It's really stupid for these things to happen when it's all hyped up and such. This show has let me down more times then I count so I just turn off the TV when the $1,000,000 goes off the board. Bottom line, this show is going down the tube since there is nothing but "bad luck".

The show also air's 3 nights a week on NBC. Why can't they do that with "The Chair"? They should bring that show back and make the top prize over $500,000. :)

New game show will be launched from Deal or No Deal on Fridays!

From Zap2it:

NBC Gets Its (Other) Game On
'1 vs. 100' heads to Fridays, 'Jordan' held back

September 27, 2006

LOS ANGELES -- NBC has made its first scheduling change of the season -- one that doesn't involve a show currently on the air.

The network announced Wednesday that it will roll out a new game show, "1 vs. 100," for a five-week run on Fridays starting Oct. 13. It will debut at 9 p.m. ET, following an episode of "Deal or No Deal," then move to 8 p.m. the following week and serve as a lead-in for the season premiere of "Las Vegas."

As a result, veteran drama "Crossing Jordan" -- which was scheduled to fill the 8 p.m. Friday spot starting the 20th -- is being nudged aside for now. Its premiere date hasn't been rescheduled yet.

"This entertaining game is a proven winner from Europe that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats as the pressure builds with every question and the financial stakes grow higher," NBC Entertainment boss Kevin Reilly says. "The introduction of this new show also allows us the luxury of saving such a proven and versatile series as 'Crossing Jordan' for use later in the season."

Comedian Bob Saget ("The Aristocrats," "Full House") will host "1 vs. 100," in which one player will face off in a trivia challenge against 100 competitors. The solo player has to answer every question correctly, while hoping members of the 100-person mob answer wrong and are eliminated. If the player eliminates everyone, he or she will take home $1 million. Should the single player miss a question, the remaining players among the 100 will split the pot.

The show originated in the Netherlands and has become a hit in several countries. It was brought to these shores by Endemol USA, which also produces "Deal or No Deal."

Bad streak for the DOND'ers right now.. I think only 1 of the last 4 contestants has walked out with 6 digits after the 750,000 last Friday..

I'm interested to see what 1 vs 100 will be like on 10/13..

"bad streak" is a bit of a understatement. There has been nothing but bad luck and lame games. This could be the start of the death of Deal or No Deal....I'm sick of it myself.

Bob Saget hosting a game show? The day has come! :D I can't wait to see how this one plays out.

Since it returned 2 weeks ago I have become VERY uninterested and bored with it. I've started watching Wife Swap live rather than recording it and I find myself only flipping by DOND briefly, not sticking with it.

I don't even watch the Thursday show at all, and barely watch the Friday edition. It's not must-see for me anymore.

I doubt they will get off the bad streak since this new theory I created comes into play. Lets call it the "DART" theory:

Dart Theory -- A theory in which the game show "Deal or No Deal" which the network NBC shows on TV, has a constant bad luck streak. As a rule of thumb, the contestant will "get rid of" the suitcase with $1,000,000 within the first 2 "rounds". Other high amounts should get knocked off in no time. The players will be faced with low bank offers and crap game plays. The player will take a low money offer near the end of the game with a much higher amount of money in the case they picked at the start of the show. This theory is in full effect since the start of the 2nd season of the game show. The 1st season did not experience this effect.

:lol:

Dart Theory was in full effect in tonight's Deal or No Deal show. The women could have walked out of there with $540,000 and $500,000 was in her case. She took a deal of $193,000 and played it safe which was a bit of a mistake IMO. One thing that was against Dart Theory was the $1,000,000 was not knocked out before the 3rd bank offer. That was lucky of her.

Another piece of info was she played a "perfect game" for the first 2 case opens ($0.01 and $1).

I feel so bad about the lady that was just on.. She went for it.. kept going for it. and right before the last offer she knocked out the 500 K.

She only won $750..

Now the new guy on can't seem to get off the boards right side lol..

Bring on 1 vs 100 Friday lol..

Ditto and 100% agreed.

I like how that women went all the way. It means a higher chance of getting a very low $ amount or a very high one. Of course, DART theory is still working wonders on this game show....

More hype.. I don't know if any of u watched it but the girl that was on tonight is doing unbelievably well.. She even just turned down an offer of almost $260,000 and I think that banker is scared lol..

anyway.. only 5 cases remain.. Lets see if we have our 1st 1 million dollar winner tomorrow.. Something also tells me that because tomorrow is FRIDAY the 13th.. we're in for a let down..

Great lead in to the pilot of 1 vs 100 though.. Fox is also promoting it's "Rich List" that starts on 11/1..

Guess NBC and Fox are gonna have a game show war...

What happened? Did it get down to the last case and she didn't switch? I'm trying to find what happened because I just missed it..

She took the deal, $321,000, with 4 cases left. They revealed the other cases and it got down to only 2(hers and another one), the other one had a million in it.

Dart Theory was in full effect on this evening's "Deal or no deal" show. This theory is so freakishly correct it scares even me. I underlined the part of the theory above so you can see what I'm talking about. The "Jets" fan woman that was just on kept saying the $1,000,000 was in her case throughout the show. The "family" told her to take the deal even though she knew the $1,000,000 was in her case. She fell in the trap and took the $186,000 deal and low and behold the $1,000,000 was in her case. The funny thing is, this is the 3rd time this exact play has occurred. Just amazing how my theory is working out, it's been off and on throughout the 2nd series but overall not bad. I still stress that NBC can save Deal or no Deal by removing the other family and friends giving the player ideas on whether to take the deal or not. That's always the cause of lame plays like this. Until they do this, DOND will die out with viewers getting bored with DOND....and a part of that is because of Dart Theory.

Ok guys.. I'm finally frustrated! :lol:

I am sick of NBC's "is this Deal's 1st millionaire trailers and hype".. This Jets fan lady could have, and obviously should have won the $1 million..

Also.. if she "really" thought she had the money.. I really think she would have played it out lol..

I honestly believe this show may NEVER see a millionaire because everyone chickens out. Sometimes they make great decisions by stopping. sometimes not.

By the way.. The 1 chick that won 3/4 of a million was still a teenager ONLY 19 YRS OLD! I know.. that's irrelevant lol..

Ok.. rant over.. off my game show soap box..

The funny thing is: the case that the "Jets" fan picked had the $1 million prize she would've won, turned out to be the same case with $1 million the next contestant knocked off...unwittingly.

And once again, so close, yet so far on the Lucky Case game for me.
