business 30 years.
I haven't been in show business
as long as you have...
but I'm a quick learner...
so I'm going to give the audience
what I think they want.
You bastard!
Drop dead!
I don't do requests.
No!
That hit the spot.
Yeah!
All right! Yeah!
Richards! Richards!
Richards! Richards!
Richards! Richards!
Richards! Richards!
The Running Man
has been brought to you by...
Breakaway Paramilitary Uniforms...
Orthopure Procreation Pill...
and Cadre Cola...
it hits the spot.
Promotional considerations
paid for by...
Kelton Flamethrowers...
Wainwright
Electrical Launchers...
and Hammond and Gage
Chain Saws.
Damon Killian's wardrobe
by Chez Antoine...
19th-century craftsmanship
for the 21 st-century man.
Cadre trooper
and studio guard sidearms...
provided by Colchester,
the pistol of patriots.
Remember, tickets for the ICS
studio tour are always available...
for class-A citizens
in good standing.
If you'd like to be a contestant
on The Running Man...
send a self-addressed,
stamped envelope...
to ICS Talent Hunt,
care of your local affiliate...
and then go out
and do something really despicable.
