Title: H2 6/2 note...
Post by: Kevin Prather on June 03, 2004, 08:38:43 PM

Wednesday's show featured what I believe was the first on-air mention of the show's cancellation. Can anyone confirm that?

Tom mentioned to Lenny after he wanted to be center square; "Not after Friday."

That 3-word quote was the key phrase that H2 would be cancelled.

 Not to mention the media reports that you obviously missed 3 months ago.

Hey; Steve Beverly even reported it.

Lenny didn't say he wanted to be the center square.

Tom: According to a study, people who tell jokes have a better what?

Lenny: A better chance at being the center square.

Tom: Yah, well, not after Friday.


That's all beside the point. The point is was this the first on-air mention?

 I missed that exchange, but sometime during that show, the LED board on Tom's platform flashed [font=\"Courier\"]THREE MORE SHOWS[/font].  That was my clue.

"If we run out of time during this or any other game, we're all going out for drinks."

At the end of today's show, Tom said "Tomorrow we will wrap up Staff Appreciation Week and a whole lot of other things."

Actually, the first mention may have occurred last week with Martin's cue card.  Paul Lynde and Whoopi were already crossed out.  And Martin crossed himself out next.

 He should be fired.
