I kinda like Kyle Troup because he looks like Bob Ross. I also like Jakob Butturf because of his name and bowling style.

Oh, well, I'm more of an old school guy. Pete Weber, Marshall Holman, Billy Hardwick.
Stacey: That reminds me. Didn't you tell me that Billy Hardwick's son is hosting a game show in your old timeslot on that other network?
Greg: Yes, High Rollers. Hope y'all have it DVRed. Good luck to you, Kyle and Frank.
Stacey: Finally, there's Brendan. G'day, Brendan. You enjoy photography. What things have you been photographing lately? Any specialties?

I always make a point of taking pelican photos at the beach. Beautiful birds - until they snatch fried chicken from your sister's hands. (True story that.)

Greg: I wouldn't know, I don't have a sister. Stacey: But you can understand that a pelican could snatch fried chicken out of your hands. That's terrible.Greg: Yep, a waste of chicken. In some cultures, that's considered familicide. But in Australia, you must have a lot of great beaches to choose from. Good luck to you. Stacey, for the first time on Fox, you have the honors. Stacey: Thank you, Greg. Good luck, everyone. $20 to start.(the board initializes)
Greg: Alright. We will see you at the first Instant Bargain. (Stacey walks off) OK then, you should know how this works. I ask the questions, right answer adds $5, wrong answer deducts $5. You should be careful though, because starting tonight, the lowest-scoring player at the end of Round 3's Fame Game will be eliminated from play. So, good luck. Here we go. 1. $ale of the Century, as we know it, debuted in America in 1983. Who was the host? 2. The 2005 documentary film The Smartest Guys in the Room was about what troubled US corporation? 3. What French royal subject married Marie Antoinette? 4. What does a herpetologist study? 5. What symbol of peace surrounds the globe on the United Nations flag? 6. What song by Don McLean talks about the day Buddy Holly died?(buzzcodes from 1-100 and answers via PM, please)

(Sarah, Stacey and Alyson have a teddy bear picnic with these "Care Bears")Stacey: Have you ever wanted to have a teddy bear picnic? Well, here is your chance with this collection of Care Bears. All in mint condition, with all the tags and certificates of authenticity, these friends will cheer up your life or the life of someone special. And to buy some decorations for the picnic is a $1,000 gift card to Party City. Normally priced at $1,525...
This can be yours tonight on $ale for only...
$6!
(audience cheers as I join them) Well, folks. Welcome to Fox! We're giving away Care Bears now! (I laugh in embarrassment) Well, let's see if we can handle this with some dignity. First off, allow me to introduce two of our newest models on the show. You may not have seen them, but you've definitely heard them. Sarah Natochenny and Alyson Rosenfeld. (audience cheers) Now, would somebody like to make me an offer on these Care Bears?

Well, you've got a chance to make your sister really happy, Kyle. Tell you what, you're both $10 ahead of Frank, I'll drop the price to $5. You'd be behind the other by one question.
Now, do you have any food at this picnic?
Sarah: We sure don't.
Greg: Well then... (I pull some money out of my suit pocket) I will include, one, two, three, four, $500 in cash. That's over $2,000 in cash, party goods, and Care Bears for $5... unless I get a better offer or someone buzzes in.

Sorry, I just removed my note.
I liked the Care Bears but I wasn't a big fan. My young nephew prefers monster trucks and Spiderman though.
But I might surprise my sister with it, so I'll go for it. (Hits buzzer)

(audience cheers) He's going to buy! (the three models applaud and cheer, I walk back to my lectern after giving the money to Brendan)
Frank: $20 Kyle: $30 Brendan: $25
There's your $500 in cash. And as promised, Kyle leads Brendan by $5. Back to the questions.
1. What two states share a border with Florida? 2. Good Wives is the sequel to what novel by Louisa May Alcott? 3. Pretzel and potato chip company Snyder's is based out of what Pennsylvania city? 4. Ronald Reagan made headlines in 1980 for claiming that 80 percent of air pollution comes from what?

1. What two states share a border with Florida? (buzzcode: 29) *Frank buzzes in (35)*Frank? Frank: Georgia and AlabamaThat is right. Frank gets on the board. (ding) Frank: $25 Kyle: $30 Brendan: $25
2. Good Wives is the sequel to what novel by Louisa May Alcott? (buzzcode: 36) *Kyle buzzes in (16)*Kyle? Kyle: Good Women(buzzer)Makes sense, but no. Little Women. And we have a three-way tie. Frank: $25 Kyle: $25 Brendan: $25
3. Pretzel and potato chip company Snyder's is based out of what Pennsylvania city? (buzzcode: 62) *Kyle buzzes in (70)*Kyle? Kyle: HanoverThat is exactly right, you're back to $30. (ding) Frank: $25 Kyle: $30 Brendan: $25
4. Ronald Reagan made headlines in 1980 for claiming that 80 percent of air pollution comes from what? (buzzcode: 45) *Kyle buzzes in (32)*Kyle? Kyle: Hydrocarbons(buzzer)No, it was plants and trees, although to be fair, Reagan aides later said the then-presidential candidate had been misquoted and was referring only to certain types of pollutants, not to all air pollution. Still, Ronnie said plants and trees, you lose $5. Frank: $25 Kyle: $25 Brendan: $25
[FAME GAME]Time now for the Fame Game. Our three players are fighting for control of the Fame Game board, which contains all sorts of surprises, prizes, and the all-important $10 Money Card. But since this is the first show on Fox with the new set, here's just a sample of what you might see on the board. We'll have the $10, $15, and $25 spaces added to the board in time. We'll hide the $5,000 or Try Again space later in Round 3. In Rounds 1 and 2, we have the Major Wager. That's our answer to a certain Sony game show's "Daily Double". There's the Double Play, which doubles the value of the next set of questions. Decision, where you can take a sure cash amount or gamble it for something bigger or smaller. Lockout locks your opponent out of a set of questions, and Bonus Pick is quite helpful should you win the game. And there may be other surprises as time goes on. Let's shuffle everything up and hide it. Now, how do players get a crack at the board? They solve a word puzzle that leads to a famous person, place, thing, etc. etc. We're looking for a famous PERSON. (whoosh as the puzzle board appears on screen)
[_____________] [_____________] [_____________]
[_____________] [_____________] [_____________]
[PERSON]
(# of clues and buzzcode, please; the person with the lowest bid of clues gets first crack at it)

[___BEFORE____] [__"CHEERS",__] [_____SHE_____]
[___PLAYED____] [_"PASSWORD___] [____PLUS"____]
[KIRSTIE ALLEY]
(ding)The late Kirstie Alley is correct! (audience cheers) Full puzzle reads, "Before Cheers, she played Password Plus". She was also a contestant on Match Game, and made her film debut in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. How she ended up on Cheers and not Star Trek: The Next Generation, I will never know. Stacey, where is the $10 Money Card?
