Deal or No Deal
Tuesday, December 20, 2005
I'm gonna go with no deal because this is a crap game show.
There is absolutely no skill involved, no trivia to answer, no puzzles to solve.
The premise is that you pick one briefcase out of 26 and it has a value of between $0.01 and $1,000,000 in varying increments. Queue the ever-present, token game show beauties who will reveal the value of each brief case one by one (26 beauties in all and Wheel of Fortune only needs one Vanna). It's funny watching the dumb ones try to peek in the brief case before they reveal it's value.
Then there is this banker who makes you an offer to buy your briefcase at different intervals in the game, depending on how well you are doing (ie: how many small increments you have been able to eliminate...using nothing more than sheer luck). The banker's deal is based on how much you could win and how likely it is you will not win very much (ie: if you have a lot of small values left vs not many large values).
Howie Mandel is the host and I thought he was good, but the game just doesn't make a lot of sense.
