Family Feud by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  Check local listings or familyfeud.com
Host:  Richard Karn
Stars on Ice Men: Scott Hamilton, Kurt Browning, David Pelletier, Todd Eldridge & John Zimmerman (playing for the Boys & Girls Club of America); $20,000, one game
Stars on Ice Ladies: Sarah Hughes, Kristi Yamaguchi, Jamie Sale, Kyoko Ina & Yuka Sato (also playing for the Boys & Girls Club of America)

The women lead this Feud, 169-81, going into the triple round: to 100 women, what's the first question you ask when you're invited to a party. Kyoko gets #4, what should I wear? And that does it for her, because Todd blanks. And so do the rest of the women, as the men try for the steal. Is "What time" up there? It's number one! Other answer: "Where is it?" and "What occasion?". The men still trail it, 169-123, going into...

Sudden death: something a man traditionally does when proposing marriage. Yuka says "be on the knee" to win, 367-123. "The guys are stunned!"

Jamie & Sarah take their Fast Money round. Jamie has some trouble with a US state that has farms (rule of thumb, never ask the Canadian questions like that). But still, five people agreed with her, so it's not a total wash. She gets 51. Sarah doesn't fare any better, as they add $575 to the running total.

The Price is Right by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time: 11am ET/10am CT on CBS (times vary by market)
Host:  Bob Barker
Terry Kleban can sit easy with a Brenning chair in round 3, but what's a chair without a little stuffing? How about a chance to line the chair with $10,000? The choices in the Grand Game (target price: $5) are Theragesic cream, Clorox bathroom cleaner with Teflon, Airborne remedy, Nestle Toll House morsels, Fiji bottled water, and a Os-cal calcium. The morsels give him $10. The water gives him $100. The Clorox gives him $1000. The Airborne gives him... too much. It was $6.99.

That Showdown round, we meet George, who wants to be "The Black Bob Barker". He explains the proceedings while Terry just takes his place under the scoreboard.

Taking her place next to Terry in the Showcase is Lauren Cheak, a "girl gone wild". Even says so on her shirt. She gets crystal stemware. But that's all she gets. Well, she also gets an ice shaver playing Secret X, but she fails to make the three-in-a-row for the trip to Ireland.

Terry has the honor in the Showcase, as they get prizes for the truly lazy - a robotic pool cleaner, a 47" LCD HDTV, and a travel trailer. Terry passes it, as Lauren bids $35,000. Terry, meanwhile, gets a really GOOD Showcase, a good bed with sleep set, a good trip to Aruba, and a really good Chrysler 300. Terry bids his lucky number, $13,000, which is about $18,000 off. Good news for Lauren, she's only $15,000 off. The bad news... it was $15,000 over. Terry wins the day with $32,223. Lucky indeed.

Other winners:
Francis Loreth: GPS receivers; dinette set, stove, assorted sweets & juicer winning Take Two
Lloyd Christensen: baker's rack; CD jukebox winning Squeeze Play
Kelsey O'Connor: fridge/freezer
Keisha Codvington: white gold pendant

 
Shop 'til You Drop by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  6:30pm ET/5:30pm CT on PAX
Host:  JD Roberto
Players: Nina (study coordinator) & Greg (electrician) vs. Lisa (executive assistant) & Alli (teacher)

Nina & Greg get an Ashley curio cabinet (today's Shopper's Special for a trip to Lake Tahoe). Lisa & Alli get a year at 24Hour Fitness and a gift certificate from LaserSolutions90210.com en route to a win, 600-450.

STYD Round for a trip to Jamaica: With three seconds to spare, Lisa & Alli pick up Ameriware cookware, vtech phones, a Riccar vacuum, an Unodomani charm bracelet, Image DVDs, and a Sleep Number mattress. Total of... $3448. The bed alone was worth $1700.

 
Street Smarts by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Check local listings or streetsmartstv.com
Host: Frank Nicotero
Players for Revenge Week: Melanie (Hookset, NH) vs. Paul (Chicago)
Panel: Mike (Palmdale, CA), Kelli (San Francisco), Tyrone (New Bedford, MA)

Don't call it a comeback... okay, call it a comeback, as thanks to the Pick Your Brain round, Melanie makes the comeback to $1400 against Paul's $1000 going into the Wager of Death: Custer's Last Stand was a famous battle led by George Armstrong who?

Both players roll tape on Kelli. Her answer.... "Custer." Melanie went wrong to leave her with $50. Paul went wrong... and bet everything. Melanie gets sweet comeuppance, but she may want to trade the $50 in for a shot at the case... "That's a hard one... Tournament!" From street savant to $100,000 baby. Maybe.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Check local listings or millionaireTV.com
Host: Meredith Vieira
Last time, Shaun Hart & Jessica Westbrook of Sinking Spring, PA came up with $50,000 for their wedding as we started Theknot.com Play to Pay for Your Wedding Week. Can they go any further down the Millionaire aisle? No. They decide to walk at $100,000: In terms of carats, which of these celebs sports the biggest diamond on her engagement ring? a) Victoria Beckham b) Catherine Zeta-Jones c) Jessica Simpson d) Britney Spears. Correct: B. 10 carats. Bling... bling.

Next in the dual hot seat are John Hurst & Elvira Cho of Castle Rock, Co. An interesting story, this is. John was in an auto accident, and, still in traction, he & Elvira, who gave up her job to take care of her, hope to recoup their losses. They're on the right path as they get $1000.

After the break, another surprise. John & Elvira are given a Swarovski-encrusted wedding gown by Henry Roth! Wow. Well, now that the dress is taken care of, let's get back to the game. For $2000, What scientific theory attempts to find unexpected patterns in seemingly random data? We go to the audiences, and they like Gordon's friend, "chaos theory". John & Elvira lock it in for $2000.

PAF John gets the call on $16,000: In 2001, Chevron merged with what company to form the US's second largest oil and gas provider? "Texaco. Texaco." Texaco!

Time for the $25,000: the Scoville scale, used to measure the "sing" of chili peppers, rates which of these peppers the hottest? a) Habanero b) Cayenne c) Tabasco d) Jalapeno. They go for the 50/50, which leaves A and B. Elvira has a gut feeling on A. So does John. Now they get $25,000! And while we break for the day, you get this sweepstakes question. Remember, if you want to win a trip to St. Lucia, go to theknot.com/millionaire. Your special question for today:

Which of these rituals traditionally takes place at an African-American wedding?

A: Jumping over a broom B: Eating an egg
C: Breaking a wine glass D: Walking around a candle
