Chain Reaction by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time: Saturday 9p ET/8p CT on GSN
Host: Dylan Lane
Ricky, Cory & David (college students)
Dorri, Tara & Melanie (aspiring singers; bride & bridesmaids)

Round 1 ($100 per word): connect BRUSH with TIMING. Dorri starts with #2, FIRE. David gets #3, DRILL. Tara spells out #6, TWO. David spells out #4, BIT. Dorri completes the chain reaction with PART for the lead, $300 to $200. The chain: BRUSH - FIRE - DRILL - BIT - PART - TWO - TIMING. Speed Chain: SWISS - M - P - BANK. "Miss Piggy" would've done it, but the girls can't, so the score remains the same.

Round 2 ($200 per word): connect HEAVENLY with CANE. Cory starts off with CANDY CANE, while Tara gets #5, EYE. Dorri gets an EAGLE EYE, and Tara follows with HEAVENLY BODY. Melanie guesses DOUBLE to complete the chain for the $1100 to $400 lead. The chain: HEAVENLY - BODY - DOUBLE - EAGLE - EYE - CANDY - CANE. Speed Chain: MAN - T - S - BLANKS. Correct: "Trouble Shooting". The girls can't get it, so again the score remains the same.

Round 3 ($300 per word): connect ANCIENT with HICKS. The guys get #2, GREEK, #3, DRAMA, and #4, QUEEN. The girls get #5, ELIZABETH, and the guys get #6, TAYLOR. That's the chain for the guys as they lead, $1600 to $1400. Final Speed Chain: JOHNNY - K - T - WILLIAMS. The guys complete the chain with "Knoxville, Tennessee" for the lead, $1900 to $1400.

Round 4: connect HOLY with IT. The chain: HOLY - ROLLER - DISCO - DUCK - SOUP - CAN - IT. The girls, thanks to two big money wagers, come back to win, $2200 to $1300.

Bonus Round: the girls get Woodstock, Wall Street, scissors, and Mary Poppins, not doing anything for their winnings. .

 
Starface by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  9:30p ET/8:30p CT on GSN
Host: Danny Bonaduce
Marty Lublin (event marketing host orig. from Bayville, NJ, had a run-in with Corey Haim)
Laura Harvey (senior at Cal State-San Marcos from the OC; ran into Paul Reubens)
Pete Hau (account services rep orig. from Taiwan; kicked out of Prince's VIP room)

Round 1: Geena Davis and Brett Favre lead us to a really Hot Corner with Gisele Bundchen. David Blaine leads us to a break with Marty way out at 450 to Laura at 150 and Pete at 50.

Round 2: a picture of Steve Carell's face puts Laura in the hunt. Next, "See Cups". The clue: "if you look really close, you can see those rhinestones." Laura: "Dolly Parton." Right for 100. Next up, a Mug Shot of ... and no one gets it... Tom DeLay. At the end of this round, Marty & Laura are tied at 650 to Pete's 250.

Round 3: trading regular faces for... Jacko! That... IS scary. After a round of contestants speaking in falsetti, Marty wins this one, 1250 to Laura's 1050 and Pete's 250.

Bonus Round for a trip to Cabo San Lucas: today, it's Marty against Carrie Fisher and Amy Fisher. Marty gets .... the 10 on the buzzer!
