Board Game Frenzy season 1

[Gameheadz]

Kerri: We gave you this question before the break...

THE 'CHUTES' IN 'CHUTES & LADDERS' WAS ACTUALLY FIRST NAMED AFTER WHAT DANGEROUS ANIMAL?

A: Snakes. Snakes????? Why does it have to be Snakes?

(Screams a bit) Oh, it was Snakes & Ladders. It was orginiated in India.

(fade into set; applause)

David: We have Gena, Larry and Bristol all set for elimination. We'll have a roll-off first to determine the bottom 2. Once we hit tht bottom 2, we'll keep rolling and taking turns until they land on a spot that is eliminated. The 2nd to leav will get $25,000 for their charity. Let's get to it.

(lights dim to black)

(Holographic die rolls a 4)

Gena goes first and rolls a 4....lands on the numbers...(bing!) and is safe.

(holographic die rolls a 3)

Larry gets a 3...lands on the space next to her..........(buzzer; audience groans) In the bottom 2. Will Bristol join him? Let's find out.

(holographic die rolls a 3)

Bristol lands on teh same spot...(buzzer; audience groans) and is in the bottom 2. Gena, you are safe, head over to the Tiki Game Lounge.

Bristol and Larry, it gets harder. From now on, the next move may be your last. Good luck.

(holographic die rolls a 6)

Bristol rolls a 6....(bing!) safe. (applause)

(holographic die rolls a 5)

Larry lands on the arrow...(bing!) Yes, you stay safe. Nobody is out. Let's do it again.

(holographic die rolls a 4)

Lands on the final turn for Bristol....(bing!) safe again.

(holographic die rolls a 6)

Lands on the blade space....(buzzer; audience groans) Larry, I'm sorry, you are gone.

(applause)

Larry, you've been a nice player. Let's look back at your journey.

(Fade from break)

David: Well, it's another night gone on BOard Game Frenzy and with Larry Johnson gone, Gena and Bristol get 5 tokens for surving the board, which means next week, it's our finale. We'll play 3 games and at the end of every game, someone gets eliminated. Whoever is left standng will get $100,000. So tune in next week for that, I like to thank everyone in our studio audience and you at home. Follow us on Twitter or like us on facebook to show that you care for board games.

And now....the finale...brace yourself....[AVAILABLE IN CW-HD]

(Cue game piece landing on "Previously On...")

Kerri Kasem: Previously on Board Game Frenzy...(cue highlights) 6 celebrities participated in real-life versions of board games. They were fighting for immunity tokens to starve off elimination. Justin Credible was the first to disappear when Amber Brkich's streak turned from cold to hot. Larry Johnson was ejected recently when Gena Showalter and Rob Mariano survived. Now 4 are left. One of them will win $100,000 for their charity. It's mind-bending....it's action-packed....it's emotional....it's thrilling....it's exciting....its'....the season finale of.....BOARD GAME FRENZY!

(cue 210a plays; virtual board game opens to reveal board and becomes reality)

Now, satndign under 6 feet and wearing a tie with no underwear, David Tennant!

(David gets to teh "Start" circle and waves to the crowd)

David: Welcome, one and all to Board Game Frenzy, where your favorite starts play for charity. One of them will win $100,000 and we do that playing real life versions of board games and here they are.....

(Cue 210A starts at 1:08)

(Bristol enters in the "Start" circle)

Welcome, you have finally made it. It's the finale where one of you will be the board gamer. You will have 2 games, each with elimination. When 2 are left standing, you'll play on an elimination board like last week, except the first player to reach the finsih space wins $100,000. It's all coming up after this message.

David: Back to start game 1 of the finale. It invloves all 4 of you and we're going to play Candy Land, only this time, we have three stations. The first station involves all 4 grabbing a bucket and hurling candy at the observers, which is our studio audience. Once they get 5 candy bars in the bucket, it's then off to throw peppermints at targets located somewhere on the game board, and then from there, they'll take these apples and dip them in chocolate, only difference is, they'll use their hands to hit the bell.

(audience goes "EW!")

The first 3 to do all of this will move on, 1 won't, so get ready.....get set.....

(air horn blasts)

Thety're off!!!!

Gena gets a butterfinger and a snickers, Rob wastes no time getting 4 in and Gena and Amber become the first to teh enxt station while bristol catches up. Off to the peppermint zone. They're throwing peppermionts left and right.....and they all get to the final station. Someone's about to win this one.....Gena comes in first......Rob comes in 2nd....and Bristol with a surpsiing 3rd.

(applause)

Amber, you were the other half of teh Survivor couple, but Boston Rob beat you in the end. Let's look back at your journey together.

(cue highlights)

Playing for Hollyrods, Amber Brkich!

Amber: Rob, does it inlove helmets?

Rob: No.

David: Actually, it is. 5 point penalty. And amber, you guess that the sport is...

Amber: Football!!!!

David: You got it!!!

(bell dings; applause)

(flash to highlight)

Who is the most.....DISTURBING? 5 points if Greg can pick out teh most Disturbing. Amber, we start with you.

Amber: I would think Having yuorself on Autotune is teh most disturbing...(audince laughter)

(flash to highlight)

Both players are tied at 3 a piece and we're inside of 1 minute remianing in the game. Whoever can get the next score can gain advantage and it's down to the wire.....Amber....SCORES!!!!

(Fade from break)

We have room for 2 finalists going for $100,000 after this next game. It's called "Antsy Pantsy" based upon "Ants In The Pants" and here's how it works. We'll have a 45 seconds clock in which Gena, Rob and Bristol hurl ants into the pants by tossing them on the catapult and landing them into the pants. If it's otuside the pants or slips out, it will not count. The 2 persons with the most ants after 45 seconds will win.

get ready.....get set.....

(air horn blasts; clock starts)

They're ready to fire ants into the pants like the board game itself. Bristol, Gena and Rob all vying for the final board game and $100,000 in cash.....30 seconds have gone by.....The ants seem to have been everywhere....it is like a picnic....15 to go....rememebr the loser of the game will pocket $50,000 for their charity.....

(buzzer sounds)

That's it! Time!

Let's see how many ants came in the pants....Gena had.....17.

(applause)

Rob had.....15. SO Bristol, you must get more than 15 to advance. You had.....14. Off by 1!

(audience groans & applause)

Bristol Palin, 2 times you wanted to win it all, but you came close. Let's look back at your journey.

(cue highlights)
playing for the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy, Bristol Palin!

(Bristol enters in the "Start" circle)

(flash to highlight)

(david picks off the 2nd block on the first line)

(Amber screams and falls into the water)

Amber's gone, Bristol, you did it again!!!!

(flash to highlight)

(Bristol picks up the wrenched ankle)

SHe gets the Wrenched ankle! Rob, the pressure's on you. It's round 4. Can you take it?

(Rob tries to get teh ankle bone connected to the knee bone, but gets buzzed)

(red light comes on)

Oh, Rob, you got buzzed, Bristol, you're the winner.

(flash to highlight)

LSCOD

(applause; Bristol leaves)

Now it's down to 2. Rob Mariano and Gena Showalter. One will win $100,000. We'll be right back for the season's climax.

(Cue 210a starts at 1:08; applause)

[FADE TO COMMERCIALS]

[Gameheadz]

(Fade from break)

Throughtout the season, 6 celebrities have participated in board game challenges. Now we have room for just 2. Gena Showalter and Boston Rob Mariano. One will play for $100,000, the runner-up, $75,000. We'll now play The race to victory. This is the same game board that was for elimination, but we have just one wrinkle. The first playerr to land on the "Finish" space will be the winner. We'll line you up alphabetically and Gena will go first......shake hands and good luck....

(lights dim; slow trance drmaatic music)

(holographic die rolls a 4)

SHe lands on the 1234 space.

(holographic die rolls a 3)

He's on the big red X.

(holographic die rolls a 4)

Lands on the arrow for Gena.

(Holographic die rolls a 6)

Lands on the 3 circles for Rob. He's leading now.

(holographic die rolls a 1)

And Gena's in a tie for the lead!

(hologrpahic die rolls a 2)

Rob heads up to the spaceship space.

(holograpic die rolls a 5)

Gena hit the waves....

(holographic die rolls a 3)

We're tied again!

(short buzz)

Hold that thought for one second, we break for these words....

(Cue 210a starts at 1:08)

[FADE TO COMMERCIALS]

[Gameheadz]

This is where it all ends. Gena or Rob, we'll get to that in a mintue, but first, here's some news about our spinoff season.

(cue segment)

Videogame Marathon. A reality competition giving celebrities the opportunity to play real-life versions of video games is welcoming back past players for..."Rememption." Among the players who'll be participating in this season are:

VIDEOGAME MARATHON: Carmelo Anthony & Jennie Finch

VIDEOGAME MARATHON (REALITY TV EDITION): Blake Lewis & Toni Ferrari

VIDEOGAME MARATHON (YOUTUBE VS. MYSPACE): Colbie Calliait and Chris Crocker

VIDEOGAME MARATHON (BEAUTIES & BEASTS): Shelton Benjamin & Ashley Greene

and this season: Meghan Ashley and Alex Shelley

Together, they will form 2 teams based randomly on luck of the draw and participate in what viewers know about for 5 seasons, with a Call of Duty finale at the end. Revenge may best be a dish served cold, but we're heating up with "Videogame Marathon: Redemption." Coming in 2012 to the CW.


So be a part of history as we bring back players from past seasons in a spectacular season if Videogame Marathon soon, but right now, we have unfinished business to take care of. I will roll the holographic die. If it lands on a 1 or 2, the game continues, but if it lands on 3 or more...$100,000 will be Gena's or ROb's. Let's see what happens...now....

(holographic die rolls a 4)

Almost there....getting close....She's the champion!!!!

(applause; synth heroic music)

(confetti falling)

Gena SHowalter has done it! She is the board game queen! For that, she'll take home $100,000 for National Science Foundation while Boston Rob will take away $75,000 for United Way. Thanks for being with us all season. Follow us on Twitter or like us on facebook to show that you care for board games. For Kerri Kasem, I'm David Tennant, good night and play on.
