¿Qué Dice La Gente? by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  7p ET/6p CT on Telefutura
Host: Marco Antonio Regil
Rivera (Carlos, Ivon, Marlene, Edwin, Maribel)
Cardona (William, Patricia, Billy, Felipe, Natalia)

After three, the Riveras lead, 139-71. Double: you would tell a sloppy child that his room is a... (4). Felipe fires with a disaster, #1. Also up there, a pigsty and disordered. Can the Riveras steal with a ditch? Nope. Cardonas are up to 239. Other answer: "Cochinero".

Triple Round: something that requires a reservation (3)? Natalia's plane trip beats Maribel's hotel stay, 1 to 2. The Riveras have one more go with a restaurant... Got it for the win, 427-239.

Ivon starts Dinero Rápido with 82. Maribel gets another 93, giving the fam $500.

Meneses (Lazaro, Lilia, David, Maria, Ivan); $1500; two games
Rivera (Carlos, Ivon, Marlene, Edwin, Maribel); $500

After four, the challengers lead, 245-95.

Triple: something for which you get a traffic ticket (4). Running a red light is number one for Ivan. Speeding, parking, or running a stop sign will also get you a ticket, but it gets the champs the sweep for the game, 380-245

Lilia and Ivan play their third Dinero Rápido: Ivan draws from the basket... buena suerte. Together, the two get 153 in eight questions (Lilia zeroes out on the last two) for another $500, giving them $2000 for three games.

 
Starface by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  9:30p ET/8:30p CT on GSN
Host: Danny Bonaduce
Jessica Hopper (jewelry designer orig. from San Mateo, CA; shot dirty looks at President Ford)
George Howell (grad student orig. from Dallas; would trade his life with Will Smith)
Mallory Seppler-King (student from St. Paul, MN; Prince tried to convert her family to Jehovah's Witnesses)

Round 1: Jennifer Aniston leads us off into today's venture into celebrity. And along the way... Woody Allen. Next up, a Hot Corner with Patrick "McDreamy" Dempsey. Sandra Bernhard puts the censors on notice as she takes us to break with Jessica en fuego with 500 to George & Mallory's 50 a piece.

Round 2: From Kate Hudson, we go Below the Beltway with... "a little head out of a tank"... "a kitty's scratching post"... "a Greek who brought up the rear." It's Michael Dukakis. Next, a Mug Shot of Roger Clinton. Jessica still owns the game, 800 to Mallory's 450 and George's 150.

Round 3: let's put on our "Princes". Yep. The same guy that came to Mallory's house. Prince George tried to fight back with 750 to Prince Mallory's 450, but it was all Prince Jessica, as she wins with 1200.

Bonus Round for a trip to Jamaica: it's between Russell Crowe... and your average garden variety crow. Jessica gets... all ten!
