Family Feud by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  Check local listings or familyfeud.com
Host:  Richard Karn
Survivor Castaways - Cha-Ching (Women): Jenna Morasca, Suzie Hawk, Shii Ann Huang, Tijuana Bradley & Christa Hastie
Survivor Castaways - Moo-Lah (Men): Richard Hatch, Ethan Zohn, Rupert Boneham, Jon "Jonny Fairplay" Dalton & Rudy Boesch

Okay, so Survivor Palau premieres this week. What better way to celebrate than to ... well, you know. First, something that some people do clothed that others do nude (6). Richard goes with EVERYTHING (just kidding)... His "swim" is number two. Jenna "sunbathe" is number one. Ladies also get sleep, intimacy, cooking, and cleaning for the 84-point sweep.

Round 2: something that some people fear that starts with the letter "S" (7). Suzie's number one of snakes gives her lady-friends control. Spiders and shots also make the survey. Can the guys steal with Rich's tattoo of a shark? Yep. It's worth 70 to them. Other answers: smoke, storm, swimming

Double round: something specific that you've lost more than once (5). Rupert snags #1, keys. The guys also lose their money... but that's it. The Cha-Ching come up with glasses for the steal, but it's not up there, giving the guys the 168-84 lead. Other answers: watch/jewelry, weight, wallet/purse.

After a diss in the face off, we get the triple round: real or fictional, a famous person named Ralph (4). Fairplay gets Ralph Lauren for #1. Rest of the team gets Ralph Kramden, and Ralph Waldo Emerson. The girls steal Ralph Nader AND the round, 270-168.

Sudden death: a sport women think is sexy to watch. Rudy's football isn't. But Christa's basketball is, giving them the game, 441-168.

Shii Ann and Jenna take on our version of Tribal Council, the Fast Money board.

1) Someone famous you wish would adopt you and make you heir to their fortune (Donald Trump).
2) Out of 10 blind dates, how many are winners (one)?
3) Something babies do that is not so cute (throw up).
4) An occasion where people gather in a church (wedding).
5) Besides a toothbrush, something people use to clean their teeth (floss)

Jenna gets the job done in four, giving the ladies $20,000.

 
The Price is Right by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time: 11am ET/10am CT on CBS (times vary by market)
Host:  Bob Barker
I will tell you right now, this show is a skunk.

Tracey Shanklin, the first one up on stage thanks to a storage building, is also the first one to the Showcase. She tries for an iron bed with sleep set at Pushover, but she's pushed over after she should've gone one more. Her guess: $1490. Actual price: $3149.

She would face either Amanda Firestone, who won a stained glass screen but couldn't convert into a dining group and dinnerware playing Cliff Hangers ($90 on an electric toothbrush?! To quote my friend Dustin Riley, "Perhaps they should've put the Cliffhanger in a catapult and shot him into studio 34."), or Virginia Danaher, winner of a Big Green Egg and $500 but loser of a Ford Focus playing Any Number (she would win the chest/apothecary table). It would take four spin-offs to determine who would meet Tracey in the Showcase, and the winner is...

Amanda, who is passed a Showcase about luggage and romantic hideaways Nantucket, Venice, and Tahiti. She bids $19,000. Tracey gets a visit from Gassanova, who lights a gas fireplace, cooks on a gas range, and gassing up a Pontiac Grand Am. Tracey bids $25,700. She was close, but her package was $25,184. Had she stopped before the seven, she would've won both Showcases. As it turns out, Amanda wins her pack and $24,241 in prizes.

Other winners:
Gerald Cate: desk
Lauren Peyton: karaoke
Drew Boles: his/hers snowshoe equipment

 
Shop 'til You Drop by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  6:30pm ET/5:30pm CT on PAX
Host:  JD Roberto
Players: Yoi (recent grad) & Mark (energy consultant) vs. Jamie (graduate student) & Sam (personal trainer)

Jamie & Sam get a Yamaha keyboard (with Konami Mania software) and a Lobstergram. Yoi & Mark get an Ashley entertainment center and Croton his/hers watches (today's Shopper's Special to Orange County) en route to a 500-300 win.

STYD Round for a trip to Paris: Yoi & Mark keep a Celestron telescope worth $620, and trade up for Tanita scales, Ricardo Beverly Hills, a Dale lamp, a Hubert citrine, and a Hatteras Hammocks high-dinette. Total: $2850!

 
Street Smarts by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Check local listings or streetsmartstv.com
Host: Frank Nicotero
Players for I Heart Smarts: Glenn (marketing consultant from Honolulu) vs. Gwen (accountant from LA, also Glenn's girlfriend)
Panel: Chaz (Gardener, MA), Crystal (Las Vegas), & Clint (Wilmington, OH)

A Valentine's Day show that we won't forget, as boyfriend and girlfriend duke it out, but lo, a twist. At the end of the show, Glenn will pop his knee and pop the question. More on that at the Romantic Wager...

Right now, Gwen leads, $1300 to $1100, going into said Romantic Wager: a couch built for two is called a WHAT seat? Correct: love.

Before that, though, it's time for the twist. You can see it play out at the Wall.

Glenn goes with Chaz, while Crystal gets the nod for Gwen. Gwen loses $300 on "a two seater". Glenn wins $2100 on the right seat. But will he take the $2100 nest egg? Nope. He's going to the Tournament. With Gwen's blessing, of course.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Check local listings or millionaireTV.com
Host: Meredith Vieira
After a week for loooove, we're back with Claire Ogilvie, a law student from Washington, DC. So far, she's at $2000 with all her lifelines intact. But she needs the help of the people on $4000: Bill Clinton's 1996 campaign prominently featured the theme "building a bridge to the" what? The audiences agree on "the 21st Century".

Then she needs the 50/50 on $16,000: In which of these races do participants travel the farthest? That leaves Tour de France and Ironman Triathlon. She goes for the Tour de France... and gets to see the $25,000 milestone!

... which goes like this: In his famous essay, "Self-Reliance," who wrote "To be great is to be misunderstood"? a) Henry David Thoreau b) Mark Twain c) Walt Whitman d) Ralph Waldo Emerson. Thanks to her high-school English teacher, Claire locks in D as her final answer... and she has $25,000!

For $50,000: Garrison Keillor named his radio show, "A Prairie Home Companion", after a what? a) Book b) Cemetary c) Fly-fishing stream d) Family farm. She switches out. Correct: B. New question: According to a DOJ study, about how many Americans were in prison, on probation or on parole in 2003? a) 1.3 million b) 2.5 million c) 4.7 million d) 6.5 million. She's thinking "somewhere around one percent" of all Americans. She goes to her PAF, law professor Michael. "One in 32. About 6.9 million, I think." She takes the freeball... And they're right!

For $100,000: Which of these is not one of the three stars that form the belt in the constellation Orion? a) Alnitak b) Mintaka c) Rastaban d) Alnilam. After mulling over probability for a bit, Claire decides to walk. She would've guessed Rastaban... and she would've been right.

Hopefully her loss is Marianne Naglic's gain. She comes to us from Bound Brook, NJ. She needs to ask the audience what a "kiwi" is (besides a New Zealander). NYC and AOL return with a bird, giving her $1000. She returns tomorrow with $2000.
