Family Feud by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time: Check listings or familyfeud.com
Host: Richard Karn

Burton is decked out luau-style because one of eight families can win up to $130,000 and a trip to Hawaii on Family Feud's annual winner-take-all Tournament of Champions! So far, the pot is at $50,000, and the Rambos and Wordlaws are out to eliminate each other for it.

Rambo (Jack, Angela, JR, Natalie, Jay)

Wordlaw (Birlus, Erica, Deborah, Craig, Kent)

JACKPOT: $50,000

Round 1: something some men wear and some men don't (full board). Birlus is stymied... but comes up with underwear... number 1! They get earrings, toupees, hats, sneakers, and ties as well. The Rambos go with cologne for the steal... Got it for 72! Other answer: undershirts.

Round 2: something people arrive early for so they can get a good seat (6). Angela gets #1, a movie. We also see a sporting event, a play, church, a concert, The Wordlaws try to steal with a wedding... And it's an 18-point Feud! The Wordlaws have 91.

Double Round: kind of movie you rent the most (full board). Jeremy buzzes in with comedy, #1. The Rambos pass the board, though. The Wordlaws try out drama, romance, and horror, leaving the Rambos to steal with western... Not there! The Wordlaws have 201. Other answers: action/adventure, mystery/thriller.

Triple Round: an appliance in the bathroom you plug in (4). Natalie gets #1 with a hair dryer. A curling iron, an electric razor, and... a radio? The Wordlaws hope so... Not there! The Rambos win, 357-201. Other answer: electric toothbrush.

Angela (and her baby) and her husband JR take on the Fast Money board again.. but not with the same result, as they only get 115, leaving $50,000 in the Jackpot. The Rambos, meanwhile, are on their way to the finals!

The Price is Right by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time: 11a ET/10a CT on CBS (markets may vary)
Host: Bob Barker

Tobi Brinegar, Otesa Ford, Evelia Hash, Robert Bartholomew, and a set of towables start this show. The pool floaties go for $969, and they go to almost-birthday girl Otesa, who plays for something else that can be towed, a Pontiac Grand Prix. The game: Lucky Seven. First number: 2. She tries 2 next... it's 3. Next: 5... it's 7. Next: 4... it's 8. And she's broke.

Tobi has better luck with a TV/DVD player with Netflix subscription worth $729. But can she convert into a trip to St. Thomas? She can if she negotiates the new Balance Game. The Barker bags available: $1000, $2000, $3000, and $344. Bob gives her the $344, but Tobi adds the $1000 and the $2000 herself. Will the tip and the Barker bags balance? YES! Theoretically, she could've just put the $3000 bag, but she has to use two of the bags, so...

Janice Barnhart, a Red Hat, gets a hammock in round 3. It's worth $839. Now she gets a chance to win an alto sax, a Tribeca chair & ottoman, crystal stemware, a kitty tree, and a gemstone globe. The limit on her Credit Card: $2400. She goes for the cat tree... $599. She goes for the globe... $1250.. That leaves $551. Ai-yah... How about the stemware? $775. Too much. She should've picked the cat tree, the stemware, and the saxophone. Meanwhile, the first winner of Balance Game in almost 20 years wins the big spin to the Showcase.

Who'll join her? We start with a foosball table, boccerball/marble soccer table, and air hockey table. It's all worth $900, and it all goes to Robert, who gets a chance at a gazebo. The game is the Range Game. Robert stops the range finder at $6570 to $6730. The actual price... $6800. He's got what Jason H calls "premature buzzer syndrome".

Tysen Klafke, easily one of the most excited contestants this show has ever had, wins a "Blue Dawn" graphic worth $2500. He gets to Pass the Buck for a Chevrolet Cobalt, as well as a little cash. First up, a Clorox bleach pen marked at $1.99, and a box of St. Joseph's companion aspirin marked 99c. He passes left... Right! (as in correct). Next, Little Debbie cake rolls at $1.39 and Nesquik at $3.39. He passes right... and that's correct as well. So he has all three picks... And with those picks, he grabs Lose Everything... the OTHER Lose Everything... and the CAR!

Last chance for Evelia, but Betty Watland makes out with a dishwasher worth $1089. Now she has a chance to win dinnerware and an offroad motorcycle. Betty's Magic #: 1683. The offroad motorcycle... $2094. The dinnerware... $1028. She's a winner! But Robert's a winner at the Wheel with 95c.

Showcase time. First up, a living room group with carpeting, his & hers golf equipment, and a golf cart. Top winner Tobi passes to Robert, who bids $14,800. Robert, meanwhile, gets homemade ice cream from Shane and her ice cream maker while she thinks about a trip to Alaska and a Ford Freestar. Tobi bids $22,000. Actual price: $27,272, difference of $5272. Actual price of Robert's Showcase: $16,535! He's the big winner with $17,475!

Stats: even, $44,637.

The mystery round prize is $10,000. The category is EVENT...and it's a PRIZE PUZZLE. Renee starts. She misses...over to Dave. He hits the mystery wedge and will he risk $1,000? He does, and hits Bankrupt...over to Jacqueline who hits Lose A Turn...back to Renee. She misses...back to Dave. He hits and picks up $1,000 from Hawaiian Tropic. He solves WINDOW SHOPPING ON FIFTH AVENUE for $3,000. And of course, you do that in my hometown...New York City. It's a trip to New York City at the Buckingham Hotel worth $4,100...and if you have the SPIN ID is ML06113 you are off to NYC! And if you have the Sony Card...you have $50,000!

Renee leaves with $8,600. Jacqueline had a ton of bad luck on the wheel, so we give her $1,000.

Dave is going to Hawaii and New York and has a ton of cash to boot. Can he add more to his loot? He lands on the N in WIN with a "manly" spin according to Pat. The category is LIVING THING. With RSTLNE we have:

_ L _ _ _ N _ _

He choose D C H A and we have:

_ L A _ _ N _ _

Being in Florida he should have had FLAMINGO. But he didn't see that he lost $30,000. But that is about what he won with $29,458 in cash and trips!

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire by Don Harpwood, GSNN

Air time: Check listings or millionairetv.com
Host: Meredith Vieira

Time to roll on and see how much more money can be given away to those who are smart enough...

Starting things off today is Carol Morse (Naperville, IL). She works as an extra on various shows, so normally, she's used to being in the background. But she's in the spotlight this time, and she's hoping for a nice late birthday present (her birthday was 2 days before this taping), in the form of a million bucks! Carol starts by knowing that at the dinner table, kids are often told not to talk with their mouths full (not kissing the dog just goes without saying). She easily gets through the lower tier, then after a couple more questions, this shows up...

[$8,000]
Little Morris McGurk lets his imagination run wild in a Dr. Seuss classic titled "If I Ran the" what?
A: Swimming Pool
B: Carousel
C: Playground
D: Circus

Carol decides to ask the audience. 74% of the studio audience and 69% of the AIM users say D. Carol trusts them... and they're right! Another question later, and she faces this one...

[$25,000]
To protest an unpopular tax, what state's residents staged a famous 1794 uprising called the "Whiskey Rebellion"?
A: Rhode Island
B: Virginia
C: Pennsylvania
D: Delaware

Carol, after some thought, calls her friend Mike, who is 80% sure that it's C, before making a quick confirmation just before time runs out. Carol goes with C... and she has $25,000! And for the 10th straight game (not counting WIAW Week), we move on to the upper tier...

[$50,000]
When first introduced to the public in 1908, Ford's Model T car was offered at what retail price?
A: $475
B: $850
C: $1,450
D: $1,975

Carol has no idea, so she switches it. She wouldn't have guessed B, but that's what it was, but that's gone now, and is replaced by this...

[$50,000] (Q)
What gem, named for a Greek word meaning "not intoxicating," was once thought to prevent drunkenness?
A: Opal
B: Sapphire
C: Amethyst
D: Topaz

The 50:50 leaves B and C. Carol is reminded that it's a free guess, then after a bit of thought, she goes with C... and she's right! Next question...

[$100,000]
What Shakespeare play is famous for the unusual stage direction "Exit, pursued by a bear"?
A: Timon of Athens
B: Pericles
C: The Winter's Tale
D: Measure for Measure

Carol doesn't know, so she walks. If she guessed, though, she'd have said C, and that would have been right! Oh well; she still has $50,000!

Next up is Tamasine Ellis (Houston, TX). She is a high school teacher, and before heading to this taping, her students had her play the online game until she reached the million there. It took her 5 tries. She has only 1 shot here, though, so hopefully, she can make it count! Tamasine starts by knowing that an egg hunt is a traditional activity that takes place on Easter. She sweeps the lower tier, then eventually, she gets to this...

[$16,000]
Because it lies mostly at or below sea level, which of these European nations is identified as one of the "Low Countries"?
A: Portugal
B: Belgium
C: Italy
D: Sweden

Tamasine asks the audience. 46% of the studio audience says B, with 27% saying C. But 35% of the AIM users say C, with 29% saying B. Tamasine decides to trust the studio audience, going with B... and it's B!

And there's the horn. Tamasine will be back tomorrow.
