The Great Christmas Light Fight is a new competition series in which 20 families from across America will decorate their homes to the extreme for Christmas - in ways that would certainly make even Clark Griswold envious - with a total of $250,000 in prizing ($50,000 won each week).

The HOLT Family - Chesapeake, Virginia. Allen and Cattina Holt dress as elves, and dance with the neighborhood kids under their snow machine.

The GOFF Family - Canon, Georgia. The Goff's are chicken farmers who use their entire property for their display. It's so large, visitors can drive through it!

The BLOUNT Family - Laguna Hills, California. This California couple composed their own original song for their precise synchronized display on one of the largest residential light grids in the country.

The LYNCH Family - Whitestone, New York. Kevin Lynch, a retired New York firefighter who experienced 9/11, buries all the cords in front of his real-life gingerbread house.

The PLAUCHE Family - Pass Christian, Mississippi. The Plauches home survived Hurricane Katrina and they wanted to share the positive spirit of Christmas lights with their less fortunate neighbors. They "Let the Good Times Roll" when a Mardi Gras float launches their spirited show, which has a rockin' version of "N-O-E-L" to the tune of "YMCA".

The LARSEN Family - Elburn, Illinois. Confident Brian Larsen promises Michael Moloney "this is like nothing you have ever seen". Does Michael agree?

The YANGELLO Family - Pennsville, New Jersey. Everyone gets in the act when this singing clan performs on the rooftop of their Christmas classic house display.

The BAUGHMAN Family - Prosper, Texas. "It's All About Jesus", for the Baughmans, and when they present their display to Michael, which includes an arch over the entire house, there is no denying their love of Christmas.
