Chain Reaction by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  9p ET/8p CT on GSN
Host: Dylan Lane
Justin, Dave & Brandon (Boston University students)
Julia, Carly & Jill (trivia hounds & Penn State grads)

Round 1 ($100 per word): Connect PLAY with EXPRESS. Dave gets PANDA EXPRESS. Jill gets to PLAY DEAD, while Carly spells out #3, SEA. Brandon gets #4, GREEN. Carly completes the chain with GIANT. The chain: PLAY - DEAD - SEA - GREEN - GIANT - PANDA - EXPRESS. Speed Chain: TOM - P - C - DRAWER. "Petty cash" does it for another $100, as the girls lead, $400 to $200.

Round 2 ($200 per word): connect PINK with POKER. Dave gets STRIP POKER. Julia gets #2, GRAPEFRUIT. Dave gets #6, LANDING. The girls complete the chain again with HALF and MOON. The chain: PINK - GRAPEFRUIT - HALF - MOON - LANDING - STRIP - POKER. Speed Chain: GOOSE - F - B - CONSTRICTOR. "Feather boa" gives the girls the lead, $1200 to $600.

The guys say they love the Red Sox. You say you love the Red Sox, you're in New York City... what is the expected reaction? That's right... BOO!

Round 3 ($300 per word): connect SUPER with BEARER. Carly gets #6, RING, while David gets #2, HUMAN. Julia gets #3, HEART. The guys suffer from "form of the word" syndrome as the girls get HEART BROKEN. Carly completes the chain AGAIN with PROMISE. The chain: SUPER - HUMAN - HEART - BROKEN - PROMISE - RING - BEARER. The girls lead, $2400 to $900 going into the final Speed Chain: PUBLIC - A - B - HEAD. "Arena bobble" doesn't do it. It's "Auction block".

Round 4: Connect EROTIC with ATTACHED. The chain: EROTIC - FANTASY - LIFE - COACH - PURSE - STRINGS - ATTACHED, but we don't get to "coach" because the guys run out of money first, giving the game and $2300 to the ladies.

Bonus... Round... Time: Jill gets the blindfold. The ladies get fireworks, Big Bird, hairnet, and the IRS, so they get the $2300.

 
¿Qué Dice La Gente? by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  7p ET/6p CT on Telefutura
Host: Marco Antonio Regil
Miami Dolphin Cheerleaders (Susy, Stephanie, Janeen, Bibiana, Mabel), one game, $500
Construction workers (Edward, Hector, Felix, Jorge, Angel)

We're going to work this week with cheerleaders, constructors, pharmacists, and personal trainers. First up, the girlies vs. the burlies.

After four rounds and a clip from yesterday that... well, here's the clip.

Marco Antonio: Name something associated with St. Valentine. (BUZZER: Angel) Angel?
Angel: Christmas.

Anyway, after the Doubler, the constructors lead, 273-52. Triple: Something that serves to fix hair. Mabel fires with a hair blower. Good for #1. We also see #3, a brush. The Constructicons steal the game with comb, 537-52.

Felix and Angel go for Dinero Rápido... Felix gets 102. Angel gets... a number one answer, but it only puts the team at 182. They get $500.

Pharmacists (Massiel, Eni, Hector, Martha, Geraldo); one game, $500
Personal trainers (Louis, Elizabeth, Nelson, Tony, Catalina)

After three, the trainers lead, 170-0. Double: something that appears on your drivers' license (4). Tony's birthdate beats Martha's name, 2 to 3. A picture tells 1000 words and 184 points for the pharmacists. Other answer: license number.

Triple: something kids dream of being when they grow up (4). Doctor is the big one for Geraldo. Massiel is like her daddy for #4. A fireman is also up there. What's #3? The trainers go with the police... Got it for 413-184.

At the DR board this time... Louis and Nelson the Marine. They get 153 for $500 more.

 
Starface by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  9:30p ET/8:30p CT on GSN
Host: Danny Bonaduce
Mia Jefferies (dolphin trainer; was an extra in a Titanic exhibit)
Milton Smith (speed dating host from Los Angeles; confused for Garth Brooks)
Brooklyn Drogman (was one hit on by Vince Vaughn)

Round 1: Hilary Swank and William Shatner were both on game shows before, but never like this. Yep, followed by a Celebrity Trainwreck. It can only be Anna Nicole Smith. Alec Baldwin leads us into break, with Brooklyn leading, 350 to Mia's 200 and Milton's 150.

Round 2: points are doubled; intensity is tripled. Kevin Bacon gets the third degree, as we go "Below the Beltway". Clues: wooden, "I've got your hanging chad right here," "Be gentle with the Tipper". It's Al Gore. Next, a Mug Shot of Michelle Rodriguez. Mia pulls into the lead with 800 to Brooklyn's 550. Milton still has 150.

Round 3: let's put on our "Fitties". 50 Cent gets his props today. Milton can't seem to get his head out of third with 750. Brooklyn gets 1150, and by the appropriate sum of "fitty", Mia wins with 1200.

Bonus Round for a trip to the Caribbean: it's between Fred Savage & Fred Flintstone. Mia only gets eight for $800.
