20130411 Watch Melissa on ABC's Bet On Your Baby
Do you love Melissa Peterman?
Well, now she's hosting our sister network ABC's new show Bet On Your Baby!
All parents think they know their baby well,
but are they willing to bet on it?
ABC's Bet On Your Baby will reveal the answer
to that question each week in an hour-long program,
featuring five memorable families with toddlers
between the ages of two to three-and-a-half years old,
who will play to see how well they can guess their child's next move
in the hopes of earning money towards their college fund.
Actress/comedienne and working mom Melissa Peterman,
star of ABC Family's Baby Daddy and Dancing Fools,
will host the adorable, hilarious and surprisingly suspenseful game show,
Bet on Your Baby, which airs Saturday at 8/7c on ABC.
On Bet on Your Baby,
the parents will be playing the game and the children will just be playing.
The game takes place on two stages -
on one, a shiny game show studio with a cheering audience,
one parent places a bet, while on the other,
the parent takes the child to a play room called "The Babydome"
where the child determines the outcome of the game completely
unaware of the stakes that are on the line.
Each family plays a self-contained,
individual challenge against the house --
meaning that they're only competing against themselves,
not against other families.
Later on, the five families return to play for the chance
to advance to the final round - "Smash for Cash" -
in which parents of one toddler will have 5 tries to hammer open piggy banks,
one of which contains a $50,000 college fund.
