Kevin
Somers goes on the Make A Million
game show ("The show that gives away a million
dollars every week!"), and almost wins the money,
but in a desperate act, Mr. Dime cancels the show
before Kevin gets the chance to answer the question.
Later, Kevin brags about being a star after recieving
a single (unstamped) piece of fan mail, which Marc
talks him into letting him answer. Kevin continues
to brag when Ross comes on the set, and dumps a big
bag of fan mail on the set ... all for Jono, who must
answer all of it by that night. Kevin, embarassed,
asks for just one, and he gets it. Unfortunately,
it's from the phone company.

DID
YOU NOTICE?
- The
only known existing tape of this episode is a home
recording from YTV, missing the final several minutes.
- This
episode contains the only existing glimpse at the
original Barth, who, prior to the 1981 season of
YCDTOTV, was a summer camp cook.
- This
is one of the last episodes that uses the now, very
tiresome question "What's the largest lake
in North America\Canada?" No one gets slimed
by it either, losing the novelty attatched to it.
