"Minute to Win It" gives you everything you loved at your eighth birthday party, now with cash prizes instead of cake and ice cream. Recently renewed for another season, NBC's flagship no-brainer game show returns with all the audience's favorite games and a few new wrinkles. As always, contestants will enjoy opportunities to dazzle with their skill at balancing dice on popsicle sticks, flipping pencils from the backs of their hands, collecting balanced balls while blindfolded, and clocking circular steps on a pedometer. In the American version, "["Minute to Win It'] features everyday Americans competing in 60-second challenges with household objects for a shot at a million bucks. But as the money increases, so does the level of difficulty." These strikingly attractive, fit "everyday Americans," of course, have been practicing these tricky maneuvers on their gaming systems and rec room floors, so that they generally will risk all their big earnings to stay in the game; social historians call that risk-taking "rugged American determination." With a million American dollars at stake, the reward apparently is worth the risk. "Minute to Win It" airs in seventeen other countries, comes in a board-game format, and has been adapted for PlayStation and Wii.

24 Hour Catwalk

The concept is: four designers find they are in competition to create their own designer collection and have only one day in which to accomplish it. Hosted by Alexa Chung and with Derek Blasberg, Cynthia Rowley, and James LaForce as judges, the show gets interesting due to the competitive nature of these contestants. Who would think there would be so much serious struggling to rise to the top in designer fashion? One episode shows fashion taking a turn at maternity attire with contestants using a "trunk load" of diapers to create something stylish and with a maternity appearance. When the competition narrows down to just two they proceed to the 24 hour challenge in which they must create fashions for the whole family by use of a stuffed teddy bear. Both designers need to create the correct look in their collection for a newborn baby, then a toddler, next a teenager, and finally a mother. It gets complicated when each has their own designer's idea of what is fashionable for each age group.

Building Green

Ever wonder how to build something that is sustainable and won't hurt the environment? Building a new home and want to keep it "green" without costing twice as much as conventional construction? The prospects are endless and money can be saved while improving the health and comfort of residence when planning and designing then building that dream home the right way. Building Green is not only a concept but a religion that has a growing following around this great planet we call earth. Initially the green approach was far more expensive than more traditional methods of construction but with better ideas and improved building materials and tools we find that the manufacture of sustainable, non-polluting, environmentally safe homes and business buildings is not only possible but also the preferred method that takes us into the 21st century and well beyond. Being able to watch these construction projects on TV, as they go from concept through completion, helps get the idea across that we must alter some of the old school methods and incorporate new ideas into the blue prints to keep our world safe and healthy for future generations.

Degrassi: The Next Generation

This weekly teen comedy drama is run like a soap opera because it plays so often each week. Playing With Time, the production company that puts Degrassi on the air is owned and run by Linda Schuyler, a former school teacher who knows what kids like to see. This entertaining program as been around long enough now, and is in its (tenth season), so the audience interest has changed and moved down a generation. Now more comedy than ever is displayed in episodes that have at least two and usually three individual story lines or plots. The first one is the shows opener and usually also finishes that episode. A running plot that continues from one episode into the next is common, attempting to bring back viewers to see what will happen next. Music plays an important part of Degrassi: The Next Generation as it does in the real life of someone in those teenage years. Most episodes are actually named for particular songs, mostly from the 1980's.

Red Hot and Green

The earth friendly thing to do currently is "go green" and that means taking care of our environment while we also help preserve and protect nature. Everyone knows how harmful some chemicals and insecticides have proven to be, even to the point of making many species extinct. By recycling, reusing, and in many instances, repurposing much of what is otherwise cast aside we help by making our environment sustainable. We want our grandchildren to be able to see and appreciate all the glory of nature and live in a safe atmosphere free from harmful chemicals. It has taken us decades to put earth in harms way but with care and thoughtful planning we can reverse most of the damage already done. Carter Oosterhouse and Nicole Facciuto help show how to cut cost of energy while "going green" on the HGTV program Red Hot & Green. They demonstrate ways to be environmentally aware without making sacrifices in style. Use of bamboo, sea grass, and mother alternative and environment friendly materials we can decorate and still "save the planet" by living in healthier and much more sustainable surroundings.
