Family Feud by Chico Alexander Air time: Check local listings Host: John O'Hurley Website: www.familyfeud.tv |
|||||||||||||||||||||
Hollywood comes to the Feud this week...
Well, almost.
Howard tests his buzzer first. Very important. Round 1: something women pump (6).
Howard gets the big one, breasts. Rest of the guys get gas. The
ladies try out iron... Right for 71. Other answers: air mattress,
hand lotion, hairspray. Sudden Death: past or present, a
famous entertainer that is or was blind. Johnny fires with Ray
Charles.. Win, 504-258. In the nightcap, the Campbells (Don, Jane, Jeremy, Brittany, Jennifer) challenge the Henleys (Sean, Roderick, Carrie, Evora, Lauren; $20,000). Campbells lead, 278-46. Triple: something patients in a hospital get a lot of (4). Brittany fires with TLC for O-N-E. They can't pick up any more, so the Henleys will try to stay alive with flowers... Right for 247. Other answers: fluids, rest.
Sudden Death: what one thing does a woman spend the most time on when
getting ready for a date. That's Lauren. "Getting dressed." Nope.
Jennifer? "Her hair." Win, 425-247. |

Another day of recapping. Another day of missing the second half of The Price is Right. Grumble.
Angela is pitching a shutout when she finds the Extra. She goes
$500 on this - 'Once More' Again gets her up to $700, and she
sports a $950-$250 lead going into the break.
Angela finds the first Extra, and
bets $500 on this 'Dough for Tempura?'...blank. Yen is the right
answer, and Angela falls to $1,050. She watches as Paul takes the
lead. And at $1,850, Paul finds the second Extra. 500 goes up on
this - 'KNives, Forks, Spoons, Etc.' Utensil? No. Cutlery, and we
have a tie at $1,350. Steve gets up to $1,750 Vs. $1,350 at the
break. No spoiling yet, though Mark has been locked out. If you think you can be a solver on "Crosswords", then call 323-762-8282. |

Two nights in, and Gabe is still the one to beat.
Gabe and Andy, the only two players with better than their original stacks, bet into this flop of J-5-5. Andy with an Ace has a better kicker. Gabe bets big into it. Andy lays it, and Gabe picks up $7100. Three way action gives us a flop of 10-4-8. Chris has an open-end straight draw. Doyle picks up middle pair. Turn: Q♠. Chris leads out, and takes $7400. More three-way play with a flop of K-2-7. Andy flops top pair and picks up $12,800. Doyle moves all-in with A-Q against Andy's K-Q. flop: 9-3-3. Doyle with the better kicker. Andy checks, and gives up the goodies, all $19,250, to Texas Dolly. Hoyt's moved in all you can eat, baby, with Q-10. Andy calls with A-9. Flop: A-A-Q. Hoyt needs running Queens or a Jack & a King to take this one. Otherwise, it's all over but the hurt. Turn: J♥. Now he needs that king. River... 3. Hoyt ends the night by ending his life at the table. |

Wednesday at the Price begins with Karen Foster, Megan Lecker, Thomas
Michael, Shanta Torbert, and a Dell. Dude, you're getting a price of
$1618, Thomas! He also gets a shot at an HDTV. Time for the Check Game.
He makes it out to $3100. The TV... $3198. He's over by $298. Ouch. Megan gets a $715 wall clock and a shot at a Chrysler PT Cruiser in Stack the Deck. The deck: 5 8 1 6 7 4 3. One of Clorox2 or Nutramist Immune Boost is $6.29. He goes with the spray... $7.99. Clever Clasp or Listerine Whitening rinse. Which is $7.99. Not the Clever Clasp. Sorry. One more shot with V8 and Mezzetta cherry peppers. $3.15 for the V8? Yep. So we have a price of $-7,---. She tries $17,845... It was $17,435. Jaimal Ware, a loyal friend and true, goes down and up... and down again... and up again thanks to $900 worth of luggage. Can he win $10,000 in 1/2 Off? Burger phone for $15 and disco lamp for $11... He goes with the phone... $30! Hummer bank is $25 and personal amplifier (what?) for $15. Going with the bank... $50. Finally, golf clock for $27 and wattage converter for $20. He goes with the wattage converter... $40! So Jaimal has $1500. He really wants $10,000. Is it #11 or #16? He goes with #11... Open it up... Not there. But Jaimal does have a rare chance to go absolutely bat-guano insane after winning the Showcase Showdown, dancing round the audience during the ticket plug. Melissa Dumas gets down and up with $500 for a right bid on a $1300 pool table. Now she gets a wine bar, a home gym, and a grill. Which is the Most Expensive? She goes with the grill. Wine bar is $1650. Home gym is $2199. Grill... $1603. Joyce Whipple wins a $1800 baker's rack and a shot at a Pontiac G6 in Squeeze Play. The price is not $212,956. She pulls the 2. Is it $21,956? No, it was $21,256. Karen and Shanta may not make the stage, but we have bigger things to worry about, because we're on the verge of a skunk. Last prize is a karaoke. Actual price... $739. Winner... Sheryl Habegger. She gets a shot at scuba equipment and an ATV. She sets the Magic # at 1989. The ATV...$3199. The scuba... $2160. Skunk is on in three. Joyce wins at the Wheel. First in the Showcase, a bedroom with sleep set, travel books, and a trip to Bangkok. Top winner Jaimal passes, and Joyce bids $14,000. Jaimalus Maximus, meanwhile, gets not-so-sage advice from shoes, a new kitchen, and a ski boat. He bids $25,715. Actual price: $30,050, a difference of $4335. Joyce's Showcase... $17,896. She wins with a difference of $3896! She takes home $19,736. |

Michelle Allen (Albany, CA) starts the 3rd day of Million Dollar Movie
Week at $16,000, but with no lifelines on the table. She didn't need any lifelines at $25,000, though. With that secured, Michelle gets Switch-the-Question, which she immediately uses to see this... [$50,000] (Q) Which of these Best Picture-winning films features an Oscar statuette as a prop in one of its scenes? A: The Godfather B: Annie Hall C: Forrest Gump D: Crash Though she's not positive of this, Michelle is thinking C. She goes with that... but it's A! Oh well; she does have $25,000 to take home! Brent Massey (Muskogee, OK): He's a history teacher, and some of his students have been giving him nicknames. For example, one of them came up with the "Massinator". The "Massinator" sweeps the lower tier, then soon after the $2,000 Netflix question involving a clip from "Broadcast News", he faces this... [$8,000] In the 1986 movie "Back to School," Rodney Dangerfield's character has made a fortune selling what? A: Big-and-tall clothing B: Toupees C: TV dinners D: Tanning beds It's been a while since he saw this movie, so Brent asks the audience. 67% are thinking A. He locks that in... and they're right!

A: To Have and Have Not B: Casablanca C: The Maltese Falcon D: The Big Sleep Brent calls his grandma, Mellie, and she says that the only one of those that she knows is C, but she's not sure. So, the 50:50 is used, leaving A and C. Brent decides to go for it, saying C... and it's C! [$25,000] In "Top Gun," the characters' Navy "call signs" include "Maverick," "Goose" and all but which of the following? A: Merlin B: Sundown C: Nighthawk D: Wolfman That happens to be Brent's favourite movie of all time! So, he's pretty sure that it's C... and he has $25,000! With that, the horn goes off, so Brent will be back tomorrow for more! |
