Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Peter Finn And I'm not saying that as one of those people who automatically hates game shows and discounts them as pointless.What makes this game show truly idiotic is that people's chances of winning are completely random. The only thought involved in participating in this show is answering the titular question: "Deal? Or no deal?"I'll explain. There are 26 suitcases, each with a different amount of money in it, ranging from 1 cent to 1 million dollars. The contestant picks one case at random. This becomes their case. He then chooses to look in some of the other suitcases to see which values aren't his. After opening some of the suitcases, he is offered a sum of money that may or may not be higher than the value in his suitcase. He can either accept it or reject it.If you want to watch a game show, watch something good, like Cash Cab, Jeopardy, or Family Feud. Don't even consider watching this one.

KELLY ANDERSON How this show got to be considered a hit is beyond me. How can anyone in the world with an IQ of higher than three watch this show and actually consider it to be entertainment? That question will haunt me as long as I live. Howie Mandel is an okay host with a few funny lines every now and then when he talks to the contestants but that is about the only somewhat bright point in this show. All that happens in this show is they choose a contestant who randomly selects numbered briefcases, then they open them, and whatever dollar value is inside gets eliminated from the board, the goal being to NOT eliminate the high values (the highest is one million dollars). That's it. No skill involved at all. After each round of random guessing, the banker calls down and offers them an amount of money to quit. That amount of money is always somewhat less than the average amount of money left between the briefcases. So there's not even any variation there. Just people picking random briefcases. Something is wrong with our society when that becomes a hit.

picrob2000 To tell the truth, I never thought the former "Bobby" (host Howie Mandell) would become a game show host, but many other actors such as Louie Anderson and Richard Karn (Family Feud) and Donny Osmond (Pyramid) have done this and made success out of it, and Mandell, in my opinion, was a good choice as host, despite the many ways he can ask that one question every viewer can think of an answer to, "Deal or No Deal?" Out of all the prime time game shows, I predict this will not become a syndicated daytime game show like others such as "Who Wants To Be a Millionaire," which changed hosts while it became syndicated, but Regis Philbin has hosted a few specials after the change, otherwise, Meredith Viera from "The View" as the host. The only person I don't like on the show is the banker because I think he can give better offers to contestants than what was shown on episodes. For example, the banker may offer around $100,000 when the contestant has his own case and four other cases, including the $1 million case and a couple of other top amounts are still on the board in play, NO DEAL. Overall, great show, even though the banker needs to get real.

weatherboi2 I noticed, at least in my area, that Deal or No Deal was not listed to be on the air. Has this show been taken off for the season? Last Friday, May 12, was the last episode I saw and it usually has been on the air 3 nights a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday). Sure hope to see it back soon......great show. Has anyone else noticed that too from where they are at? SO I missed the episode where it ended with the woman being offered I thought was $131,000. I sure would had a done DEAL on that offer, crazy not to. And Howie, quite the crazy Canadian eh? We are proud of him as he has done well, at least of late with his "cleaned up" profile, something that the family can enjoy.
