Gameplay
Two teams of four players each (consisting of three celebrities and one contestant) play a series of games all while driving each other crazy. While the celebrities played for laughs, the civilian players compete for the right to win $25,000.

Games

 * Crunch Time: Players on both teams took turns playing this game. They were shown pictures of bowls of popular snacks. The first player to buzz-in with a correct snack scored a point. If a player buzzes in and is wrong, the opponent took a chance. Each pair of players who sit across from each other gets two turns.
 * Take the Hint: (Standard Password) The team in control is given 90 seconds to convey general items. The celebrities gave one word clues to their contestant captain to communicate to him/her with. The contestant captain in control gets only one guess per answer and each correct answer scores a point.
 * Lil' Picassos: Kids from schools across America drew pictures of famous people and it's up to the players to identify them. The players were given clues about the pictures to help them. The first player to buzz-in with a correct answer scores two points. Each pair of players who sit diagonally from each other gets two turns.
 * Timeline: This is played like The Price is Right's Race Game. One celebrity player from the controlling team chosen by the contestant captain is faced with six pictures of a famous person. That celebrity has 90 seconds to place them all in chronological order from the earliest taken picture to the latest taken picture. When the controlling celebrity was done with the picture placement, he/she hit a button nearby and Jane told him/her how many that celebrity got right. Every time the controlling celebrity got less then six correct, he/she went back and made some changes. The partners were allowed to help out all the way. When time was up or if the celebrity got them all right, the controlling team scored two points for each correct picture placement. When both teams took a turn, a five point bonus was awarded to the team who got the most right or had the faster time in case of a tie.
 * I Love a Charade: This game was a 90 second tag team round and all the subjects in this round fit under a specific category. The team in control took turns acting out different subjects for the duration of 90 seconds. Each correct answer is worth five points.

The team with the most points at the end of play won the game and advanced to the $25,000 bonus round.

Celebrity Name Game (Bonus Round)
In the bonus game called "Celebrity Name Game" the winning contestant chooses one of his/her partner to play with. The chosen celebrity describes a different celebrity as best as he/she can for the contestant to guess. A correct answer or pass moved on to the next celebrity. Each correct answer awarded $1,000 to both players (not just the contestant like in most celebrity game shows). Identifying 10 celebrities in 90 seconds or less won $25,000 for the contestant and $10,000 for the celebrity. All money won by the celebrity is donated his/her favorite charity.
