Actor Ashton Kutcher is begging his wife Demi Moore to take to the stage on an upcoming U.S. TV gameshow he is producing.
The new series, called Opportunity Knocks, quizzes family members on how well they know each other.
And Kutcher, who is stepfather to Rumer, 19, Scout, 16, and Tallulah, 14 - Moore's daughters with action star Bruce Willis - is convinced his handsome Hollywood family would make the perfect team.
He says, "She'd be a genius. I actually think that in general the moms on this show are going to do a lot better than everybody else in the family."

Demi Moore and her husband Ashton Kutcher have completed a stint in Central America - building houses for a charity project.
The Indecent Proposal star and her partner spent a week digging and moving piles of bricks to improve conditions for residents in poverty-stricken areas of Guatemala.
The couple's charity work in the area comes after Moore's daughter Scout spent several weeks working on the project earlier this year.
A source tells British newspaper the Mail on Sunday, "They were working in Guatemala for a charity that helps indigenous organic farmers.
.Demi and Ashton were actually building houses with tin roofs and schlepping (moving) breeze blocks in the midday sun. Ashton's father is a carpenter so he has some experience."

What's it like having Bruce Willis as your dad, Demi Moore as your mom and Ashton Kutcher as your stepdad? "Great!" according to Rumer Willis, who told reporters Thursday at a press conference in Los Angeles for her upcoming comedy The House Bunny, "I'm probably one of the luckiest girls around." "I get to share holidays and (for my parents) to be able to set an example like that, my family's done something I hope for many other people," Willis, 19, said, "I don't think I would be the same person without it." Willis, who previously had a few small roles in movies,

Wilmer Valderrama is to return to comedy TV - he's co-producing and starring in new series The Emancipation Of Ernesto.

But he has now signed a pilot deal to return to the Fox TV network with The Emancipation of Ernesto - about a naive man who struggles to avoid the temptations of Hollywood as he searches for his father, reports industry publication Variety.

We recently reported that the star of That '70s Show appeared in the Chrysalis Butterfly Ball, where he was accompanied by none other than Demi Moore. There, he told the Associated Press how much he and Moore believed in the organization's thrust, and how they have been supporting it through the years. Aside from Kutcher, the star studded event included stars from hit television shows such as Grey's Anatomy. Aside from this charity event, Kutcher has had a lot on his plate this past few weeks. In fact, the creator of Beauty and the Geek has been very busy with his new big screen offering entitled What Happens in Vegas, where he stars alongside Cameron Diaz.
However, it isn't these endeavors that have gotten the attention of Kutcher fans all over the States. Recently, the actor has sported a scruffy look, which some attributed to a new role he is supposed to play.

I'm sorry, but if my choices are superheroes, Sarah Jessica Parker's handbag materialism, Ashton Kutcher, learn-to-love-again indies and an Adam Sandler comedy that couldn't even muster enough jokes for a two-minute trailer, then I'll stay home and have a conversation with Chris Marker. I'll at least be assured of having truthful contact with a real human consciousness, of having learned, of having been made aware of cultural connections no other artist would make and of bearing witness to first-hand history. An integral soldier in the French New Wave, Marker is famous here only for "La Jetée" (1962), the beloved all-stills time travel mega-short that was remade by Terry Gilliam as "12 Monkeys." Though he's remained a prolific manufacturer of cinema into his 80s, he's never been a meta-acrobat like Godard and Resnais and Rivette, nor a romantic ironist like Truffaut or Rohmer or Demy, and it's been virtually impossible to see his films,

While we know Ashton Kutcher for his wacky stunts on Punk’d and That ‘70s Show and his brainchild, Beauty and the Geek, more recently, the actor has tended to some serious matters, including last week’s exclusive Butterfly Ball benefiting Chrysalis, a Los Angeles-based organization which aims to help homeless men and women find jobs and homes as well. Joining Kutcher at the event was Demi Moore, and newly-weds Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller.
“We love it, and we really believe in it,” Moore said before the event, the Associated Press reports.
At the purple carpet entrance before the event, Sheen and Mueller caught the attention of the media as it was the couple’s first appearance as husband and wife. In fact, the Two and a Half Men star and the Mueller, a real estate agent, began dating last summer after meeting at the Chrysalis event of 2006. However,

Hollywood heartthrob Ashton Kutcher was once a serial womaniser who bedded as many women as possible - until he met his wife Demi Moore.
Kutcher, 30, quickly became a household name after landing a role on hit TV series That '70s Show - and the actor admits he used his fame to help him seduce scores of fans.
But it wasn't until he met Moore, 45, five years ago that he contemplated swapping one-night stands for a long-term relationship.
He says, "Social conditioning raises guy to get laid. I think I was very much like this myself. I had no desire to be in a relationship whatsoever. I had sworn myself off relationships before I met Demi.
"At the time we met I was in New York partying and I was hosting Saturday Night Live and I was saying to myself, 'I am going to party, I'm going to sleep with this girl and that girl.'
"Then I met my wife. As soon as you make that decision not to have a relationship, you will find one."
Kutcher and Moore wed in a private ceremony at their Beverly Hills home in 2005.

Funnyman Ashton Kutcher is contemplating adopting a child with his wife, actress Demi Moore.
The 30-year-old is stepfather to Rumer, 19, Scout, 16, and Tallulah, 14 - Moore's daughters with action star Bruce Willis - and the actor insists he dreams of "someday" expanding their brood with children of his own.
But the Hollywood heartthrob admits he hasn't ruled out adoption, since he has always been drawn to the idea of taking in an orphaned child.
He says, "I have thought about adopting a kid my whole life. When I was eight I had a friend called Terry and one day he told me he was adopted.
"He said his parents told him there was a more special bond between them because they picked him. I thought that was pretty profound and I would be open to the idea."

Ashton Kutcher has admitted that he regularly slept around before he met his wife Demi Moore.
The What Happens In Vegas actor said that he used to enjoy partying too much to bother with long-term relationships.
