**I'm pretty sure this hasn't been posted**

So have any of you been watching this show?  It seems like everyone is raving about it.  I think its got a pretty good format and all, but theres just way to much bs'ing going on, that it really takes away from the game.  In fact, I can't even watch the show anymore because of it.

Well?

People feel that there's some kind of system they're working. It's completely random and could really just be a 30 second show. "Do you want this big amount of money, or do you want to open the case and see if you get more money or less?"

Really, it comes down to a 50/50 shot, and then they still screw with your head. "Do you want to keep your case or trade it for the other one?" It's still a 50/50 shot.

One guy just went and picked all the girls with the biggest chests for his guesses, and that's as good a system as any.

It can be an entertaining show, but I only like the contestants who play the odds, which is all you can really do.

Nope, never heard of it. From how it sounds I probably won't like it anyway. I don't like reality tv shows.
NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil.

I love that "Press Your Luck" episode with the guy who'd figured out the system and racked up a total that at the time was record breaking. The producers were in a panic because they had no way to stop the guy, and it wasn't technically against the rules. He'd just beaten them.

It still isnt as cool as the original "Lets Make A Deal"

Where you picked between two doors. One was a new car, the other was always like, a lifetime supply of peas, or a Donkey or somthing.
