To boldly go where no gameshow has gone before.

 

That may be worth watching just because the promo included the "word" shat-tastic.

I know I've used the word shat-tastic before. Usually after nachos and Taco Bell.

 

It pains me just seeing the promos, the way it pained me during the dreg stages of a bender when you're on your bed staring at Momma's Family at 4:24 a.m. and can't find the remote but can't move to look for it.

 

BYH: I've only seen it a handful of times, but this is what I've gathered. There are amounts ranging from 1 cent to $1 million. The contestant first picks a case. Then, they have to -- one at a time -- choose cases (like four to move to the next offer). Whatever amount is in the case they choose is knocked off the board. If you knock out the smaller amounts, your offer from the banker is higher. So you keep doing this until you get scared and take the offer, or get greedy, etc.

That's what I garnered.

 

Keep the hot chicks on the board longer. Get the fuglies out of there quick.

 

I haven't seen any ugly chicks on DoND.

 

1 vs. 100 is a good show, if only for one reason... it's fun to tune in, see an easy question asked and the contestant get it right... then find out how many of the 100 got it WRONG.

You'd be surprised sometimes. Yikes.

 

This isn't true. He usually offers significantly less than the average of the amounts left in play. Almost always the players should select "no deal" until late rounds. (Yes, I've been forced to watch this inane show a few times.)

 

Currently, NBC has Saget on 1 vs. 100 and John Stamos on ER.

I'll draw the line when Dave Coulier becomes a regular on Studio 60.
