¿Qué Dice La Gente? by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  7p ET/6p CT on Telefutura
Host: Marco Antonio Regil
Abuabara (Yolanda, Elizabeth, Nicholas, Jeannette, Karime)
Rios (Nancy, Maribel, Javier, Daniel, Aniel)

After three, the Abuabaras are running away with it, 194-0. Double: what country do you think has the most World Cup victories in soccer (4). Daniel strikes with Brazil, #1. Argentina is #4, but the Abuabaras are going another way with Germany.... Up there for the win, 376-0. Other answer: Mexico.

Dinero Rápido: Karime gets 66. Elizabeth follows the family to... 152. They get $500 and another shot.

Meneses (Lazaro, Lilia, David, Maria, Ivan); $2000; three games
Abuabara (Yolanda, Elizabeth, Nicholas, Jeannette, Karime); $500

After four, the champions lead, 241-163. After a quick hello to Phoenix and Miami (where, ironically, the show is taped), here's the triple round: a place where you put your house number (3). On the side of the door is good for #2 for Ivan. The mailbox is good for #3 for Karime. Lilia gets #1, in the phone book. One more chance for the Abuabaras with "the garage door"... No! The Meneses win, 469-163. Other answer: sidewalk.

Maria and Ivan play their fourth Dinero Rápido: Ivan draws from the basket... buena suerte. Together, the two get 164 for $500 more, giving them $2500 for four games.

 
Starface by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  9:30p ET/8:30p CT on GSN
Host: Danny Bonaduce
Annie Boateng (teacher from West LA; hung out with will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas)
Richard DiGiulio (trainer from Providence, RI; owns Farrah Fawcett's filing cabinet)
DibriLynne Rice (mother of two from CA; sung backup for Barbra Streisand)

Round 1: Denzel Washington and Minnie Driver take us to the National Enquirer Hot Corner.... with Christian Bale. Heather Graham leads us to break with Richard leading, 300 to Dibrilynne's 150 and Annie's 100.

After the break, Richard is docked 50 for pronouncing "Minnie" "Mimmie". So sorry. He still leads, but now it's just with 250.

Round 2: going into the Starface Yearbook with a serial killer project who dated a Goth chick named Rose. It's Brian Warner... aka Marilyn Manson. Next, See Cups. The clues: "Over 40 and still as firm as two pink nectarines"... "You can judge a book by this cover." It's Fabio. And here's a hint for DibriLynne... NEVER go for the joke answer. Kate Moss leads us to today's Mug Shot... DibriLynne gets Larry King. Richard still leads it, though, with 550. DobriLynne has 350, while Annie is in the middle with 400.

Round 3: let's put on our "Ah-nolds". Yep, our players are playing Governor today. Arnold Richard gets to play bonus round with a score of 950 to Anne's 600. DibriLynne barely moves at 300.

Bonus Round for a trip to Waikiki: this time Richard gets to compare Goldie Hawn.... and Han Solo. The best damn pilot on the Starface set only gets seven for $700.
