Gordon: Whats up with you and butter?
Don: Eww.
Chico: I don't know. You ever watch Food Network? They use tons of the stuff.
Gordon: How much of that stuff do you use for your Katamari Damacy Cake?
Chico: (Shrugs)
Cheryl: You think I can afford one of your commercial breaks..
Gordon: The butter should be...what, $2,95?
Chico: About that, yeah. And the rest goes on a gift certificate... Welcome
back... Guess what... Estilo Trato que te estamos dando!
Jason: The game where I never iwin.
Gordon: Here's how the game works. I assume, Cheryl, that you are familiar with
Let's Make a Deal?
Cheryl: Yes
Gordon: Well, this is our version. You can keep what you have, or trade for
what's behind curtains and boxes. The catch is that everything in a box or
curtain is based on the events of the week.
Cheryl: Ok
Chico: For example... I have a gift for each of you.
Jason: Thank you
Gordon: Goody
Mike: Alright!
Don: Sweet.
Chico: Each one of you is getting two tickets to go see The Price is Right Live
at Ballys Las Vegas! They run $60. BUT!
Jason: Uh oh
Gordon: There's always a but, isn't there?
Chico: And here's the rub... there's something attached to that ticket. I won't
say what. But it has to do with TPIR. Now, do you want to hold onto that
ticket? Or do you want to trade for what's en la caja pequena that Gordon just
happens to have here.? Here's a hint...It has a picture of Mel and Shandi on it.
Jason: I will keep the tickets
Gordon: Keeping the tickets too
Don: I'll also keep the tickets.
Cheryl: Cheryl's keeping the tickets
Mike: I will keep them too.
Chico: Everyone passes up what, Ghost of Jay Stewart?
TGOJS: A dog with a homemade sweater that says "I (heart) Chuck!!" It comes with
an already used Dick's Sporting Goods card. Every season starts with Dick's, but
this game starts with... un CHASCO!
Jason: YES!
Gordon: Whoo-hoo
Chico: So no one gets a dog, a sweater or an already-used gift card. It goes
back in the Playmania vaults. While the Ghost of Jay Stewart brings out a bigger
box... with Flavor Flav's picture on it. Who's trading?
Gordon: Ack! What is this, the Clearance Sale of Doom?
Jason: Nope. Still keeping the tickets
Don: No box for me. *Clutches his tickets*
Gordon: I dont want a megaloogie. Keeping the Tix.
Cheryl: I'm holding on to these tickets for dear life
Chico: No box, no box, no box, no box. Mike?
Mike: I...willgoforthebox.... I feel very dirty for doing that.
Jason: You are a sick man, Mike.
Chico: Mike is the only one going for the box. And... You gave up your
ticket to TPIR Live for... a grandfather clock!
Gordon: Oooh
Mike: Whoo! No more sundials for me!
Jason: Makes sense.
Cheryl: not bad
TGOJS: This Ridgeway clock comes with a brass pediment and Arabic numerals. It
features Westminster chimes and was given away last week on TPIR. Vale un...
$2325!
Jason: Nice job Mike.
Chico: So not bad for Mike...
Mike: Thank you
Cheryl: Congrats to you
Chico: But we're not done. I have... a video screen up... I borrowed it
from LMAD90. It has Bil Dwyer's picture on it. Keep the tickets... or go to Bil?
Mike: Watch Chico and Gordon run when I try claiming my item.
Jason: I am still holding on.
Gordon: I have to go for it. Anything with Bill Dwyer is a keeper. Especially a
Baby Dodgeball.
Chico: It's not Kim Estrada, Gordon.
Gordon: Maybe it's a sexy Battlebot.
Don: Hmm... I'll try swapping the tickets.
Cheryl: I'm keeping my tickets
Mike: I'm more than content with my clock.
Chico: So Gordon and Don are going for it... You two gave up your tickets for
TPIR Live for...A trip to Japan!
Gordon: Whoo-hoo!
Don: Cool!
Cheryl: dang
Jason: HUH?
Chico: Listen, this is relevant
TGOJS: You and a guest will fly round-trip coach from Los Angeles to Tokyo,
where you'll spend six days and seven nights at the Miyako Hotel Tokyo. While
there, we're throwing in two tickets to go see the newly-renewed Dirty Rotten
Cheater, the Japanese version of the American game! Vale... $6160!
Don: Alright!
Gordon: Ah - NOW I get it, Nice. DRC lives In Japan, eh?
Jason: Makes sense...I didn't know.
Cheryl: that's special
Chico: So Jason and Cheryl still have their tickets... while Gordon and Don are
going to Japan, and Mike has a clock...You know what I have?
Gordon: What do you have, Chico?
Chico: I have a curtain. Cortina numero 2. It has JD Roth's picture on it.
Gordon: Ooooh
Mike: I wonder if this decision will be unan1mous
Jason: Nope. Still keeping the tickets.
Chico: Deal... wait, that's another show.
Gordon: Keeping the Trip
Don: I'll also hang on to the trip.
Cheryl: Im keeping my tickets too
Mike: I'll hold onto my clock.
Chico: So everyone's keeping stuff. This is what you passed up! It's a shopping
spree from The Discovery Channel Store!
Cheryl: No, I should have said Deal, I feel it on this one. Dang!
TGOJS: Just because Endurance is ending its run on NBC doesn't mean that you
can't pick up anything from Discovery Kids, TLC, Discovery Channel, or other
networks in the family, because this prize is as good as cash at any Discovery
Channel Store or at Discoverychannelstore.com! Vale... $1000!
Gordon: Cool
Cheryl: That would have been fun
Jason: Not bad.
Chico: So no one has a dog with a sweater or a Mythbusters DVD pack...Darn.
Gordon: Awwww
Chico: Okay, you guys are happy right now, right?
Gordon: Very
Chico: Because I have one more deal...I might go crazy here. Cortina numero 1 or
Cortina numero 3. 1 has a picture of Howie Mandel next to it. 3 Has a
picture of Ryan Seacrest.
Cheryl: I'll go with Howie
Gordon: I will never hear the end of it if I get stuck with a Chasco. I'm
keeping the Trip. I want to play with the Pachinko machines anyways.
Don: I'm quite content with heading to Japan.
Mike: I will hold onto my prize.
Chico: Jason, you're the only one with a ticket...
Jason: And I am going to hold onto it...cause I think I know what's behind the
Howie curtain.
Chico: Okay... just because of our special guest here, who's just been an
absolute delight...I'm going to open her curtain ... right after this...
Cheryl: NOOOO
Jason: LOL
Mike: heheheh
(Brought to you by Kellie Pickler's Peppered Pickles. Now you can at least be as
tart as she is. If Kellie Pickler picked a peck of peppered pickles, how many
peppered pickles would Kellie Pickler Pick?)
Chico: Back from the break. Cortina numero 1 has.... A Hummer!
Don: Wow...
TGOJS: A 2006 Hummer H3 comes with standard package including power windows,
power locks, and power seats! And in the trunk, we're throwing in $17,000! Esta
Hummer vale...$46,500!
Gordon: Yay Cheryl!
Chico: So you come with $5, you end with $46,500!
Cheryl: Yippee! Finally!
Gordon: Too bad it's only internet money and not worth squat in real life, but
if we COULD give you all that, we would.
Cheryl: That's okay
Chico: Of course. No one had 3. What's behind 3?
Un superpollo! This giant chicken is fit for meals, scratching, and rodeos! We
also included a scratched up copy of Robot Chicken: Seaosn 1. Vale un...
ch-ch-ch-CHASCO!
Jason: YES! I was going to go with Ryan...but I felt bad.
Gordon: Come on. You'd ruin your perfect Chasco record.
Jason: I honestly thought you were going with the Pony for Howie.
Chico: Nope.
Gordon: So Jason is actually going to win something good, eh?
Jason: Well I dont think I am going to get a chasco this time...am I?
Chico: But Jason, you have two tickets to go see TPIR. Want to know what you
were holding onto?
Jason: Yup.
Chico: Well, attached to the tickets... is a malfunctioning motherboard from the
showcase featuring Glitch the Robot.
Gordon: Yay!
Jason: Damn. :)
Cheryl: Jason, take it from me - You win some and lose some
Jason: I know.
Chico: But you do get to go see TPIR Live. Meanwhile, we're going right into the
Big Finish! Who's leaving on Idol?
Gordon: Bucky gets Bucked
Jason: Bucky
Chico: Like a giant Superpollo.
Cheryl: Paris
Chico: Okay. Al-Jazeera is fronting a game show that blends basketball and
entertainment. The top prize: $60 million. They want to export this to other
markets. Thoughts?
Cheryl: it will do very well
Don: Could be interesting.
Jason: No it isn't.
Mike: I get my entertainment at least 82 times a year by watching basketball and
his name is LeBron James. Pass. (No pun intended.)
Jason: It's another propaganda tool from them.
Gordon: It reminds me of a sports cable show called million dollar shot of a
Lifetime. That didn't work. Neither will this.
Don: Then again, I haven't been watching much basketball since the Raptors began
to falter...
Chico: That's what happens when a Carolina product leaves town, Don.
Cheryl: ;-)
Chico: And speaking of leaving, someone left us mail!
Mike: Wuthrich again?
Chico: No.
Mike: Darn.
Chico: This one's from Robyn LeSage. Thanks, Robyn!
Jason: Thanks Robyn
Chico: Mike... Pay attention.
Cheryl: Thanks Robyn
Mike: I'm taking notes. Or should I just copy the URL to the clipboard?
TO: WLTI
FROM: Robyn LeSage
Just
writing on a whim, since you seem to be a "tell-all" for game shows. I was
on the Price is Right in 1988 and have lost the VHS tape of the show.
|
Gordon: The answer is Yes, Mike. Copy the URL to
the Clipboard.
TO: WLTI
FROM: Robyn LeSage
I
called CBS and they don't keep any VHS this long. I didn't keep in touch
with anybody else on the show.any suggestions on how to get a copy of my
show?
|
Chico: *looks at Mike*
Gordon: lol
Cheryl: My sister was on TPIR too... I suggest you offer a reward for that tape
Chico: Can't. Illegal. You go to jail for that.
Mike: But surely someone out there in Internetland has a copy of it they'd like
to swap.
Cheryl: There you go
Mike: And where should you go to do that? Uncle Mikey's Happy Time Game Show
Trading Post Funville, of course. All you need to do is take the 101, head to
the Slausen cutoff, cut off your slausen, and look for the giant neon dollar
sign.
Chico: Go to classicgameshows.com, click on trading post, be detailed, and
someone'll help you out, I'm sure. Good luck!
Mike: OR! Go here:
http://members2.boardhost.com/gameshowtrading/ And tell 'em Uncle Mikey sent
ya.
Chico: Will she get a cookie?
Mike: She might get something better--that episode on videotape or DVD. I would
also encourage Robyn to visit Golden-Road.net, as a number of TPiR fans there
have extensive videotape collections.
Chico: Yay! With that, time to close up shop once more... BIG thanks to Cheryl
Jackson :)
Jason: APPLAUSE
Don: You rock, Cheryl!
Cheryl: No You Rock!
Mike: Excellent job, Cheryl. You made my entire weekend.
Cheryl: Thanks a million, I love you guys
Jason: Love your attitude. Your class is amazing.
Chico: Also thanks to Don Harpwood, Jason Block, Mike Klauss, Travis Eberle,
Alex Davis, and the Academy...
Cheryl: Ahhh, I feel so much love here, I hate to leave.
Gordon: Cheryl, fell free to come here anytime. We would love to have you in May
for WLTI #100
Cheryl: Pencil me in
Gordon: That, as they say, is that. For everyone at Game Show Newsnet, this is
Gordon Pepper, saying Game Over and...
Chico: spread the love :)
Mike: And don't spread any more ponies.
Gordon: Or pony manure
