Deal or No Deal pisses me off for a number of reasons:
1) They always congratulate the contestant on a "good guess" - there are no good guesses - the only skill is knowing when to take the money and run!
2) The contestants never know when to take the money and run
3) The host always makes lame jokes and quips strange phrases
AND
4) "The bank" is as stingy as hell at the worst times.
Out of curiousity, how long has Deal or No Deal been going on in other parts of the world? I think this is the third year of it here in Australia...

What're your favs? Also, thoughts on Deal or No Deal?

Are you talking about the American or Aussie version? I think Howie Mandel is ok, not terrible. And yes you are correct, the people on their are STUPID on when they take the $$ and don't. The other night there was a woman on there that kept saying "I don't know what to do, Howie Mandel. Tell me what to do Howie Mandel". Wanted to smack her.
