Default why is deal or no deal so goddamn terrible?

is it howie mandell? do i blame this one on the writer's strike? is this really what network tv has become?

watching this show kind of makes me want to smash my face into the coffee table in front of me. now that i think about it, it actually has an effect similar to reading monte's date posts: they rile me up, but i can't look away.

Have you talked to Bonnie lately? I made a birthday thread for her but I don't think she was around to see it.

Talkin' 'bout the black girl who was holding a wand the whole game? She walked away with $166,000, but blew a chance at walkin' out with $532,000. At one point she had an offer of $266,000, and the banker offered to double that if she simply kissed this frog they brought out. And of course, goin' with the rollin' theme of idiot contestants turnin' down great offers, she did, and proceeded to knock out the other million-dollar cases.

So I not only watched Deal or No Deal last night, I remember exactly what happened.

he actually said that the banker would "double the size of the offer", so i'm sure this was just a gag wherein the model holding the placard with the offer would flip it over revealing the amount printed twice as large on the other side. now one hopes that the contestant realized the ploy, too, because yeah.

anyway, never again.
