Comic Bill Engvall, of "Blue Collar TV" fame, hosts this word-building game show, an updated version of the Chuck Woolery-hosted 2002-2007 show that also aired on GSN. Each episode features two duos who compete to identify five-letter mystery words. The contestants are given the first letter of each word and have five chances to complete the word. Each correct word earns the team points and a chance at more points by getting a "lingo," a line consisting of five in a row horizontally, vertically or diagonally on a bingo-style game board. The team that finishes the main game with a higher score goes to the final round and has 90 seconds to correctly guess five words to win the top prize of $100,000.
