A very good guess!!

Let’s see what our panelists said!

\*\*Intergalactic Gladiator \*\*-- bird. (that’s a match!)  
**notfrommensa** --Pussy :eek:  
\*\*Hoopy Frood \*\*-- parakeet (After some discussion from our judges, we have determined this is also a match!)  
**antonio107** – leaves!  
**Maus Magill** – Dog (Woof!)  
**Dolores Reborn** – dog (Woof again!)

So that’s 2 matches this round! Very good, **Mr. ToKnow**

Alrighty, time for round two!

Panalists, I need your answer to this:

Most people don’t know this, but before the NFL’s championship game was called the Super Bowl, people referred to it as the Super \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_.

OK OK, panalist, I can take a hint! 😃  
It so happens we have all our answers anyhow!  
There were no matches in round 1, so everybody plays!  
**Dr. Girlfriend** , your answer to this, please:

Y’konw, you’re not the only one who said that was a tough question! We’ll tell the writers to come up with an easier one! In the meantime:

Let’s answer the one we got.  
\*\*  
notfrommensa\*\* – the Super Bowel. (ew.)  
**Dolores Reborn** – game  
**Intergalactic Gladiator** – Bowel (As in Super Bowel… ) (ew. Where do we keep finding these panalists?)  
\*\*antonio107 \*\*-- plate  
\*\*Hoopy Frood \*\*-- Cup.  
\*\*Maus Magill \*\*-- Commercial Fest.

Sorry My Dear.

Ok, last round. Here we go: Panalists, we need your answers to this: “OK, they have _the View_ and _the Chew_. They’re gonna make a talk show for Rednecks called the \_\_\_\_\_\_.”

Looking back through the thread, I think **Dr G** has only answered one question. and **KtK** has answered only one question.

But I think the leader after Round 1 is supposed to go first and that would be **KtK**.

answer submitted to **Janis** via PM.

Nope. **Dr. G** has answered two questions. **Knead** one. Unfortunatly, I did make the mistake of letting her go first both times, sorry about that.

My apologies for the delay in finishing the game! [Been kinda busy](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=641817). Anyhow, That is a great answer **KtK**. (It would have been mine as well.) Let’s see what our celebrities said.

**Intergalactic Gladiator** – Did not play, but said The Spew  
**notfrommensa** --“Mountain Dew”  
**Hoopy Frood** – Did not play, but said Chew and Spew.  
\*\*\*\*antonio107 \*\*-- The SPEW!  
Maus Magill \*\*-- Skew doggie  
**Dolores Reborn** – Zoo.  
That means with a fianal score of 2-0 **KneadtoKnow** is our winner!!  
**Yyyyyyyaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!**  
**Dr Girlfriend** we have some lovely parting gifts for you!  
Well that’s all for me folks, I’m gonna give somebody else a turn to Emcee ( Hopefully someone faster than me!!) Thanks for letting me do this, I had the best fun coming up with the questions!

🆒

Is my parting gift a year’s supply of chocolate? That’d be fine with me!
