Deal or no deal?

does anybody still watch this?

I get some kind of sick pleasure out of seeing people go from extremely excited to completely devastated in less than a half an hour, but that's just me, i'm sure the rest of the cor isn't that malicious.

Not anymore, but it was definitely fun for family entertainment during dinner back in the day.

I never understood it.

They just open briefcases and win money or something?

I never really got into game shows. "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" was good when Regis Philben hosted it. But the lady who does it now isn't that bad either.

Exactly. No one is that happy. Thats the kind of guy you watch and think, "he's totally going home to beat his wife tonight."

I refused to watch this show again after the first time I saw it. I don't mind Howie or hot chicks opening suitcases, but I can't stand the people they bring on. Mind you, I only saw that one episode, but I see the commercials with all the future participants acting like idiots, and it makes me think I might as well watch a show where the participants ARE idiots (e.g. Who's smarter than a 5th grader?), but I try not to waste my time with that either.

Game shows would be so much better if people had something to lose.

Something like "Who wants to be a millionaire or an amputee?" or if you spun "bankrupt" on "Wheel of Fortune", your whole family would go bankrupt.

That's the American dream right there anyway - to either hit it big purely by chance and be set for life, or to be ruined spectacularly in public for the sake of the amusement of the whole.

God bless America.

i dont see the point in a gameshow that

a) has absolutely no skill in it whatsoever
b) makes it impossible for those to play along at home

fucking boring shit.

One of my favourite game shows of all time.

I quit watching it and started watching the one where you are hooked to a lie detector and you have to answer questions that ruin your life and the lives of your family for money.
