The Naughties
took game one, but the night is still young. Round 1:
something a man might love even more than a woman (7).
Kimberlin gets #1, a car. Sports also makes the list,
but the Nice Guys have a chance to steal with his dog.
It's up there for 49. Other answers: himself,
food/cooking, money, his children
Round 2:
something women do to get over being dumped (5). Ronn
gets #1, eat. They also find another man, go shopping,
and cry, but Team Nice tries girlfriends for the
steal... Not there, giving the Naughties 79. Other
answer: go to bar/drink.
Double Round:
something that's slippery and hard to hold onto (5).
Lauren gets #3, ice. Jane gets #1, a bar of soap. Ronn
gets #2, a fish. The Nice Guys go the other route with a
man for the steal. Not there, giving the Naughties 238.
Other answer: a water balloon, a wet baby.
Triple Round:
a place of business where you might be asked to sit or
lie down
(4). Scott gets #1, a doctor's office. That's all they
get, though. The Naughties want to steal with spa. Not
there, giving the Nice Guys 292. Other answers:
hospital, restaurant, massage parlor.
Sudden Death:
something a parent might make a child do before going to
bed. That's Stupid Doug: "Say prayers." Not there. Jess:
"Brush their teeth." That's game, 443-292.
Lauren &
Kimberlin get only 151 in Fast Money for $755.

The
Price is Right by Chico Alexander, GSNN
Air time: 11a ET/10a CT on CBS
(markets may vary)
Host: Bob Barker |
|
|
Television's
fastest hour is about to begin! First up, a treadmill.
It goes to Stacy Morey, who also gets a chance at a trip
to DC! The game is Range Game, as she stops it at around
$3400. The price: $3442. She's going to Washington!
Meanwhile, Victoria
Sanchez gets to ease back with her new sofa, as she
finds some Pocket ¢hange for a Pontiac G6 worth $21,840.
After one mistake, Bob will sell it for 50 cents... and
that's what she pulls on the first ticket! Actually, she
pulls a quarter, but it just so happens that she has
another one.
John Jimenez,
meanwhile, grabs a pair of night vision binoculars, and
at a good time, too, because it's time to play PLINKO!
With chips from Bob, a jump start system, a sandwich
maker, and a register bank, he manages to total up
$1600. That's all the money he wins, though, as Victoria
takes another $6000 in the Showdown.
Maurice Coleman
from Chicago needs a car really really bad. He gets... a
day sailer. Well, if you put wheels on it, I suppose.
Anyway, now he has a chance to win something with
wheels, a scooter, as well as a projection TV. The
scooter is marked $3499. The TV is marked $4995. Will he
Switch? Nope. Should've.
Joshua Cappelen
wins a gas range in round 5 and a chance to hit the
Bullseye for a new dining room with dinnerware. The
products: Tums tablets, Little Debbie Honey Buns,
Airborne Jr., Hot Pockets, and Goldfish crackers. He
goes for eight honey buns at $1.39 a pop. That's $11.12,
and that's the Bullseye!
Finally,
Andriana de Odria wins a karaoke and gets to use the
microphone to scream That's Too Much! The prize: a Ford
Focus. She thinks that $19,980 is Too Much, and That's
Too Right! But the sun shines on Maurice, as he may yet
get his car in the Showcase.
All depends on
what's in it. First up, the TPIR cheerleaders (who, I
should add, you'll never catch in a run-in with police
at Tampa) cheer for a cocktail ring (R!), a
fridge/freezer (A!), a trip to British Columbia (C!).
Put it together and what do you get? RAC! Turn it
around, you idiot! CAR! That would be a Chevy Impala.
Top winner Victoria keeps it and bids $32,000. Maurice
gets a new game room with Coca-Cola machine replica, a
pool table, & a Donkey Kong/Donkey Kong Jr./Mario Bros
arcade game, and a trip to Rio. Maurice bids $28,500.
Actual price: $19,897. He's over. Actual price of
Victoria's Showcase... $31,530. Only by $470, she's
over! So a show that started out with so much promise
ends in a double overbid.
Stats: 4/6,
$65,793, and no car for Maurice. |

Score by
Chico Alexander, GSNN
Air time: 4:30p ET/3:30p CT on MTV
Host: Ryan Cabrera |
|
|
Marcie
(Northglenn, CO; singer); comic relief, loves Janet
Jackson and Stevie Wonder, describes music as "poppy
with an R&B groove with a little rock thrown in". |
|
Dorothy
(San Diego, CA; guitarist); likes Norah Jones,
Incubus, and chai tea lattes, a bit of a romantic,
describes music as "very ecletic". |
|
Emmanuel
Jones (20;
Los Angeles; step master); likes to dance and shop,
considers music "life". |
Let's see if the
writers can step to these words: Emmanuel, step master,
shop, fresh. On the line, a date in Puerto Vallarta.
First in the writing room,
Marcie just starts singing something that sounds like Scissor
Sisters. Then she goes into the melody. Meanwhile, Dorothy goes
through a few keys with the band. Ryan's notes on Marcie: just a
little monotonous.
Switch as the band is
falling dead asleep.
Dorothy explains coffee house alternative, which, if you don't
know, is exactly what Phoebe from "Friends" sings. Dorothy injects
a few soul bars in it. Meanwhile, Marcie decides that she won't
need a guitarist... but "she does need bodies." "We're not
stepping." Ryan's notes on Dorothy: doesn't really have much at
all.
Step master Emmanuel is
being tucked away in Ryan's little cubbie hole there. He's looking
for a beat. First up, Marcie, looking like Janet Jackson. She
sings "Your Girl" without the aid of a stepping band. Well, you
can't say you didn't try. Emmanuel does a little step in the hole.
He digs it.
Then comes Dorothy, who
looks like Norah Jones if she dressed like Janet Jackson. She
sings "Got to Love On". Sounds kinda like Bob Marley to start, but
it would sound better if she was on pitch! "I like that a lot."
Emmanuel's got a hard
choice... Number three? No! He chose... Marcie. |

Trato
Hecho by Gordon Pepper, GSNN
Air time: Noon ET/11a CT on Univision
Host: Guillermo Huesca |
|
Catalina is dressed
up as a nice present. She'd love a present for herself -
and she gets one in the form of $50. But she can also
have a bigger present...with wheels...in the form of a
$14,920 Ford Focus! All Catalina has to do is to price
Windex Wipes, Tilex Mildew, Formby's Lemon Oil Treatment
and Spectracide Weed Stop within the price limits set.
First up - the WIndex within 2 bucks. Guess - $2.50.
Actual Price - $2.66 and so far, so good. Can she get
the Tilex within $1.50? Guess - $3.50. Price - $3.92 and
she's 2 for 2. The third item - the Formby's - within 1
dollar. Guess - $4.00. Price - $5.43 and no car for
Catalina. She does get $200 for each item right, and she
can get another $200 for a 50 cent guess on the
Spectracide. Guess - $6.50. Price - $5.97 and no more
money for Catalina.
Guillermo isn't done yet with Catalina, as he offers her
Curtain #2 for the $450. She doesn't want it, and turns
down a new kitchen with refrigerator, dishwasher and
stove worth $2,097. She does have $450 though, which
isn't too bad.
Next up to play
is Adeline, who is a gypsy girl. She can boogie away
with
$300, or she can spend it for Curtain #3...OR she can
also trade for the card that Guillermo has. Adelina
takes the card and she doesn't collect a Giant Tea Cup
which is big enough for her to go swimming in a Chasco
Pool. She instead gets money in the envelope - $1,200
worth!
Raggedy Anna
wants to do a deal as well, and Guillermo will give her
$400 - if she should step on a scale to reveal her
weight. Carlos the guitar player or Walter the boxer
will also get money, pending on who is closer to the
weight of Ana and the stagehand combined. The weight is
343 pounds. Walter's Guess - 280. Carlos's Guess - 295.
Carlos is closer, so he gets $400 - and a chance to
trade it away for Curtain #1. Carlos wants the money,
but he could have had a new sofa worth $899. Now it's
time for Ana to decide if she wants to keep the money or
go for the box. She also wants the money and this time,
she could have been going to Las Vegas with $600 worth
of gas for a prize worth $1,306.
Next up - The Gran Trato. Playing for it will be Adeline
(who gives up $1,200) and Catalina (who gives up $450).
Adeline wants Door #2 and Catalina wants Door #3. We
first see, Door...#3, which has $850 - a nice little
upgrade for Catalina. Adeline will also get a nice
upgrade of gift, but her trip to Curacao worth $2,125 is
not as good as the sofa, tables, and lamp worth $5,220
that either of them could have had should either of them
have picked Door #1. We'll try to see if anyone will
select the right door on the next show. |

Wheel
of Fortune by Jason Block & Chico Alexander, GSNN
Air time: Check listings or
wheeloffortune.com
Hosts: Pat Sajak & Vanna White |
|
With the city of
New Orleans rebuilding after Hurricane Katrina, we see
the first of 2 weeks of shows taped in August just
before the hurricane hit. We are celebrating "Fabulous
Food" this week on WOF! Pat and Vanna ask for your help in
the continued rebuilding effort and will match the first
$100,000 donated at wheeloffortune.com.
The $1,000 Tossup is On the Menu. Preschool teacher
Janet Spears of Pascagoula, MS gets $1000 from the
BLUE-PLATE SPECIAL. Ray O'Sullivan is a retired sales
manager from Hammond, LA. Tasha Walters is a pharmacist
from Jay, FL. Let's go In the Kitchen for the $2,000 Tossup.
Ray gets POTATO MASHER for $2000. He starts the prize
round with a trip to Madrid on the Wheel. It's worth
$4086. And way to be a sport from Janet, as she's
cheering for big money from everyone. Janet solves
PANCAKE HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN FOR $7300.
The Eggland's Best Jackpot round is a phrase. Janet does
it again with BENDING OVER BACKWARDS for another $3350.
The Mystery round prize is $10,000 in cash. That'll buy
a lot of crayfish. The category
is Song Lyrics, and it's a Prize Puzzle. Janet just
controls the Wheel, picking up the trip to Madrid and
solving IT'S ONE FOR THE MONEY TWO FOR THE SHOW for
that, $6450, and another trip to Las Vegas! And if
you've got Spin ID LA 04509.
Janet's roll
continues with the $3000 Tossup, a SMART COOKIE. That
leads us into a Fictional Character. After one regular
call, we're down to the Final Spin of $1400. Ray solves
THE GORTON'S FISHERMAN for $4200, giving him $6200 for
the day. Tasha gets the house minimum of $1000, but
Janet is the big winner with $29,566 in cash and trips!
But what's one
more prize gonna hurt? It's Bonus Round time. We're
dealing with a Living Thing. With the regular six and
MDP A:
_ A L _ _ _ T
She couldn't get
HALIBUT for $25,000... Which seems like small potatoes
when you consider that she's got $29,566.

Who
Wants to Be a Millionaire by Don Harpwood, GSNN
Air time: Check listings or
millionairetv.com
Host: Meredith Vieira |

Yesterday, as Play
To Pay For Your Wedding Week began, David Wieland &
Sarah Badics (Chicago, IL) made it all the way to
$100,000. And they're not done yet.
As far as what to do with their winnings, Sarah mentions
that they'd like to upgrade a few aspects of what's
already planned, like getting a band to play at the
wedding and some meal choices, plus they'd like to make
some good plans for the honeymoon. Speaking of which,
David would like for that to happen in Hawaii. With all
that being said, they resume with this question, worth
$250,000...
Who is the only U.S. astronaut to have flown on Mercury,
Gemini, and Apollo missions?
A: James Lovell
B: Alan Shepard
C: Buzz Aldrin
D: Wally Schirra
Neither of them know it, so they decide to use their
last lifeline and call David's brother, Chris.
Unfortunately, he couldn't come up with an answer in
time. So, David & Sarah decide to stop right here and
walk. After finding out that the answer was D, they head
out with $100,000, which ties this season's highest
money total awarded so far!
Next up are Ken Wincko & Amy Kitchell (New York, NY).
These two met during an intramural coed touch football
thing, where she was playing and he was the ref. And she
tried her hardest to get his attention, but as Ken said,
it went over his head. Well, something had to have
worked, as they're here now. They start by knowing that
according to tradition, a man asks for a woman's hand in
marriage after getting permission from her father
(though if the woman were to have a parole officer, the
man would probably want to think about it first). Ken &
Amy manage to build some momentum as they continue
through, eventually getting to this $16,000 question...
In the 2005 movie "War of the Worlds," a dad and his two
kids must flee as the aliens pulverize his hometown in
what U.S. state?
A: New Jersey
B: California
C: Florida
D: Illinois
Neither Ken nor Amy saw the movie, so they ask the
audience. 66% of the studio audience and 61% of the AIM
users go with A. Ken & Amy trust the audience... and
they're right! After a break, they receive a $1,000 gift
certificate from Kohl's, which is theirs to keep
regardless of how they do. They then get to $25,000, but
at the next level, they don't know what Wagner opera the
melody for the wedding song "Here Comes the Bride" is
from (Lohengrin), so they switch that question out, and
in comes this one for $50,000...
In 1994, what TV show broke ground when it depicted a
gay marriage between innkeepers Ron and Erick?
A: Roseanne
B: Party of Five
C: Northern Exposure
D: Picket Fences
Ken thinks it's not A or B, then he and Amy decide to
call Amy's friend, Jennifer, who thinks it's A, but is
only about 50% sure. Ken & Amy then use the 50:50, and A
is removed, along with D. So much for the
Phone-a-Friend's help... After talking it over for a
bit, they decide to go with C... and they're right! They
then walk due to not knowing what country the Bodele
Depression, which is thought to be the world's largest
single source of dust, is located in (Chad), which means
they head home with $50,000!
That's all for today. We've had 2 big wins so far this
week; could another couple top either of them tomorrow?
We'll just have to wait and see.
Just as a reminder, you can enter a contest at
www.theknot.com/millionaire, where someone will win a
trip to Hawaii! To enter, you just need to correctly
answer a question from the end of one of this week's
shows, and if you missed it, or you don't remember, here
is today's question...
Which of these is not one of the "4 C's" of picking out
a diamond engagement ring?
A: Clarity
B: Cut
C: Class
D: Color |
