keep that applause going for our challengers, Raymond Weaver and Evan Hatfield. (more cheers) Doug: We'll chat later. But let's start Match Game. As you know, the objective here to match as many...
Doug: ...of these high rolling card sharks as you possibly can. (audience laughs) Doug: Each time you match a star, you earn CY$100. If you max out and match everyone, we'll elevate your score to CY$1000. High scorer after three rounds advances to Hollywood Squares to face Rick. The high scorer there plays the Super Match -- which could lead to a payoff of CY$100,000.MG ROUND 1 BEGINS
