The show features one lucky contestant paired up with two singles of the opposite sex. At the end of the dual date, the contestant must choose between the dates. The catch? One of the singles is truly looking for love, while the other one is a pretender out to win a luxury trip with their real significant other. THURSDAYS from 10-10:30 PM ET/PT (Premieres March 18) -- Kenny VS. Spenny A fresh hybrid that blends reality, game and comedy genres into an exciting and fun-filled half-hour hour of TV, Kenny VS. Spenny stars show creators Kenny Hotz and Spencer "Spenny" Rice. Kenny VS. Spenny focuses on the sibling-like rivalry between these two longtime friends who are a contemporary real-life odd couple. Spenny is a neurotic "stress case" who believes in winning by playing fair, hard work and preparation. Kenny, on the other hand, is charismatic and a self-proclaimed 'devious genius' who likes to bend the rules in order to win a challenge. These fundamental differences fuel the competition and provide some very twisted comedy.

Adding his edgy with to the first season of the show is host Michael Ian Black; in Season 2, the lovely Ali Landry added her humor and charm to the series.

Bold and irreverent, Video Game Invasion delves into the fascinating world of tech-heads as they pushed the technological envelope to create such breakthrough early games as Pong and Space Invaders, and subsequently emerged with the huge international corporations that now dominate the multi-billion dollar video game industry. Paying homage to those unique individuals for pushing the game envelope and making the industry bigger than theatrical motion pictures, GSN's second-ever documentary takes us on an adventure through the video game phenomenon. |
