{{
An American [[Game Show]] aired by [[The Hub]], which is one of the many examples of quality programming on the network that doesn't involve [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
Games we've seen include:
Line 10:
* '''''Guesstures'' Free Fall:''' Essentially charades, but with the clue givers suspended over a "pit" and "dropped" if the guessing family member passes. The format plays somewhat like ''[[Pyramid]]'' in that the object is to get as many as possible in two minutes.
* '''''Operation'' Relay:''' Much like its source, the teams use tweezers to get as many pieces from Cavity Sam as possible within two minutes. Getting buzzed sends you to the back of the line, while getting a piece means you have to navigate a short obstacle course for the points.
* '''''Scrabble Flash'':''' It's the crossword game you've played all your life...but not quite like ''[[Scrabble (TV series)|that]]''. Teams make words (3-5 letters) using five huge electronic letter tiles, with points awarded based on the length of each word.
* '''''Sorry! Sliders'':''' Each team pushes its two giant-sized pawns into one of four rings for points (from outside to inside, Sorry!-1-3-5). Like shuffleboard, teams can hit their opponents' pawns to change the score.
* '''''Twister'' Lights Out:''' ...With the dots on a video board on the floor. The dots begin to disappear as play goes on, and last member standing wins the round. Combination of ''Twister'' and ''Lights Out'', the latter an electronic game by Hasbro subsidiary Tiger Electronics.
Line 17:
After the games are played, the "Monopoly Crazy Cash Cards" (earned by winning games) are inserted into the Crazy Cash Machine to reveal their values and spit out a bunch of ''Monopoly'' money. While most are worth from $100 to $995 (in $5 increments), at least one is worth between $1,000 and $5,000.
But '''one''' card out of those 21 is the Top Cash Card, which if inserted will [[Break the Bank (1985
The Season 1 episode featuring Leah's and Sabrina's families is included on the DVD ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic

* [[All or Nothing]]: Averted, since everyone keeps any cash and prizes won.
* [[Bonus Round]]: Sort of; whoever banks more money from Crazy Cash Cards wins the bonus prize, while both teams keep their winnings. Unusual, in that it decides the game.
* [[Golden Snitch]]: Due to how the bonus round is played, a team who loses all five games can still have the Top Cash Card from that 1/21 pick at the beginning of the game. As both families keep their cash and prizes, and "winning" only adds an additional prize like a vacation, this point may be moot.
* [[Home Game]]: Mostly subverted. The rounds are based off games you've played all your life, but [[Scrabble (TV series)|never quite like this]]! <ref>(And not quite like ''that'', either.)</ref> ''Scrabble Flash'' and ''Sorry! Sliders'' were released some time before the show's debut (although they're quite normal-sized).
* Personnel:
** [[The Announcer]]: Burton Richardson.
