Big Star Little Star on USA is a new family game show that asks celebrities questions about their children, and vice versa. For example, when former NFL football player Chad Johnson is asked what he craves most, he says Snickers. But when the question is put to his daughter, she says the thing her father craves most is attention. Ouch! For the premiere episode, the Johnsons will be competing against Todd Chrisley and his son Grayson of Chrisley Knows Best and actress/singer Marissa Jaret Winokur and son Zev. The winner gets to give $25,000 to the charity of their choice.
