Re: Deal or No Deal BobFromAcctg: My only thought during the few times I have seen this show is that I wonder how completely sick of saying "Deal or NO Deal" is Howie Mandell? that MUST drive him crazy by now....
It would me.
And the stupid fist thing - OMG. Cmon Howie, grow the Hello up...you are not going to get germs and die from touching someone's open palm. Shesh... Celebrities... They just stinking make me want to scream sometimes.. but enough of that...

ROFL... Every time my daughters and I watch that show, we specifically watch for when the contestants touch Howie and what his reaction is. That's almost as entertaining as the game!! One lady rubbed his head and I thought he was going to die. LOL! Think of how much Bob Barker used to get mugged on the Price is Right - Howie would have never lasted. Then there was that ickky Richard Dawson on Family Feud - remember him? Kissed all the women? Ewwwww. Bring out the Purell.
Re: Deal or No Deal pluscachange: Dumbest
Show
Ever
I guess America has reached a point where gameshows that require an actual skill to play has become asking too much.
T.V. ain't my thang, I don't really watch it, but was roped into this show recently with "oh come on, how can you say you don't like it if you don't watch it". So I watched it. Good bajibbidy dang, it's freakin' stupid on every single level.
Except the suitcase babes. If the show was just them standing there flirting and being pretty, ok, I could at least respect that. So for honesty's sake, just remove the game portion, and let us ogle the babes, and let's call it a day. More honest that way.
