All right.
We have a little announcement to make.
But first, I need a couple of friends to help me out.
Are they ready?
There they are.
Kristen and Dax.
Hello, you two.
Hi.
So, you know that I love any time that either of you
are on the show, but together, really, you're the best.
A couple of years ago, we had you two play
a game called Taste Buds.
And it was so much better than we ever, ever
could have hoped for, and it gave us an idea.
My producers and I came up with a brand new game show
that we're so excited about.
And it's going to be on NBC, so everyone, take a look at this.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Lean down.
I'm so sorry.
Oh.
I'm getting a little hot dog and a hamburger and french fries.
Mustard.
No.
Oh my God.
Who puts mustard on a french fry?
Oh.
It's rabbit food.
It's what I eat in the garden.
Oh my goodness.
It has the most antioxidants.
Spinach.
No.
It's the kind that you put blue cheese on.
I put blue cheese on?
Blue cheese, Dax.
And, bacon and--
Oh.
A wedge.
Iceberg.
Yes.
Oh my God.
Oh.
Chimpanzees eat it.
It grows on a tree.
It's yellow.
Eucalyptus.
Oh my goodness.
Mm-mm
Macaroni and cheese.
No.
It's a crunchy, crunchy after dinner snack.
Oh.
Cheez-its.
Oh.
Ruffles.
They look like fingers.
Sour cream and cheddar.
They look like fingers.
Cheez-its.
I said Cheez-its.
They're not Cheez-its.
I'm taking this off.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[SCREAMS]
I saw it and I cannot ever unsee it.
It's gratuitous and it's graphic.
My heart is beating so fast.
Was it painful?
Sure.
Yeah.
Did it almost kill us?
Absolutely.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
When I watch the Olympics, I think,
[SNICKERS] I can do this.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
It's called Family Game Fight.
This is the first time that you guys are actually
doing a show together.
Yeah.
We have to say that in our estimation,
that Taste Buds thing is by far the funniest thing we've ever
been a part of.
Every time we've seen it, it's just incredible
that she said eucalyptus.
Well, the interesting thing is that when
I play games and get very competitive,
I go fully offline.
Mm-hmm.
And that's fun.
That's a good zone for entertainment.
It's interesting for the viewer.
It's interesting for my husband.
As long as we leave this show still married,
I think it's going to be great.
But we're very excited because we're
going to be not just hosting, but also playing.
Competing.
With the families.
Yeah.
So we're going to have two families, Dax's family,
my family, and we'll be playing against each other
for a while for $100,000.
But at the end, the winning family
will try to get them up in their numbers to win the entire show
and win the whole 100,000.
And we love--
That's how the sausage is made, but most importantly, we
will be battling one another in the name of our families,
quite often.
And we think that'll be pretty amusing for everyone.
Oh my God.
Every time we show that, we feel the same way.
It's hilarious.
What Dax--
Ellen, imagine how great season three
would be that we're divorced and have to host that.
Now that is a show.
That is a hook.
Yeah.
You know what?
Here's what we're going to do.
We will make sure that we keep going until you divorce.
That's what we're going to do.
We will make sure that's how long we're going to go.
The last kid goes to college in 12 years.
So let's count it 12 seasons, [SNAPS] we'll get that divorce.
And then season 13 is going to be a riot.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
It's going to be a great.
Family Game Fight.
It's going to be so great.
And right now you're looking for families who
want to compete on the show.
So if you want to be a part of Family Game Fight,
go to our website.
I mean, who doesn't want to, first of all,
just hang out with the two of you,
but especially being competitive?
So, we're going to have a lot of submissions.
But also, families, we just want to be clear.
If you created a pod during this pandemic.
That's a family.
If you've got three or four best friends, that's a family.
If you've got two uncles and a brother and two moms,
that's a family.
Bring the emu.
Anyone who you love and respect in your inner circle,
in our eyes, is viewed as a family.
So it does not have to be any type of person.
It can be any group.
We don't want any one man who's claiming to be a family though.
Right.
Let's be clear about that.
More than one.
Other than that, anything goes.
If you love those people, in our eyes, your family.
Come play with us on Family Game Fight and win some money.
Yes.
So go to our website and tell us who you want to be
on gambling-- gambling--
I can't talk.
I can't.
I've talked too much today.
I have a certain word count, and then at the end of the day,
it just goes to mush.
Family Game Fight.
Go to our website.
We'll be right back.
