Deal or No Deal

#1 Postby SamSagnella » Tue May 09, 2006 6:01 pm

I really don't get 'sucked in' to shows like this very often, but this show rocks! Anyone else developing a dangerous obsession with what I think is the best game show on TV (except for Jeopardy!)? I have been watching a lot less TV lately because of school commitments, but I cannot manage to ween myself of of this one, especially since it's on three nights a week.

There's also an online version of the game, which is kinda cool but does no justice to the excitement of the real thing.

I love the show, though I think I'm watching it too much because last night I wasn't as interested. The number of airings will be down to 2 next week(Monday and Wednesday) and only on Mondays for the next 3 weeks after and then it'll be in repeats or not on til Fall.

I love the show too, but I can't figure out why it is so addictive.

CM - you are so bad!

I want to tell him, I liked his appearance on St. Elsewhere much better than this one. He needs ~some~ hair, even if sparse. I want my Fiscus back!

For me it's screaming at the TV "Deal" or "No Deal". :lol: :P

The show's pretty good, but the fakeness and the wimpy contestants annoy me sometimes. I try to look past it, though, so I can enjoy it. And for the most part, I do. At least, I think I do... after all, I've only seen every show. :wink:

I know I do. That's why I decided to create the Deal or No Deal Models Tournament just a few hours ago. Voting just started 20 minutes ago, so hopefully a lot of you will vote in it. The link is below. :)

Also, I've got a page with recaps for every show that you guys might find useful. Click here to see it.

I like the show. If it's on, I'll stop what I'm doing and watch it.

OK, you guys, this is another one I am going to have to look at. I might be missing a bunch of good shows by just watching CNN :roll:

It's on tomorrow night at 8PM (ET) on NBC, but Monday's two-hour episode should be good. Lots of things are going to happen in that one.

Some reminders:

1) The second round of my Deal or No Deal Models Tournament is underway (the link is in a previous post of mine above);

2) Deal or No Deal's on at 8PM (ET) tonight on NBC. This is the last Friday show of the season, as Brent reported above.

Hard to believe there's only five shows left. It'll be weird without DOND on every night, but it's a much-needed break. You know what happened to Millionaire, and the same thing would likely happen to DOND if they didn't give it a long break. So as I said, this is much-needed. I just hope when they bring it back in the fall, they'll have some improvements. I don't want to see the same old show in September.
