Are you SEXY, HOT, FUNNY & OUTGOING? Think you could be good enough to win up to $100,000??

The hit LATE-NIGHT game show STREET SMARTS is back for a 5th season, with a whole new twist....

Winning contestants MAY have the opportunity to gamble their winnings in order to play for a $100,000 PRIZE!

If you are in the Los Angeles area and are over 18, please send us your contact information (including your phone number so that we may call you to schedule an audition) and a picture.

**DO NOT SUBMIT UNLESS YOU KNOW HOW TO PLAY THE GAME AND HAVE SEEN THE SHOW**

I actually think that Street Smarts did need a slight increase in Prize money, but not that much. Oh well- we'll have to wait and see what this "twist" is first.

I thought that if they ever did a Tournament of Champions, the grand prize should be a $10,000 vacation.

Perhaps a full-season tournament with $100K for the winner (think the old "Scrabble All-American Tournament"), but I would not think they'd make that kind of a jump for regular play.

 I think a bonus round would work, played just like the Wager of Death. Guess right, you can multiply your winnings by 10x or so, but $100,000? I just might have to check it out...if I can find out when the damn show airs in my area. ;-)

 Well, if you get the WGN Superstation feed, it airs from 3-4 PM ET M/F (Double Run)...as for the way of local affiliates...I couldn't honestly tell you.

Well, I could say it was because they got renewed by the skin of their teeth, but they get renewed by the skin of their teeth every year.

Perhaps Jim Paratore told Snot Bomb that either they really improve in the numbers this year or they're gone--although I don't Mo' Money Syndrome as appropriate in this case at all, since the show's never been about the money.
