Halloween is Normally My Favorite Holiday

Alright, alright. I'm back. I have emerged from seclusion to face the music. A second contestant has ever so rudely walked away with a million dollars. I will not say that she won it, or even that she earned it--it was HANDED to her. I gave her nine million-dollar cases, for Heaven's sake! A trained chipmunk could have won the million.

Some day I hope to come across an adversary who can play the game the original way and make it even remotely exciting. I tell ya, It's really tough being so intellectually superior to all those around you.

Well, you'll just have to take my word on that...

Election day is almost here, so be sure you go vote! (Resist the urge to write me in on your ballot, though--being President would really cut into my vacation time.)

What I'm saying is that after someone has made the claim that their case "100%" holds the million, they no longer have a legal right to cop out. That right is revoked by willingly and knowingly saying that the podium's case has the million. You've already made that choice not to quit.

Think of it this way: there should be no second thoughts about a couple having a child once the wife is pregnant. They have already revoked their right to choose not to have a child by willingly and knowingly procreating. (This is also a pro-life argument, but no politics here.)

This should be a logical extension of your last response, Linda...and Happy 2010!

a b, can I call you a b? Just joking andrew b. 8 )

I'm sorry, but that short, and I mean very very very short video didn't show anyone giving up. Wait a minute, I am going to watch it again. I'm back. Andrew B I have to say, as much as it hurts me to do so, YOUR RIGHT! She didn't follow through after stating she believed she had the Million. So are you saying she coped-out, and settled for a sure thing, instead of going with her true feelings and seeing it through to the end, or am I still not getting what your saying?

You know that short video didn't show how far into the game her decision was made.

What you wrote makes alot of sense, and is very true. And I am one who does practice what I preach.

Again I will say, "Happy New Year" andrew b.

A true believer wouldn't quit. This video simply sums up how Deal contestants play the game.

Another way to express this would be to find some other clip of a contestant making a similar speech, then splicing it back to back with the $1,000,000 case being opened. That's all you need to describe Deal or No Deal even to a complete idiot - this and my video is pretty much all you'll ever see.

Barely a third of each show was ever actually necessary because of all the spoilers, so you'd think NBC could find a way to at least make 20 minutes watchable. ...NOOOO!

There's scarcely a contestant who has played perfectly well according to the rules of playing. It's very simple: take above-mean offers, don't take offers with safety nets unless you really do need the money, and far more importantly, don't be two-faced - ever. You can be a model husband and father for 59 minutes, but just one second from the video and you should lose parental rights. To pass up a certain $659,000 (or whatever) is not worthy of a father with children to provide for.

Once you make that statement, it's too late for second-guessing: this is probably why it isn't a good idea to claim it in the first place. In comparison to many others, who you see here had no further need to sway the banker with these outlandish claims, since the banker had already made the last offer.

The basic rule of Deal or No Deal is to practice what you preach. If you can't practice, don't preach. If you have the gravitas to preach, to not practice could earn you a one-way ticket to a mental asylum. These contestants know what they are getting into, yet say this will be so easy, and then cry uncle when they are asked to actually do it. This behavior is cowardly, dumb, and WRONG, and should not be allowed to continue.

Tsk Tsk andrew b.

I saw nothing that was in anyway close to being alarming or damaging. All it proved was that the person was being very optimistic, a true believer. Well, what do you know, I just decribed myself "optimistic, and a true believer".

It looks like your the one having the "Deal" withdrawl symtoms, proably because of the reruns being shown at this time. Stay strong, hang in there, a lot of different shows are reruns now.

Thank you for your concern, but I am in excellent health.

I implore you to go back to the drawing board, come up with a video that says the degroative point you want to make, because this wonderful video just doesn't.

"Happy New Year" to you!

It seems that the syndicated version might go away as well. "Deal" withdrawal symptoms can be cured by simply watching this short video, exclusively made by yours truly:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNvc3kk7epk

After seeing this, you will never have to watch the show again, even in foreign countries - a similar incident happened on the UK's 1000th show.

For your good health, I implore you to watch this feature. Happy New Year.

Twas the Night before Christmas Eve:


Twas the night before Christmas Eve, and all through the house
No one was changing the TV channel, not even a mouse.
The reruns of "Deal Or No Deal" were playing as we watched if we missed anything the first time with care,
In hopes we caught all the wonders of the "DOND" show the first time and all the excitement still was there.

We were nestled all snug in our favorite chairs,
While visions of new upcoming shows danced in the air.
Linda wrapped in her Snuggie , and the rest in Santa caps,
Just settled down to watch a "DOND" show and not a winters nap.

"Now Banker! now, Howie! now, Tameka and Patricia!
On, Contestants! On, Audience! on, on Deal and No Deals!
To the top of the stairs! to the top of the Money Board wall!
Now Banker away! Make offesr all day! Dreams be filled all!"

I look everyday to see who might have posted something, and then on Friday when I checked your post took me by surprise, and the reason it did you took the time to post and talked smack. Nothing you said makes sense! I am going to try and break it down to figure it out.

1. You can't stop your "unconditional" love for "Deal Or No Deal".
2. You accidentally dropped your little portable TV down the toliet while watching "Deal Or No Deal".
3. You mixed your words up on the last sentence which made no sense while retrieving your portable TV from the toliet.

Now I have something to say:
"Deal Or No Deal" is going strong, makes people dreams come true, a great show to watch, and makes people experience many emotions, and it all depends on how you play the game.

PS: I just knew there were other "Deal Or No Deal" "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" that still checked the blog besides me. 8- )

It looks as if the syndicated version is also going to head down the toilet. It's time to stop the *unconditional* love. You can like the good parts as a whole, but never ignore everything that failed about it.

Hello Mr. Banker,

I see no one is here to greet me, but that is in it's self is not unusal since you haven't returned to chat with your "Deal Or No Deal's "BFF's" in such a long time.
I have watched every "DOND" show since I have been away from the "Banker's Blog", and as usual they were all great. I love the new show that started this week with the family reunion theme.

PS: It's great to be on this blog even if I am all alone, because I love the "Deal Or No Deal" show". It's so exciting!!!

Hi Everyone,

I am closing the doors to my "Linda Caroots Recliner Office" for a week or two, because of needed computer repair. I am so sad, 8 ( , but tomorrow it goes to the repair shop. I will be watching the "Deal Or No Deal" show everyday, but not be able to make any comments on Mr. Banker's Blog. Stop crying now, no not you, ME!!! I will reopen my "Recliner Office" as soon as my computer returns.

May the "Deal Or No Deal" Force be with you.

Welcome to the "Deal Or No Deal" Stadium Stage Field!!! 8 )

Well, here we are back at the playing field at "Deal Or No Deal" Stadium Stage. With Howie Mandel as the Umpire. Mr. Banker in the out field ready to catch the flying $ Cases to give him outs (yes that's right) because it gives him an out of sending you home with as little as possible. And, that's exactally what happened with Anthony R.

Anthony got up to bat, and hit an $18,000 offer out to left field stage. 1 strike for Anthony, 1 out for the Banker.
Another hit for Anthony of a $14,000 offer out to the out field stage. 2nd stike for Anothony, 2nd out for the Banker. Mr. Banker is smiling big 8 )

Howie making great delivery of his Mr. Banker's calls, and humor 8 )

Still up at bat Anthony hit a $ Case, Oh No!!! he hits it way out into right field stage, and Mr. Banker catches the $ Case and saved himself that great offer he made to Anthony of $28,000
Then the game started to have one foul after another 8 (

On the Score Board: Mr. Banker: 3 Stike Winner
.............................: Anthony: Winner of having fun, life changing chance, and $2,500. Good win!!!

Salutations to Everyone,

Ahhhhh, this school custodian Mr. Vinney (Vince) could have cleaned up real good with one big sweep, but I think he figured he would rather walk away with a sure thing of $45,000 dollars. With this money he can put down a good size down payment on a house, and that would really be following his heart. 8 )
By doing that hopefully will relieve his pain of not finishing the clean-up of the $ Cases.
Happy house hunting for your family Vince.
Another great show in "Deal Or No Deal" Land!!!

PS: Bury him? Really Mr. Banker, your lucky he didn't go all the way, because if he did you would have been the one getting buried. And how do we know your not sporting the same hair-do as him. Ha Ha Ha That's the advantage of you being in the shadows, we can't see (0)-(0).

Good Good Morning,

Lenny might have won enough to redo her bathroom, but every time she sits on her new throne she will always think about how she flushed away $250,000 dollars. 8 ( She just might chant "1, 2, what did I do".
I don't understand, she said she goes to gambleing places, so why didn't she push the latches to the Cases and grind some metal for a Big Win? Go figure' I am happy she at least had enough money win for a new bathroom.

"Deal Or No Deal" alway give us an exciting and interesting show.

Morninnnnning 8 )

Well now, I think Leigh was drunk on the excitement of being a "Deal Or No Deal" Contestant. Right now her Bartending job is her game, but making a new different looking shoe will be her claim to fame. Leigh has taken a huge blender and tossed in many shots of Money Cases, a bunch of hops from the $ Board draft, a lot of malts of dreams, and the icey offers the Banker gave her, an at the end ended up with a pitcher of "Barley Anything". A shot glass of $7,000. If only you would have worn a lower pair of heals, and been down where the air isn't so thin you might have thought to go all the way which would have made you a $100,000 dollar winner. Oh Ale, $7,000 dollars is better than nothing. That's winning around $233.00 a minute. Now that's what I call a TIP!!! Mr. Banker is a good tipper.

Another great Shoe in the history of "Deal Or No Dea"!!!! YAYYYYYYY!!!!!

PS: Witty, Mr. Banker, really witty Clown shoes. Ha Ha Ha Now I am just wondering, did you just make that up remark in the spur of moment, or did you just happen to look down at your feet and think of it because of the famous brand of shoes you wear "BOZO the Clown"??? Just wondering, just wondering.

Good Morning Mr. Banker,
All of your "BFF's" are still hoping
for that life changing call to be Contestants.

On the fifth day of October,
my Mr. Banker will give to me
Five days of "DOND" shows with Howie,
Four more Contestants on the stage a wishing,
Three maybe big winners for this week,
Two beautiful Models, Patricia and Tameka
And a week of wishing it were me.

Salutations to All,

Well this Biology Teacher, Ms. Miller must have really loved ths study of frogs, because she would become so thrilled at the offers being made and the look of the great Money Board at half-way through the game she would springggg-UP and leap in the air with such zest, it was exciting!!! But, then the croaking started. Ms. Miller had guts to keep on going, but maybe she should have stopped at one of the lily pads that had one of the better offers, cause you never know when to turn over a new lily pad leaf, but when you have a great board like Ms. Miller had you've got to keep on hopping. Ribbet, Ribbet, only a $3,000 win for Ms. Miller. 8 ( Let's look on the bright side for Ms. Miller, the 3,000 lights shinning on the "Deal Or No Deal" stage pond ended up being $3,000 dollars put into Ms. Miller's bank account. YAYYYYYY!!!!

PS: Mr. Banker it looks like you know how to count your $ amount Ribbets. Ha! Croak Ha! Croak Ha! Croak

Did Miss D start the month of October on the right foot by winning a lot of money? Let's hope DOND can erase the October curse that's plagued the show the past two Octobers.

Until next time

Part 2 of the 1 below, (You'll see Golileo's experiment even applies to my writings} 8 )

I totally forgot to address Ms. D being a Science teacher, and maybe she would agree with me about this.
A scientific view of (What's goes up must come down), and this did happen with the motion of Mr. Banker's pen in today's show of "Deal Or No Deal", gravity pulled the largest offer amount of $49,000 down to $29,000. Hey I wouldn't mind a mass of $29,000 dollars to fall down on me. Ha Ha Ha! But, more $'s would even be better.

Morning All,

Howie spoke of an Apple in the opening of the show, and I a was anxious to see if Ms. D would be beaten to the Core with her choices and decisions. I was also worried for Mr. Banker, because of Ms. D's knowledge of Martial Arts, because she came out swinging with good case choices. Will she still have her Self-esteem with her $ win at the end of the game? We shall see. 8 ) Hi-yah!!! (Fighting Martial Arts talk you know) a Win to be proud of, so take a honor bow for your $37,000 win.
Happy kitchen to you!!!

Hi Everyone, 8 )

It looked like everything was going along Swimmingly for Mrs. Froelich until she started using that new Math. 1 + 1 might have added up to $22,000 dollars for her this time, but if she would have held her nose and dived into the Money Pool and trusted her husband's lucky number she would have won $250,000. Oh well, it just didn't add up for her. Mr. Banker won again, this time by hanging onto a float, and knowing his math.

Coach Fuerte took some runs up and down the Money Board field, but I didn't think he was ever going to make a Pass $ amount to try for a Touchdown. He's going, he's going, Uh-Oh, he's fumbleing the cases!!! Good plays on the scoreboard field at the beginning, but you never know what case Yardline you are going to have a Down on. Well, at least that Punt got Coach Fuerte a winning $37,000 offer from the one an only #1 Coach of the "Deal Or No Deal" team Mrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Bankerrrrrrrrrrr "YAYYYYYYYY".

If you think your Halloween was bad, I found out that my Halloween Blog for a costume I wore was intercepted by JJ Abrams, and he blew up my favorite Star Trek planet with my favorite Star Trek race on it. And they killed Spock's mother.

I died a little inside.

For halloween I'm dressing as myself. No more of this 'mad vulcan hatter' stuff for me, just gonna be plain old CandleJack. Which reminds me, I'm going to need plenty of rope for all the children tempted to say my name.

But while we're still slightly clinging to the concept of Star Trek, I'd say that if you'd have to be anything other than human, you'd be a combination of Ferengi and Vulcan. Money-oriented and logical.

Well, if anyone wants me, I'll be on gaiaonline under the pseudonym Miki Ishikawa.

Best wishes,
CandleJack

Come on now, stop laughing, I know I'm the only one on here. I would rather be a Contestant on the show, but since that hasn't happened "The Banker's Blog" is the next best thing, and watching the "Deal or No Deal" show.

Stephanie is a true seeker, but she searched a little to long for that special dollar amount. She should have gone on till the very end then she would have had a $10,000 win, but a $5,000 dollar win was the way the cases crumble.

Geri had a great board, but even then you are headed into dangerous territory. This is when you start playing "Guts or No Guts". She went so far, but decided to take a sure thing. Geri surprised me not going all the way though, because of the way she had been playing. All in all it was a great game and a great $ win.

That is just the added excitement to the game. As far as the Contestants winning great amounts of money is just the luck of the Case they choose. They have the pick of the draw, then they have to watch the board, and think about the Banker's offers, and then weigh the odds. And as for the Million Dollar Mission, mostly everyone would think there is no way they couldn't walk away with a Million Dollars. WRONGGGGGGGG!!! That is wishfull thinking on their part. You can wipe those Million $ amounts off the board one right after another, and that's why you have to really think about the Banker's offers and decide how far to push your luck. I still say there has never been a bad show. It's a show that offers unknown surprises and excitement. I LOVE IT!!!!

Again I say: "Deal Or No Dea"l is "Deal Or No Deal", no other wording is needed.

Linda,

If you think DOND doesn't have a bad month in the show's history, you need to look at an event that happened two years ago which did in primetime DOND.


It was the October from hell '07. The first installment of the million dollar mission saw Alicia Whitaker, Wynetta Williams, and Neal Washington (The million dollar mission wasn't in Neal's game) sell their million dollar cases. Carmen Gant push her game too far and winning only $100. Do you want to know the worst part of that month of October two years ago? The banker sending snakes to scare Wynetta. That stunt drew a lot of heat from viewers and the audience and if I was Wynetta, I would've filed a lawsuit against the show for that stunt. I hope that syndicated DOND avoids that trap. How about you?


Until next time
Eric

Eric,

At least today Matthew made the decision to take the $23,000, and not take
a risk which paid off for him.

Mr. Banker made another funny with his remarks.

Good Morning Eric,

Oh No!!! Kevin, you should have followed your dream, and that chain letter, but at least you'll be going on that family cruise, thinking all the while about that dream you didn't follow through with. Be happy though, because $136,000 is a great win. 8 )

Cute remark about Kevin's shirt Mr. Banker. 8 ) Your just to witty.


PS: Eric, I am sorry but I have never thought "DOND" has ever had a bad month. Please, give me an example of how the last 2 months of October was been unkind to "Deal Or No Deal". I'm curious to know what I have missed. If it's a curse is it a curse of the Banker or the Contestant?

Howie,

I just watched a movie you made in 2002, "Hansel & Gretel". It was a darling movie, and you were absolutely adorable, and I love how you added that touch of the chacter "Bobby" from "Bobby's World" to the movie. Are the bunny slippers you wore in the movie the ones you wear at home? Ha Ha Ha
I have to say with all of the great actors and actresses in the movie, made it one great movie. I give it 10 thumbs UP. No I don't have 10 thumbs. 2 are mine, 2 are Laura's, 2 are Leslie's, 2 are Leanne's. hmmmm, that's only 8, oh wait 2 belong to our new puppy Dlode', his tail wagged all the way through the movie.

Mr. Banker,
Way back in February of this year I wrote something to post for when you would return, but as of yet you still haven't returned 8 ( So I have thought of using reverse psychology, and post it now to see if it will bring you back. The new "Deal Or No Deal" season is great! Don't you want to come back to your blog and take your bows?

This for you Mr. Banker:

WOW WEE WOW WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome back, Mr. Banker,
Our chatter and dreams were what finally lead you back with a new post.
Welcome back to your same Faithful Bloggers "Mr. Banker's BFF's" at last.
The names are the same nothing has changed since you haven't been around,
And our dreams have remained the same, just waiting on Casting to call our name.
Who thought that we your "BFF's"could have lead you back to your blog (We did it)

I can't wait to hear what Contestant you watched tonight. I am chalking it up to different time zones, or different TV channels as to why we are watching different Contestants.

I just watched Nichole Damonica ( I am just guessing at the spelling ). She did the right thing making the choice to go on, because of that itty bitty $6,000 offer. $23,000 is a good deal Nichole! 8 )

Dollydeb it is so wonderful to see you post again. Post as often as you can. I thought after what you said we would find a puddle of Mr. Banker in his chair with only his money clip to be found, but there he was as shadowy as ever. Ha Ha Ha

Eric, I am so glad you will be commenting on the "DOND" show.

Come one, Come all,

Linda,

Nicole took home $3,500. That's not bad considering she knocked off the big amounts early in the game. It was a good deal because her case held $1,000. A so-so start to the new season of syndicated DOND but it's only one episode so a lot can happen.


Until next time
Eric

P.S. Now that Mad Mark and Andrew have left, I'm now going to be watching and monitoring every contestant that's on the DOND stage. Sometimes blaming and sometimes praising.


Good to see you Dollydeb, What did you think about the season premiere?

Apparently, Mr. Banker has been busy since Halloween '08.
Or.....maybe someone threw a cup of water on him, ggggggg.

Yes-I now have my internet back, but sadly {{{sigh}}} my work schedule will keep me offline most of the time.

Mr. Banker-don't you worry your pretty lil' self-I'll be watching DOND!

Eric, kind Sir,

You have given me so much to think about, so I will get started at once.

So you consider yourself a critic of the "Deal Or No Deal" show, a show you claim is gone. Eric, you need to take the time to think before you write. If it is gone how are you claiming your going to critique
on what the Contestants do? Also, if the "Banker's Blog" is shut down where do you plan to post your criticism about the errors you feel the Contestants make? About what I write, all I can say it makes me happy writing about something I love, and hopful that one day I might be a Contestant on the show like so many other people, and experience that kind of excitement!!! Wouldn't you?

Remember what I said about thinking before you write? I am one of the faithful bloggers! I'm still here aren't I. I don't know where the other faithful blogger's are, but I am not a follower. I am sure they have good reasons for not being on the blog at this time. I believe they will return when the new "DOND" season begins. What do you mean, "they have gone on to bigger and better things", is there new banker's blog site? If there was I think my bloogin friends would have posted it so all would know.

On to something else you said, When you say the last "episode of DOND", you need to say "the end of "DOND" season" instead. There has yet to be a "last episode of "DOND" Eric. To claim to be such a learned man you should know this. There are commericals of the shows return, and writings about the show. So see Eric, you needn't worry about keeping me grounded.

Can't anyone say "Deal Or No Deal" without saying the word syndicated? "Deal Or No Deal" is "Deal Or No Deal", that word doesn't define the show. No matter what time the show is on your TV or channel, it's still the great show it's has always been.

As for your evaluation of Koshka Blackburn's turn at bat as a Contestant on "DOND" which you call a choke job, it all depends on how you look at it. The wants and needs of that particular person at that time is what is important, not yours. What should matter to you while watching the Contestant play is hoping they think about what is important to them while having this chance at a life changing experience. The case that they pick gives them hope of winning big time, but then when it comes down to a difficult decision they might start thinking, even though they don't want it to be true, the case that they are holding just might not be holding something better, reading the board is so very important.

It feels great not being the only one on the blog today. The new season is getting ready to start, so I think Everyone will be back when that happens.

Linda,

This is Eric, the pundit who just won't go away, asking you, Why do you always post poems about DOND even though it's gone and why on earth hasn't this blog shut down yet? It should've been shut down after the last episode of DOND but you keep writing while all the faithful bloggers have gone to bigger and better things. Explain that to me Linda. Andrew B and Mark are gone but until this blog shuts down (which it will eventually) I'm here to keep you grounded and sometimes bury the syndicated contestants when syndicated DOND comes back and when the contestant makes a error.

Until next time
Eric

P.S. Tomorrow marks the one-year anniversary of Koshka Blackburn's choke job (the straw that broke the camel's back.)

I am going to say this in an English type of way: Have a "Swimmingly day Everyone!!!" I like being different
once in awhile. But, it was hard using that saying, I don't like anything that has the word swim in it, because
I can't swim, although I am a very good wader in about a foot of water. But I love how other nationalities say things.
It's just sounds darling sometimes. 9 )

Hi Lucky Games,

Another "Deal Or No Deal" lover, Great!!! There is alot of us out there. Playing "DOND" online wouldn't do for me. I am a hands on ( the buzzer on stage ) kind of person. I like my feet firmly ( on the "DOND" stage, except in my "Reclining Chair Office") on the ground. Also, I would rather hit knuckles with Howie instead of hitting my knuckles on the computer screen. So I will continue to wait for the "REAL DEAL", the "DOND" stage, Banker, Howie, Models, and shiny Cases. YEAH!

PS: What I posted yesterday says it all !!! 8 )
WOW!!! it felt good commenting to someone that actually posted.

Greetings from Linda Caroots to Everybody,

At the beginning of the Banker's Blog it says: "TELL THE BANKER WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT HIM AND THE SHOW", I do believe it has already been said and done, but let me see what else can be said. 9 )

Let me see now, hmmmm'
It's like something you can't quite put your finger on, an unexplainable x factor about him, I am going to say it in a fancy way that will suit a man like Mr. Banker, "Mr. Mysterious Banker" has a je ne se qua about him.

About the "Deal Or No Deal" Show,
Now that's a no-brainer: Mr. Banker $'s, Howie's Zing, and the beauty of the show "DOND" Models.
Oh, and those silver cases produce the glitter of the show.

Have a great "Deal Or No Deal" day Everyone 8 )

Hey, to "Mr. B'$ "Deal Or No Deal" Family Bloggers"

I am like the new game show "Face The Ace" on NBC.

I am the "Club" that will make the "Banker" feel like he's been hit big time in the bank book if I am ever lucky enough to be a Contestant.

I am the "Diamond" in the rough that will out shine the "Banker" if I am ever lucky enough to be a Contestant.

I am the "Spade" that will dig out the case with a $ amount that will make the "Banker" want to crawl in a case and hide if I am ever lucky enough to be a Contestant.

I am the "Heart" that will win everyone's admiration for showing the "Banker" that he isn't the only Star of the show if I am ever lucky enough to be a Contestant.


PS: This is called tooting your own horn. I thought this would give me a little edge, and make me sound soooooooo interesting. But then again everything I said is true. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha

Dawn, I see where you posted on the "myNBC MessageBoards". You were right next door to the "Banker's Blog", why didn't you post on there? Don't wait for the new season of "DOND" to start posting there again, it's waiting to hear from you.

Salutations To One and All "DOND" Fans,

It's a little difficult for me to type right now, but I will try. It might take me a little longer to type what I have to tell you about, but it's about dedication. I'm proud and upset at the same time. Oh well, now I will address Andrew b.

Andrew b, don't you see how you contradicted yourself. First you say your only gone because there is nothing left to discuss. Then you turn around and say if you wish to discuss "NBC's" "Deal Or No Deal" then your sorry thats something you don't want to do. My question to you is why did you take the time to even post in one of "Mr. Banker's posting boxes? All you seen to want to discuss about "DOND" is what you think is wrong with the show. Andrew, your problem is you try to psychoanalyze the game. Wake Up Andrew!!!, you are wasteing your time doing that. It's a great, electrifying, on the edge of your seat excitiment, a game of how far you are willing to go. It boils down to how far your willing to go for that life changing amount. One is given a chance to make discisions that can affect ones life big time. Andrew, just enjoy "Deal Or No Deal", I know you do.

Now back to my problem. I have always taught my fingers to stand up for what they believe in. Well, after trying to trick them yesterday they protested while I was sleeping. They ( my fingers ) know they are not allowed to play with scissors when I am not aware, so they got a hold of a bottle of Nair and used it to teach me a lesson. And what a lesson it was!!! My Daughters said you can never hit knuckles with Howie with fingers like that if your ever lucky enough to be a Contestant on "DOND". I just laughed and said: Time heals all, but in this case "grows all. They (my fingers) are dedicated to "Deal Or No Deal", and I respect that.

Click on My Name and you'll see what they did.

I'm only gone because there is nothing left to discuss. If you wish to continue discussing, then sorry. Unless you explain why NBC's version of the show is good and it makes any sense to me, there's nothing left.

Nope, it didn't work, but first before I get into that I would like to say,

Good Morning to All in the world of "Deal Or No Deal",
and also the ruler of that world "Mr. Banker".


Well, now about Facebook. Like I said it didn't work with my fingers.
I acted like I was a little chilly this morning and so I put on some gloves.
I thought aloud that I was going to "The Banker's Blog" so I started typing,
and they ( my 10 fingers ) knew I was taking a different road on the keyboard.
So they stifened up and wouldn't type. I knew right then "I couldn't pull the wool
over their eyes". Excuse me while I have a little chuckle Ha Ha 8 )

I tried to convince them that it was a "Deal Or No Deal" site. They are just so loyal
to "The Banker's Blog", they are always saying he is the real deal of "Deal Or No Deal.
That he is the one who can make or break you. Even the picture I showed them that
would represent me on "Facebook" couldn't change their minds, and I am here to tell
you all of my digits have minds of their own.

So bigfan and Fiona join us on "The Banker's Blog". All of "Mr. Banker's "BFF's" will be
back when the new "DOND" season rolls around, even Mr. Banker will be back. Well, this
is what I tell myself when I click my heels together when I get up in the morning.

PS: Click On My Name and you can see the picture that would have been put on facebook.
I felt it showed my beautiful features. 8 )

Greetings to Everyone,
that might stop into Mr. Banker's part of the blog world, even Mr. Banker!

bigfan, I have always considered "The Banker's Blog" a "Deal Or No Deal" fan sight, and Mr. Banker is after all the head honcho, the big cheese, the big deal, the big enchilada, the big fish, the big gun, the big shot, the big wheel of the "Deal Or No Deal" show. Well, that is until a Contestant brings him down a notch or two beating him at his own game. I don't know if I can convince my 10 digits to go visit another sight ( I could wear gloves so they won't know where they are going ) Ha Ha, but I'll check it out later.

Until later I will leave Everyone with a thought about that great show "Deal Or No Deal":

Looking foward to the new season!!!

Beautiful Day Everyone,

Keeping with Mr. Banker's 9 months old last posting, Booooooooo!!!

I bet you thought I was gone. Neverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
(0) see and ? hear everthing, and Eric I see you are posting
on what you called a dead soon to be gone blog, Sir.
And now I would like to know if you don't mind, Why?

Brenda, Happy Birthday! You are so lucky!!!


PS: I had to post to calm my fingers nerves. These 10 digits just love posting to the one and only Mr. Banker!!!
He's the real "Deal Or No Deal".

Why do you and Jofus love the banker? Is it because the mean tricks he sometimes does to contestants? Well, let me tell you something, I personally don't care for the banker and niether should you. Brenda, My advice to you is go be one of the banker models (they're hot by the way) the banker has and root for him. Don't do it in the banker's blog, madam.

Until next time
Eric

Guess what??

My birthday was last weekend!

And guessed who showed up at my party (although he'll try to deny it)??

The Sexiest Man In America...The Banker!

I almost fainted!

He and I hit it off, so much so that in mid-August, I'll be spending a weekend at his waterfront mansion in Connecticut, not far from DOND's new home in the New London area.

And I have a message from him to all of you: Normally, he'd attack you for being jerks, but he really appreciates your having the guts to post your entries on his blog, so if any of you get on the show, he may actually give you a good offer.

I hope that sometime next season, whether on daytime or nighttime (hopefully, it comes back), The Sexiest Man On TV will reveal his face so you can all see that he's as handsome and as gorgeous as I've described him.

Love,
xoxoxo,
Brenda

Linda,

It's not a question of if this blog's going to be taken down, but when it's going to be taken down. Daytime DOND will soon be your favorite kind of time madam and the ghosts of the primetime DOND will be gone come September when the syndicated DOND returns for a second season.

Until next time
Eric

P.S. By the way Linda, Mad Mark and Andrew B are gone so I'm in charge of keeping you grounded.

Linda, Linda, Linda

I have one thing to say to you and that is this.

Please stop with your poems already. DOND is dead (with the exception of daytime, more on that later), the banker, Howie, and the models are no more. They've gone to better things now. Primetime DOND did itself in with misdeeds not even families would love. The daytime version of DOND has almost none of them and will be successful in syndication for sometime. Linda, by the end of this year, life after primetime DOND will seem like a good thing with the syndication DOND around.

Until next time,
Eric

Hello Mr. Banker, Casting, Mr. B's Bloggies, and the "Deal Or No Deal" Crew,
How is everyone doing today?
As you can see I hung out my sign, and I'm ready to post about my favorite things:
Mr. Banker, the "DOND" Man, Howie, the "Witty" One, Casting, the "Choosing&Deciding" Ones,
and the "Contestants, the "Making Choices" Ones.


It's my thing, to do what I want to do.
I can tell you, I love to post, but about who?
It's my thing, to post to Mr. Banker, what about you?
I can tell you, it's usually a combo of Banker and Casting too.

If we want to be a Contestant we have to try, then maybe we will.
Believe me "Mr. B's Bloggies", posting on his blog to me is a big deal.
All of you need to continue to post about "Deal Or No Deal", just as much as I do.
It just might make a difference now, who's to say, you may get a call from Casting, YAHOO!!!

So make it your thing, to post to Mr. Banker what you want, oh please do.
I can't begin to tell you being mostly alone on his "DOND" blog makes me blue 8 (
So do your thing, find you a posting box then choose who you want to post to, maybe about Howie too.
All I can tell you, is to let your imagination run away with you, now who are you going to sock it to?

Hello Everyone,

Mr. Banker ( Who is "Deal Or No Deal" ) and Howie ( Who brings it all together on stage )
I give many many Kudos!!!

This is how it is:

Watching every movement the Banker makes durning the "Deal Or No Deal" game
Making his endless offers never really showing any shame
Constantly returning to that life changing telephone calling Howie's stage dome
Telling Howie to tell the Contestant they will soon be going home
That's the Banker's goal, to end up sending home the Contestant with less $'s today
Watching in slow motion as the Contestant turns around and says

You take our breath away
Banker, you really take our breath away

Watching his shadow while waiting, hoping, and still anticipating a larger $ sum
Never forgetting the Contestants could become just another of the fated ones
Looking into Howie's eyes for a hint that the offer might rise
Watching in slow motion as the Contestant turns around and says

Banker, you take our breath away

Through the hourglass the Contestant sees their time is sliping away
The telephone in Howie's hand seamed to crashed with offer Banker called to say
To that the Contestant replied: "If only for today I am unafraid"

You "Deal Or No Deal" our breath away
You really "Deal Or No Deal" our breath away

Listening to every thing Howie has to say in this Banker's "Deal Or No Deal" game
Wondering which one of the Cases holds that top $ amount that is hot as flames
Looking at my Case wondering if it is the one that will just go up in smoke, it just may
Watching in slow motion the Audience watches as the Contestant turns to the Banker to say

You "Deal Or No Deal" our breath away
Yes Mr. Banker, you "Deal Or No Deal" our breath away


PS: We Contestant wanna-be's want to have this experience. Casting, make our phones start ringing.

Good Morning "Deal or No Deal" World!!!!!
See Q-Q, I can type the name right 8 )
It's just that I think BIG when it comes to "DOND"


I hate to do this, but just for a minute or two I am going to lower my standards, and go forward and give you a little of your own medicine. It's hard for for me to talk on the mean side, but I can't let you get away with thinking no one knows who you are.

First let's clear this up about your IQ. Am I right in understanding that your IQ went up from being .013 all the way up to -60, and maybe someday you can achieve a better score of 60+ if you work a little harder at this goal? Also, is that why they gave the Bus you drive for a living that number name to help you reach that goal? This truely makes me happy for you.

Next I take it spelling was not your best subject in school. Let's break this down in sylabols to make this easy for you OK? ok. ( Ca ) ( roots ) . Now what I am thinking ( something you don't seem to do very well ) you got confused maybe because the bus you drive is in bad condition, hence ( Car ) ( rots ). So "Caroots" is the name if you ask me again I'll tell you the same. I break myself up!!! Ha Ha ha Ha

Now for the last thing lets take the people you mentioned, OK? ok A name I swore I would never mention again so I won't I will use the real initials "M. E. D." is far from being punititent, oops I gave it away who you are, "my bad". You can't speak for these other men. You claim you hate the "Deal Or No Deal" show, but look where your at on "The Banker's Blog". Again I ask what's so hard about admitting what you enjoy? Oh wait, I just answered one part of that question, you enjoy the "Banker's Blog". M. E. D. if you can't like yourself nobody will. I think you left your humor in that "Case 27" oops I gave it away again, my bad again 8 (

I am here to tell you Linda Caroots has all the answers 8 ) I can't help it I like myself, Ha Ha Ha Ha

By the way, thank you Anonymous. Your very kind.

PS: Casting, let me show Mr. Banker that I have all the right answers. Let's make him sweat alittle bit. But for me to be .......able to take him on you have to call me to be a Contestant.

Until the next time we're jammin 8 )

Hahahaha. The blog is dead! I knew this day would come. And there are still some complete idiots who post here, all of who are for sure 60+. That Eric guy is right - you guys need to leave this place and continue on with your lives. Seriously, guys, you're all 60+, and you're acting like freaking kids. Grow up. If pundits like Mad Mark, Andrew and Eric can leave, then perhaps you should take a cue from them, Linda Carrots and Dawn Mays. It's time to move on.

Hello Linda sorry I have been gone so long. My brother had his surgery and is doing well with his feeding tube.
Monday July 5th my mom had a little stroke, she got overheated hadn't eaten or drank enough water, it was a muggy, warm day, luckily three of us were there on the porch with her when she started siezing. She spent 3 days in the hospital and got very confused, her dementia had gotten worse.
She is 88 and doing better this week, tomorrow she plans to go to Church.
So I have been busy, busy, busy and I have a 16 year old daughter that is being rebellious and pouting about having her phone taken away ...grounded for a week. boohoo

Do You Copy Mr. Banker, And "Deal or No Deal" Bloggin Buddies...8 )

All I Can Say Is: This Has Been Some Of The Hardest 48 Hours I Have Ever Spent. I Thought And Thought An
Came To Realize That The "Deal Or No Deal" Name Might Have Been Removed From The Primetine Line-Up, But
"Mr. Banker's Blog" Was Still Here, And "DOND" Has It's Daytime Version Which Is Great!!! So I Thougth: What Am I
Doing (besides typing different..which I won't do again..Ha Ha) So I Picked Up My Computer Keyboard And Hit Myself In The Head To Regain My Senses.
"Banker's Blog" Is A Wonderful And Delightful And Entertaining Habit I Just Won't Break!!!

Now I'm Looking For The Banker In The Dark Room. Oh There He Is At The Start Of His Blog. Your Not Posting Right Now, But Your On The TV Every Weekday at 7:00 PM, Keeping The Great Show "Deal Or No Deal" Very Much In Play.

Mr. Banker, I Know Your Game And What It's About. And One Day I Hope I Have The Chance To Show You How To Play Your Money Game. Is It A "Deal" or "No Deal"?

Well They Say The Sky's The Limit
And To Me That's Really True
But My Bloggin Friends You Have Seen Nothing
Just Wait 'Til I Get Through . . .
Because I'm Back, I'm Back-Really
Back Back-Really, Really Back
Come On And Say it, Back, She's Back-
Linda Caroots...That "Deal Or No Deal"
Contestant Wanna-Be
Back Back-Really, Really Back
Mr. Banker's Blog Has To Know Right Now
Just To Tell You Once Again,
Who's Back . . .Linda Caroots is

PS: Remember Mr. Banker is "Deal or No Deal", and Howie is the Spice.
.......Now that is one good recipe!!!!!

Ahhhhhhhh..8 ) That Felt So Good!!!!!!!!!!

Hello everyone,

This is Eric and I figure I ought to say something since this blog is going to be extinct soon. I'm not sure I can do this this is the end, but I'll do what I can.


You know if you think about it, this whole decline of DOND began when the show started doing the million dollar mission in Season 3. Once that happened, the quality of shows became worse and they did worse ratings. And once the bloggers that used to post here stopped posting because they stopped watching DOND, the bottom fell out and you knew it was a matter of time before things completely fell apart for the show.


So know you know.


I want to thank the banker's blog for giving me this opportunity to post my comments (though sometimes harsh about the show) and all the bloggers who stuck with the show through the good times and the bad.


Despite all those long commericals, Brooks Leach, nillion-dollar missions, the October from **** '07, and all that stuff that brought down DOND the last two seasons, it's been fun doing this, It's going to be weird not writing thoughts about the banker and the show.


I don't think I needed to be insane to keep watching the show, but it probably helped.


I know this sounds crazy, but I think I'm going to give syndicated DOND a chance. If the primetime DOND was thinking that it would recover from the Neisler-Atherton debacle and that the million-dollar mission wouldn't destroy the show, the least primetime DOND could is give moments that would make viwers turn the channel.

Until nex-aw dang it, That's it
Eric

P.S. Let's hope there is life after Deal for the models.

will sad to say but i think the banker is right at the stuff he dose

Posted by:desiree | July 16, 2009, 07:59 PM

 

This is a Good Morning and Good-bye Everyone,

It didn't take a computer keyboard to hit me in the head to know this blog is probably gone for good. All it took was the "NBC" website to remove the words"Deal or No Deal" from the list of shows. The only reason I am posting this is (as people say) to bring some closure for me. I only say some because "Deal Or No Deal" is still very much alive on daytime. I love the anticipation of whats going to happen next, the commericals that make you wonder if the Contestant is going to win big, or a big blunder, Howie and Mr. Banker's remarks on the "DOND" stage are so funny, the Models are so lovely, or the Contestant wanna-be's all lined up on the stage are so witty. But I am going to miss my Bloggin Friends "Mr. Banker's "BFF's". 8 (

I have been trying since May 2006 to become a Contestant, and I gave it my best shot it just didn't happen, but I did win some computer friends. This was my first blog and it will be my last. I did come up with a little cheer yesterday, and I hate to see it go to waste. So here it is:
"From the Cheering Squad of:Linda Caroots"

"Deal or No Deal" is the #1 Game!
Can any other make that claim?
"Deal or No Deal" Bloggers say NO!
So Go Banker, Go Howie Go! Go! Go!
We say:Yeaaaaaa, We say:Yeaaaaaa
Call us to be Contestants any day!!!

Well everyone it is time for me to close up shop and let down my footrest to my Reclining Office.
If "Mr. Banker" ever post life into his blog again I will return.
It's been a blast while it lasted. Everytime you are watching "Deal Or No Deal" you can be sure I am watching it too.

One more time for old time sake:

Eric, Eric, Eric, oh and, Richard, Richard, Rich,

For one thing I am not a Wino, but it sure sounds like you and Richard are Harpies though. Why don't you just stop criticizing me for trying. It is said: "If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again", and I believe in that. also Sir, what ever Dawn Mays, Dollydeb, Jan, LB, etc. etc. does or doesn't do is their own personal bussiness. I think for myself. I don't and never have been a follower. Oh, and I don't deal out garbage. The only thing I am with "Wonderful Wino" is Wonerful so my daughters tell me. We're always laughing. According to them I am a riot!!! That is what "Deal Or No Deal" is to me "A intense happy riot". Have you forgotten LB made it. Another thing, the only one that would be choking is Mr. Banker on his offers if I ever made it to being a Contestant. I don't choke on words, I'm never at a loss for words.

Richard, you say "DOND" is dead, it was hit by a Million Dollar Mission, Does that mean the Bankers going broke? Ha Ha Ha But yet you said "I'm gonna get that Mission", question: How are you going to get something you claim is not there? I can't say I like your litte diddy of a song, but I did like that show.

You two are the ones Over-the-top with emotions. Why are you worried about who is on "The Banker's Blog"? Why do you even bother coming and checking it out? Come on guys don't down me for trying, I have been trying since May 2006, I'm not bothering you. Stop trying to hurt my feelings.

Oh here's a BIG question for both of you: Don't you know the daytime "Deal Or No Deal" is on every day? So that goes to show you two "DOND" isn't dead, but very much alive. Primetime "DOND" could make special showings. I think that Mr. Banker and his bloggers will return when the new season of "Deal Or No Deal" begins.

About the Wino thing, and I know the way it was meant ( someone that winn's) I don't drink, but those Margaritas drinks at Red Lobster are the best lemonade drinks ever!!!! Ha Ha Ha

And just remember this for the future:

No one is going to break my stride
No one is going to slow me down, oh no
I'm going to keep on trying
I'm a Contestant wanna be trying to break ground, oh yes
I've been trying since May 2006,
And I'm going to keep on trying
A Contestant I want to be-e

Linda, Linda, Linda,

Please give up on being a contestant on DOND already. All the bloggers and the models and Howie have gone on to better things and yet you're still posting. Andrew B, myself and Mad Mark for the past year have exposed all of the flaws that not only DOND has but you, Dawn Mays, Dollydeb, Jan, LB, the list goes on madam. You ladies always defend the show when a contestant has a choke job or sells the million dollar case. Well let me tell you something Linda, If Andrew B and Mark were still posting, they would've buried all you so-called supporters for sticking with the show that despite all the good moments the show gave us like Michelle Falco, the two million-dollar winners, the show gave us a lot of garbage like Brooks Leach, the October from %$#^ '07, Ritchie Dell's choke job, false adevertisements, million-dollar mission, and do you know what the worst part of DOND was that really did in the show? Do you want to hear it?


Over-the-top with their emotions contestants who forgot they were here to win a lot of money, not turn their experience into a rival network's game show where you come on down, you're the next contestant on ..... and then you act like a fool as you get on stage. LC, by the time you read my comments, you'll finally understand what Mad Mark, Andrew B, and myself have been saying for almost a year.


Until next time
Eric

Greetings Everyone,
I am going on my 4th year of trying to become a
"Deal Or No Deal" Contestant. I'll keep trying till
my 2 typing fingers fall off. I wonder if I typed
"Deal or No Deal" this way it would make magic


Thank Goodness I'm A "Deal or No Deal" Girl

Well, here on the "Banker's Blog" it's been kinda laid back
Ain't much being posted and this "DOND" girl says whats fact
It's early in the afternoon, early in the evening I'll check back
Thank Goodness I'm A "Deal or No Deal" Girl

Well a simple little post about "Deal Or No Deal" does me no harm
I've loved this game for so long cause of Mr. Banker's and Howie's charm
I have tried since May 2006 to become a Contestant with no success, darn
Thank Goodness I'm A "Deal or No Deal" Girl

When I go to the "Banker's Blog" and see no new post I feel low
I pull out my keyboard and start typing about "DOND" you know
The primetime "DOND" is asleep for awhile, daytime version is on the go
Thank Goodness I'm A "Deal or No Deal" Girl

I could play the "Deal Or No Deal" game all day if I could
But there is things that have to be done so that wouldn't be good
So if I need I tape it when it's on TV, and do what I should
Thank Goodness I'm A "Deal or No Deal" Girl

Well, I have got to find away to get Casting to call, while my fingers are nimble
When the sun comes up I type beginnings and ends then I think up a good middle
Then maybe sometimes times it just ends up like a funny, funny riddle
Thank Goodness I'm A "Deal or No Deal" Girl

Well I wouldn't trade watching my favorite show "DOND" for diamonds or jewels
I never have been one of them money hungry people, I am just kidding I'm no fool
$1,000,000.00 or $500,000.00 can do and help alot, Oh My! being a Contestant would be so COOL
Thank Goodness I'm A "Deal or No Deal" Girl

Yeah, this "Deal or No Deal" Girl would love being a Contestant to try and win that money cuisine
A lot of people ( like my daughters Laura, Leslie, and Leanne ) would think that would be mighty keen
Mr. Banker, Producers, Casting, Howie, Models, and "DOND" crew let me tell you exactly what I mean
I am forever a "Deal or No Deal" Girl

PS: You can't say I don't try.

Well,well,well,looky here it's just me, myself, and I once again. But then again it's not about me, it's about "Deal Or No Deal", the Banker, Howie, and the Models. As long as I can post about a great show like "DOND", and the people that are the show I'm happy. It would be nice to talk about it with other Bloggers, but hey this will all change when the new season is here. The blog will breath again. 8 ) The daytime version is Monday night, and I love new excitement when it comes to "Deal Or No Deal". Howie and Mr. Banker are a riot!!! Who ever reads this have a great day.

Hello Mr. Banker, and his Bloggie,

Hi Dawn! Why don't you chat on here anymore. FaceBook isn't "Deal Or No Deal". It seems everyone that said they are crazy about "DOND" no longer post here anymore, well, rarely that is. I guess it will come back to life in the fall when "DOND" is all new and exciting. At least I hope so.
Have a good day everyone 8 )

Ever posted to a Banker all day & night wanting a reply but Banker & Bloggers are gone
Continuing to smile I leave it to my fingers to ask and wonder why in rhythm, poem or song.

Hello Mr. Banker, and Bloggin Friends,

I have this to say:


I want Big Bucks and I can not lie
And you other bloggers can't deny
That when Mr. Banker's shadow appears
His money won't go to waste it's clear
Winning will be written all over the Contestants face
You can't wait to see who gets closer to being the ace
Mr. Banker always wants to appear nonchalant and tough
But Bankers wondering if this is the Contestant with the right stuff
He's fearing soon his $'s will be disapperaing is making him weary
Mr. Banker sees the Contestant is hooked on winning and it's scary
Oh, Mr. Banker I want to get with you and play your game
And take your picture when I beat you while your feeling the pain
My Supporters admire you, but their cheering would be all for me
Gosh, those Millions of dollars you have got makes me go crazy
Ooh, just thinking of ever having the chance of winnig some chills my skin
You say you want a qualified adversary because your so intellectually superior
Well call me go on call me because you haven't met your match till you've met me 8 )

Morning Mr. Banker,

Just wondering,

Banker, Banker, oh Banker Man, when are you coming back?
Your Bloggers are missing you, our posts feel the same way too
I tried so hard to be true, like I promised I would do
But lately your "Bloggin "BFF's" haven't been coming around, cause your wearing their dreaming down
Hey Banker, Banker, oh Banker Man, when are you coming back?
I post and post waiting for some reply, about three times a day
Now my mind is just dreaming of what you Mr. Banker might post and say
But this loneliness that I have within keeps reaching out to my bloggin friends
I want to say, I'm not getting the info on "DOND's" primetime and daytime viewing I want to know,
Please don't hold out very much longer, your concerned "Bloggin "BFF's" really want to know
We're trying hard to be true, Mr. Banker, your posting tidbits makes us really appreciate you
Need you to post a new post, we need you to post a new post
Come on now and give us a new post
Banker, Banker, oh Banker Man, when are you coming back?

Oh Mr. Banker... See There?
You're not the only one who can get too busy to write.

My brother gave us a scare last week, he is still in the hospital. He had a feeding tube put in last Friday, he can no longer swallow.

He has Parkinson's Decease and Shy-Drager's Syndrome a.k.a.(multiple system atrophy) and Strider's. We don't have a family history of Parkinson's and the only other way to develop it is through chemical exposure.

The V.A. and Military deny that exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam could be the cause and won't pay for his medications. The life expectancy for Shy-Dragers is 7 to 10 years from first onset of syptoms he has been treated by V.A. for heart problems, which he does not have problems with his heart, just breathing, swallowing, moving, swelling, falling, talking, blood pressure dropping when he stands, and trouble regulating his temperature. He is 59 years old.

Hello Mr. Banker, and Bloggin Friends,

Listen Up My Fellow Contestant "DOND" Wanna Be's, (alias) "Mr. Banker's BFF's",
Please, If we are lucky enough to be called as Contestants think about this.
When Mr. Banker does his thing making offers which you don't like just Say:

Say: Tap the phone Howie and see if there is a bad connection, cause the Banker can't be that stingy.
Say: Your a bad one Mr. Stingy, I mean Banker. "No Deal"!!!
Say: Your one step away from saying the right offer Banker. "No Deal"!!!
Say: huh!!! I have that much in my piggy bank Banker. "No Deal"!!!
Say: Can I pick the best out of 3 offers Banker?
Say: Get outta here. "No Deal"!!!
Say: Your joking, Right? "No Deal"!!!
Say: Forget you, "No Deal" Howie!!!
Say: Are you trying to be a comic Banker? With a offer like that it seems like it. "No Deal"!!!


PS: You get the idea.

Eric,

Eric, you say this blog is dead, but yet your here, Why?
Yes I applied to "Deal Or No Deal".
Why are you worried about what I post? According to you no one is here.
Evidently you log in to know what is posted.
If this is your last visit to the "Banker's Blog", why did you put a few questions to me?
You probably check it everyday, don't you? Go on and admit it, remember no ones here. 8 )
Everything I post is about "Deal Or No Deal" weather it be $1,000,000.00 or $500,000.00.
What I have posted shows no matter what time your viewing "DOND" it's the same great game.
The other Bloggers are out there somewhere, glad to see you post 8 )

Primetime, Daytime, it's always "Deal Or No Deal" time.

Linda,

Give up on your poems already. The bloggers are long gone now and you know why? Primetime DOND is outta here. Have you applied for the syndicated version of DOND? Maybe you should write a poem about the banker and you going for a half-million dollars?


Until next time

Where Oh Where Can They Be
Because they sure aren't here for Mr. B!!!!!

Linda Caroots has lost her Bloggin Friends
And can't tell where to find them
Leave them alone,
And they'll come to their bloggin home
Holding their Computer Keyboards behind them

Linda Caroots fell fast asleep
And dreamt she heard them typing
But when she awoke,
She found it a joke
For they were all still hiding

Then up she took her hand to type
Determined for to find them
She found nothing of them indeed,
And it made Linda Caroots heart bleed
For they'd left all their keyboards behind them!

It happened one day, as Linda Caroots did stray
Into a similar blog near by
There at "Nick Blog"she espied
Their had been no one there either
Linda Caroots hung around there all day

Linda Caroots heaved a sigh and wiped her eye
And to "Mr. Banker's blog" she raced;
And tried to post what she could,
As a faithful Mr. Banker blogger should
That's what each of "Mr. Banker's "BFF's" should do

Hello Mr. Banker, and "Mr. B's "BFF's",

Just a thought......


Casting, Casting, get into it.
Start that dialing. Come on now.
Start that dialing. Come on now
Casting get my phone a ringing here. Yeah.

Let your fingers lose control, let the phone numbers fly.
Don't move too fast, so to get the numbers right, so take it slow.
Don't wait get started, just jump into it, I don't want this dream in my head to be a mirage.
You'll here a one ringy ding, two ringy ding, then my voice will join on to it, "Hello".
Get ready, set, go, I'm by my phone waiting, now do it, do it, just do it.
You'll want me to bring my daughters to help me through it.
Ring after ring, that sound I long to hear will be so sweet.
Waiting and waiting for fhat question to be a Contestant will be the solution.
To hear Mr. Banker's offers will be the hit, but they won't cause me any delusions.
The feeling to "Deal" will be irresistible, but taking the time to think will keep me winning!

Casting, Casting, get into it.
Start that dialing. Come on now.
Start that dialing. Come on now.
Casting get my phone a ringing here. Yeah!

Hurry!!! I want on that "DOND" show as a Contestant to make a deal.
I bet on the stage, I'll bring the Banker to a skreeting halt.
I'll hit that "Deal or No Deal"stage with a bang, I'll frazzle Mr. Banker's mind in dealing time,
Hoping oneday my dream will become real, Casting just start punching that phone pad.
Howie's voice is in my head with the phrase, "Deal" or "No Deal" question.
Get busy dialing, calling and making those calls, I want the sound of ringing in my ears.
You can't begin to imagine the dreams my head, I want to make that "DOND" Waterford, Connecticut trip.
Come on now Casting, do your thing, there's a dream of being a Contestant out there I want to make mine.

Hi Mr. Banker, and Bloggin Triends,

The sun shines bright over my old Ohio home 8 )
How about where you are?
Mr. Banker, when I'm sitting outside everything I see reminds me of You and "Deal Or No Deal". There is a dark piece of bark shaped like a head peeking through part of the tree that looks like your shadow. Then as I watch the beautiful birds flying around they are chirping the "DOND" music. The sun is bright like Howie's face. The beautiful flowers look like the Models. And our grass looks like a carpet of money, lets say it looks like a Million Dollars! So I guess you could say it's like a "Deal Or No Deal" day!!!

Hello Mr. Banker, and Casting,

We your "Bloggin "BFF's" want to see the city of Waterford, Connecticut
They told us from Culver City, CA. you are parting
"Deal Or No Deal" will now shine under Waterford, Connecticut lights
And that from there the "Deal Or No Deal" show will be brought to you and me.

We'll be waiting for an invitation to see the Waterford, Connecticut lights
How could we not help hoping for a call from Casting to be a Contestant on "DOND"
Just thinking about being a "DOND" Contestant, there I go again starting to wish.
Good-bye to Culver City, CA., golden "Deal Or No Deal" show's will be missed
Now "Deal Or No Deal" say hi to Waterford, Connecticut this is now where you'll be.

I can't wait to watch the start of the new season of "DOND" shows to appear,
And watch the thrill, anticipation, and excitement of the Contestants once more.
But until then I will watch the reruns, and visit the "The Banker's Blogg" in shifts,
And by doing this I will be able to await the new season of "DOND" once more.
While in my dreams I will be hoping for Casting to call and make "DOND" a part of me


PS: I don't care where the wonderful "Deal Or No Deal" show comes from Culver City, Ca. or Waterford, Connecticut, I just want to be a Contestant. I have been trying since May 2006, and I'm still hoping.

Now the rest of you "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" (I am holding off on the "BFF's" part) stop hiding behind your posting box and post to the Banker! He's around and will be back once the big "Deal Or No Deal" move is finished. Well, that's what I wish to believe. Remember we are supposed to be "Mr. Banker's" and "Deal Or No Deal" faithful bloggers.

Have a great day everyone. Is that a "Deal" or "No Deal"? 8 )

Good Morning Mr. Banker, and his "Bloggin "BFF's",


I wake up in the morning light
My thoughts are running through my mind
Is "DOND" Casting going to call and make my day bright
Oh Daughters dear someday we might be the fortunate ones

The phone rings in the middle of the night
My Daughters yell "It's "DOND" Casting calling, Right?
Oh Daughters dear you know "DOND" show is number one
All I really want is to have some fun when my winning is done

We want to be the ones that finally get the chance to walk in the sun
That's all we really want just to have some fun playing the game that's #1
Me beating Mr. Banker out of his money, a lot of $'s will be won by this #1 !
Make that life changing call, I have tried to be a Contestant since May 2006 to have some fun.

Big news!

If you're in or near New England, there will be contestant tryouts for "Deal Or No Deal" this Saturday, June 20, from 10 A.M. to 4 P.M. in Boston at the Seaport Hotel.

With the daytime version (and presumably the nighttime version as well when it returns) moving to Connecticut, this is the chance for "DOND" fans in the Northeast to try out.

The show's new home is Sonalystys Studio in Waterford, just off I-95 and halfway between Boston and New York (I've passed it several times while driving on I-95 between New York and Boston; you can see one of their buildings from the highway). It's also about five miles from The Banker's waterfront mansion.

Go to http://www.bostoncasting.com and http://endemol.com---live.com/casting for details.

While most who get on the show will lose big, those who blog on this site that get on the show will win big because the Banker respects people who have the courage to respond to his blog.

In other words, some of the regulars here, if they get on the show, will win $1,000,000 (prime-time) or $500,000 (daytime).

I haven't really been able to do any posting on the PC I was using, but there's some DonD contestant-related news over the last couple days.

If anyone remembers Jennifer Masche, the sexto-mom from an episode of Deal, she was featured on last night's episode of "Raising Sextuplets" at 10/9c. I just stumbled across it in the TV schedule for the day and of course recognized the name!

It was very fun to watch Jennifer moving along with being a mom to six babies at once and the progress they've made. They're currently 16 months old and all of them are downright ADORABLE!!

There was no mention of the show in the hour, but just catching up with Jennifer a bit was a great experience, and watching the young kids play and grow up...and yes, cry a lot...was an easy highlight.

You should have seen how big she was when she was carrying the sextuplets. She was practially double her old weight!

Hello Mr. Banker, Casting, and All My Bloggin Friends,


There's a Banker,
If you watch the "Deal or No Deal" show,
You don't have to be afraid if you become a Contestant,
There's an answer to Mr. Banker's offers if you just take time to think,
And the winnings that you know that could come your way.

And then a offer comes along,
With an amount that could help you carry on,
Then you cast your fears aside and you know you can survive,
So when your asked that life changing question by Howie, "Deal" or "No Deal",
Think of all the offer could do for you and be strong,
And you'll finally see the truth that Mr. Banker is afraid of you.

It's been a long time that we've been waiting for Casting to call,
Waiting to face Mr. Banker on that "DOND" stage all alone,
Wanting Casting to let there fingers do the walking on the phone keys
To reach out in conversation to extend an invitation to be a Contestant to you,
You can hold onto hope, if you just keep the dream alive within yourself,
And then the thinking it's never going to happen you feel will disappear.

I know,
The dream of becoming a Contestant on "DOND" oneday,
It's a dream that seems so hard to fathom
But don't let anyone take your dream away,
Hold on to your dream there's always a chance your day will come,
In time you just might have your "DOND" day, and feel

That Mr. Banker awaits for you...
Yes, that Mr. Banker awaits for you...

PS: I have come up with the "4 T's" ( Take Time To Think ) Ha Ha Ha 8 )

A Good Brunch Time of a Morning Mr. Banker,


We've been without with you for so long
Inside our minds we've imagined a new post
A thousand times we have thought you forgot
That you have left us hanging around on your blog
We have often wondered if you forgot where you left us
Hello!
Is it your Bloggers your looking for?
Because we're wondering where you are
And we're wondering what you have been doing
Are you worrying about the "DOND" new season?
Or are you wondering who will win some of your Million $'s next?
Tell us you won't be short of money if we are ever a Contestant.
We haven't got a clue as to what you have been up to lately.
But let us start by saying we miss your posts Mr. Banker 8 (

We long to see you light up your blog
And tell us about "Deal or No Deal's" new move
We want to hear it straight from the horse's mouth
Sometimes we feel our post might no longer be heard
Hello!

Miss you "Deal Or No Deal", even though there are the reruns, new excitement is always best. Hurry back. Oh I miss your post too, Mr. Banker, you hurry back also.

And as for "Mr. Banker's Bloggin "BFF's", I just might have to change that to "WBFF's" (Was) or "MBFF's) (Maybe). Surely, you all haven't fallen for that "Out of sight out mind". What's happened to "Faithfull "Deal Or No Deal" Bloggers" talking about the show and Mr. Banker? Am I the only one left? Please say it's not so!!! Hey it's up to you all, but I love and want to be a Contestant on "DOND" oneday. Don't you?
Like I have said:

No one is going to break my stride
No one is going to slow me down, oh no
I'm going to keep on trying
I'm a Contestant wanna be trying to break ground, oh yes
I've been trying since May 2006,
And I'm going to keep on trying

Good Morning Mr. Banker,

Matt L. made a valid point. Why can't you have the same Money Board on the daytime "Deal Or No Deal" show as you have on the primetime "Deal Or No Deal" show"? There is plenty of time since you don't have the Supporters.

Really, because I like the primetime show much more than the daytime. I hope they change the top prize to $1 million for the fall season of the daytime show, because that would make it so more exciting. I'm tired of the banker offering crummy offers (one game, the highest offer was $33,000 and the offer should have been at least $50,000 with $200 and $100,000 on the board)

Everytime you post a new post you are spreading fertilizer.
Then if you mention any of us by name you give off extra sunshine.
While all of that is good, we need to be watered to make us grow.
So tell Casting to fill their watering bucket with our phone numbers
And give our roots nourishment to grow into "DOND" Contestants!!!

You know it's sad, but only for a short while,


When the lights go down in the Culver City, CA.
and the "DOND" show moves away,
Then I want to be there in Waterford, Connecticut
To play "Deal Or No Deal" on that cities stage
Mr. Banker don't worry you won't be lonely
Your "Deal Or No Deal" Bloggin "BFF's" will follow you
Now I want to get back, to watching reruns of "DOND"
To try and not cry like a rainy day,
It's going to be sad waiting for the new "DOND" season to begin,
It's going to be hard not seeing Mr. Banker, Howie, and the Model's
But as they say "All Good Things Comes To Those That Wait"

Hello Everyone,

There is a show starting in Waterford, Connecticut
A wonderful show starting in Waterford, Connecticut
An exciting show, that's never seen Waterford, Connecticut's sun
It's a game of knowing when to deal that will have it's first East Coast run
The name of the game is "Deal Or No Deal" play it right and $'s you'll reap
And all us wanna-be Contestants for the "DOND" show are gleaming
Excitement is growing with the anticipation of the winnings that can't be beat
While were waiting for that life changing call we'll just keep on dreaming

I'm not shy about posting that list anywhere and to anyone who needs to know about it. Dawn, and for that matter practically anyone else on this blog, continues to ignore the list and whine about why they would cancel this show, when the list is the obvious answer!

Note that while I still think Thomas' family were complete idiots, I'm using this only as an example of what Deal or No Deal has turned into. Whether you agree or disagree with the analysis, it still shows exactly why it was the series finale.

HI Judy, Linda, Jan, Dawn, and all the rest of the bloggers:

Judy-sorry for the loss of your friend. That was so sudden.

I also liked the kitten video.

Linda-keep up the faith.
Jan-keep us dancin'.

Hmmmmm, wonder who the new blogger is.

Again, with the heavy workload of this class, I'm sure I will be on hiatus for a couple weeks. At least it's shorter than Mr. Banker's disappearance.

Bloggers-keep up the faith!

Sunday became a Bumday...

My daughter had a friend over to stay the night and at around 11:30 she got a call from home that her father was rushed to the hospital, she was picked up and taken to see him. He died a few hours later, early Monday morning.
So So So Sad. She's 15 and her father probably in late 40's early 50's.

On a brighter note the kittens just went to a new home, all three stayed together.

Oh poor poor Mr Banker, that was a nasty landing you made.

That's it you must have amnesia and you don't remember Deal or No Deal, Howie, 26 Beautiful Models, and the Money and the blogger's here patiently for a response from you.

Well... SNAP OUT OF IT!

Hello Mr. Banker, and all of "Mr. Banker's "BFF's",

I want to apologize to you Mr. Banker for telling about you disguising the plane you were flying in to protect your identity while you are moving the "Deal Or No Deal" show from Culver City, CA. to Waterford, Connecticut. Because now I have learned about the new way you have chosen to travel to try and protect your anonymity. This is just to dangerous!!! I am not hesitating telling on you so you will find another way of traveling like taking a train or bus. The deguise your using will surely work though, because I couldn't tell what you really look like still.

If you want to see what I am talking about my Bloggin Friends.
Just ( click on my Name ) you won't believe your eyes!!!

A wish that could come true, Mr. Banker,
One never knows.

As time goes by, and your blog continues to stay strong,
There's still that chance each of your "Bloggin "BFF's"
Just might take the "Deal Or No Deal" stage by storm,
Be foreworned, we plan on winning big, there are no if's
We are still holding on to the wish of becoming a Contestant
Oneday one or all of us will win alot of $'s on "DOND", this is no myth
Hoping for Castings calls, in our heads we're planning and dreaming
Of making a "Deal" or "No Deal" with the one and only you "Mr. Banker".

Since the end of May is upon us I would like to say again:

Happy anniversary to Linda Caroots (that's me),
It's been 3 years of trying to get chosen for "DOND".
Since May 2006 each year has been full of joy and fun
A Contestant wanna be, still hoping to become one
Me being a Contestant for an hour show run,
Would mean my good times have just begun.

Oh Mr Banker Your Bella is hysterical, thanks for sharing that Linda.

Mr Banker Bella needs company, I have 3 foster kittens that are about 8 weeks old, Mr Shadow, and Ms Silhouette look like you and Mr Tigs is a black and gray tiger. I think Mr Shadow is more black with black strips than Ms Silhouette she is starting to get some white hairs.

I have a video of them playing, I'll post it soon for you to view.

Long time ago I said that Mad Mark was a waste of anyones time and I left this post, now I hope you guys know his true evil self. I feel bad when someone is such a bad seed and he says we are???? Ha...right! Normal good people don't call people such horrible names.

zzzzzzzzz Mad Mark puts me to sleep with total boredom.

zzzzzzz also I think the banker is sleeping permanently too, course he probably got sick of Mad Mark's ramblings too.

So DOND I'm sorry some people want to ruin your sight with such evil and remember no matter what MM says you have given many people joy and hope and we hope it continues.

I still wait in MN wanting to polka for you...

Keep your happy feet going.

You should tell the managers of your blog to let spam come through your blog. That way it would make the blog more busy like and I wouldn't feel like I am the only one at times.

I know your busy with all the moving with the "Deal Or No Deal" production and all, but please make time for the one that is so close to you.

Eric, the syndicated version is just as bad as the primetime one, only in a smaller package. Although its ratings have been pretty strong (it got renewed for a second season as a result), it's still the same old repetitve rubbish. DoND has become repetitive, stale, boring, and irrelevant. I'd give up watching the show altogether, if I were you. I have. Even the UK version, which I really liked at one point, is boring now. I'm ready to move on, and I hope some of you are ready to do so as well.

I've found solace in the form of The Amazing Race, which is, by far, a much better program. Plus, it's won numerous Emmys because it's just that good. It gives you a chance to see the world, and watch 11 teams of 2 embark on the journey of a lifetime wiht the hopes of winning $1 million. It really is a very good show. DoND is a steaming pile of crap, and the sooner you lot realize that, the better. Never in my life have I seen such a sorry excuse for a game show. There are so many things wrong with it, it would literally take me an eternity to name them all.

So, in short, down with the Deal, and up with the Race. It's a much better show by far. I highly reccommend it. Try watching it when it comes back in the fall. You'll thank me later.

-MM.

Dawn Mays,

Unbelievable! I thought you were done with the banker's blog after the banker ignored our posts. Dawn Mays, Andrew and Mad Mark have a point. Primetime DOND ended not with a bang but with a whimper. There was no thank you for watching DOND on NBC by Howie. Dawn Mays, I know this is very difficult for you now that primetime DOND is outta here but for all the good moments primetime DOND gave us in its four years, it also gave us a lot of crap like million-dollar mission, October from **** '07, Brooks Leach, the list of misdeeds goes on my dear. Dawn Mays, Linda Caroots, Dollydeb. Why don't you give the syndicated, daytime version DOND a chance? Trust me ladies, by year's end, life after primetime DOND will seem like a pretty good thing.

Until next time
Eric

Hi Mr. Non-posting Banker!

MM-the only thing I can say is that your mother must be so proud of you-she has raised such a polite little boy. I bet she would just bust her buttons if she read all your wonderful prose.

Mad Mark is a variation of my real name, but of course, you fail to understand that, just like everything else. You're all hopeless human beings (save for Andrew; him and I are the only ones here with brains), and that's that.

So, you may be wondering, is it a good idea to mess with the fragile minds of game show fans? I'm going to go ahead and say yes, because your reactions to whatever I say make me laugh all the time.

I'd now like to personally thank you all for participating in one of the most successful experiments I've ever conducted. I set out to find out what would happen if I messed with the minds of crazed game show fans, and this was the result. The icing on the cake is that this blog is unmoderated, for the most part, and that was good because I never got banned. The experiment was a huge success, and I thank you all for participating over the past few years.

Test No. 09374 - Messing with Crazed Game Show Fans
Result: Success / Epic Win

You were nicer when you called yourself Case 27. If you hate this blog so much, why do you visit it? My goodness, you have outright threatened, and cursed us, which I truely don't understand. It's the wonder they let you post on here. We have tried to over look your nasty talk and ways. What is wrong with you? We are on here to show how much we enjoy the "Deal Or No Deal" show. Why can't you just talk about the offers, what you think the Contestants could have done better, etc. As for that "BUZZ" thing you posted for us to read says nothing. In fact here is a comment that was made on it. "No official word has been made" these are the significant key words. What a promo!!! for the "Deal Or No Deal" show. Makes you keep wanting more and more and more of the show, doesn't it now? Think you "BUZZ" thing what ever".
Lighten up a little. Let us enjoy talking to you. Don't try to live up to some made up name.

This will be the last time I address you Mark as long as you try and act hateful. It's not worth my time and trouble. I enjoy this blog with or without you. Have a good day.

Okay, play time is over now, Judy.

Andrew is exactly right, as per usual.

I am baffled at how someone of such an advanced age - I'm guessing 55+, based on your recent picture - can act like such a f**king moron. Seriously. I've not seen such a waste of a person in all my life. You're childish, completely in denial, full of false hope, and are just plain stupid overall. In other words, you have all the qualities that would make someone want to hate them. If I were you, I'd shut my mouth, because this is just getting stupid. You're more than just an ass pimple. You are a hemorrhoid on the ass of society. People like you make me sick. So do us all a favor and shut your damned mouth already, if you know what's good for you.

...and the countdown to the end of this website and blog continues.

Really, Judy? He managed to predict the show's cancellation years in advance...while you are still predicting the next episode. I'd reconsider who you choose to insult...

Judy, you're puny, much like an elf.
Why don't you go f**k yourself?

I tire of this. When this shut the DoND website down, you people will have nowhere else to turn. And given the show is now officially cancelled, the site will shortly be discontinued. Amazing how nothing here was ever moderated. If that were the case, I'd have been banned a long time ago.

The show is now over,
This site will be too.
Where will you go?
What will you do?

I'll tell you.

You all will learn a valuable lesson.
One that will serve you well.
You'll get a life, and do other things.
That should ring a bell.

So abandon all hope, ye crazy people.
You'll never get on the show.
Don't waste your time with such stupid things.
Or you'll suffer a mighty blow.

Think about it.

Yes, I fight poetry with poetry. I used to write some poetry of my own, back in the day. Telling you lot off has awakened my poetry skills. Amazing.

You're very easy to outwit.

And that is no bulls**t.

Bloggers, you're all screwed up.
You whine and moan much like a pup.
But now your show has gone away.
And that is good, 'cause it was gay.

You stupid people are quite sad.
And this I know is true.
You loved a show that was quite bad.
Now it's canned, and you are blue.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it, a$$hats.

Hello Mr. Banker,
Your Bloggin "BFF's" will be awaiting for the new season to begin from your new place.
Here are some of my thoughts about "Deal Or No Deal".


There are many many crazy things
That will keep us watching "Deal Or No Deal"
And now I will list a few

The way Mr. Banker likes to chat
The way Howie comments surprises me
The many memories of all that
No the season finale can't take that away from me

The way the Models smile just beams
The way "DOND" singers sing off key
The way I want to be a Contestant haunts my dreams
No the season finale can't take that away from me

We will await for the new season to begin again,
But I'll always keep the memory of whats been

The way Casting might call would be nice
The way I'll stay close to my phones, I have three
The way you could change my life
No the season finale can't take that away from me

Dollydeb, the fact that you took the time to write all that rubbish about grammar shows that you are both sad and have no life whatsoever. Please give up and shut your hole at once.

As for you, Judy, I have this to say, with regards to your response:
7 letters
2 words
1 meaning
F(rhymes with duck) off.

Oh yes, and I have some great news for you lot - the primetime DoND and 15 other shows are officially off of NBC's primetime schedule for fall 2009. Here's some proof.

From AP / MSNBC, posted 5 / 19 / 09

NBC is giving the equivalent of broadcast time-shares to "Heroes," ''Chuck" and some of its half-dozen new series. In addition, the network has given thumbs-up to new seasons of "The Biggest Loser" and "The Celebrity Apprentice"

Instead of airing throughout the 2009-10 season, designated shows will have their turn and then make way for the next wave, NBC said Tuesday in announcing its schedule. The network's Winter Olympics broadcast will provide the midseason dividing line.

U.S. cable channels and foreign broadcasters have successfully used the approach of running a series straight through without reruns, giving viewers a steady stream of new fare, said Ben Silverman, co-chair of NBC Entertainment and Universal Media Studios.

A handful of network series, including Fox's "24" and ABC's "Lost," have followed the pattern.

NBC is positioning itself as a "52-week-a-year programmer," Silverman said, with the Olympics offering a strong launching pad to establish new midseason shows.

NBC needs a shock to the system: It's been mired in fourth place with viewers and the advertiser-favored young adult demographic.

Off the schedule are "Medium," ''My Name Is Earl" and the game show "Deal or No Deal," which saw its ratings shrink after a syndicated version launched. TheFutonCritic.com has reported that the primetime version has indeed been cancelled. Said cancellation doesn't extend to the latter's syndicated version. Also cancelled: "Superstars of Dance", "Momma's Boys", and "The Chopping Block".
In total the Peacock will have parted ways with 16 series, the most by any broadcast network (number two: ABC with 12).

And there ypu have it. Read the fine print, a$$holes. Primetime DoND is cancelled - for good. The three episodes you saw over the past few weeks? Burnoff material. They just needed an oppotunity to get the shows aired somehow, and they did. However, in terms of ratings, it tanked, so it got yanked. But of course, since all of you are mired in the swamp known as denial, you'll still believe that the primetime show will be returning. Sorry to burst your respective bubbles, but it won't be. So there. Syndie version will continue, and I guarantee that none of you will be selected as contestants because you're all so messed up. I'm going to put a $100 CDN bet on that too. Looks like I'll be keeping my money. Nice.

-MM.

Well Mr Banker I hope you enjoy your furlough from DOND maybe you could mow some yards in your neighborhood to make ends meet.

Posted by:Judy | May 20, 2009, 08:50 PM

 

See, MM-even I need an extra set of eyes. The word that I wrote should have been 'may' not 'my',
I apologize for the error.

Mr. Banker-is that why you have been gone for so long?
You have made too many mistakes?

Don't worry, Mr. Banker-most of us are here for you.
...And some of us are here for your money.

Posted by:dollydeb | May 20, 2009, 08:40 PM

 

Wow, Bloggers:
So many posts since early this week.
What an ending for the season, huh! I noticed that most of you watched.

Oh, MM-a bit of advice-writing a novel and actually getting one published are two entirely different paths (altho they my converge at some point). I was merely pointing out that you used a subject pronoun (I) where an object pronoun was needed. 'Nuff said.
I hope you learn from it-when my editor points out my mistakes, I usually embrace the lesson and learn from it (for example, did you know that the accepted format for ending a sentence is to space only ONCE after the ending punctuation? Well, since I have been typing for over 30 years, that means that I'm too old to change that habit.

Now, Mr. Banker-can you please confirm or dispell the rumors? Hope your nighttime job isn't being canned.

Hello All,

No one is going to break my stride

So despite all your pointless bickering, the show is still canceled. I think this is everything I need to say:

You've got as many guesses as you need, but if you're intelligent at all, you won't need more than one.

Good Brunch Time to "Mr.B's Bloggin "BFF's", and you to Mr. Banker,

All I have to say at this time is: Pa-LEASE!

"Deal or No Deal" is all about the unexpected. What is wrong with you "Commentator wanna be's". The commerical take off's of "DOND" show is done exactly like the advertisement of the other TV shows even the movies. The are given many different scenarios. There is no need to even watch the show if your wanting the commercial to tell you the outcome.
Again I say, it's the unexcepted that makes the show "Deal Or No Deal" exciting. Also, YOU (you know who you are)prove this everytime you get on this blog to be with other "Mr. B's Bloggin "BFF's" who are the "DOND" fans.
Stick that in pipe and smoke it, no wait smoking is bad for you, so instead stick it in your juicebox (juice is good for you).

Andrew B,

I didn't watch the episode because a rival network's two hour season finale of my other favorite show was on. Andrew B or should I say Mad Andrew, you're right on the third and final contestant of the night. She had this one way attitude and she wound up with chump change as a result. (How much did she win by the way?) I'd say primetime DOND ended with a whimper, not with a bang. What do you think?


Until next time
Eric


P.S. Primetime DOND

Born: December 19, 2005


Died: May 18, 2009

Reasons of cancellation: million dollar missions, over-the-top with their emotions contestants, overexposure, Brooks Leach, misleading us viewers, October from **** '07.

Posted by:Eric | May 18, 2009, 11:20 PM

 

Well, there you go, boys. Not very unhappy to see this thing go, and I'll tell you what went wrong tonight. I watched tonight's show just to see the ship sink, but what did I find? Stupidity, and a row that would make Jerry Springer go to Confession after watching.

So with Kim, we get the 10, 25, 500, and 750,000. Last round had no net either. Now, maybe my captions were off, maybe my hearing was bad, or maybe I misunderstood what Kim meant, but I thought that I could faintly hear Kim enunciate the following:

"Even if I lose the $750,000, I'm not scared..."

So the board is a complete one-case game, where running into the top number drops the offer from $137,000 to $178, and you are NOT worried? I think I speak for everyone watching this show, not that there were many...

Why are you quitting the game?!!

For Thomas, the gameplay and Thomas himself, plus that $3 joke offer and the monkey challenge, is a reminder of what we used to love about this show. But in the grand tradition, there just has to be a complementary serving of bile mixed with castor oil. The supporters bench is, taken collectively, the absolute stupidest bench in the history of Deal or No Deal. They have absolutely NO CLUE how this game is supposed to work. And they're here to support a mathematician?

Thomas' mother wanted him to deal at the $144,000, on the SECOND OFFER, with five cases on top. So why are you standing on the stage of a $1,000,000 show?

Even when it drops all the way down to $57,000, leaving no "huge money" excuse, and with four big cases still on top, she insists that the deal be taken. So explain your reasoning, if you will...

Now, it gets plain dumb. 200,000, 500,000 and 750,000 are on top of eight cases. The offer is about 130,000. Already, at ONLY 130,000, the mother, and now the father as well, are looking like they are about to disown Thomas. Maybe you've just taken a shot of LSD before the show, or some other unknown drug that makes you see ghosts...as I thought THOMAS was the mathematician and the guy who knew how the game was supposed to be played. NOT YOU. And once again, if you cannot control yourself over only 1/8 of a show's top prize, you are a wimp who should never have come into this studio!

After this deal is refused, ignoring that, Mom says "He should have taken the deal." Again, who's the one who has the strategy?

Now, the board is 500K and 750K with four other small cases. The offer here is $167,000. Could the discord get any worse? Yes. Dad looks as if he could be pointing a gun at Thomas, and Mom is yelling out "There's no safety!" YES, THERE IS, YOU BLITHERING IDIOT!! Get off the stage!

Oh, what are you crying over, Mom? He refused the deal? Don't you dare argue with a mathematician in a game of odds.

At a $220,000 deal, the board is .01, 50, 5,000, 500,000 and 750,000. Now, this is actually dealable, and I would consider taking it. The problem is that Dad sees the need to actually carry out his threat, coming onto the podium and practically smacking his son in the face, saying "YOU ARE TAKING THAT DEAL!" Are you a hypnotist or a psychic who can see this will happen, the player that has his strategy, or a mathematician that knows the odds better than the player? No.

Could you get more inane than practical physical assault on national television? Sure can.

"Your strategy has always been expected gain versus expected loss. If you run into the 750,000, your offer drops under 100,000. That's a loss of over 120,000 you're looking at."

...Yeah? So? That is twice that you have proven yourself to be spectacularly dumb at mathematics, yet you try to LECTURE someone about it? Let me teach you a thing or two about expected gain and loss, brother! You said "expected gain AND expected loss", yet only covered one of them. An expected loss, of ANY size, means absolutely ZERO until you look at the other side. According to your own principles, the offer will increase about 90,000 to 100,000 if one of the small cases is hit. That is $270,000 to $300,000 against your so-called "$120,000" expected loss. Now either go back to school and learn how math is supposed to be done, or just GET OUT.

Finally, the deal is taken, but thanks to the shot of the post-deal "celebration" in the promo, we knew he was taking a deal. More oil spilled on a rain forest...could you show some sort of decency, NBC? To top it all off, the next case was small. There you go. Proof that you NEVER - EVER - lecture a genius when you're a complete muggle. Who Thomas inherited all this talent from will remain one of life's greatest questions for years to come. That game was DISGUSTING. Does anyone here really ENJOY watching this?

I almost don't even want to bother talking about the third game, but I will, simply because it shows NBC's resolve to flip us the finger at the gallows: The sound clip of Howie, after one of the commercials, stating "This could be the greatest comeback in Deal or No Deal history."

Yeah. COULD be. That means absolutely nothing. As it was foreseen from the nanosecond afterwards, it was only referred to as an aside: "If we can keep [400K] around...blah, blah, blah." And as also foreseen, it was another lame fake. The $400,000 was removed at the start of round 5, leaving an all-blue final seven. Some comeback that was.

Ironic, isn't it? NBC's final act as the owners of a degenerate soul about to be lost forever...is to suggest a comeback.

Or maybe...IT IS WRITTEN. Let's finally give it up, bloggers.

wish I was smart like you andrew, that's why I like this show and want to be on it, I couldn't possibly answer any questions other than Deal or No Deal.

What a night!!!

Kim J. had guts, then lost them. She should have gone to the "Deal Or No Deal" Lost and Found and looked for thm during the break.

Thomas F. did the math and walked away with a hunk of Mr. Banker's money. But, I only say this because of seeing the board after he said Deal. With the 2 big amounts left I would have probably gone one more.

Like Madonna would say "Like A Prayer", where I would say "With Out A Prayer" for Goretty. Such a darling player too.

[ MRRRRRRP ] Fail. The commercials ARE a "should of, could of, would of's of past games played!" Would you like me to give you a second chance, Judy?

Don't try to tell me that I have no business assuming that you're acting like a mindless fangirl. All of your repeated cold shoulders to the truth have already established that as a fact. That's the key difference here.

It's a new day, and a new way...

What a dream I had this morning...

I rode on an elevator that traveled so fast you had to lie down and of course I had to go to the top floor 335...

I saw a doctor there I didn't want to ride the elevator back down so I went through a door and went outside, there were houses up there it looked like a whole neighborhood there, but the office building was at the end of the street, I couldn't look over the edge to see how far down it was I was told the bottom couldn't be seen...

you want to hear more or not?

maybe you've been there Mr Banker, is that your new place?

And further more boys, I don't give a damn if you don't like me, cause I don't like you, cause you're not like me!...
I believe that is the chorus from "The Bloodhound Gang" song.

I do care about what tomorrow, as in Monday the 18th of May, has in store for DOND and Medium.

Dollydeb, YOUR example demonstrates bad grammar. I used to be an English major at McGill University a few years ago. In addition, I also moonlight as a writer and journalist. And on top of all that, I'm working on a novel as well. So I don't need some quack telling me about grammar violations, as I know all about proper spelling and grammar. You can shut up now, Dollydeb. Your efforts to bring me down are futile. I honestly don't know why you and your stupid posse bother.

-MM.

Posted by:Mad Mark | May 17, 2009, 07:01 PM

 

Okay, bloggers. You're completely ignoring me.

By refusing to give any sort of answer to my question, you have shown that your answer is in the negative - that Jessica, Ashley, Diane, Tomorrow, Denise, Brandy, and all the other games never had any of those aspects of my ire in them. Yet when I go back to the posts as we were about to see Jessica give out a Banker Spanking, I see admissions that the spoilers for Jessica did exist:

By Judy: "It's time to watch the Banker Cry..."

By Dollydeb: "I am correct in thinking that tomorrow's episode is when Mr. Banker is stripped of his million dollar case?"

And even by Dawn, who continues to spearhead this worthless effort:

Good Evening all!

"Mr.Banker, tonite is the night!!!!

There will be a MILLION DOLLAR WINNER!!!!!"

This is all after reading the Banker's entry that gives away the fact that $1,000,000 will be awarded. So all of you do admit that there were inordinate spoilers for Jessica's game, at the very least.

Now, stop denying it, which is what you're doing when you ignore me, and give me some sort of answer.

Did Jessica's episode have no spoilers of any kind? I have it all on video if you'd like tp challenge this.

Did Tomorrow's game take 50 minutes like it was supposed to? I've also taped that.

Was Michelle Falco's $750,000 and $1,000,000 finish a surprise for all viewers? It's a very special episode nevertheless, so I've kept it, and I've got the promo to prove it was spoiled.

So, there you go, bloggers. Video proof of the transgressions of NBC DonD, and your own words to show you're aware of it. Yet you still deny such travesties ever existed. If you want to continue this fight, you've got to ask yourself this question:

Do you feel lucky?

Posted by:andrew b | May 17, 2009, 04:54 PM

 

Hi Bloggers (yes, even MM and Andrew)
Hi Mr. Banker!
Wow, MM, since you claim I act in an elementary manner, maybe an elementary grammar lesson is in order...
When you end a sentence and have to decide if you are using the object pronoun ME or the subject pronoun I, along with another noun or pronoun-
(still with me here?)...
remove the extra noun or pronoun and read the sentence to yourself.

Example: when you completed your sentence with "...except Andrew and I" you should have used the word ME, not I (the pronoun needed was the object pronoun, not the subject pronoun).
Seriously, would it really have sounded correct if you had said "....except I"?

Now, Mr. Banker-for your lesson today (geee, so many absences, I believe you will have to repeat this year).

Anyway, here's your daily math question....

How do you equally divide the million dollars between ALL of the deserving bloggers?

Class...maybe Mr. Banker could use some help with that one.

Linda-great post. You had me going for a moment.

Hi Judy! Where's Dawn? Where's Jan? Where's Andres? Where's Waldo? whoops.

Sunshine Beams to All today,

I have been thinking:

This blog has gotten so bad, that the speed limit through it is 100 mph because there is no chance of running into anyone.

This blog has gotten so bad, that Mr. Banker's Blogger's are cleaning their fingerprints off their computer keyboards so no one will know they have posted on this blog.

This blog has gotten so bad, that Mr. Banker won't even claim it.

This blog has gotten so bad, that Mr. Banker's on stage office looks brighter than this blog.

This blog has gotten so bad, that Dollydeb's Mr. Banker doll has more life than Mr. Banker.

This blog has gotten so bad, that Jan's polka step's should show Mr. Banker he needs to get to steppin and step up and be a poster man.

This blog has gotten so bad, that Mr. Banker is "NBC" backwards "C Banker? No"

This blog has gotten so bad, that instead of blogging to Mr. Banker I am blogging to myself.

This blog has gotten so bad, that Micheal Jackson wrote a song about Mr. Banker, "Mr. Banker is bad, he's bad you know it.

This blog has gotten so bad, that they sent Mr. Banker back to where he came from "Waterford, Connecticut.

This blog has gotten so bad, that I have to ask Mr. Banker, are you returning? Is it a "Deal" or "No Deal"?


PS: Everyone knows I love "Deal Or No Deal" show, and "Mr. Banker's Blog". This was done all in fun.
As the great Paul Harvey would always say "Good Day"

Just think about it.....

Just what makes us "DOND" Contestant wanna be's
Think we can get Casting to place those telephone calls
It's because we have high hopes, we've got high hopes
We've got dollar signs in the eyes hope
So while your waiting to get the call don't start feeling low
Just remember always to be ready and packed to go
Whoa! Is that Casting calling? Ring Ring Ring
I guess answering the phone is the next best thing
Oops, wrong number : ( That's okay, waiting is like a game.
But, not the game we want to play, "Deal Or No Deal" is our game to fame!

Okay, based on the assinine responses I just read, I have come to a conclusion:
Everyone on this blog is f***ed up in the head except for Andrew and I.
There is no other way to put it. Your childish posts and refusal to listen to reason ellicited this response. Seriously, why do you idiots even bother? I know what's coming; lots more awful poetry and more stupid comments. Not only are you lot stupid, you're also predictable and annoying, just like the show you all so love. Face it. DoND USA is total ass, kind of like first-generation Nova LFS. Thing is, those are prone to engine fires. You lot are just prone to inane stupidity.

You talkin to me????
I see now you were posting your remarks to me,

First of all you don't talk that way to me to get me to respond!
I don't owe you any explaination.
I have already explained how you love the show "DOND" by using your own words.
All of the info you stated, be true or not, could only be stated by one who watches "Deal Or No Deal" so intensely.
You show you find the show so exciting that you actually study.
Andrew b, I am going to give you this much, you bring up points of the show to give this blog a kick. Thank U !!!
Mr. Banker sure isn't bringing any spice to the blog at this time. But, we have to remember he's moving.

I still didn't hear it. Try writing that post again.

By the way, since you fail to read posts in the first place, I'm going to print this again.

We all love Deal or No Deal, but this show is NOT Deal or No Deal. The real show would not have done any of these stupid things.

Can you explain why a show whose producers took a self-imposed exile to learn how to conduct it better, yet apparently did not learn anything, can still be called good?

I want you to explain to me. Either you affirm or you deny the items on the list. What's your choice, Linda?

Posted by:andrew b | May 15, 2009, 02:51 PM

 

"Deal Or No Deal" is what it is,
A very Entertaining and Exciting show!!!

(oh! no!) (no! no!)
(that's ok!) (that's ok!)
Well, don't you know
That's the sound of the Contestants playing on the show "Deal Or No Deal" with the "DOND" ga-a-ang
All day long Casting is putting on the next great "DOND" show, that's when the Contestants are singing
(oh! no!) (no! no!)
(that's ok!) (that's ok!)

All day long Mr. Banker, Howie, and Models they work so hard
Till the sun is going down, soon to be in a new state and town
Working on the cases and shadowing Mr. Banker in different ways
And the models wearing those pretty outfis and gowns
You hear Mr. Banker moaning about what he might have to give away
Then your wondering what you might hear Howie sa-ay

(turn the lights on here) (pull that single hair on Howie's head)
(do this stunt first) (make sure the box dings) (Models move a little to the left)
Well, don't you know
That's the sound of the people working on the "DOND" ga-a-ang
That's the sound of the Casting bringing us another exciting show a-ga-in.

That your words are so condradicting of thee.


You say you have been panninig the "DOND" show for so long.
Right there your saying you watch the show all the time.

Stop this pointless fanboyism.
Right there you are possessed with irrational zeal by watching something all the time which you claim you hate.
You fanboy you, you love the show.

You don't have to be so critical thinking about "Deal Or No Deal" The things you state are why we watch it, and that is called Excitement. That is also why you turn to Mr. B's Blog and his Bloggin "BFF's".

Now let us all join in a chorus of "Kum Ba Yah".

You guys all have a big choice to make. Stop this pointless fanboyism and understand exactly why we've been panning this show for so long, or deny the existence of any and all of the events on that list. I'll repeat it for you, since none of you bothered to read it the first time:

Ashley's false promo.
Marybeth's fake 52-pickup.
Tomorrow's editing disaster.
Any and all Jessica spoilers.
The false "best for last" claim at the end of Season 3.
The false claim that Gary would be going for the million, when all 1M were lost in four picks.
The refusal to air Halie Swan's game, when you aired Gary's that had the same start.
The claim that Halie Swan's game lacked excitement, when your meddling with the promos did that for a whole bunch of other games.
The Diane Jorgenson fiasco.
And a new addition...the fake lure for Denise's game.

You have a huge decision to make. There's only two choices. DEAL...or NO DEAL?

Mr. Banker:

The recent low ratings of the nighttime version mean it's time for you to step up your efforts to make sure NBC keeps it on!

Just slip green pieces of paper into NBC head honcho Ben Silverman's hand. Green pieces of paper with big numbers on them.

And suggest that the show be tried Saturdays at 8 p.m. Eastern, 7 p.m. Central.

The competition at that hour is so weak that DOND will become the number-one show on TV.

And us bloggers will be million-dollar winners!

Since we all make the effort to go on your blog, you will reward us by giving each of us the $Million.

We'll all leave the new DOND studio in Connecticut wealthy.

While those who don't go on your blog will leave waterford with one cent each.

Here now, let's not forget what this blog is for and about.

It's for us "Deal Or No Deal" Bloggers to discuss the Banker's offers (trying to send you home with less)
his witt (or is it twit), his compassion for the Contestants (yeah, right),
his anonymity (maybe the shadow is the only tan Mr. Banker has ever had), and finally the love he has
for his blog (Stop laughing, maybe he has hangnails that get caught in the keyboard which keeps him from
posting a new post since November 2008) !!!

Now,

1. It's about our love of the "Deal Or No Deal" show.
2. It's about us "DOND" Contestant Wanna be's.
3. It's about me, me, me, (well I want it to be) Ha Ha Ha Ha, sorry I can't stop Ha Ha Ha Ha

Andrew B,

Those flaws that you posted jumped on the already sinking Titanic that was going down away. If and when primetime DOND gets cancelled, it'll look back and say "How did we destroy a once great show?".

I remain

Dollydeb, your immaturity enrages me. No, Andrew and I don't need hugs or time outs. How dare you insinuate that we are childish when it is you and your posse who are the ones who are childish.

And another thing - I, like Andrew, am not bullying you lot either. It's just that you idiots fail to understand the facts, and are drowning in a river called denial. Seriously, I am under the impression that some of you are mentally ill as a result. Face it - the truth hurts sometimes. However, the fact that none of you choose to listen to the facts and whatnot shows just how childish you all are. Grow the hell up already. Some of you are freakin' grandparents, for crying out loud. I'm a third of your age, and I act more mature than some of you. This stupid show is going off the air soon, anyway, so go find something else to do. Trust me, it's not that hard to find something to do.

Eric, your questions are inane and redundant. Why the hell do you even bother asking them?

I'm winning to bet money that at least one of you will post some horribly childish response to this post. Given the collective stupidity of some of the regular posters here, it most likely will happen.

By the way, I'm saying all of this for your own good, but of course, since you are quite possibly the most deluded people in the universe, my reality check will fall on deaf ears once again. If I can't penetrate your thick skulls, then no one can.

-MM.

Andrew B,

I remember that season finale last year with Brandi Brown. The best for last should've been renamed the worst for last when Brandi pushed her game too far and only won $28,000. What about the October from **** '07 where three contestants Alicia Whitaker, Wynetta Williams (the banker sending snakes played a part in Wynetta selling her million dollar case), and Neal Washington selling their million dollar cases. And last but least, Brooks Leach, who without a doubt was the biggest joke in game show history. To this day, I don't know why he became a contestant much less got a second chance in the 100th episode two seasons ago.

Andrew, you've done a very good job exposing some of the flaws of primetime DOND has and don't be suprised if season 4 ends on a bad note like season 3 did last year.


Until next time
Eric


P.S. Mad Mark, does your brother Mad Matt not care for contestants who screw up as well?

Thank You "NBC",
Just the beginning of shows to come.


One day there will be a "Breakthrough" on this blog. "Who Do You Think You Are?" Casting? While Mr. Banker is "The Philanthropist", even though you couldn't tell it by watching him on"Deal Or No Deal"show, Casting you are supposed to be "The Listener" of the people who have been trying for so long to be a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal" show for example me, Linda Caroots trying since May 2006. Remember "America's Got Talent", and some are right here on Mr. Banker's Blog. Mr. Banker's BFF's are ready to take that "Great American Road Trip" to the DOND stage to be Contestants. Then after we have won our Million $'s, at that time each will be able to say "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!" I went and had a talk with "Merlin", and he told me of a story that shows Mr. Banker's Bloggers might be the "Meteor" that hits the DOND stage way of a "The Storm". But until something as great as that happens I am waiting with excitement for "The Jay Leno Show" and " The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" to come to my TV.

Good Morning Mr. Banker, and "Mr. Banker's Bloggin "BFF's", and all "NBC" "Deal Or No Deal" People,

Happy anniversary to Linda Caroots (that's me),
It's been 3 years of trying to get chosen for "DOND".
Since May 2006 each year has been full of joy and fun
A Contestant wanna be, still hoping to become one
Me being a Contestant for an hour show run,
Would mean my good times have just begun.

Seaon Finale?
Hey-the show just started back up!
Talk about Banker's hours.

Now now now-MM and A, do you two need a time out?
Mr. Banker might make you count all his pennies.

Linda, I'm here for ya'!

And, Linda, don't take it too seriously-I have grouped a few of the bloggers into the Louis Black group-he's the perpetual whiner, but really a sweetheart underneath that gruff exterior (sorta like Mr. Banker).

Wait, I'm not talking about L. Black, I'm talking about hubby-
HE'S a perpetual complainer, but all he really wants is some attention and a big hug.

So....Mad Mark and Andrew:
Here's a big hug for you

{{{{{hug}}}}}
And, while I'm at it,
Mr. Banker, here's a big hug for you, too.

{{{{{{{{{hug}}}}}}}}}

(now, before MM and A start complaining about the hugs, just remember-we have your personalities pegged here.
Hey, maybe we should call you two Peggy! {{grin}}

And, if you don't see me posting for a few days, it's not because you have scared me off; I'm simply too busy with other commitments right now.

"andrew b, why do you sometimes try to bring down the spirit of the show? You too love the "DOND"."

I love Deal or No Deal. The difference, which everyone else here seems to fail to comprehend, is that this is NOT DEAL OR NO DEAL.

What spirit is there left in it to bring down? Everything there once was, even that which you can still see vaguely in there, has all been replaced by corporate greed, lies, laziness, annoyances, and just plain stupidity. That's the fine line here, Linda. And Dawn. And Dolly. Etcetera.

Posted by:andrew b | May 11, 2009, 10:24 PM

 

Linda. Listen to me. You're still loyal to the NBC version of Deal or No Deal. That means you are denying the existence of everything me and Mark have complained about:

Ashley's false promo.
Marybeth's fake 52-pickup.
Tomorrow's editing disaster.
Any and all Jessica spoilers.
The false "best for last" claim at the end of Season 3.
The false claim that Gary would be going for the million, when all 1M were lost in four picks.
The refusal to air Halie Swan's game, when you aired Gary's that had the same start.
The claim that Halie Swan's game lacked excitement, when your meddling with the promos did that for a whole bunch of other games.
The Diane Jorgenson fiasco.

So? Did none of these ever happen? Is that really what you're telling me, Linda?

We want the real Deal or No Deal back. The one Dawn mindlessly raves about, that she thinks is still here. IT'S NOT.

Close the box, and say No Deal to Deal. It isn't that difficult. Everyone on the show did it at least twice.

Posted by:andrew b | May 11, 2009, 10:19 PM

 

andrew b, why do you sometimes try to bring down the spirit of the show? You too love the "DOND". Don't confuse yourself with all your mixed up hypothesis. You should just watch the show and be happy without beating yourself up for liking it. ENJOY : )

PS: Or do you work for another network that's jealous because they don't have "Deal Or No Deal" on their billboard? Ha Ha

Posted by:Linda Caroots | May 11, 2009, 09:51 PM

 

No, Linda. It just shows how laughably transparent the schemes of the producers are, after all these pathetic attempts to fool us.

Were you fooled by Marybeth's card trick? I wasn't, but I was still in denial after I saw it that Marybeth would be so brainless as to make the deal at 2 cases.

Did the "record-breaking offer of $1,100,000" fool you? I wouldn't believe it, and with the pace of the game, I knew this had to be that 260K for 2M sale, and NBC was just being a liar.

Did you get fooled by a sound clip of Howie saying "world record offer" during one of the Missions? We never got that world record offer...Hello? Still there, Howie?

This is about on the level of a pathetically designed attempt once pulled by FOX on Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?

Nobody had won their million yet, and a few people had missed the question (the 1M question is see it, and you must answer) and dropped $475,000, and a few people had chickened out and lost the 1M.

So, today the promo says "Tonight...an AYS5 first....someone will answer the Million Dollar Question...AND GET IT RIGHT!"

What actually happened was that the guy was confident enough to ask for the 1M question to be loaded into the computer at the start of the game. And...the guy lost on the second question. And then answered the $1,000,000 question and got it right.

Whoever came up with that promo should be executed in an iron maiden, then resurrected and executed again. How are the extra ratings from people wanting to tune in to see the so-called big win are going to outnumber the gargantuan mob of former viewers caused by this lie that would make Pinocchio's nose touch Alpha Centauri?

I figured out the plans of AYS producers in addition to the DonD producers. And Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader? is clearly all the DonD producer job application needs to have on it. Because it appears that that's been seriously lacking.

Posted by:andrew b | May 11, 2009, 09:34 PM

 

Andrew is right - as usual. You can all shut your stupid holes now, 'cause the game show you love so much is just being used as summer burnoff programming. It's going to get cancelled for real very soon, and then you immature lot will be crying your stupid eyes out. Even the syndie version is total rubbish. I refuse to watch USA DoND anymore. Like Andrew, I will be boycotting it. For all I know, tonight's contestant(s) probably f**ked things way up, as is the norm with this pathetic waste of a game show. Grow the hell up, all of you, and get a life. This show is slowoly rotting away your brains.

So, guys...more Deal or No Deal. As you can expect, I am refusing to watch it. But my DVR did automatically tune itself to NBC to record the show, and while Dad was searching for the previous channel, I caught the promo.

According to the promo:

- The last eight cases are 1M, three other Super Seven, and four small, including 1.

- The lead-in question is "Will she take a deal and get out....or play all the way and possibly become our next millionaire?"

- And here's a key one. A clip of Howie speaking that says "One case is worth $1, one case is worth $1,000,000."

- Then, a clip of Howie and the player and supporters gathered around the case to watch it casually open.

I see right through this fake attempt to drum up some suspense, because after all, it's ONLY SOUND that we heard. If it was real, they'd show the actual board.

If she was actually going all the way, or if she dealt at 1/1M and was waiting to see if she sold out 1M, they would look so much more dramatized and Howie would be opening it more seriously.

What is actually going to happen at the end of this hour, and it comes with an ironclad guarantee, is that our resident contestant will deal at some earlier point, and only THEN will the board turn into $1 vs. $1,000,000.

When you've seen three years of stupidity, you know the signs. This is clear as crystal. Don't bother with it if you're watching right now, because this is going to be nothing worthwhile.

And if this is real, don't get used to it, because you won't be seeing this show much longer. And you know exactly why.

Good night...

Andres, sorry to crush your dreams, but I find it highly unlikely that anyone else from this blog will make it on the show. Yes, we all know LB did, but then again, she didn't win that much, anyway. Besides, after her apperance on the show, she disappeared from this madhouse. Maybe I ought to disappear myself. I honestly don't know why I wast my time on you people and your sorry excuse for a game show, anyway. Maybe it's because I like to see how much I can get away with. Or maybe I just like being evil.

Linda, I enjoyed watching that Paul Potts video!! He's got a voice very similar to that of Italian-opera legend, Luciano Pavarotti(RIP). We have very talented people right here in America too...Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Sarah Chang(a violinist), Hilary Hahn, Alicia Keys, and many others. I don't understand why our American musicians don't receive as much attention as British singers Susan Boyle and Paul Potts...what's up with that??

I hope that at least one of us gets called by NBC to be on this show. It will really be a darn shame if they don't call us.

I've noticed that the half-hour version of this show still airs in the daytime. Could it be that Howie has a twin brother? LOL.

Salutations Mr. Banker,

I was just thinking about if I am ever lucky enough to become a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal" how will I be able to read your poker face, hmmmm...you have no face, just a shadow. I would love to tell if your offers will be going up or down. You have done some weird offers even when the Contestant has had a winning board. Go ahead and keep your face to yourself. It makes no difference, because if we ever go up against each other you'll never be able to read my poker face (Never In A Million Years) hmmm, where have I heard that before??? In fact if I ever make it to the "Deal Or No Deal" stage my face will be ( FLUSH )ed, because I will be playing in front of a ( FULL HOUSE )
My daughters will be my Supporters, and they are ( 3 of a Kind ), but with me we're ( 4 of a Kind ) a fortress to reckon with. We are the ( ROYAL FLUSH ) that beats all. So get this ( STRAIGHT ), you might think being a shadow makes you the ( HIGH CARD ), but what it would boil down to is that your not even ( 1 PAIR ), but we are a strong ( 2 PAIR ). Yes, Mr. Banker if I am ever selected to be a "DOND" Contestant I will have all the winning numbers, and that's the ( STRAIGHT FLUSH ) from me to you.

PS: Is it my turn to "Deal" or "No Deal"??? It's a 26 game draw.

The Patriotic Retirement

An article from the St. Petersburg Times Newspaper, Business Section asked readers for ideas on "How Would You Fix the Economy"

Dear Mr President,

There are about 40 million people Over 50 in the work force, pay them $1 Million a piece severence with stipulations:
1) They leave their jobs.
40 million job openings -
Unemployment fixed.
2) They buy NEW American Cars. 40 million cars ordered - Auto Indusdry fixed.
3) They either buy a house or pay off their mortgage -
Housing Crises Fixed.

All This and it's still
cheaper than the "Bailout"

I'd add:
4)Pay off Kids College Debt or Sponser a kid they know or don't know in America
5)Adopt a rescued pet.

I remain In Love with the USA version of Deal Or No Deal and Medium!!

And tonight Adam Lambert on American Idol. I liked his NonCountry version of "Ring of Fire", it was vampish with an Asian feel and a Hellish fire was burning behind him, with his
"Vampish Elvis" looks...

I can't wait to see what he does tonight!

Welcome back Prime Time DealornoDeal, it was great last night...

Mr Banker you still looked a little hung over from your birthday bash!

I am EXTREMELY disappointed that not a single person from this blog has been chosen to be a DOND contestant. People like Linda Caroots, Dawn Mays, and Dollydeb have been waiting a terribly-long time...Linda has waited 3 YEARS. How much longer are they going to wait?????? How much longer must I wait to be on this show? What can I possibly do to convey the urgency of my situation? Maybe I should've auditioned for "America's Got Talent" instead because I have 2 different musical talents. And then I can get millions of views on my videos just like Susan Boyle, who has an astonishing 51 MILLION views on one of her videos and it has only been a few weeks!!!

I am still patiently waiting for that life-changing call from DOND.

KUDOS to "NBC", Mr. Banker, Howie, and the "DOND" Models.
It was WONDERFUL!!!
Thank You!!!

It was a a great show, and a great opening to start with.

Thank you Eric : ) I do, if I say so myself. Ha Ha Ha

Jofus, I agree with your post!!!

Dollydeb, So that was your voice I heard in the wind : ) I thought I was hearing things.

Richard, that is one book I am going to read.

When will you idiots learn?!

DOND SUCKS ASS!!! GET OVER IT!!! DEATH TO THE US VERSION!!! UP WITH THE UK VERSION!!!

So you people waited several months just to see some idiot walk out with less than $200,000. That just shows how dumb you lot are. Same applies to the producers, who according to Andrew, are still retarded and have no clue how to produce this show. I didn't see it, and I'm glad. If you still like this crap, there is something undeniably wrong with you, and you should seriously consider getting yourself admitted to a psychiatric institution.

Wow!

Diane Jorgenson, after a four month wait, took home $186,000. Diane, if you're listening, I know that you had been waiting patiently for four months to finish your game and because of your patience, you took home a lot of money. God's speed to you and your family Diane.

Until next time

P.S. Linda, you give good advice.

Wow!

Diane Jorgenson after a four month wait, took home $186,000. Had she continued, she would've chosen cases 18 and 13 and as we all know cases 13 and 18 have had a history of ruining player's games. Lucky for Diane, case 13 had the million and case 18 had $750,000. Diane Jorgenson, If your listening, you waited four long months to finish your game and because of your patience, you won a lot of money. God's speed to you and your family Diane.

There's a book out on your fave show.

Behind the Briefcase: The Unauthorized Guide to Deal or No Deal (Paperback)

Deal or No Deal is back...

...and the producers show that they just won't quit being an insufferable council of idiots, no matter how much good stuff we see.

You should be locked up in Alcatraz and forced to write five rolls of parchment worth of apologies to Diane Jorgenson. What you did to her game was cruel, unfair, and uncalled for. Even if it were a $1,000,000 winner used as a lead-in.

Most of the show's editing turned out pretty fine, but I still notice a lot of disturbing habits.

After round 4, Howie felt the need to call to break to ask us "how much the offer went up". We see that the 500K was erased. How much could the offer have gone up? If it were the bottom three amounts, maybe.

Now, as for that second game. After the 750K was terminated, Howie takes a whole minute to remind us "there is still 100K, 200K, 300K and 400K". Hey. We're not blind, Howie. We can read the board. Why don't you spend that time somewhere else? If the contestant needs prodding throughout the whole game to stay spirited, they shouldn't be on a stage on national TV. If the contestant needs to be told what is on the board, then they also shouldn't be on this show.

The Styrofoam challenge was shown with the suit, and then the break was taken. Okay, so we know it involves the suit. I think we can guess something of the sort as to what's going to happen. Use the commercial later.

On the very last commercial, Howie yells out "$400,000!!" louder than a Corvette in a library. Yeah? What about it? Why are you making such a big deal about the 400K prize when we all know he can't possibly win it in seven minutes?

At least there was no spoiling promo...but I now have no further reason to watch this show. I hope you feel good about what you did...it's been a long time since Wynetta Williams and Anabel Gomez. Maybe now you'll finally repent for your wrongs. Although I think it's already too late.

Rot in development hell....

This is a great day!

We get an hour and a half of "Deal Or No Deal" today and for the next several Mondays.

We'll get to see both the half-hour daytime show, and tonight, the return of the full-hour nighttime show.

Hopefully, NBC will renew the nighttime show and that Waterford, Connecticut will become the place where dozens of people over the next several years will win $1,000,000 (on the prime-time show) and $500,000 (on the daytime show).

(And Mr. Banker, make sure you slip some green pieces of paper to NBC executives to insure that the nighttime show gets renewed and given a good timeslot where next season it can become The Number-One Top-Rated Prime-Time Show On Television)

Primetime Deal returns tomorrow at 7:00 mountain time. Diane Jorgenson, a farmer from Iowa, returns to finish her game after a four month hiatus. Will she win big money or will the banker use a mean trick to prevent Diane from winning? Tune in tomorrow my friends.

Okay, yet another grossly out of touch with reality contestant on the British show...

Eddie, from yesterday, does have a good target of 50,000, but he applied it far too liberally, in the vein of Brien Crowder.

The final two were Morris, 20K vs. 250K, and with the target being 50K (for a mortgage, a car, etc.), the banker's offer is only 70,000. Now I know it's over the target, but there's exceptional circumstances here.

* The odds are 18:5 in your favor, and importantly, there is NOTHING UNDER 20K. The situation is vastly different if the board is 34,722 or 1p vs. 250K, even though it's the same odds, and even though those odds are still awful for a coin flip.

* The board has zero volatility. There is no "distortion" of the real odds across one really profitable outcome and several losing outcomes, as it would in the case of 70,000 vs. 500K, 250, 100, 50p, 1p. Then, although theoretically a 2/5 chance of raising it by 110,000 (and assuming the 180K is dealt, as it should be), there is a 3/5 chance of losing the entire stash, which seriously distorts the real odds. Here, the odds are 100% pure.

* People tend to get irritated when 250K wins with a net are blown! (Particularly since Eddie would have been the first guy...)

* Eddie would call going on "greedy", despite all the odds being undistorted and the downside not being a losing amount anyways. TWENTY THOUSAND POUNDS. It's more than all the other offers you've got the whole game! Refer back to the 500K 5-case board for the TRUE definition of being greedy.

* Eddie admitted he wanted to go for it. If you don't want to make a specific decision, you shouldn't make it. Doesn't the strategy of the show involve nothing but the use of your judgment? So you can't win if you contradict your own judgment.


So Box 23 says EPIC FAIL...though, to Eddie's credit, in a lot less idiotic way than most. And by winning more money than most such contestants. I give him that, but you just can't charge into the Dream Factory without knowing how to use your only weapon.

Good Afternoon Mr. Banker, and Mr. Banker's Bloggin "BFF's"

Somewhere over the United States
Way over to the East Coast side,
There's a state that I heard of
It's called Connecticut.
Everywhere over the country
Skies are blue,
And a move that you decided to do
Really does come true.

Someday soon we'll see a new "DOND" star
And watch a new Millionaire be born
Wishing it was me.
That's when troubles disappear like lemon drops
Away upon the "Deal or No Deal" stage spot
And that's where I want to be.

Everywhere there's Mr. Banker's Bloggin "BFF's"
To the "Deal Or No Deal" stage we want to fly.
Others have been Contestants on the West Coast side.
Why then, oh why can't we be on the East Coast side?

PS: Take us happy little "Deal or No Deal" Contestant wanna be's beyond the rainbow, and call us Casting : )

Yes, I am a fan of The Banker, but on the other hand, when us bloggers get on the show, we'll win the top prizes because at least we have the guts to comment on his blog.

In all likelyhood, he probably respects us for commenting on his blog.

And Waterford, Connecticut is near New London (about halfwsay between New York and Boston on I-95), which means the producers would be able to attract contestants from the heavily-populated Northeast Corridor, and perhaps hold tryouts at the nearby Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun casinos.

They can also give out tickets to tapings at the many tourist spots in southeastern Connecticut.

And finally, The Banker's main residence is a huge waterfront estate just about five or six miles from the show's new home.

OK Banker....I challenge you to a polka dance off. I will provide the music and Howie will show his legs in his lederhosen. Banker, I have a polka song to sing to you too, give me a chance. You love making fun of people and their weakness' so maybe the fun for you will be picking on me because I can't sing, I can only dance! But again you can pick on me all you want because the joke will be on you! You will have to wait to hear my song before you will understand that comment.

Please get back on your blog, I think the show should care about their good blog members and we should all get on this year.

Waiting patiently, with happy feet, in Minnesota (Polka country).

Now this is what I call a "Breakthrough" info Mr. Banker. Your are actually the one going on the "Great American Road Trip". This isn't "The Storm" we were expecting, but WOW! what big news. Have a good trip.

Dollydeb, this is what I came across a few days ago, but not as informative as what Brenda, and Jofus posted.

Season Five (2009)
Season Five will premiere on May 4 at 8:00 PM. This season will be shorter due to the show moving to a different studio where Season Six will premiere in September 2009. It is uncertain at this point whether this season will contain a Million-Dollar Mission.
This info came from this link:

Hi Mr. Absent Banker:

Hi Bloggers: do you think it's possible to make it to the 2000th post before Mr. Banker gives us any attention?
...Afterall, we only have 920 more posts to go.

Mad Mark: how did you know that I wear a size 5 shoe? (in fact, I can wear some size 3 kid's shoes). Guess if I act like my shoe size instead of my age-how 'bout a game of Hi Ho Cherrio...
orrrrrrr....
A round of DOND?

Now-I like the new info about the move of the taping of the show.

Can anyone post a link to that? I've been so busy that I haven't had much time to web surf.

Posted by:dollydeb | April 30, 2009, 09:54 PM

 

Jofus and Brenda,

Get out of our blog if you're going to support the evil banker and his mean tricks he pulls on contestants. And by the way, the future of DOND is very much in doubt right now. These few primetime episodes DOND has will see if the show has some life in it or not.

Until next time
Eric

P.S. Mad Mark, about that comment you made about me being a sycophant, I'm sometimes side with you Mad Mark and Andrew B with your contestant bashing however, I don't rip or bury contestants like you two do.

Posted by:Eric | April 30, 2009, 08:04 PM

 

As an East Coast guy, the move to Connecticut (as Brenda was kind enough to report) might make it easier for me to try out for the show, get on, and maybe win the $500,000 (daytime) or $1,000,000 (prime-time) top prize.

If Connecticut governor Jody Rell were smart, she'd throw a parade in Waterford for you. Not Howie Mandel. Not the models. But you.

You are the real star of "Deal Or No Deal".

P.S.: Make Brenda's day. Accept her invitation to attend her brithday party in July.

P.P.S.: Make the day for all of us. Slip some green pieces of paper into the hands of top NBC executives to not only have them renew the nighttime version, but to give it a stong timeslot this Fall, and to have it on every single week (except during the Winter Olympics) through the Summer of 2010.

You rock, Mr. Banker!

Posted by:Jofus | April 30, 2009, 01:22 PM

 

I have read that taping of both the daytime and (if it comes back this fall), nighttime editions of "Deal Or No Deal" will be moved this summer to a new studio in Waterford, Connecticut.

I've heard you own the studio they'll be using, and have a nice mansion (your East Coast residence) in the area, so you can keep more of your money and no longer have to rent the big Beverly Hills estate you stay in when you're in California for tapings of the show.

But you can still come to my home in Indio, California on July 18th when I celebrate my 40th birthday!

Having you there at the party would make my life complete 'cuz you're the sexiest man on TV!

Love,
Brenda

Posted by:Brenda | April 30, 2009, 01:16 PM

 

Thank You "NBC",
Just the beginning of shows to come.


One day there will be a "Breakthrough" on this blog. "Who Do You Think You Are?" Casting? While Mr. Banker is "The Philanthropist", even though you couldn't tell it by watching him on"Deal Or No Deal"show, Casting you are supposed to be "The Listener" of the people who have been trying for so long to be a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal" show for example me, Linda Caroots trying since May 2006. Remember "America's Got Talent", and some are right here on Mr. Banker's Blog. Mr. Banker's BFF's are ready to take that "Great American Road Trip" to the DOND stage to be Contestants. Then after we have won our Million $'s, at that time each will be able to say "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!" I went and had a talk with "Merlin", and he told me of a story that shows Mr. Banker's Bloggers might be the "Meteor" that hits the DOND stage way of a "The Storm". But untill something as great as that happens I am waiting with excitement for "The Jay Leno Show" and " The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" to come to my TV.

I saw what you did there, Andrew. Verry interesting. We have several ways to describe people like this, and they include, but are not limited to...

-Idiots
-Delusional
-Narrow-minded
-Embarrassingly low IQs
-Refuse to listen to the voice of reason

And the list goes on. For all I know, they're twice my age; some may even be old enough to be my parents, or even my grandparents. But what I find totally sad about the whole thing is that a 22-year-old (me) is more mature than someone who is most likely considerably older than than (the others), judging by the comments made here. Seriously, DoND fangirls, grow the hell up. There's more to life than this rubbish. Go outside and enjoy life. Stop sitting around and writing stupid poems that this figment of your deluded minds called The Banker will most likely never read. It's like you're worshipping a non-existant god. I've met fangirls / fanboys of certain things before, but never any who were as deluded and deranged as you appear to be. It's time to stop.

Mr. Banker, are you keeping us in the dark? Are you out there Twittering, Facebooking, or MySpaceing?
Because if you are let me tell you now:

This Tweet doesn't "Twitter".
I don't "Facebook" unless I am reading one.
And I allow no one to invade "MySpace".

Now I love talking on the phone, hey we all do!!! So tell Casting to give us a call. They know the drill, punch punch in our phone numbers, ringy dingy we answer, then we're on our way to the "Deal Or No Deal" stage for each of us to take our chance ( no not a chance ) rather win alot of your Millions.
Come on Mr. Banker, come back to your blog.

Read it and weep Mr. Banker,

Our tears are falling because your still away
Even though it really hurts us so
There is something that we have got to say

Hurry back to your "Bloggin BFF's"
Please don't waste another minute we're so blu-u-u-ue
Just tell us that you have thought of us
And make sure you tell us what has kept you away
Also everything you've said to Casting about us to-o-o-o

Aww, tell us your "BFF's" good story's of Ca-a-asting
Maybe how Casting is calling us so we won't cry-y-y-y
Just let us know our phone numbers are everywhere all around them
And paint our e-mails in rainbow colors on the walls to surround Casting
Don't let them let us slip away without becoming a Contestant
We "Deal Or No Deal" Bloggers could brighten a cloudy sky

Once upon a time those dreams might have been lost somewhere in time
If they do come true, we know your Millions are sure to leave you
And if you should discover posting again will make you blubber
Because you don't really have a good excuse for staying away
Just as long as you post soon and send your thoughts on home to your Bloggin "BFF's"

OH! NO!,

Late last night I was dozing in my office ( my recliner ) and I guess in my subconscious I was thinking of Mr. Banker's dark silhouette trying to imagine what he looks like. So I guess my fingers thought they could play being a police sketch artists, and that is what these silly fingers came up with. Hey, what can I say, but my fingers have a mind of their own.

Dollydeb, have a very happy birthday. May God truly bless you with many more years of life. I think you are the same age as Susan Boyle.

To Mad Mark: FYI, ALL of us blogging on this website have already applied for this show at least once, either through a casting call or by sending in a videotape. You must have not read all of my comments about me having attended that casting call last year on CJ's birthday at Salt Lake City, UT.

For anyone that's interested: I found another incredibly-talented British artist...his name is Paul Potts. He sings opera, and I'm totally impressed by his gift!! I really want to sing like that, but I can't. My talent is on the violin. Anyways, I hope you'll enjoy this video:

Okay, I'll try my hand at writing some poetry. Here goes

Once, there were some very strange, delusional people who wrote stupid poems to a non-existant being with the hopes of getting a stupid game show so that they could attempt to win five bucks. Unfortunately, no one cared, and due to their perpetual delusional state, the strange people had no idea that their making asses of themselves. The end.

I love that poem, even though it reads more like a story. Why do I love that story so much, you ask? 'CAUSE IT'S TRUE!

Oh, and Linda, I have solved Eric. He's a sycophant (look it up in the dictionary). Basically, he sides with whomever seems to be more appealing to him at the time. Sometimes it you people, sometimes it's me. Make up your mind, Eric.

Greeting,

Once there was a silly thinking Case27
Thought he would punch us with some slams
No one could make that Case27 understand
That he keeps coming back for "Banker's Blogging Friends"
Because he has high hopes, he has high hopes
Of being one of "Mr. Banker's BFF's", on this blog hopes
So any time of leaving and then coming back to this blog
Afraid of being rejected now refers to himself as M.. & M...
Instead of feeling you have to bash us for loving the "DOND" show
Just remember that there is enough room on this blog for all us
"Deal Or On Deal" fans, and we know your one of "DOND's" fans

PS: Eric, just from what you posted makes you look so wishy-washy. I think you do this because of who ever your talking to at the time.
Andrew on the other hand calculates what he see.
No matter what is said, you are fans of "Deal Or No Deal". And you know it or you wouldn't be on this blog taking in every wonderful post that is made. You post things just to get a spark out of one of us. I was saving my sparks for the "DOND" stage if I am ever lucky enough to be a Contestant, but I love to give to the needy. So here is a spark for you Case27. : )

Hello, Eric. Thanks for offering to pick up the slack for me. I've had it with this version and its countless flaws. Please make sure that you and Andrew rip those idiots to shreds. Give 'em hell. Also, if Team Delusional give you guys hell about that, stike back in the same way I would. Someone has to be evil around here if I can't be. Freedom of expression is a constitutional right, so run wild with it.

Speaking of Team Delusional, I have this strong gut feeling that your inane antics, such as your pointless poems, stories, and whatnot will most likely never get you on the show. So give it a rest, 'cause it's going nowhere fast.

*evil laugh*

I love being me.

Mad Mark,

Hey man!! It's good to see you again. Did you get tired of the primetime circus that was Deal or no Deal? Well, Billy Silverman, who was brainwashed by Howie and the models to not cancel DOND, decided to bring back the primetime crap he should've cancelled last winter. And by the way Mad Mark, I know that you don't watch DOND anymore but once there's an epic fail or someone pushes their game over the edge, Andrew B and I will take turns ripping the contestant for their actions. We're doing this for you.

Until next time
Eric

Posted by:Eric | April 19, 2009, 09:19 PM

 

Ah, yes.

The dawning of a new day brings about the same old delusions.

Yawn.

Seriously, folks, it's time to grow up.

The only way to get on the show is to attend a casting call, and not by posting things on this blog. Some of you are aware of this. Amen to that. But a select few of you still haven't figured this out yet.

The bottom line is, poetry and other assorted forms of nonsense will not get you on the show. Please bear this in mind. Thank you, and please, don't forget to get a life as well.

I'm still waiting for that call from NBC to be on DOND, just like the rest of you. I even sleep with my cell phone, lol(I think Dawn does too). Linda, the "cry me a river" song recorded by Susan Boyle is 10 years old(1999), so that's why it doesn't sound like her. Anyways, I hope that ALL of us can make it to this show this year. It would seriously be a SHAME if none of us did not.

Greeting Everyone,

It has been a lovely day here in Ohio.

Dollydeb, the thing Richard had posted wasn't a video. It look like a newspaper clipping showing a Pirate reading a newspaper that says: "Bankers are giving Pirates a bad name". Also the new heading say:
All-New Episodes Return
Monday, May 4 8/7c

Andres, it doesn't sound like Susan Boyle. Is there a video showing her singing that song? We all need to keep the ringers on our phones turned all the way up. Maybe Casting will make a mistake dialing some person they want on the show and we are called instead. Hey things happen : )

I'm officially a HUGE fan of singing sensation Susan Boyle from Scotland(along with more than 20 million others around the globe). I found another great song that was recorded by her in 1999, "Cry me a river". I hope all of you enjoy it, and I hope that DOND has called AT LEAST 1 of you.

Mark, even the U.K. version doesn't do DonD right.

Lisa's game and an occasion such as the 1,000th show are a match made in hell. This is Marybeth taking up residence in Britain and playing DonD again, on what just had to be the franchise's 1,000th show!

There was no excuse for her to deal if she knew she was not holding the 250K and would swap for it. What was she risking? And this is before I mention the offer was 50,000. She even acts like Marybeth....but at least she admitted she was a complete idiot.

Posted by:andrew b | April 17, 2009, 02:20 PM

 

Well, it looks like the biggest piece of flaming BS in television history is going back on the air. Looks like it was an act of desperation by Ben Silverman to save this network, as its rarings have been flagging. I imagine you people must be overjoyed with this news.

Hello, everyone. I was very impressed by this performance of 47-year-old British lady, Susan Boyle, on "Britain's Got Talent". This is one of the most surprising videos I've ever seen...it goes to show you that looks can be deceiving, and that raw talent can be found anywhere. I hope you like it as much as I did. In only 4 days, it already has almost 6 million views.

Mr. Banker, What's the hold up?

We belong to the "Deal Or No Deal" "Mr. Banker's Blog. Many times your "BFF's" have tried to tell you "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" we have waited for a new post for so long". Always wanting to be surprised, but once again our feelings are hurt by no new post from you. : ( Your Bloggers, your "BFF's" (we might have to rethink that one shortly) have invested so much time to your blog, because we love the "Deal Or No Deal" show, with you, Howie, and the Models.
To give you up Mr. Banker would be like turning our backs on our favorite show and shadow. Our dreams of being a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal" is one thing, but talking about "DOND" with you is another. We enjoy talking about the show with each other, but you put an extra plus to the blog for us. Come on, don't waste another moment "Post"!!!

Dear Banker: I have not heard back from you regarding the possibility of appearing on your show. You may remember I planned to put 8 kids in Lima Peru through college. Due to the bad economy, I have now been out of work 7 months, as well. You may remember my application, my song was set to Jimmy Buffet's "Volcano".

Now, I know people call you a tightwad and a miser, but somewhere in your life you have to pay taxes and one of the best ways to reduce taxes is to invest in people through charity. Soooooo...
I have an offer to make you Mr Banker. If you let me appear on the show and in the course of the game you add an incentive to any offer, or all offers through my final choice, I will give 25% of that incentive to a charity of YOUR CHOICE. That's right - SO LONG AS THE CHARITY ISN'T YOU. I will look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience. -- Nadine White

Eric, I did apply for the daytime, half-hour version of this show about 2 months ago. But I so much prefer the Prime Time version of the show...I miss all the drama, excitement, and suspense of seeing those amazing 6-figure offers pop up on that large LCD screen. And I want to go for the MILLION, even though it would also be very nice to play for the $500K in the daytime show. I will apply AGAIN for the Prime Time version of this show, once that opportunity presents itself...

Andres,

I know it's very frustrating for you that you've been waiting a year to get on the show, but here's my advice to not only you but also my faithful bloggers, please not only apply to the daytime version of DOND but hope it gets renewed for a second season. It's a whole lot better than the soon-to-be outta here primetime version.


Happy Easter
Eric

P.S. Brenda and Jofus, I'm very disappointed at both of you. Supporting the evil banker and his mean tricks. Go find another blog if you're not going to support the contestant and cheer for the banker.

It has been exactly 1 year since I drove all the way to Salt Lake City to audition for this show on Claudia Jordan's 35th birthday--April 12, 2008. Today is her 36th birthday. And I even wrote on my application "I drove more than 600 miles from Albuquerque to audition for this show" and I circled it. I feel like I've been lied to, because at the audition they told us, "It will take up to 1 year for us to call you to be on this show". Well, here it is...1 year of waiting. Why would they dare lie to us? It was a huge sacrifice for me to drive hundreds of miles to a city that I've never been to, into a state that I've never visited just to audition for this game show. When will these casting directors come to their senses and realize that I deserve to be on this show? When?

Good Morning All,

Just a little something for all to think about:


Just a Banker Man on a "Deal Or No Deal" day or night
Looking for the fight to hang on to the money in his life
In this world of wants and needs no one sees him, just a $ sign
They all say he's stingy, but hey, money makes us all crazy
The beat of his heart will match the beat of his checkbook
Changing dollar amounts to send you home early to saves his riches
All Contestants will dance into the danger zone against Mr. Banker
When the Contestant becomes the $ sign taker Mr. Banker gets busy
He can put you in a daze like a dream if the offer becomes the clincher
While you are thinking in those few seconds of what to say "Deal" or "No Deal"
Wondering what these words will bring at the moment they are spoken
The "DOND" stage is a place of mystery one of which most will never experience
For that life changing moment there's always a chance, it might happen or pass you by
It's a dream that should be kept alive amoung us who want this wonderment............

A Bowl of baked $300,000 Dollars wiil be savory
A Shaker of $50,000 Dollars for added accents
A Cassarole of $75,000 Dollars will delight the palate
And for dessert a $200,000 Dollar money pie

Hello Mr. Banker,

I was just thinking, keeping with the
Halloween theme you just might post
a new blog.
oooohho OOOHHo oooohho Shadow Man


Double, double Board to Millions;
Models hot, and cases hotter.
Mr. Banker the DOND Bank,
Inside the Cases $'s boil and bake;
Eye on numbers and picks to make,
Knuckles of Howie and head of shine,
Banker's call and Howie's question mine,
Your legs and lips and hands go numb,
All for a lot of powerful money no trouble,
Like a healty broth of Money boil and bubble.

Double, double Riches to Millions;
My checking full and Happiness dubbles.
Cool it with the cheering of the Audience,
Then the charm of my family feels good.
O well done! Howie will say with affermation;
And every one shall clap for my gains;
And now about my Daughters will sing,
And dance and cheer like elves and fairies in a ring
Make this Enchanting Story come to life like "DOND" can.

Hello Mr. Banker, and Faithful Bloggers,
Just wondering....hmmmm

In the year 2009 after reaching the 1000th posting
I'm wondering if Mr. Banker will bring a new post to life
He has taken everything we have to give on this old blog
And he has not given us (Mr. Banker's Bloggers) back nothing
Now it's been 5 months, we his "BFF's" expect something in return
We have cried out for something new from what we gather is the....
Halloween King wanna be!!! This proves money can't get you everything
Mr. Banker, Halloween comes once a year, face it your reign is for that day is over
Follow the light to your computer, and return to your blog to the brightness of our post
Your Bloggers enjoy conversing with each other, but you are the starlight to this blog
So bring us out of the eternal darkness of missing your wonderful enjoyable postings
We see you on the "Deal Or No Deal" show, but on your blog there's that personal touch
Your so close, but yet so far away, and everything you think, do, say is important to us
"Deal Or No Deal" is our passion, and you are the backbone of the show, and this blog

PS: Mr. Banker have you lost your backbone for your blog, or is it that you have no backbone...hmmmm?????

CONGRATULATIONS YOU WHEN THE WORST BLOGER AND THE WORST BANKER OF 2008 AND WORKING ON 2009!!!!YOU GET THE MEAN UGLY BROKEN GOLD PLATED PLASTIC OSCAR ON A STICK AWARD!!! No Speach need to except, It will be mailed to you.

My graduation ring came in yesterday...it's gorgeous!! It's sterling silver, has my university's name on it, has my name engraved on the inside, my graduation year, and my degree. And it's got a tangerine stone, faceted. It always helps to have a good college degree, especially in this time of economic turmoil.

Has anyone gotten that life-changing call yet from DOND? I'm about 6 weeks away from graduation, so I still need to be on this show to help my parents out. It will seriously be a darn shame if none of you(Linda, Dawn, Dollydeb, etc.) make it to the Prime Time version of this show in May. I'll be upset for you ladies if at least one of you doesn't make it to the show in the next few months...I'll complain to the casting department, I'll write to NBC, I'm willing to do whatever it takes for all of us to get on this show!! We need it now more than ever.

Andrew B

I hope the UK dond episode and the Manjit episode is not a foreshadow of Diane Jorgensen's
game when primetime DOND returns because before its hiatus, primetime showed it still has a pulse with Davon Clark, Brian Crowder (even though he got out early with the million dollars still in play, he still won $236,000) winning big money.


Until next time
Eric

P.S. Dawn Mays, why are you such a positive person?

Posted by:Eric | April 01, 2009, 11:10 PM

 

Not really. But Eric, we have something else that happened today that reminds us of Mary Beth Holtzheimer. The UK Deal or No Deal has to get their own Mary Beth Holtzheimer on their 1,000th episode.

With a double 250K game, the other replacing the 1K, the board eventually runs down to 100 vs. original 250K. With Laura and Alice both sitting behind Lisa, the contestant, the banker offers 50K in an echo of what would have knocked Laura out.

So with 19 and 22 left, she "knows" the swap should be made, yet deals because it's a 50,000 gamble. And indeed, the swap would have won.

How many times do I have to say this: HUNDRED. PERCENT. ODDS. ARE. NOT. GAMBLES! And I'm not even getting into the 50,000 offer yet...

If you say anything to defend your decision, you have just called yourself a liar.

The one good thing is that she at least called herself an idiot without me having to do it. However, this was so stupid it begs repeating. This is Mary Beth Holtzheimer dropped into Britain. This might just get Mark to snub even the UK version. It was that bad.

Here's the link if you want to (emphasis on want to!) watch the failure yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0AdnxkgyIE

Posted by:andrew b | April 01, 2009, 09:04 PM

 

My heart goes out to Manjit :( I honestly thought by saying she came there with nothing, she was going to go all the way, but I guessed wrong. She looked so stunned. She was so likeable.

Posted by:Linda Caroots | April 01, 2009, 08:03 PM

 

Andrew B,

Case 13 had the $500,000. Does this remind you of Mary Beth Holtzheimer?

Posted by:Eric | April 01, 2009, 07:30 PM

 

[AIR RAID SIREN]

ALERT: THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOLS JOKE. UNBELIEVABLE FAIL HAS OCCURRED IN THE DEAL OR NO DEAL STUDIO.


$500,000 has been sold for $30,999. The board was 30,999: 1, 200, 7,500 (it's a special case; whoever has it wins 7,500 if no deal is made, and doesn't affect the situation), and 500,000.

This is equivalent to $1,000,000 for $61,998. The odds are: 168,378 if 500K is missed and 2,567 if 500K is hit = 3 * 137,379 / 28,432 = 14.5/1 in favor. This is unacceptable almost no matter what the board contains or even if you need $30,000 desperately. This is a GAME OF ODDS, and these odds are better than typical odds on the first offer *combined* with the power of the safety net. If you can't recognize odds when you see them, just stay away.

(Any condemnation of this contestant is an exoneration of Lee by extension...)

Andrew b. your right, and so is Eric. All you have to do is watch the show that had the primetime Contestant Gary Gote, he just threw his money away instead of dealing when he had it good. And what about Oh! My! Gosh! that Na ylrae Aytog made me sick with so many good offers made to him. But, those two had such bad judgement not judging what kind of board they had.

Enough with the stupid numbers. They do not matter at all. Dirk was a legend, and was most likely one of the funniest people to ever play DoND. It's a shame things didn't work out for him in his game. And now, I suppose you're going to spout some nonsense about that statement too. Now that's just asinine. Get a life, number cruncher.

This - and many other things - is what made Dirk so awesome. So there.

Posted by:Mad Mark | April 01, 2009, 01:36 AM

 

I'm doing this because you simply no longer make sense anymore. Instead of slamming the people who deserve it such as the guys on the Idiot List, you slam contestants who did absolutely nothing wrong and who would in fact have been slammed for making the opposite decision, switch attitudes on the 1p continually, call for a show not to be aired for no fault of the contestant when LB's show would fall under this same criteria, and it would have taken all the fun out of Alice's game too, and just don't have evidence to back things up anymore.

It doesn't make sense to slam Lee for playing 46.3 to 1 odds in his favor, no matter what he ended up winning. If someone were to have those same odds: 10,799: 0/1,000,000, take the $10,799 and have the $1,000,000, would they be an idiot?

Consequently, what was different about Dirk compared to other 1p winners? It's not his character, as character means nothing in how intelligent the decision was. If h2005 had won the 1p, what would happen? If LB had won .01, what would happen?

We are different from the other players in that we know not to incriminate ourselves. Self-incrimination in some form or other is the only stupid move in Deal or No Deal. As LB has proved, bad luck in case picking is not a stupid move.

I know your principles, Mark, and I follow many of them. But now, things have gotten out of control and there are things I can't agree with. If you don't care, go ahead and not care. Just consider what the source of Deal or No Deal stupidity is for the future. Thank you for your time....

Posted by:andrew b | March 31, 2009, 10:06 PM

 

Andrew, the fact that you're lashing out at me means that you seriously need to get up and get yourself a freaking life. You wonder why I don't waste my time on this stupid blog anymore? That's why. And mind your own damned business as well. If you're looking for trouble, you will most certainly get it. This applies to all of you as well.

FYI another contestant, Dirk, joined the 1p club today. Just though you'd like to know. Didn't matter so much, though. Hilarious man. Told best jokes imaginable. Had funniest war dance I'd ever seen (now on YouTube). But I digress.

-MM.

Posted by:Mad Mark | March 31, 2009, 09:29 PM

 

Not Gary Gote, Linda. Poor offers and $10,000 winnings floors do not mix when you're looking for a deal.

Posted by:andrew b | March 31, 2009, 09:17 PM

 

Andrew b. your right, and so is Eric. All you have to do is watch the show that had the primetime Contestant Gary Cody, he just threw his money away instead of dealing when he had it good. And what about Oh! My! Gosh! that Na ylrae Aytog made me sick with so many good offers made to him. But, those two had such bad judgement not judging what kind of board they had.

Right now I have 3 poodles and 1 gecko and a whole bunch of stuffed animal toys that my daughter kicked out of her room.

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:

Dawn-how many days has it been? I hope you get the call soon. I think we both applied the same time-in Feb. 2007. Linda applied 2006. Dreamer Alive must have sent in the tape a long time ago, too.
And Jan and Kim and Shelley and Tickle and....

Okay, Mr. Banker-time to see the light-give us all the chance.

Linda Caroots,

I didn't mean bring your pets for pet lover's week on syndicated DOND. I meant when the contestant is chosen to play the game. the player talks about himself like the contestants usually do and when Howie asks what pet the contestant has, the player either shows a picture or the picture of the pet is shown on the Deal board. What do you think?


Until next time

P.S. Andrew B, You know something? With your top 10 worst deals in DOND history and sometimes player ripping, you seem to be following Mad Mark's footsteps.


Until next time

I see Mad Mark is up to his usual ridiculous one-way tirades again:

"Worst show ever, perhaps. Should not have been allowed to see light of day. Why they aired this is beyond human contemplation."

A) Are you saying LB's DonD show should never have been aired, as we can argue that it was a trainwreck despite the $10,000 bonus (which didn't stop you from slamming Ritchie Bell anyways)?

B) Explain why this show is worse than a "1p(athetic) win", which I highly disagree with the idea of anyways because almost all of them had no dealable offers (Dave E. and Matty being really the only two who had one pretty good offer).

C) Explain the difference between this and Janie Colosso, who you apparently enjoyed. Janie had the worst 8-case board ever to exist, and apparently whether the trainwreck continues or not doesn't make any difference according to you.

D) It was 1/1938 to have eight boxes be all blues. Deal with it. What if that was your game? LB has proven that the best people can get the worst luck. If your game goes in a complete downward spiral, with no dealable offers and continuous bad luck, that's no reason for your game not to air. If you fall under my Idiot List criteria, THAT is a reason for a game not to air, because it's something the contestant did, rather than something that resulted in pure chance. I suppose you think the "unluckiest contestant" from Australia is an idiot?

E) Go back to Colin's thread, Mark. Colin's wife wants to talk to you. I slam people only when I have cold, hard evidence, and the contestant has kindly provided it to me.

"What ho said the t'ing with the three "bonce", do not meddle with things you don't understand..."

Another thought about you Mr. Banker,


There are alot of times you do not play fair
Thats okay though, that's the umph to the show
You knock us down with your come on with a come on
A $ amount offered as an inducement, at times all in vain
There are times Contestant feel they've got you in a corner
So they think, "What's up with that?" Looks like Banker's worried!
We would love to see the expression of disbelief on your face
But that can't happen unless you turn on the lights
Come on Mr. Banker, let us see you sweat when worried
Let's intensify the "Deal Or No Deal" game even more
Show your facial expressions when you "The Brain" is at work
So turn on the light to your world, or post a new post
And put me in my place ( No I don't mean say something negative )
I mean put me in my place on the "Deal Or No Deal" stage as a Contestant : )

HI Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:

Thanks Eric-I often forget important names on Mr. Banker's list, too-so I do understand; I was trying to be silly.

Anyway-guess what, Mr. Banker-
my book has broken the 100 mark for ranking-so it's in the top 100 for Amazon for insect fiction! Woo Hoo.

Eric-I don't remember the episode you're referring to-is there a video for it? 27K-that is a nice win. (remember, keep it all in perspective folks-27K-think of all the good that would do)

Hope all have a fabulous day-my heart goes out to the folks getting the most recent fury of Mother Nature.

Dollydeb, you brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for being so thoughtful and kind.

Good Evening Everyone,

I don't know about the pet show. Now take a moment and really really think. Some might have dogs, some cats, some birds, etc, etc. Now that could end up being a show of dogs chasing cats, cats chasing birds, etc, etc. I would like to hear your thoughts on how the 22 people would stand their holding there cases at the same time they are controlling their pets????

Well Well Well Mr. Banker,
Mr. Banker is no where to be found. We know he is not lost, because we see his shadow on the day time version. So that means he does not care enough about his fans to respond.
I believe the banker is a cold heartless no feelings kind of guy...
Lets just go back over to Nick he cares he responds to his fans...

To Dollydeb,

I'm sorry I didn't include you on the list, but seriously folks, you should consider applying for the daytime version. And by the way, Dollydeb and all the bloggers out there, Do you remember Christopher Higdon and his hunting dog, Bentley winning a rspectable $27,000 in Season 3? How would you like to see a pet lover's week on syndicated DOND sometime? What are your thoughts on that?


Until next time
Eric

P.S. Let's count down the days until Diane Jorgensen finally gets to finish her game.

Posted by:Eric | March 29, 2009, 02:59 PM

 

Oh, Eric...
Boo Hoo, I'm sad. You didn't include me in that list. I'm still here waiting and waiting and waiting for Mr. Banker to call, too (just like so many others)
Boo hoo....

Actually, the person that has been waiting the longest is our dear Linda. She deserves to be the next in line for the call from our dear Mr. Banker-
followed by Dawn, Judy, Jan, Andres, Kim, Marsha, Martha, Andrew, Truckergirl, Dreamer Alive (I miss your posts), Oscar, Mr. Tickle, Shelley, etc etc etc.

Sooooo many deserving folks on here.

LB-btw, how have you been doing? Hope all is well for you. You are our inspiration. Almost time for your first anniversary!

Posted by:dollydeb | March 28, 2009, 10:05 PM

 

Hi Mr. Banker:
Don't forget to turn off your lights at 8:30 pm tonight for Earth Hour.

Wait a minute, looks like you've already done it.
Good boy, Mr. Banker!
You deserve a gold star!

Posted by:dollydeb | March 28, 2009, 10:00 PM

 

Here's something else to think about: What if the banker himself would've revealed his identity, walked down to the DOND stage from his upper room, and given Jessica and Tomorrow their $1M checks right after the game? The banker should actually reveal his identity every time someone wins the $1M cash prize. He's going to have to do it when I become the contestant because I intend on winning the million. I've done my research of all 4 seasons, and I'm confident that I can win an absolute fortune on this show.

Okay, this is the third time I've said this, Eric: She's going to win the million. If any other result occurred, NBC would have absolutely no explanation for why it took 122 days just to finish the second half of a game.

Andrew B,

When primetime DOND comes back on in May with Diane Jorgensen finally getting a chance to finish her game, are you and I( now that Mad Mark is done with the show) going to bury Diane or praise her? I look forward to your response.


Until next time
Eric


P.S. Dawn Mays, Linda Caroots, Jan, if you're out there, I know you ladies have been waiting ever so patiently for that call but consider applying for the daytime version. It's a whole lot better than the primtime one.

Hello Mr. Banker,

Mr. Banker you think your a real smart cookie
Like pushing the desire of a Contestant wanting more $
Example: like the Contestant desire in me being a rookie
If I am ever lucky enough to be a "DOND" Contestant
I wonder what temptations and tricks you'll offer and pull on me
Roll up your sleeves, because we'll get down to it, and watch "Linda Do It"
I wonder what offers you'll put into play to send me home with as little money as can be
I'll tell you what, if we ever cross paths on the "Deal Or No Deal" stage
You give it your best shot, and I will do the same, isn't thoughts boggling?

Hi bloggers!

BTW-Andres and Andrew-hubby and I like Millionaire, too. We agree-the time limit for responses is a great idea.

Gee, come to think of it.
If DOND had the same rule, maybe Mr. Banker would be history by now. He hasn't posted since November.

Thanks for clarifying that, Andrew B. I get the feeling that some people ignore my comments when I post them. How's it going, buddy? Are you already in college? If so, which career path will you take? I cannot emphasize enough the importance of a higher education...it gives you an unprecedented sense of self-worth, self-respect, and self-esteem and it certainly makes life much easier. You almost feel like you can conquer the world. I will graduate in May with my BSME(bachelor of science in mechanical engineering) and I feel like it's the culmination of everything that my parents have done to help me succeed in America. And I hope that I can contribute something significant to this marvelous country once I get out there in the corporate world. If you have a MySpace account, I'd love to add you as a friend. Just click on my name and it'll take you to my MySpace profile.

I think that all of us deserve our own economic stimulus package from the banker. So I'm still wondering: Why haven't the NBC DOND casting directors called anyone from this blog yet?? They certainly should've called someone like Linda Caroots or Jan Paquette, people that have been waiting forever.

They do that in Australia, Gerardo.

And recently, Millionaire has changed from a quiz-show DonD to a quiz-show Speed DonD. Good for quick games, good for weeding out stupid contestants, but absolutely horrific for yielding big money winners. Could you refuse 250,000: 25,000 / 500,000 within 45 seconds? The answer should tell you what is wrong with Millionaire now.

The banker is permanently unemployed, LOL. I've noticed a discrepancy between the game show "Who wants to be a millionaire?" hosted by Meredith Viera and DOND. When the contestant leaves the game, Meredith gives them the actual check of their winnings right there and then as the contestant walks away from the stage. Even Regis Philbin gave the "Who wants to be a millionaire?" contestants their checks right after they finished the game. Why can't that happen with DOND?? Why can't Howie Mandel simply give them a check right after the show, on air, so that we can actually see that they got their cash prize?? Just something to think about.

Everytime you post a new post you are spreading fertilizer.
Then if you mention any of us by name you give off extra sunshine.
While all of that is good, we need to be watered to make us grow.
So tell Casting to fill their watering bucket with our phone numbers
And give our roots nourishment to grow into "DOND" Contestants!!!

Generally, those top 10 worst deals are also the top 10 worst contestants, though I might have to put Tia Lampone onto the latter list.

Posted by:andrew b | March 21, 2009, 05:11 PM

 

Andrew B,

March 12, 2007. Hugh Neisler and Dave Atherton sold their million dollar cases for $99,000 and $81,000. Two years and a week later Julie sold her $500,000 for $33,000. Andrew B, is it just me or are the quality of these contestants starting to become more worse?

Until next time
Eric


P.S. Now that you've listed the top 10 worst deals, what are your top 10 worst contestants of all time?

And when the Contestants says Deal and is smiling,
That will surely steal the Audience and Supporters heart away.
It makes even winning Mr. Bankers money more brighter.

To Me Bloggin Lads and Lassies,
And Me Lucky Charm Mr. Banker you are forbidden to read this!!!

Here are a few things we should be aware of. Banker Leprechauns are solitary creatures ( Mr. Banker is always alone in his little shadowed space ) and spends their time making and mending shoes ( we need to get Howie to put a pair of his shoes outside Mr. Banker's door to try and hear the sound of a hammer ) In that room there might be a end of a rainbow where he keeps one of his pots of gold. That's right I said pots, because Mr. Banker wouldn't be happy with just one pot of gold. Remember he loves to show us even though he has "Million Dollar Mission" shows with multi million dollar figures on the Money Board just to show us that doesn't gaurantee you an easy win of a Million $ just for the thrill of it all. He's a smooth operator!

Andrew, I do not - and will never care - about useless math and stastics. They do not - and will never - matter. The fact that you used them shows your desperation to win the argument and also that you have way too much time on your hands. Case closed.

I am getting tired of this place. Every day, it's the same stuff - useless poetry, stats that don't matter, and false hope. Why not try something different for a change? After all, variety is the spice of life. Trust me on this. You'll thank me later.

Explain how Colin could have not been an idiot without taking offers stacked 4:1 in favor of the Banker. The 20K is about it, but I've already shown you why not.

Explain how Lee could have avoided being an idiot. Either he had a massive net with a weak offer, or he had really poor offers. The only way he could have avoided nothing was to take one of the following deals:

4,750 vs. 1, 10, 50, 250, 500, 5,000, 20,000, 75,000 = 2.65:1 odds against, with a 3 box game.

95 vs. 1, 10, 50, 250, 500 = 1.71:1 odds against, in a peanuts game, where only the mean counts.

2.49 vs. 1, 10 = 2.21:1 odds against, in a serious peanuts game.

1 or 10 vs. 0 or 510 = 46.4:1 odds against, and you're only risking 5.50 anyways.

If the player would have been slammed as an idiot by dealing and the board was then removed from the bottom (say the 1, 10, 50, and then the 250, 500, 5,000 were removed in the next two rounds, and the 75,000 was in his box), then they are *not* an idiot no matter what they leave with. A contestant cannot be put in a situation where they are at risk of being called an idiot whichever decision they make. I say refusing a coin flip to turn 5.50 into 510 is stupid. That's equivalent to $10,784 vs. x/$1,000,000.

And you have also posted to the contrary about "all 1p winners are morons", because you wanted Alice to go for it. And indeed, 13.3:1 odds in favor are certainly not something to be called an idiot for playing on. Not even zero as the other amount is worth giving up those odds.

HI Mia:
Welcome to the wonderful place where we like to be ignored by our leader, Mr. Banker. I believe the online application is still available on the daytime version. Good luck!

Don't forget-there is still another tentative taping scheduled for early April.
So, while DOND Prime Time isn't on air, it is still alive and kicking.

Posted by:dollydeb | March 17, 2009, 08:15 AM

 

Sorry, Andrew:
I lost track of the blog ticker. Or, could I be that I followed Mr. Banker's rule of bookkeeping-overcount the till and don't worry, the feds will still give you more? (sorry, with the latest bonus for AIG-GFN, I just had to say it)

Dawn, don't leave. We can still have fun here. And, please don't take Mad Mark's advice. Remember, his role is to keep the blog interesting (and I see has used quite a long spoon to stir the pot this time).

Mad Mark-I hope you continue to post, too-we need a critical eye to keep the bloggers grounded.

Mr. Banker-with or without you, until the lights go out on your blog (clearly they have been out in your head, whoops, I mean office, for a long time)-
I will continue to post.

Hi bloggers!

Eric: There is no longer any faith to keep. DoND USA appears to be done, as should be this blog.

Andrew: Stop knowing everything. I say they should retire the 1p, since it gets won so much. That player was an idiot. Anyone who wins their way into the 1p(athetic) club is an automatic idiot. No, I don't care about the reasoning for that, as it does not matter.

Dawn Mays: Smartest post I've read all day, besides Andrew's.

Dawn Mays,

Please don't leave the banker's blog. Look, I don't know if the banker has let been go or is on hiatus like primetime DOND, (I'm surprised we're even blogging on the banker's blog despite the banker not posting) but we as faithful bloggers must be positive that he will blog again and who knows? Maybe he'll apologize to us for not writing to us. That's my two cents in the matter. Keep the faith Dawn Mays.


Until next time
Eric


P.S. In the meantime, let's hope that syndicated DOND gets renewed for a second season.

Posted by:Eric | March 16, 2009, 09:23 PM

 

Another 1p winner, and you still think his game shouldn't have been played that way? So how could he have avoided winning the 1p? The 4K and the 350 were wrong, so the only possible culprit was the second 20K. But as James1978 says..."Yes, he was really stupid for turning down 20k wasn't he? Not with 100k, 75k, 50k all still there, not to mention 3 other reds and only 2 blues.....you can't account for luck like that,"

Also, what fun would Alice's game have been if 1p winners did not have their games aired?

Hi everyone I am really done with the Bankers Blog cause he is ignoring us so why should we even care to write him!!!!! You will find me on Nicks blog or on myspace .......

Top of the Morning to ya Mr. Banker, Casting, and Bloggin Friends,


Over at "NBC" on the "Deal Or No Deal" stage
Over the past 3 years for me, seem so long ago,
Me Daughters sang a song to me
In tones so sweet and low.
Just a simple little ditty,
In their sweet and loving way,
And I thought I'd give the world a chance
To hear them sing this song to them this day.

"Moo-la-Moo-la-Moo-la, Moo-la-Moo-la-li,
Moo-la-Moo-la-Moo-la, not now, don't you "Deal"!
Moo-la-Moo-la-Moo-la, Moo-la-Moo-la-li,
Moo-la-Moo-la-Moo-la, that's an Contestant out cry."
Often the Supporters look at the board and wander
Once again examine the holdings of the cases again,
To feel their giving the best advice they can give to thee
Watching the Models stand so proudly holding the 26 cases.
And to hear Howie's voice a -hummin' Mr. Banker's new offer
That might be the one that makes you feel the day is yours,
When the Contestants used their skills to beat Mr, Banker
Will make you rock as your exit the "Deal Or No Deal's" doors.

okay I tried the link again and again and finally it open up to it.

Sorry... this version just is not my cup of tea.

I will wait for Howie and the Banker and the 27 lovely ladies, see how I stuck that extra case in there? I'm partial to 27.

Thanks for the deal MM but NO Deal

My God... 900+ posts and you people are STILL here?! Geez, got outside and get a life, people. The Banker likely won't be posting anymore. And the UK version OWNS the US version for reasons stated here on this site: http://www.buzzerblog.com/
I've migrated from the God-awful US version to the much-better UK version. You lot should do the same. Check it out; you'll thank me later.

Mr. Banker, you aren't even reading these silly old posts anyway.

But, BTW-
one more blog post to go until we reach 900 (wish we had reached it on 03/03/09).

I'll leave that post up to another terrific blogger.
I'm all outa sarcasm (I did spend all day with hubby, after all).

Okay, who is going to post the magic 900th post?

Posted by:dollydeb (passing the torch to another blogger) | March 15, 2009, 05:14 PM

 

How many Bankers does it take to write a blog post?

Trick question here...it can't be done. They don't know how to use a keyboard.

(geeeesh,
our own Mr. Banker doesn't even know how to screw in a lightbulb.) {{{grin}}}

BTW-2 more blog posts to go.

Writing a new blog post.

so easy even a caveperson can do it.

But, sadly, too difficult for Poor Poor Mr. Banker

BTW-3 more posts to go.

Whoops, Andrew, I'm sorry. I misspoke. The former post was for you. Yes, I do understand how Mr. Banker can take sooooo long to create a new post.

BTW-4 more posts to go.

Posted by:dollydeb | March 15, 2009, 05:05 PM

 

Eric:
I truly believe that Mr. Banker is still writing his first blog, even 7 months later.

After all, it DOES take a long time to carve pictures into a stone tablet. Mr. Banker is older than dirt, after all-he hasn't learned to use pen and paper yet, let alone the computer (his intern is the one that types these things, right?)

BTW-only 5 more posts until we reach the 900 mark!

Posted by:dollydeb | March 15, 2009, 05:03 PM

 

Good Morning Mr Banker, Howie, Ladies, producers, and my favorite; The Bankers' Bloggers!

Good Morning Everyone,

There are many ways to say:

Good Morning, Buongiorno, Buenos das, Bonjour, Καλημέρα, Guten Morgen, Goedemorgen, Bom dia, Доброе утро. You could go on forever, and ever, but you get my drift.

Since it is Sunday I also want to quote Tevye from "Fiddler on the Roof" "Good Sabbath". I love that play!!! I love when he sings "If I were a rich man, Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum, but I have my own version: "If I were a rich woman, yes oh yes, hmm hmm hmm, YEAH!!!

I say Happy Sunday Everyone.

Oh, shut up. He is *not* still writing. It's been seven months now. Even here, it's only been four months since the last post.

So there's your answer as to where the banker is...out of work or something like that.

Morning Mr. Banker, and All,

Your a smooth operator Mr. Banker. You have proven that "Out of sight, out of mind" means nothing. If it were true we wouldn't still be on this blog asking you for a new post. Your living in the past, SNAP OUT OF IT !!! Halloween is over, yes I said over, but not having a new post from you is scary.

Good Afternon Mr. Banker, and fellow Bloggers,


Some people say Mr. Banker is made out of money
And a Contestant is made out of guts and commitment
Guts and commitment and sticking it out to the very end
With a mind that's strong and a commitment that's stronger
You can beat the Banker at the "Deal Or No Deal" game
You have 26 cases in front of you, what do you get
Another numbered case to pick and wondering what it is
Howie tell me what it is, because I don't want to look
I hope it's a large dollar amount, let's say One Million $'s
Because spending the money will help the economy out
If you ever see me on the "Deal Or No Deal" stage
Mr. Banker you better be ready, because I aim to win big

I see why you're a UK fan, Mark...AlicecoughAlice.

These contestants actually have some occasional bravery enough to sock it to the banker when he pinches pence with 10-1 pot odds, or even worse, offers. (Read: 17,500 vs. .01/250,000.

And also read, Mark: 5.50 vs. 0/255. I want to know how Lee could have avoided being a moron during his game.)

For your information, other bloggers, the player dealt earlier at the 17.5 and could pay the 17.5 to take their box when the final two was reached. She won (!) And no spoilers from Channel 4!

Greeting Mr. Banker, All at "NBC", and Bloggin Friends,

Way out west in Culver City, CA
They're getting ready at "NBC".
For the "Deal Or No Deal" show, the rush is on.
Mr. Banker left his dark shadowed office,
To meet Scott St. John, Howie, and Models too.
They crossed the "Deal Or No Deal" stage where excitement awaits.
Below that stage down the stairs is where the Audience will reside.
Remembering that the "Deal Or No Deal" Box will be waiting,
Where the Contestants will be standing, big things are going to start happening.
Way out west in Culver City, CA
They're getting ready at "NBC".

I've also discovered that the second run contained a player who swapped 250K for 500K (!), and then sold out that 500K when the net went away.

Now I know some of you are experienced viewers of DDonD...haven't you seen a lot of contestants refuse to open their first case? Yet another close call. This is getting ridiculous...we continue to select the wrong contestants whenever the chances at 500,000 turn up, even if half or more of the contestant pool would have played it right. Multiply those mounds of 3/4, 4/5, and 2/3 chances together and you'll understand why DonD is full of DENSA members. It should have been won by now!

Posted by:andrew b | March 12, 2009, 12:00 PM

 

Whoa...we made a huge mistake. The $300 was already out when the 98K was offered, which means the boards were 37K vs. 25, 100, 300, 500K (ridiculous...) and 98K vs. 25, 100, 500K (okay, maybe less ridiculous, but this is what is wrong with the daytime version aside from the contestants...)

So my former greedy assessment changes massively.

Posted by:andrew b | March 12, 2009, 11:47 AM

 

No, they ran into the 500K after refusing that 98K offer....or were you talking about the 50K/75K/500K net selloff?

Posted by:andrew b | March 12, 2009, 11:16 AM

 

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:

Mad Mark-you must be a great salesman because you convinced me to not only watch today's episodes, but tape them in case I miss anything.

Hi bloggers-I'm still busy trying to get our house ready to go on the market-lots of painting, lots of cleaning, lots of fretting.

Hope all is well with you, Mr. Banker. If you need any part time work (since obviously you are no longer on the DOND payroll), I need someone high up to reach the vaulted ceilings. I can't pay you, of course, but I'd be happy to fix you a homecooked dinner.

Hi bloggers!

Posted by:dollydeb | March 12, 2009, 09:43 AM

 

What? Another freakin' $500K selloff? That's it, I'm done with US DoND. I'm a UK version fan now. I've been one for a while already. They do DoND right. Plus, they don't have morons as contestants.

I've been told something that is both interesting and controversial is supposed to happen on tomorrow's (March 12th) show. More news to follow...

-Mad Mark.

Posted by:Mad Mark | March 12, 2009, 02:25 AM

 

andrew b, I agree whole heartily.

Good nite all.

Posted by:Linda Caroots | March 11, 2009, 11:30 PM

 

I have a rare greedy card to play on Kate Highland today...after the offer got to "normal" territory with the 98K, that was it for me, although it definitely wouldn't have been without some mulling over.

(Needless to add, 25, 100, 300, 500K vs. 98K leads to massive 6-digit explosion. Why is it the people who are determined to get it [= Marceia] even without a net lose, but the people who won't even use the net are the ones that had it?)

Posted by:andrew b | March 11, 2009, 08:47 PM

 

(Yeah, I went ahead and looked at it and saw nothing, but I wasn't going to spoil it...)

Wha...? I've got to go check out this guy's video...


Well, not a single mention of the gameplay. Therefore, he must really hate himself or something.

RULE 1 OF DEALING: If you can't justify your move assuming the game goes perfectly after the deal, don't make it.

And the guy didn't even have the $250K, and he can't justify his move. What does that tell you? I don't even have to look at the gameplay for it...

Posted by:andrew b | March 11, 2009, 09:56 AM

 

Okay, so I went to look at the video dated March 29th, and all I found was a post-game interview of some guy named Ryan Reed who won $22,000. Thus, he is most definitely not the jackpot winner. In fact, due to recent stupidity, I am convinced that there will never be one. Further research has shown that the date on that video wrong, and he is actually the 03 / 02 winner rather than the 03 / 20 one. They must have accidentally reversed the digits in the date when they posted. Here's the proof: http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/1/31/718456/Syndicated%20Deal%20or%20No%20Deal/March%202,%202009.doc
Like some of his predecessors, he too is an idiot, and if you follow that link, you'll see why. He engaged in some absolutely atrocious game play. He literally threw thousands of dollars away, like so many before him have. I really hope this version gets the axe, because the contestants are way too stupid, and have no idea what they are doing.

Hello Mr. Banker, and my Bloggin Friends,

I tossed and turned last night, because I had a dream that was so exciting!!! It's coming back to me little by little. It seems like it was in 3 parts. So I am going to try and start at the beginning. So here is part:

1 of 3:

It starts with my Daughters being so happy that they started dancing like crazy, because I finally got the life changing call we have all been dreaming about to be Contestants on "Deal Or No Deal". Let me get my ear camcorder that I wear to tape my dreams, and I'll show you. I can't wait to see it, because then I won't have to use my brain to try and remember it : )

andrew b, are you talking about the March 20th date?

Posted by:Linda Caroots | March 10, 2009, 12:03 PM

 

Now on the good side of things, I went to dealornodealtv.com to see if I could get this guy's interview (because I can't quite call him stupid if I don't see his "reason" for dealing, and I can of course shoot it down), and though he's not there yet, instead on the "Contestant Interviews", there's one interview from a future date. (I won't spoil the exact date, but it's coming soon.)

Could this be Ye Olde $500K Winnar?

Posted by:andrew b | March 10, 2009, 11:48 AM

 

I read about that....sigh. He had 500K, 75K and 50K, plus 5K as the lowest amount, and quit out with 85K. Then the 5K and the 50K were thrown out, leaving 75K/314K (!)/500K, and he finally had the 500K.

What was this guy afraid of with nothing less than $5,000 winnable though only if he removes all three of the other amounts and an offer that works out to 54% of the $157,500 average? Basically, the offer only goes down if he removes the 500K, and then only to about 35K. It goes up by almost double that if anything else goes away. In fact, it went up to 203K after the resultant 5K case.

That is now the fourth time that $500,000 was going to be won by any half-decent player out of only seven times on the podium. On the primetime version, it's only happened once out of 19 (counting the 2M and 3M sales) with Tommy Nolton.

How much (read: little) IQ do these daytime players have to have such vastly different statistics?

Posted by:andrew b | March 10, 2009, 11:39 AM

 

Morning All,

Oh Eric, you are so right! I do watch the daytime version everyday. Yesterdays show was so great the way the board was going for the Firefighter, but my heart broke when it was found that he had the $500,000 case. He still had a good win though. I still don't understand about the first offer of $5.00 by Mr. Banker, unless he was trying to be funny. I didn't laugh.
And last weeks show I think on Thursday the lady named Monasol (well something like that) also had the $500,000 case, but she didn't go all the way though. Even though we are not the one on the stage as a Contestant you still feel the pain for them not winning that big amount of money.
I still can't hardly wait for the Primetime "Deal Or No Deal" to return! I love the actions of the Supporters, and sometimes they really surprise you.
I think the Banker likes to see how long we will endure without a new post from him.
I think he is posting as one of us, or that's just probably wishful thinking on my part :) Eric is it you??? Just joking, or am I? Ha ha ha

To all of my faithful bloggers,

I don't know what the banker is up to these days. Like the primetime version of DOND, he's probably on hiatus. We all should be watching the much better version called the half-hour DOND. That will take our minds off the banker's non-posting. By the way, this week's episodes are about firefighters playing to win that $500,000. Don't forget that firefighters are the true heroes in case you forgot on a late summer day in 2001.


Until next time
Eric

Hello Casting Dept., (in case your reading Mr. Banker's blog, and Mr. Banker (sometimes you have to take a back seat),

This is my wish for the next shooting star I see, but until that happens if I put a number 5 candle for the month of May, and the numbers 2 0 0 6 for the year that I started trying to become a Contestant, on a cupcake and light then and then blow them out, do you think my wish might come true?


I want to catch a train at the railway station
Culver City, CA would be my destination
On my way to a Contestants one night stand
With my suitcase and number choices in my hand
And with every stop the train makes, I might change my number plan
For a better chance at winning a Million Dollars from Banker man

Everyday my wildest dreams is an endless stream
Of my Daughters and how I would love to help fulfill their dreams
I hope the "Deal Or No Deal" cases numbers won't look all the same to me
Meeting the Models and Howie, and taking on the Banker will be such a treat
And everyones faces in the Audience that I see
Reminds me that I long to be

When I get home I will sing my songs again
I'll play the "DOND" game over and over and pretend
The Banker wants to win a rematch so he can try to beat me
In shades of green he will be, with empty pockets with only change to see
He's going to need his own supportes to comfort him,
Because of the new Million Dollar Winner Me!!!!

Then after my 60 minutes of fame and winnings are over
I'll be happy when I'm Ohio bound
Yes, I'll be glad when I'm Ohio bound
Home, where mine and my Daughter's lives are waiting
Home, where the music in my head is always playing
Home, where my dog lies waiting silently for me

Good Afternoon (Still out to lunch) Mr. Banker,

Even though your the one that makes the "Deal or No Deal" show go round and round, it isn't always about you on this blog. KUDOS to "NBC".


One of Howie's "Deal Or No Deal" sayings has more than one meaning. It also says something about "NBC's" television shows it brings forth for our veiwing pleasures starting with my favorite "Deal Or No Deal".


O - Outstanding

P - Preformances

E - Exceed's

N - "NBC"


T - The

H - Height of

E - Excellence


C - Creative

A - Absolutely

S - Sensational

E - Entertainment

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:

Dreamer Alive-if you are referring to a Blogger episode of DOND, then I say YES!

How 'bout it, Mr. Banker-do you think you can handle all your bloggers at once?

Good Afternoon Mr. Banker, and Bloggin Friends,

A little note for you Mr. Banker:

I and the rest of your "BFF"s" are not here only for your entertainment
You should really surprize us with a new Mr. Banker's post tonight
Just stop and take a second and think
We just want to play the "Deal or No Deal" game
And bring a Million Dollars or two into our lives
Even though we have lives way before you walked into our lives
We know it will feel like it's over before it begins
If we are ever lucky enough to become Contestants
Keep your change just give us the paper money
One day it will just be you and I upon that "DOND" stage (hopeing)
You'll be out of luck when you have to face any of your faithfull Bloggers
You can say what you want to Howie, I'm sure your offer's will really amuse us

Did you ever wanna team up with great expectations?

Posted by:Dreamer Alive | March 05, 2009, 05:23 AM

 

Mr. Banker-
you have slipped again.

Altho Nick had ignored us for the entire month of Feb. He has posted again.

And you??? NOT!

Dawn, Linda, Jan, Judy, Marsha, Kim, Shelley, Martha, Andres, Eric, Mad Mark, Dreamer Alive, Andrew, Richard, Lisa (the newbie) and ALL the rest.....

maybeeeeee we should consider devoting our attention to a blog host that posts (aka Nick)

BTW, bloggers-since Nick DID post, does that confirm that DOND is taping once again???

Hello Mr. Banker, and Bloggin Friends,

Since I don't (0)-(0) see a new post from you yet, your going to share a post I just sent to, yes it's your rival Nick, Nickolas's Blog. I just love the name Nickolas, don't you? What's your first name?

Hello Nickolas,

When I read your post I was a little confused, and that is rare for me. I didn't know if you were saying you wanted me to
come up with something or not, but you were right to bet that I would do it.
You hit a good note though. I am related to the Greek Goddess Mnemosyne, the name of the goddess of memory. Ahhh, I remember her well. Get it "remember" : ) Ha Ha Just a little pun : )


Make A Call, Howie

Last night as I went to bed about a half past ten
There was thoughts running through my mind
I thought I knew excatly what I have always wanted
I tried to relax so I could go to sleep, but I ain't no fool
Let me tell you what happened then, I thought of a plan
I packed some clothes and headed for Culver City, CA
And I ain't coming back home till I try to be "DOND" Contestant again
When I find Howie Mandel my journey will begin, and to him I'll say:

So make a phone call Howie, make it to Mr. Banker, he's the Money Man
Say I will be taking him to the cleaners, going to win a lot of money, to help enrich my life
So make a phone call Howie, make it to Mr. Banker, he's the Money Man
Send a copy to my Daughters, I've got to let them know, Banker's money will help enrich our lifes

You've been many things but most of all a good Banker TV personality to me
And it's times like this I feel you've are my shining star that will bring good luck to me
Was I wrong to work day and night to try to become a "Deal Or No Deal" Contestant
All work and play just might give me an easier life, and go to my favorite restaurants

When a person loves a TV show like "Deal Or No Deal" it's not hard to understand
That I would find more pleasure on "NBC" than on a TV show that has another brand
I have always noticed how Mr. Banker offers can seem mean to you and to me
It just so happens that is what makes the "Deal Or No Deal" show interesting to me
I'm free tonight and every night so how about making me a "DOND" Contestant
Would you like to share that special phone call with me?

So make a phone call Howie, make it to Mr. Banker, he's the Money Man
Say I will be taking him to the cleaners, going to win a lot of money, to help enrich my life
So make a phone call Howie, make it to Mr. Banker, he's the Money Man
Send a copy to my Daughters, I've got to let them know, Banker's money will help enrich our lifes

Oooh, Judy!

Happy Half Century! I hope your second half is just as good as the first (with an added trip to the DOND stage thrown in !)

Mr. Banker-you should really be wishing Judy a happy happy birthday!

Posted by:dollydeb | March 03, 2009, 06:35 PM

 

Well Mr Banker you missed my 50th Birthday Bash!
Boo Who, so did everyone else, including me. I wore my old granny dress,pantilumms, old frame glasses, and gummy dentures to work, only to come home to my son, home from BSU with a female guest. What a first impression I made...

Salutations To All, and to anyone in Casting this
might work on,


Opportunities may come, Opportunities may go
You just have to figure out what road to take
I choose the road to Culvar City, Cal-i-for-ni-a !!!

Green, green money goes to my head
Makes me think that it would be nice to have
Green, green money it`s up to you Casting
All I can do, I've done it seems it wasn't enough
Because no phone call has yet to come
I would have thought that by this time, since May 2006
Thoughts of me would have entered your head
I guess I was wrong and I find that I guess
I am just one more thing to forget
Green green money you make me feel so fine
You keep me from the poor house all of the time
Green green money you make me feel so grand
I feel like a million dollars when your just in my hand
Green green money you make me feel so glad
Any time I see I have none it makes me feel bad
Green green money you give me a whole lot of zing
A whole lot of zing lets me do a lot good and needy things
When I get to be a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal"
Mr. Banker's money I will win, on my face a big grin
Green green money I am going to hold on to you
Hold on to you because I know what you can do
Green green money getting the call is always on my mind
When ever Casting rings my phone I`ll surely find
I`ll surely find my way to Culvar City, Cal-i-for-ni-aaaaa!!!!!!!!
Green green money I have loved "DOND" right from the start
Right from the start with all of my heart

PS: Casting this could apply (except the May 2006 that pertains to me) to any of us
faithful bloggers of "Deal Or No Deal's" Mr. Banker's Blog. We are "DOND's BFF's".
We're All For One and One For All !!!!

Our Mr. Banker


His hair is shadow black
His lips speaks out surprise
His hands reaching for the phone
He's got dollar signs in his eyes
He'll turn his jokes on you
You won't have to think twice
He's pure as California sun
He's got dollar signs in his eyes
And he'll tease you, he'll unease you
All the better just to please you
He's precocious and he tjinks he knows just
What it takes to make you "Deal"
He's got "No Deal" stand off sighs
He's got dollar signs in his eyes
He'll take you mind to a world of $ signs
It will increase your wanting more appetite
He'll make you look up at him on his throne
He's got dollar signs in his eyes
He'll take a shot at pulling a prank on you
Roll you like your his pair of winning dice
Until you take charge and come up craps
Which will make Mr. Banker turn blue
He's got dollar signs in his eyes
He'll try to expose you, when he trys to snow you
To your knees with the low dollar offers he throws you
He's ferocious and he thinks he knows what to do
Just what it takes to make you take the deal and go home
All the Contestants think he's a tightwad most of the time
He's got dollar signs in his eyes

Good Morning Mr. Banker.
Yes, I say Good. I always wonderful to have a new day that starts with a new beginning!!!

I hate to do it, but I am giving this blog a grade of C. C minor that is of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 !!!
( dum dum dum dum du, dum dum dum dum du, dum dum dum dum du ) its like kinda sad : (
The fate of this blog is knocking at your door Mr. Banker. You need to make a new post soon.


PS: It's getting lonely on your blog Mr. Banker. Unless you type very slow it shouldn't take you more than a couple of minutes to post a little sumin-sumin. Might your problem be that Bella thinks the keyboard is her bed, and you hate to make her move? Purrrrrr?

Just a little something to cheer us on, till we make our way to the "Deal Or No Deal" stage.

Oh, give me a Mr. Banker where his Million$ do roam
Where the "Deal Or No Deal" stage and the Contestants an Howie play
Where cheering is heard an Mr. Banker's discouraging words
And the Contestants are winning big money offers all day
Howie, Contestants, and Supporters upon the stage
Where the Models and Howie, and the Contestant play
Where big offers are heard an Deal or No Deal words
And Mr. Banker losing his Million$ all day!!!

Hello Everyone,

Well, isn't this delightfull. Dollydeb, ringing in the day with words of truth and wisdom.
I love it!
And it feels good not to be alone on the blog like yesterday. Where was everyone?
Aloofness is a word. It means: a disposition to be distant and unsympathetic in manner.
And that says it all about our host on this blog, Mr. Banker? It's like the wall built for May in the movie, "Secret Life Of Bees", we type our post in the little box and stick it on the computer hoping Mr. Banker reads it. Oh, but that's okay, Mr. Banker is worth it. : )

PS: I am using my invisible ink to write this so my Bloggin Friends can only read this. Sorry "Mr. Banker's BFF's" for that last sentence, but I am kissing up to the Banker and Casting, because I really want to be a Contestant one day. I have tried for so long, since May 2006.

Dreamer Alive:
My reply is a resounding YES! I totally get your question.

Linda-GREATTTTTTT analogy!

Mr. Banker-so many qualities here with your bloggers:
Patience
Creativity
Determination
Friendship
Thoughtfulness
Intelligence

etc.

And what do you add to the mix--

arrogance
aloofness (is that a word? not really, but fits)
mystery (well, that can be both good and bad)
unpredictability (unless you count your faithful lack of attention to your fans)

Okay, Mr. Banker-where are you?

Posted by:dollydeb | February 26, 2009, 07:51 AM

 

"NBC", Mr. Banker, Casting, and my Bloggin Friends,
What can I say, but it's just another day in the life of my crazy fingers.


There are "Fears Regrets Desires" in all the "Days of our Lives". Some may send us to the "ER" if we might feel like we are "The Biggest Loser", or to a "Medium" to see if we can find out what is to be, and feeling lots of different "Passions" which could send you to "The Chopping Block" in your mind.

On to other things. "Momma's Boys" just love to be out in the "Lipstick Jungle". Earl doesn't stand a chance, because he can't quit saying "My Name Is Earl". "Chuck" and "Crusoe" should give "Kath & Kim" a call, join the "Dateline" and pair up as "Couples" an go out on the town and enjoy the "Friday Night Lights ".

Personally I like staying in on friday and watch my favorite shows "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno", "Late Night with Conan O'Brien", and then I finish up with "Last Call with Carson Daly". Now that's what I call the "Land of the Lost". I am lost in pure laughter after watching these shows!!! Then after my shows I get a good night sleep which gets me ready to get my "NBC Saturday Moring" off to a good start, and end the day with a great show "Saturday Night Live". Laughter is always good for you. The "Superstars of Dance" show didn't last long enough for me, but hey it will return (I Hope). I am excited about watching "The Celebrity Apprentice" that will be airing soon, because the people that will be doing the show are absolutely fantastic, and will be exciteing to watch!!!

Now I want to talk about the two "Kings" of my favorite show "Deal Or No Deal". Yes, I said two. It takes Mr. Banker and Howie Mandel to put on this great show. Money and Comedy, what a combination!!! While your trying to win a Million Dollars from Mr. Banker, your having a good laugh with Howie's comedy wit. WOW!!! Watch "Howie Do It". Their my "Heroes". : )

Now I am going to retreat to "The Office" , which is my recliner in the family room, and I am going to play a little "Law & Order: CI" like Detective Logan and search for a new posting from Mr. Banker. I put out a looky-look order for him since he hasn't posted since last November 2008, and is like a "Law & Order: Special Victim Unit" person.

A Missing Persons Post Report for this blog:
Make a post on this blog if you have seen this persons post:

NAME: Mr. Banker
HEIGHT: 3ft. tall while sitting in a chair
WEIGHT: Nothing (a shadow has no weight)
HAIR: Black
EYES: Black
LAST SEEN WEARING: A black outlined shadow

Bloggers "BFF" (Banker's Friends Forever) believes fowl play (posting chicken scratch)
is the culprit. Notify Mr. Banker's Blog of his missing post if found.

PS: In case I am not at the Banker's Blog, and it's an "Emergency" go to "30 Rock" and relax, and have a laugh or two.

Good Afternoon Mr. Banker, and Casting,

You know Mr. Banker, your Bloggers are your garden.
Everytime you post a new post you are spreading fertilizer.
Then if you mention any of us by name you give off extra sunshine.
While all of that is good, we need to be watered to make us grow.
So tell Casting to fill their watering bucket with our phone numbers
And give our roots nourishment to grow into "DOND" Contestants!!!

PS: We are the BEST of the crop!!!

Until next time

Good Afternoon Mr. Banker,
Casting,and Bloggin Friends,

I get totally crazy thinking of "Deal Or No Deal"
I can feel it!!! Man!!! I feel like a Contestant
The best thing about becoming a Contestant
Is the prerogative to win alot of money
Picking cases makes me totally crazy, I forget I'm a lady
Complaining about Mr. Banker's offers, I'll be making a sad face
I want to have a good time, and win a Million Dollars in style
Everyone will see me and Mr. Banker in sparring action
Making the left side of the Money Board disappear in the beginning
Man!!! I feel like a Contestant. I can feel it!!!

PS: It could be like this if Casting would call.

Hey Bloggers:
I bet if we try REALLLLLLLL hard, then we can make it to 1000 posts before Mr. Banker's next post.


Wait a minute! It shouldn't be that difficult. Afterall, Mr. Banker hasn't posted since early November.

So-posting 1000 posts before the return of Mr. Uncaring Banker, should be a snap!

Dollydeb where is Oscar?

I just thought about him during the Oscar review of best gowns, they were spectacular especally Penelope Cruz' vintage gown. So much like Barbie, and Mr Rouke as Ken is his white Tux and a lock of hair from his beloved pet.

I wonder if Mr Banker would give us each a lock of Belle's hair for good luck on his show? He'd probably slip his own hair ball to us instead! Gross!

Dreamer Alive have you ever wanted to be a Grinchess, not a princess, nor an Ogress cause then you would be mistaken as the Banker.

I've just mentioned it, Eric. She has to win the 1M naturally, or else they would not have cut the game in two across 122 days.

Posted by:andrew b | February 22, 2009, 11:34 PM

 

Dreamer Alive,

Where have you been? Oh man, am I glad to see you? We need your positive influence right now because there is one big dark cloud hanging over America right now with the bad economy, rising gas prices again.


Dreamer Alive, How do you think Diane Jorgenson will do when she finally gets to finish her game on May 4 after a four month hiatus? I look forward to your response.

Until next time
Eric


P.S. Martha, welcome back as well.

Posted by:Eric | February 22, 2009, 11:10 PM

 

alright all ready, I will come out to congradulate Martha for posting. Martha Martha Martha the love of Mr banker boo's life.

I do believe Banker Boy has the crush on you and not the other way around as he said before.

Now where was I...I need to shout out

Oh yes Mr Banker...
I Hate You you saggy neck turkey buzzard!

Happy Sunday Bloggin Friends,

I was inspired by what you said Dollydeb.

Mr. Banker hiked on top of Old Smokey,
He got all covered with snow,
He lost his laptop computer,
For counting his money too slow.

For having money is his pleasure,
But parting with it is grief,
He's afraid of being a loser,
And Contestants on "DOND"
Out witting him and winning his money
Is worse than a thief.

He's in the sky alright Linda, or out there in left field somewhere. LOL! And I love your post on what to say instead of "That's alright". Well said.

Hello everyone else! I made it back! I'm sure most are happy. As for that Banker? Well I'm sure he's not so thrilled. In fact, I'll bet it ruined his day. Isn't that just too bad? Mine is just beginning and it's going to be a very good day indeed.

Posted by:Martha | February 22, 2009, 11:06 AM

 

Greetings again Banker Boy. I see you're still full of yourself, so I've come to burst your bubble....again. I know you remember me. I just wanted to tell you I've noticed even more about you over the past few months. Not only do you have that saggy neck and wrinkly skin, but your posture is atrocious to boot!

As far as you wishing you had a real adversary on your show, well, let's just say that it's your loss by me not being there....yet. Take note though, I am not the desperate one, you are. All in due time Banker Boy, all in due time.

Hope you sleep well. Oh, and don't choke on your food. Yep, you remember that post too, don't you?

Posted by:Martha | February 22, 2009, 11:00 AM

 

Okay, Mr. Banker

since folks are again posting here, I think it's high time you do the same.

Mr. Seattle Books-where are you?
Grinch? Where are you?
Peggy-where are you?
Truckergirl, where are you?

Mid-westies-hope you made it thru the last round of snowy weather-I think we've once again broken a yearly record here. Before the last two storms, good ole' Holland had 118 inches of snow.

Mr. Banker-maybe that's why you haven't posted. I heard the mountains in CA got tons of snow, too. Were you on one of your banker's mountain retreats?

Posted by:dollydeb | February 22, 2009, 08:55 AM

 

HI Mr. Banker-
And, Dreamer Alive, just like Dawn said....
a BIG welcome back. We truly missed you and your daily queries!

Okay, Mr. Banker-
Dreamer Alive has proven that while we may not post all the time-we are still frequent visitors to your wonderful blog (made wonderful by the bloggers. You? not so much)

Did anyone else hear of the new taping going on in March? Anyone going? LB-maybe you can be in the audience and be our eyes and ears behind the scenes.

Mayyyyyyybe-Mr. Banker and his powers-that-be will have the bloggers on!

A GREAT Lakes stimulus package for the faithful bloggers.

And Mark: Diane has to be the first natural 1M winner. There is no other explanation why the game is spread across 122 days just to finish the second half of.

And with the board she has, it's very possible that this could be it.

Salutations Mr. Banker,

We all are waiting impatiently for the primetime "Deal Or No Deal" show. Are there going to be any theme shows planned? I loved the ones that you've had in the past.
I can hardly wait to feel the pain and joy of the full hour of primetime "Deal Or No Deal" Contestants. Also I want to be a Contestant that feels the pain and joy of winning too. Can I get a "What What" from all that feels that way to?

Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Hi everybody

Sure is Cold in Indiana tonight, a little windy on this message board too.

Sweet dreams to all, Valentines Day has ended.

What's new with you Mr Banker?

Posted by:NameJudybnjudy | February 19, 2009, 09:27 PM

 

Dawn, I hate to disappoint you, but I am not one of the stat-mongers. I have better things to do than to crunch numbers that don't matter. Plus, it doesn't help that I am useless when it comes to math and statistics.

As for the carryover contestant, I'm predicting that she will win $280,000 or more. Things were looking fairly good for her when her game began. Unfortunately, I won't be watching because of several reasons which you already know. Plus, do you remember when the writers strike suspended the production of several shows last year? Well, one of those shows was Heroes, whose ads you can see on this page right now. I used to watch that show religiously, but when it went off the air for something like nine months, I lost interest in it. I haven't watched it since. Same thing applies to DoND. I'm glad all of you kept the faith, though. Your persistence and dedication to DoND both scares and impresses me.

-Mad Mark.

Posted by:Mad Mark | February 19, 2009, 06:23 PM

 

THIS IS FOR ERIC,

I must have over looked your post to me. Sorry!

I do not think Diane wins the MIllion I do think she wins alot of money.

The Reason I feel we would have seen the ending before now, and they would have advertised another Million Dollar winner!!!

Eric I just love the way you and Mad Mark and even Andres knows all the statistics and numbers of the cases that have held the large numbers!!!! Taht is impressive ..I have watched every show and love each contestant and the emotions and excitement of each but you guys are good with the numbers,,


Eric I hope the bloggers get the chance to play I would love to have you and Mad Mark and Andres there!! you three would make a great Support group!!!!

Hello Mr. Banker, Casting, and faithful Bloggers,

Just a thought:

Numbers are flying right and left of the "DOND" stage on 26 cases
One, two, three slides across our lips into the mic to Howie's ears
Audience is clapping and cheering, everyone feeling waves of joy
Your mind possessing number picking strategies for a Million Dollar Win
Beating Mr. Banker at a game he knows best, so he thinks
The Banker's Million is at our finger tips, call us Casting to be Contestants
Theres a show to put on, the show must go on, we need you, you need us
We want to feel the EXCITEMENT!!!

Good morning bloggers:

Question-
How many Mr. Bankers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

...answer-it CAN'T be done.
Mr. Banker is too busy using his hands and feet to cover his eyes and ears to avoid listening to and seeing our blog posts.

Mr. Banker-bad bad blog host. Remember, you gotta play nicey nicey if you want your future tarp $$.

Posted by:dollydeb | February 19, 2009, 08:00 AM

 

Hello Mr. Banker,

With your absence from your blog makes us wonder.

Mr. Banker, your Bloggers are looking forward to May's primetime show, what a treat
Wondering how you manage to stay away so long from your Blog is such a feat
Who will send the money when needed for the "DOND" show, gent?
Do you think that money, your Millions will just be Fed X sent
May's primetime "Deal Or No Deal" show is arriving without a money base
That special May morning is creeping closer, can't wait for all the fun
Wondering with your absence how your Millions might arrive in one of many ways
Mr. Banker, get Bella off your lap, and make a new post for the Primetime "DOND" run
Knock Knock, answer your computer keyboard Mr. Banker.

PS: Mr. Banker, you are the butter to our bread, the cornbread to our beans, the crackers
to our soup, the sugar in our coffee, the pork in our stimulus (Ha Ha sometimes I surprise
myself), and the missing link to this Blog.

How are all the regulars? Hope everyone is over being sick and if you did not have it hope you dont get it!!!

I am ready for Spring here in Indiana!! I am tired of the cold and the nasty weather!!!

I will check back later I have an interview this morning ... Wish me luck I need too go back to work!!!

Posted by:Dawn Mays 730-3130 | February 18, 2009, 07:58 AM

 

Fine, then. Enjoy the morons. I fear that if I watch the show, my IQ might drop several points. If you like oversaturation, stupidity, and gimmick abuse, then DoND is the perfect game show for you.

-Mad Mark.

(P.S., it's not good to steal other people's catch phrases. But maybe I should be thanking you, since I suppose I'm the most quotable person here. Always remember that there can be only one Mad Mark, and it's better that way.)

Posted by:Mad Mark | February 18, 2009, 01:26 AM

 

Mad Mark,

I know you don't care for the show anymore and you didn't want primetime DOND to come back but unfortunately Mad Mark, the soon-to-be defunct primetime showed in its last episodes before the hiatus it has some life after all.

I remain,
Eric

P.S. Watch Claudia Jordan on Celebrity Apprentice on March 1st. May 4 is when primetime DOND returns, I put May 6 by mistake.

Posted by:Eric | February 17, 2009, 10:35 PM

 

Eric, the answer to that question is a simple one:

I

Don't

Care.

You can enjoy watching morons win money (or fail to do so) as much as you want, but I'm not interested anymore. Sorry to burst your bubble.

-Mad Mark.

Posted by:Mad Mark | February 17, 2009, 10:04 PM

 

Mad Mark, Andrew b and all my bloggers,

When primetime DOND returns in May, the big question remains, Will Diane Jorgenson, who finally gets to finish her game after a four month wait, take home big money or have an epic fail? And by the way, the million dollars is still in play, unfortunately, so is Marisa. We all know Marisa's history of ruining players' games in the past. Will Marisa wreck Diane's game or will Diane walk away with the million? Tune in May 6


DOND fan always
Eric

P.S. On my next blog, I'll write my top 5 Marisa moments

Hi everyone
I see no new post from Mr.Banker... I dont think he likes us much!!!

Posted by:Dawn Mays 765-730-3130 | February 17, 2009, 04:24 PM

 

there was an old banker from "deal"...
who had no sex appeal.
He went to a madame...
who thought he done haddem,
And said, "I'm sorry, you look like a heel"

There was an old banker from "deal"...
with eyes as grey as steel.
His heart was as cold,
As ice, I am told.
I just don't think he can feel.

There was an old banker from "deal"...
Who'se temper would make us reel.
the dark would conceal him
Lowest dollar was at his whim,
But many didn't think he was real.

There was an old Banker from "deal"...
Whose moods fluxuated with zeal.
If he had to pay out,
his head drooped, he would pout.
The million took him weeks to heal.

Listen Up My Fellow Contestant "DOND" Wanna Be's,
(alias) "Mr. Banker's BFF's",

Please, If we are lucky enough to be called as Contestants.
Don't say "That's alright, that's alright". Those words come
out of your mouth, because your brain is in shock, because
of the large amount you just knock off the Money Board.

Say: Can you have her close the case and reopen it, because that can't be right.
Say: WHAT? WHAT?
Say: No! That can't be right.
Say: Goodness, that cuts to the quick.
Say: This just stinks.
Say: mmm, mmm, mmm, noooooooooooooooooo!
Say: uh uh uh did I just do that?
Say: I wasn't ready. Can we start over?
Say: Dang, if that isn't just my luck.
Say: Geeeezzzz, my middle name has to be bad luck : (
Say: No, I change my mind, I want a lower amount.
Say: I can't win for losing.


PS: You get the idea.

Dawn Mays,

I have to hand to you, you're a long time defender of DOND. (with the expection of Richard Dell's choke job. ) You enjoy every personality each contestant has and seeing them win big money. Dawn Mays, here's an interesting question, When DOND the primetime version returns May 4, do you think Diane Jorgenson will walk away with a million? I look forward to your response.

Until next time
Eric


P.S. Dawn Mays, on a personal note, I'm relieved your granddaughter's doing all right.

For Mr. Banker, Casting, "NBC", and the faithful "Deal Or No Deal" Bloggers,


Imagine there's no "Deal Or No Deal"
It's really hard even if you try
No stage or stairs are under us
Above us only Mr. Banker's room in the sky
Imagine all the longing to be Contestants people
Waiting for a show like "Deal Or No Deal" today

Imagine there are no Supporters
It's really really hard to do
No one to give you advice or to cheer for
And no excitement too
Imagine all the longing to be Contestant people
Living life dreaming for a show like "DOND" to be

You may say that I'm a "Deal Or No Deal" dreamer
But I am truly not the only Contestant wanna be I'm just one
I hope someday you will call me, and the other Bloggers an join us
The world will be so excited to see that all of Mr. Banker's Bloggers have won

Imagine Mr. Banker's "BFF's" as his posting possessions
I wonder and really hope you ("Deal Or No Deal" Casting ) can
No need to delay calling us to satisfy our need to be Contestants hunger
A brotherhood of Mr. Banker's Bloggers posting for this man
Imagine all the longing to be Contestant people
Sharing the "Deal Or No Deal" stage one at a time for all the world to see

PS: Just Imagine Casting : )

After watching Friday's Howie Do It, I have to change camps to you, Mad Mark. The naked person demonstrating the kissing in bed to the woman's husband should not have ever been tried. It didn't take long after seeing it to determine that Howie has put his entire self over the line, and not just his foot.

I will now erase Howie Do It from my DVR's taping list. Another Howie show that the producers zapped into trash.

Bonjour, Mad Mark! Comment ca va aujourd'hui? Qu'est-ce que vous allez faire domaine? J'aime manger la cuisine chinoise et la cuisine japonaise. (OK, that's all the French I know). Are you a Canadian citizen if you live in Montreal? LOL @ "Polgarian"! If you're half Hungarian and half Polish, then you're probably fluent in both of those languages. Believe it or not, CELINE DION herself hosted the French version of DOND in Quebec a few years ago!!! The videos are on YouTube, it was called "Le Banquier"(The Banker). And Howie Mandel, being the Canadian native that he is(he's from Toronto), also hosted "Deal or No Deal Canada" a few years ago. We don't mind sharing him with his own people, LOL. There was a great video of Jenny Monaco who won 215,000 Canadian dollars, but she had the million. She reminds me of our own American contestant Jessica Robinson, but the difference is that Jessica actually won the million.

I don't want to ruffle anyone's feathers here, but I feel that Valentine's Day is completely over-rated. What I'm trying to say is that no marital or pre-marital relationship is perfect because no human being is perfect, people will always have conflicts between themselves and everyone has his/her own character flaws in a relationship. It's how those conflicts are resolved that actually strengthens a relationship. I was watching the Suze Orman show a few weeks ago on CNBC, and it seems to me that the #1 reason people get divorced in America is because of a financial conflict. And it's funny that we take ONE DAY, ONE SINGLE DAY out of the entire year to pretend that everything is perfect in our relationships. I personally believe that the highest expression of true love is Christ's sacrifice on the cross of Calvary because he was the most immaculate man to have ever walked the face of the Earth. Christ is the very embodiment of all of God's attributes. Wasn't it romantic for Jesus to have sacrificed His own life to redeem all of us humans?

Andres / Gerardo, thank you for the clarification. I'm actually quite good with the pronounciation names and words, so I had no trouble getting yours right.

You certainly come from a very interesting background as well. I'm part Hungarian (dad's side), and part Polish (mom's side). Thus, I am a Polgarian. I was born in Montreal, Canada, and I still live there. I speak English and French, and I know a few words in several other languages as well. Just thought you'd like to know.

Best,

Casting one day I hope you will call Mr. Banker's "BFF's"
What ever happens then will be what's meant to be
The Million Dollars will be won by many of us you see
Think about it Casting, Mr. Banker will start to sob
Because he will see we are doing such a wonderful winning job

OK, I need to clarify something with all of you...my full name is Gerardo Andres Saenz. But most people call me "Andres" because they cannot pronounce "Gerardo" correctly(you have to roll the r's in your tongue, it's NOT pronounced "GeraLdo", that's more of a Chicano name if you ask me). Phonetically, my last name sounds exactly like the word "signs", it's related to the last names "Sanchez" and "Saiz"(all 3 of these last names are of Spanish origin). I am originally from Mexico, my paternal great-grandfather was from Spain, and my maternal grandmother was from France. I'm fluent in Spanish and English, and I know a little bit of French. I've never made an ancestral tree of my family, but I know that I have European roots because I'm not dark-skinned like many other Mexicans...people that were born in the northern parts of Mexico like myself tend to be fair-skinned. My brother-in-law is from southern Mexico, and he is dark-skinned unlike me. If you're interested to know what I look like, just click on my name tab. If you would see some of my relatives, you would never guess that they were from Mexico because they're so fair-skinned, LOL.

Hello Mr. Banker, Howie, and Casting,


There is something about the way Mr. Banker uses the phone to keep us on edge
I can't figure it out, it's something about the way he tosses money amounts around
There is something about the way Howie talks to the boss, Mr. Banker of course
So effortlessly Howie's words come across with the money offers and a few thoughts
The way Mr. Banker, and Howie shine is why I love "Deal Or No Deal" so much
There's no doubt they both are the stars of the show, well, that is until I am in command
Of the "Deal Or No Deal" stage as a Contestant, you best believe I'll keep on trying
To become a Contestant until I get that life changing call from Casting.


PS: Won't you call the "BOSS" ( Blogger On Stage Star ) ?

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers.

Since everyone has been on the topic of names lately-
does anyone know Mr. Banker's middle name?

I do-it's Mudd (I think he's the descendant of a somewhat famous man from Southern Maryland-just as underhanded.)

Posted by:dollydeb | February 12, 2009, 01:34 PM

 

Greeting Mr. Banker, and "Mr. Banker's BFF's"

Here comes the Banker, here comes the Contestant,

Mr. Banker, it's been a long cold hard winter here
Mr. Banker, it's been a long time waiting, almost 3 years
Here comes my plea, here comes a Contestant wanna be
All Right!!!

Mr. Banker, the smiles and bright eyes are returning to our faces
Mr. Banker, it seems like forever since primetime "DOND" has been on TV
Here comes Primetime "Deal Or No Deal", here comes the "DOND" Supporters
All Right!!!

Mr. Banker, it's has gotten warmer and the ice is slowly melting
Mr. Banker, it seems like such a long time since it's been clear
Here comes your "BFF's", here comes "Mr. Banker's Bloggers",
All Right!!!

PS: Casting, give "Mr. Banker's "Blogging Friends Forever"
a hopefully life changing call to be Contestants.

Thanks for the clarification, Andrew. I had no trouble at all pronouncing that name. I assume the G is pronounced like an H becuase it's a Spanish name, just like Geraldo Rivera. What I can't pronounce is his last name. Is it Sanz, Say-enz, Sigh-enz, or something of the like? Gerardo, perhaps you want to answer this question?

I'm watching Married With Children now. Even scarier.

Posted by:NameJudybnjudy | February 12, 2009, 12:08 AM

 

(His real name's Gerardo Andres Saenz. But in his experience, people aren't able to pronounce Gerardo, so he uses his middle name.)

Posted by:andrew b | February 11, 2009, 09:57 PM

 

I've got a random question for y'all. Mr. Saenz, you may want to answer this one yourself.

Why do you all keep calling Andres Saenz Gerardo? His posts are clearly signed as Andres Saenz. Surely that must be his name, right? Or am I missing something here? Can someone please fill me in? Thanks in advance.

Best,
-Mad Mark.

Hi Mr. Banker-
Linda and Dawn-great how you two worked together to get the BOLO out for Mr. Banker. I don't think he's MIA, rather, I think Mr. Banker is really MIiA.

Andres-a great poem for Linda. She certainly has been here the longest-and has stayed faithful and true to The Blog!

Mr. Banker, hope you got something extra special for Bella this Valentine's Day.

Posted by:dollydeb | February 11, 2009, 08:05 PM

 

Andres, I love it!!! Thank you. I couldn't have said it better myself. I am still hoping one day it will happen for all of Mr. Banker's faithful bloggers.

Linda Caroots, I know how much you like acronyms, so here's one for you:

L-for all the Lovely things you post
I-Initially, she became a passionate DOND fan
N-Nobody loves DOND more than her
D-Don't the DOND casting directors realize how long she's been waiting?
A-she Actually has a good sense of humor

C-she is very Caring about others
A-her elf video was Amazing
R-she Really, Really wants to be on this show
O-the banker's balance on his account after Linda's appearance on DOND
O-she is Overtly passionate about DOND
T-her co-workers think that her work is Top-notch
S-for all the dollar signs she'll be seeing when she FINALLY gets that DOND check from NBC like Sheetal Shetty who won $375,000 during Season 1.

As for the banker, I still see him around on the daytime version of this show. Unless that's an impostor up there lurking around in the shadows, LOL.

Linda and I have decided that the blog is now all about us bloggers we have taken it over. At least we answer and respond to each other!!!!

I saw Tia Lampone's DOND episode a few days ago on CNBC again, and I have to agree with Andrew B. and Mad Mark on this one...she was a VERY obnoxious contestant. She constantly gave head-butts to Howie(which can be painful), and she had the nerve to tell him, "Howie, don't cry". It bothers me when some contestants tackle, pick up, or head-butt Howie...like the time when Edward wore one of the models' dresses and hugged Howie(remember that one, everybody?). Or like the time when that female football player named Kimberly tackled Howie. Seriously, they should all just back off and respect Howie's personal space.

Mr. Banker, have Jessica and Tomorrow broken your spirit so much that you're permanently absent from this blog?? It's been almost 4 months since you posted anything.

Good afternoon Linda, Dawn Dollydeb.

Mr Banker is out looking for a job too.

My weekend shift will end March 9th and I'll be worming my into 1st shift or 2nd shift, which is changing as well from a 4 day 10 hour shift to a 5 day 8 hour shifts. Still don't know if I'll still be a Machinist @ class B pay or if that will be another level cut back. It probably will be and should be to keep us working. Sure hope the Mortgage payments drop in perportion as well.

You know maybe the retirement age needs to drop and allow full benefits to the Baby Boomers to open up more Jobs.

Still it's hard to accept, even when you feel it and then see it coming.

Posted by:NameJudybnjudy | February 10, 2009, 03:12 PM

 

Hi Dawn, finally the chill I felt is gone. Waiting for a new post from Mr. Banker is like being given a cold shoulder, and waiting for Casting to call for so long is like frost bite a little at a time, but to see no posting at all is scary.
So Mr. Banker and Casting needs to do like you and I did and really heat this blog and our phones UP!!!

But the snow is gone the ice is gone and girl it looks like 65 degree temp tomorrow wow what a change if only it was'nt going to rain it would be perfect for Indiana this time of year!!!

Posted by:Dawn Mays 765-730-3130 | February 10, 2009, 01:32 PM

 

All of the snow and ice are gone now. Now can someone tell me why I feel such a cold chill in this empty box I am typing in? Oh wait! I know! I'm all alone on this blog right now. Why? Isn't anyone out there? Mr. Banker, Dollydeb, Andres, Dawn, Judy, anyoneeeeeeeeee!

Posted by:Linda Caroots | February 10, 2009, 12:56 PM

 

I'm glad that the weather has improved for all of you "mid-westies". It's a little breezy, cold, and cloudy over here in New Mexico, and it seems like it might even snow a little bit. It seems like this so-called "banker" character only posts blogs when the Prime Time version of DOND airs. We each need our own bailout package from NBC, so I hope to see some of you up there with Howie Mandel and those 26 gorgeous ladies in the very near future. Some of you have been waiting a terribly-long time, so I hope that you will be FORTUNE-ate enough to be up there ASAP.

Hello Mr. Banker,

With all the excitement and feelings that "NBC" has opened
And all the worrying and assumptions we have made
Our Primetime "Deal or No Deal" bond will never be broken
All the true life stories, and enjoying the Supporters will never fade
And knowing it's possible my day faceing Mr.Banker as a Contestant
Is not as farfetched as we used to think, like the ant who thought he
Could move a rubber tree plant, because he had high hopes it so apparent
With exuberance, and lots, and lots of wishing a Contestant I could be

Good Afternoon Mr. Banker,

A little thought about you:

There's a Banker man and he has a dollar sign smile
Has a darkened hideaway up a row of stairs about a mile
Has a hot line phone to the "DOND" stage that's as quiet as a mouse
Until he alerts Howie of an offer he thinks no one can refuse
But Mr. Banker is in for a surprise when the Contestant decides to rock the house
With the words "NO DEAL"!!!!

Maybe you can carpool.

I bet you've been riffed-no post from you in such a long time. Will they rehire you when the shows start back up?

Mr. Banker, we miss you.

Hello Mr. Banker, Casting, and All My Bloggin Friends,

I've had the time of my life trying to become a "DOND" Contestant
We know our chances are resting in Casting's finger tips
So Casting take care of your fingers keep them healthy
Keep those nails cut as not to get any hangnails, which could cause
Them to be ripped off to the quick and make them become very sore
Which would hinder you from making those hopefully life changing calls
So let your fingers feel the spirit, and start making those calls for the
Return of primetime ""Deal Or No Deal". I have been trying since
May 2006 to become a "Deal Or No Deal" Contestant, and still trying.
Sooooooooooooooooooooo,
Get On Your Mark, Get Ready, Get Set,...... Go, Start Dialing!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for the information concerning primetime DOND. It'll be very interesting to see how Diane Jorgensen does when she finally gets to finish her game.

Until next time

It's official!

The prime-time version of DOND returns May 4th at 8 P.M. (Eastern and Pacific times).

Click the link below and scroll down to the third paragraph:

http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=7945

However, it could be pre-empted for a couple of weeks in late May and early June due to NBC's coverage of the Stanley Cup hockey playoffs, although I've heard rumors that this year, the hockey might not begin until 9 p.m. Eastern time to allow DOND to air before the games in the east (and after the games end in the west).

If the hockey pre-empts DOND's Monday slot for a couple of weeks, hopefully, DOND will be on a different night for those couple of weeks, then return every Monday at 8 through the 2009-2010 television season.

Thanks for the prayers and thoughts. Baby girl is still in the hospital and they think will for a couple of days , they do not know what is wrong except she is not eating or drinking, she is dehydrated and weak!!!! But from what I can tell from the kids floor of the hospital there are aLOT of little ones sick with the same thing!!!!!! our baby has had this for a week!!!

Mad Mark I hope you dont go any where cause you put excitement to the blog You need to look at it as though we are just kind friendly people whom can talerate all different kinds of critics and still enjoy thier company!!!

Good Morning Mr. Banker,

Hoping everything is good for you today. It would be a good day for all of your bloggers if you would make a new post. How's Bella?

Dawn, my heart goes out to you. Do they know exactly what is wrong with the little one? I will say a prayer for her.

Case 27, I just changed it. I think you have a desire to be a comic book villian, and your also just wanting to converse about your favorite TV show "Deal or No Deal". And there is no better place than "Mr. Banker's Blog" to do that with his "BFF's".
A Professional Evil Genius your not, maybe a Professional Live Genius. And the great Sean Avery, aaaaaa your just dreamin there.

Dollydeb, you hit the nail on the head.

Casting, where's my call? Let's celebrate my 3rd anniversary coming this May for trying to become a Contestant on my favorite show "Deal Or No Deal".

You are all a very strange group of people. I'm a huge sh*t disturber, and yet none of you seem to get it. Wow. Maybe it isn't worth posting here anymore, since every attempt to screw with you guys seems to backfire. I'm anti-DoND, and yet none of you are. Geraldo already wants to kill me, which I think is quite funny. Yet none of the rest of you do. Very strange.

Linda, apparantely I'm not able to get through to you for some reason. I really don't like the show. Seriously. I'll even take a polygraph test to prove it if I have to. I admit, I did like the show at one point, but ever since I discovered that there are, like, 258 things wrong with it, I had a change of heart. What I do like. however, is messing with all of your fragile minds, as my poem stated. You know, if this were the NHL, I'd be Sean Avery, minus the lewd remarks. Face it, Linda. I am pure evil. There is nothing you can do to change that.

Andrew B., I cannot explain the actions of Jay Garrity because I've never been up there myself, facing the DAUNTING decision of rejecting an absolute fortune just to pursue the $1M cash prize. I think that Jay was just trying to win as much TAX-FREE money as possible, and he definitely succumbed to the pressure of the audience when they told him to reject that colossal offer of $573,000. I personally would've stopped at $573K regardless of what the audience would've told me. I think it's totally unfair to judge these contestants by calling them "greedy" because none of us have ever been up there facing one absolute fortune after the next.

The problem, Gerardo, is that players such as Tia Lampone were stupid and obnoxious.

And explain why anybody, even someone who drove that far, deserves any kind of commendation when despite knowing that the 2M is gone and the 1M is completely alone, he claims the 1M case, then opts out because it's too much cash when A) he saw the board before he said it and B) he's turned down four amounts higher than "too much cash" already?

I've decided to ignore all of the comments from "Mad Mark" from now on, because everything he's said up to this point is absolute nonsense. If he claims that this show is a media hyperbole, then why is he on this blog?

He claims that the contestants are stupid and obnoxious, but I truly beg to differ. What's wrong with showing some excitement?? What's wrong with having a charismatic personality? Arthur Joseph from Season 2 was able to have a basketball court put in Trinidad and Tobago by taking a special NBA package offer from the Miami Heat, he's certainly the most selfLESS person to have been on DOND. Donato DeMarinis also was very interesting, with his patriotic sense of fashion by wearing that American-flag jacket that we saw during Season 2...he said that he actually did AC work in the same building in which he auditioned for this show! And the southern belle Holly Benefield won $50K and she made the banker wear her stetson. Anteia Greer was an excellent contestant, having sold her $400 case for an absolute fortune of $402,000 and she had the audience singing, "It's all 'bout the fro! It's all 'bout the fro!". Michele Falco, the $750K winner during the premiere week of Season 2, was the biggest winner ever on this show for a very long time until Jessica and Tomorrow came along. And I think I would make an interesting contestant, because I'm originally from Mexico, I have 2 musical talents, and I'm about to become an engineer. And I want to win that million-dollar cash prize if the casting directors approve my application. And one of my favorite contestants was Jay Garrity because we both have the same birthday(Sept. 24), and because he drove all the way from Boston just to be on this show. And he did win a very nice cash prize of $307,000.

"1. Getting rid of idiot contestants."

Sadly to say, that is simply impossible. You thought that the daytime DonD would be much better, but since we had those five bits of trash on my list, that's not happening. Meanwhile, even the UK DonD isn't free of its stupid players. *coughTolleckcough*

You just can't remove stupidity. But if you want less stupidity, NBC, you need to let us bloggers play. :P

Good morning Bloggers:
The sun is finally shining in MI! (woo hoo) and a virtual heat wave is set for this weekend. Now, to make everything right in the world, we bloggers need to remember that DOND is the best game show ever!

Mr. Banker-don't you agree?

Tell you what, Mr. Banker-if you don't want your bloggers to meet you face-to-face on stage, then post a new post.

If not-then that means you're okay with it and we ALL WILL meet you.

(hmmmmm, how's that for a challenge)

Posted by:dollydeb | February 04, 2009, 09:16 AM

 

OKAY BLOGGERS
Lets take a deep breath, and move forward Andres,Mad Mark is welcome , now we need to remember we don't have to like what everyone says , But we do stick together..I am on of the bigggest fans of DOND and I still count my days that makes a few people mad but I keep on doing it....Lets just be happy that our ( not Mad Marks) FAVORITE game show is back!!!!!!!

Andres, I know a thing or 6 about stuff too. Primetime DoND USA is messed up, and the only way to save it is by...

1. Getting rid of idiot contestants.

2. Getting rid of oversaturation.

3. Getting rid of stupid gimmicks.

Eliminate these three elements, and you have yourself a good show. 'Nuff said.

-Mad Mark.

Posted by:Mad Mark | February 03, 2009, 11:39 PM

 

"Andres: You wanna see DoND done right?" I HAVE seen DOND played right: Anteia Greer sold her $400 case for $402,000, Anita English sold her $1 case for $313,000, PJ Dykes sold her $1K case for $321,000, Davon Clark sold his $1K case for $388,000, Michele Falco won $750,000, Kimberly Chastang won $701,000, and Matty Sollena won $675,000. Mad Mark, your ignorance truly is incredible.

"Check out the UK version." I don't like the UK version, there's no excitement, there's no drama, and there's no suspense. They might as well do it at the Buckingham Palace if they're going to be so uptight about it. The only UK DOND contestant I like is Laura Pearce for her bravery.

"This is a free country, and I can post just about anything I want here." Wait a minute...I thought you are a Canadian citizen? As a naturalized US citizen originally from Mexico, I know a thing or 2 about freedom. I know that freedom isn't free, it was bought at a very high price paid by the brave men and women that have defended America throughout the centuries from hostile enemies. And I know that both of my parents have worked extremely hard to get me where I'm at...I'm almost at the point of graduating from college with my BSME.

Andres:

You wanna see DoND done right? Check out the UK version. They do everything that this version has failed to do - and they do a damn good job of it. This version's main problem is the overuse of gimmickry in order to generate ratings, and the stupid, often obnoxious contestants. The UK version has none of those. It's just straight gameplay with contestants that are actually quite likeable, for the most part. You know you have a problem when the best part of a show is the hosting, while pretty much everything else falls flat.

Oh, and last time I checked, this is a free country, and I can post just about anything I want here. Dissenting opinions are welcome on all blogs, and this one should be no exception. I rest my case.

DOND casting directors, Scott St. John, Josh Silberman, and John Quinn: LB waited more than 2 YEARS to be on this show, and I believe that many other people such as Linda Caroots, Dollydeb, and Dawn Mays have been ANXIOUSLY waiting forever as well. How long will you make ME wait to be on this show? Will you wait until after our house gets foreclosed before you realize how much I need to be on this show? What can I possibly do to be on that DOND stage with Howie Mandel, besides having driven more than 1,200 miles just to audition for this show all the way to Salt Lake City? If Congress bailed out Wall Street, then I say that DOND should definitely send each of us(me, Linda, Dawn, dollydeb) a good bailout package, if you know what I mean. It'll truly be a darn shame if none of us don't make it to this stage by the end of Season 4. I know that there are many thousands of people that audition for this show every year, but I think that we loyal bloggers definitely deserve our chance at winning $1M.

Hello Mr. Banker, where ever you are,

Did you watch the Super Bowl? It was a great game, both PS and AC deserve lots of Kudos.
Unlike us on this blog, by you hardly ever being around on your blog makes it hard for us your "BFF's" to make a Touchdown to become Contestants. Oh well, all of us will keep posting waiting for your return.

Eric, where was the advertisment durning the Super Bowl that mentioned "Deal Or no Deal" that you said would be on?

Dollydeb, Thanks!

Mad Mark (always case27 to me)Hockey is a great game. Football and Hockey are both brutal games. All players take awfully hard hits.

My God, there are still people posting here? Folks, the show is way past over, and the Banker is either dead or has been fired. Go elsewhere and do something productive. Posting here is kind of a waste of time, which is why I don't do it anymore. Have you people noticed that a lot of regulars stopped posting here? That's why.

Oh, and for the record, I hate football. I just never found it interesting. If you want to watch a good sport, watch hockey. That's what we do here in Canada.

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:
Dawn, I enjoyed the Escalade episode, too-but I heard she had to part with her car to pay our "favorite" uncle.

Mid-westies, hope you warm up and are safe. Boy, Mr. Banker-you should have seen the DC area yesterday, dealing with the itty bitty precip!

As someone said, the folks in the DC area need to toughen up-just like the mid-westies. We're used to this stuff.

My sister didn't have to teach for TWO days and my son's college classes were even cancelled.

Now, back to DOND-
Mr. Banker, I know you mentioned you needed a vacation, but this is ridiculous.

I love all the shows but a few stands out the lady that saved alum cans she worked several jobs she wanted a lime green escalade with hot pink interior, She won that by the way!!! the young jersey man I believe jersey he had the flag jacket or shrit he was all about usa and he loved Bobby and Howie was nice to bring Bobby out ( that is from Bobbys world)
The guy from Arkansas that won a dollar and even got a second chance and lost again that was just pure Hilbilly I should know I was raised in Arkansas (not dumb or a hick) I love all the different people I am not as good with the names and the satistics as you men are on here but I love seeing what each person will do thier emotions and just pure personality.

I will stay determined to be a contestant and fan for life.. What can I say I am hooked I love the whole concept of a show that has no real answers no trick questions no gimmicks just a shot in the dark 50/50 chance at a Million Dollars!!! How great is that!!!!!

Dawn Mays,

I'm pulling for the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-27 over the Cardinals. By the way, the last time NBC did a Super Bowl back in 1998, most of the models were either in high school or doing commericals. Strange huh? Dawn Mays, I have to ask you something since you're always positve and a DOND fan, When did you first get hooked on DOND and what are your top 10 favorite moments of the show. I look forward to your response.

Until next time
Eric

P.S. Did you know that another New Jersey native Bruce Springsteen a.k.a. The Boss is performing at halftime? I wonder if Marisa was a fan of The Boss when she was young

Chillin, just Chillin.

Hello Mr. Banker,

Something has been on my mind. Your little fur ball "Bella" hasn't been mentioned in a long time. Why?

Dawn, No grandchildren. It's just my three babies Laura, Leslie, and Leanne right here at home.
We live about 120 miles away from you. It is freezing here! Snow and ice every where. We are under what they call a Level 3. It means you can't be on the roads in a car. My family is happy because of all the goodies I have planned for the Super Bowl Party. Just like you it's the commericals and half-time I look forward too.

Hi to all my Bloggin Friends! Hope everyone is fine, and staying hopful on being a "DOND" Contestant one day.

PS: Dollydeb, I had to back up when I saw you posted just to say: I thought you were already back home, but I guess I was wrong. Make sure before you get on that plane it is defrosted. Give that sweet little baby a kiss from all of us bloggers. Be safe. Oh, I see you had Bella on your mind too. Great minds think alike! Ha Ha

Andres, hope your area doesn't get this snowy soup. Marsha, hope you are safe, too.

Good Morning Everyone,

Eric, I am keeping the faith. I am not going to let the past 2 1/2 years of trying to become a "Deal Or No Deal" Contestant be a waste. I wish they would have a commercial about primetime "DOND" while the Super Bowl is being played. What team are you pulling for in the Super Bowl?

Dawn, It was nice Eric posted. It was getting lonely on the blog. You have the right idea about being determined to be a Contestant. I bet Dollydeb will have a tuff time tearing herself away from her grandson. He looks so sweet in the picture she posted. What team are you pulling for in the Super Bowl?

We have have alot of snow here in Ohio since yesterday, and exspecting alot more too!!! Snow wouldn't keep me from going to California to be a "DOND" Contestant if I got a call from Casting.

PS: GO!!! Arizona Cardinals? or Pittsburgh Steelers? Will the Birdies droppings bring down the Steelers? or Will the Steelers scorch the Birdies feathers for a win?

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:

Mr. Banker, I just want to say that you missed the opportunity to meet the best DOND pet contestant ever.

My beautiful dachshund, Casey, crossed Rainbow Bridge on Saturday, in the arms of my hubby. Sadly, I was here in VA and didn't get the chance to say good-bye.

Mr. Banker and bloggers-I hope you check out her DOND audition tape made a bit more than a year ago.

Good Evening all!

Linda looks like Eric paid us a visit today ..

Eric how are you?
I will watch for DOND during the game!! and just for you so you know I am not giving up I will give you my total on days I've been waiting 665 days since my interview with Neal Konstantini and 293 days since I tried out in OHIO and 202 days since I mailed in a tape!!

I am very Determined!!!

Posted by:Dawn Mays 765-730-3130 | January 26, 2009, 08:12 PM

 

All my faithful bloggers,

Remember Diane Jorgenson, the gal who has yet to finish her game? Watch Super Bowl XLIII on NBC. Maybe they'll be a promo about DOND during the commericals

Until next time
Eric

P.S. Keep the faith dawnmays and Linda,

Here she is Miss America from Indiana!

Sure do Miss You Mr Banker!

Good Morning Mr. Banker,

Do you believe you reap what you soe? I am soeing words of wishes and dreams. I am hoping I'll reap a Contestant spot from Casting. Do you think it will work?


Like a lover of the show, I've watched "Deal Or No Deal" for so long
Now I'm wondering if Casting will ever call, oh please tell me I am wrong
Oh "Deal Or No Deal", here I am, signed, sealed delivered, I'm yours, a Contestant want to be

Then that time I went to Indiana to meet Dollydeb, Kim and that was a high
Then back in Ohio still dreaming and wanting to be a Contestant I am still going to try
Oh Casting, here I am, signed, sealed delivered, I'm yours, a Contestant want to be

Here I am Mr. Banker
Oh, you've got the future in your hand
I say, I'm signed, sealed delivered, I'm yours, a Contestant want to be

Here I am Casting,
Oh, you've got the future in your hand
I say, I'm signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours, a Contestant want to be

I've wrote alot of different things that I really love and hoped all of you enjoyed
I have seen alot of TV shows, but they weren't as exciteing as, "Deal Or No Deal"
Oh "Deal Or No Deal", here I am, signed, sealed delivered, I'm yours, a Contestant want to be

Oh "Deal or No Deal" you set my soul on fire
That's why I know you are my only TV show desire
Oh "Deal Or No Deal", here I am, signed, sealed delivered, I'm yours, a Contestant want to be

I could be a broken person for trying to become a Contestant for so long, but here I am
With hoping, dreaming, and wishing to become a Contestant in the future, I'll say again
Here I am "Deal Or No Deal" signed, sealed delivered, I'm yours, a Contestant want to be

I'm still in VA, just wanted to say how beautiful my new grandbabe is. (well, would it be any other way?).

Mr. Banker, where are you?

Posted by:dollydeb (nana to T-Rex) | January 25, 2009, 12:51 PM

 

Judy! Judy! Judy!, finally someone! I felt so alone on Mr. Banker's blog.
Your right about Mr. Banker. His blog sure tricked me. Now all that's left his for him to treat us, and ask Casting to give us all a call to be Contestants.
As for the weather in Ohio it started snowing about an hour ago.
Now I am going to have a cup of tea and sit by the phone waiting for it to ring.
Have a great day everyone.

So what's up you today Linda? It has been warmer here in Indiana. Got to get back to work my break is over.

Ok Ok
There can only be 3 reasons why I am on this blog alone.

1. The world has come to an end and I have yet to realize it.

OR

2. All of you are in California in Culver city as Contestants on stage tapeing the daytime version of "Deal Or No Deal".

OR

3. My typed words on this blog have bad breath.

I don't find Mr. Banker to be very friendly these days not like he ever was very friendly.

Maybe Mr.Banker just needs a visit from his bloggers!!! Jan Linda Judyx3 Dollydeb CT Kim Martha Mad Mark Mitch Andreas Eric Richard and everyone else that has stayed faithful!!!

When will Mr.Banker update his blog and do the first blog on the daytime show????

Hello Mr. Banker,

I want you to know I am jealous of Dollydeb! :( She is getting to hold her bundle of joy. I want to hold my bundle of joy, and spend every dime of it. Tell Casting to let their phone give birth to a phone call for me to be a Contestant. I want to hear the crys of Casting asking me to be a Contestant as I hold the phone in my arms.

Good Afternoon Mr. Banker, and Casting,

I have made up my mind
There's a fire in my soul that must come to an end
Only being a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal" will relieve it
Just watching "Deal Or No Deal" I think I hear my phone ring

Mr. Banker, here I go again
My my, how can Casting resist me?
Mr. Banker, I am writing again?
My my, longing for Casting to call me
Yes, I have been brokenhearted
Blue days, when they don't call me since I started
Why, why do you not call me, please don't let me go?
Mr. Banker, now I really know,
"Deal or No Deal", I could never let it go.
Mr. Banker, believe me when I say
Casting really needs to call me now,
Mr. Banker, its the game I just have to play
Why, why does it seem I've waited forever


PS: Make me a trail of bread crumbs so I can find my way to the "Deal Or No Deal" stage.

Mr. Banker-
I'm flying out tonight to see my new grandson.
(and, NO, I'm not using my broom-I lent that to your wife, Mr. Banker, hers is apparently broken).

BTW-I wonder how many of the folks down in DC saw the Kilroy carving on the WWII Memorial that my son did-yes, with the Memorial Committee's approval. (he even did some of the lettering.)

Soooooo-Mr. Banker, did you see it?

Posted by:dollydeb | January 21, 2009, 08:01 AM

 

Hey, Dawn:
I think I spotted Mr. Banker in the crowd in DC yesterday. I spotted him as the cameras panned across the massive crowds.

Gee, Mr. Banker-hiding in plain sight, not really a good idea.

Posted by:dollydeb | January 21, 2009, 07:57 AM

 

This response is for Richard.

I am not sure where you live or where you've been over the last several years.
But Richard if you can not see that Obama is exactly what America needs now, I Believe he will change and get economy and all issues back on track. He is intellagent, well educated and I feel he is our answer.
No need to argue each have thier own opinion and this is a blog for DOND .

Richard History has been made and more important He will re envent History by getting us out of the tragic and devastating shambles that or goverment and our stockmarket has come to be over the last several years.
Lets start with an open mind,stay positive and supportive because more than ever we need to come together as one and work together as one, only one person is weak but a group of people working as one is strong and uhdestructive.

Banker are you still alive? Have you went on Vacation? Where ol where are you ? Find your way back home we would be interested to hear your rude comments.

Obama will sell us out to the rich, just as many politicians did.

Posted by:Richard | January 20, 2009, 10:52 PM

 

Good Evening all!

Mad Mark I for one will never ever forget DOND!! I slept in a lawn chair and in line for over 24 hours to get my chance and it paid off cause I got my interview with Neal Konstatini and 10 months later I did the same thing I stood in line again only this time inside a mall over night to get another chance and than to only waith a few months after that to go home and tape my twin sister and mail that tape to DOND !!!! I for one will never forget the show or the tryouts!!!!
40 at the time of all tryouts I had never even stood in line for concert ticket Never thought I would have the passion for anything like that so !!! if the show does not air again until 2011 or 2020 I will stay a loyal faithful fan!!AND DETERMINED TO BE A CONTESTANT!!!

Mad Mark I too like Hockey over football that is if I had to choose from the two sports..

Greeting Mr. Banker, and Casting,

I'm emotional, yes Casting it's true
Cause I've been waiting for a call from you
Just like all who wants to become a Contestant
I can tell you how I would play the game
With Mr. Banker being so classy in his hideaway
And I would be your classic Contestant aiming to win
That's why Casting, you've got to pit me against him
Because, it's not all about what's on the money board
But playing well with the offers and the case that's yours
Hey it's all about what's in sight that's the name of the game,
We're begging for the call to be a Contestant, and we're not ashamed
Future Contestants is what we want to be.
How about starting first with me!!!

Posted by:NameJudybnjudy | January 19, 2009, 10:23 PM

 

No No No I will Not forget about DOND, I will humbly await it's return in 2010.

Maybe the Banker could be Howies side kick, literally speaking, you know like:
"It's Howie Dewie time, it's Howie Dewie time..."
Anyway I'll continue to blog - It's Snowing oh yeah the sunshine melted some of it today.

Posted by:NameJudybnjudy | January 19, 2009, 10:13 PM

 

Eric, I could care less about the Stupor Bowl. I detest football. The NFL is full of criminals. I'm Canadian, as you all know, and I'm a huge hockey fan.

Speaking of hockey, there is one US state that loves hockey so much, I consider it to be a lost Canadian province. That state is Minnesota. A large number of American-born NHL players come from Minnesota, and several more Minnesotans are drafted by NHL teams every year. Heck, Minnesota also boasts an NHL franchise of its own - the Minnesota Wild. I know there's at least one Minnesotan who posts here regularly, and if so, are you a Wild fan? They're actually a very good team. My Montreal Canadiens are even better, though.

One more thing: Eric, DoND will apparently return on November 11th, 2011, as previously mentioned on what I believe was TV Guide's website. Watch for it then. I hope you can wait that long. I'm willing to bet that most of you will have forgotten about the show by then.

Best,
-Mad Mark.

Good Afternoon Mr. Banker,

I want to have an Inauguration. I want to be on the "Deal Or No Deal" stage and take the Contestant oath for playing the game.

"I Linda Caroots do solemnly affirm that I will faithfully play the "Deal or No Deal" Game, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Case I have chosen from the 26 Cases from whence it came. I Linda Caroots will also officially open a new game with in the institution of "Deal Or No Deal" going head to head with Mr. Banker.

"Now let the game begin"!!! "I only have one chance to give." "The Contestant is coming, The Contestant is coming." "Read my lips, "No more losers" "For score and seven cases ago Mr.Banker brought forth, upon this "Deal Or No Deal" stage, a new offer, conceived in stinginess, and dedicated to buying the Contestants case for less and sending them home, and that no one is equal to the Banker."
"We Need Change", can we do it? "Yes We Can"?
Call me to be a Contestant and you will see!!!
"Now let the game begin"!!!

HI Mr. Banker and bloggers!
Dawn, I'm with you-I wish the daytime website would be updated so we could see LB's video clip.

Well, west coasties-today we have borrowed some of your sunshine. We truly need it. Last night the weatherman said we've had 118 inches of snow so far this year. Ouch!

Tell you what, your mid-westies could use a trip to sunny LA (and we'll bring all the others along, too-Andres, Andrew, Marsha, even Mad Mark from Canada).

So, how 'bout a cup o' sunshine from LA??? Remember, sunshine turns things green-like the green in Mr. Banker's cases.

Mad Mark and Andrew B

It's official!! The next good thing on NBC is here, Super Bowl XLIII on February 1 and do you know what? DOND is not on the air then. My prediction for DOND is that it will stay on hiatus until May or June and don't be surprised if the show ended with a whimper.


Until next time
Eric


P.S. Dawn Mays, dollydeb, My thoughts and prayers are with you.

At least Nick updated his blog.. Where is the Banker?

The Banker nor Howie has put thier first blog on the daytime show website. and NBC has not updated the daytime blog...I was hoping to see LB on the blog!!! and her interview...What is going on with NBC????

I am froze stiff! Make sure you wave out your plane window with a scarf so I will know it's you then I'll go back in and blog my fingers off.

Gee, Mr. Banker-
Once again Nick has shown you up by posting to his faithful bloggers.
How on earth can you stand by and watch a young whipper snapper outdo you?

Don't you worry-I'm not the cougar type. I prefer older, out-of-style, worn out men like you. (shhhhh, don't tell hubby I said that)
ggggg

Hi bloggers:
Just a couple more days until I head to VA/DC to see my new grandbabe!

And, don't you worry your pretty little head, Mr. Banker-I have TIVOd the daytime version until I return.

HI Mr. Banker and bloggers!

Hope you all have a snuggy warm day!

Cold Cold Cold here in the midwest.

Peek-A-Boo Mr. Banker,

Nick surprised us with a new blog. I am going to share with you what I posted on his blog.

Nickolas Greico you are adorably funny. It's not the Casting call I wanted, but you sure gave me a good laugh. Ha Ha :)
You sure fooled me. I thought you were sending us Bloggers a message about becoming Contestants.
It is wonderful to see a new post from you. I am hoping Mr. Banker will surprise us with a new post also.
I am up late because my youngest daughter has a cold and I am taking her cough medicine to her.
Well, it is so cold here in Ohio I am going to bed and pull the comfort over my head until the sun shines again. Goodnight.

PS: This the hidden message in my post for you:
I am hoping Mr. Banker will surprise us with a new post also.

Hello Mr. Banker, and Casting,

Looking back on when I started in May 2006 trying to become a Contestant and seeing it through
Looking back on what I've written to you Mr. Banker, Casting, and to "NBC's" "Deal Or No Deal"
Reading all the things I have written about the show trying to become a Contestant I feel proud
And seeing that one of us made it to the "Deal Or No Deal" stage makes me feel a victory was won
There's a now a feeling of happiness on your blog Mr. Banker. Let's keep this happiness going.
Let me Linda Caroots, and all your faithful Bloggers start a new beginning in our lives this year of 2009
Make those calls Casting, you'll be happy you did. : )

Hi bloggers and Mr. Banker-
Mr. Banker, do you feel the change? We are in the midst of a celebrity...
NO, not YOU-L.B. is our resident celebrity blogger!
Again, congrats LB

Dawn, cheer up-we may have it bad ( so far, Holland has received about 100 inches of snow this season-already passed the average for the entire winter, brrrrr and grrrr)...but our poor dear Jan in MN probably has it much worse-temps way below 0.

Stay warm bloggers!
Marsha and Martha, where are you?
Kim, stay warm in the windy city!
Linda and Martha, I'll wave to you from the plane next week, so keep your eye in the sky.

Lucky duckies
on the west coasties,
you have the warm temps

Good Day my bloggin peeps!
Just poppin in to say hello and hope you all on the east and midwest are trying to keep warm. My friends at the party enjoyed my DOND debut. All 15 said I should have been on the primetime show, but Im thankful for the experience at all. Since the show is not in production right now, we'll have to wait to hear back from Nick and the Banker and I guess to see my online video where I make a shot out to the bloggers, but until then its all good. Big warm hug from yr LB xoxoxox

Hi Everyone!!

Andreas Believe it!!! Today in Indiana we have around 4 inches of snow wind around 30 miles per hour and actual tempature is 0!!!! with wind chill factor thrown in it is -7 actual temp tonight and tomorrow morning is -14 that is without wind chill.

SO ALL MID WESTIES STAY INSIDE AND WARM IF YOU CAN

Posted by:Dawn Mays 765-730-3130 | January 15, 2009, 02:56 PM

 

I was SHOCKED to have read on Yahoo! news that some parts of the country, especially in the Great Lakes regions, are having incredibly-cold, sub-zero temperatures. I read that some temperatures dropped to about 14 degrees below zero, and that someone even died from this extremely-cold weather!! If you live in Minnesota, Indiana, Illinois, or Michigan, I hope you stay warm and safe out there. Thank God that I live in New Mexico, where we have sunny weather throughout most of the year.

Good Morning Mr. Banker, and Casting,

You know Mr. Banker, your Bloggers are your garden.
Everytime you post a new post you are spreading fertilizer.
Then if you mention any of us by name you give off extra sunshine.
While all of that is good, we need to be watered to make us grow.
So tell Casting to fill their watering bucket with our phone numbers
And give our roots nourishment to grow into "DOND" Contestants!!!

PS: We are the BEST of the crop!!!

Helloooo Bloggers I just remembered that I didnt post on the Big Bankers Blog. My party will be starting shortly so I wanted to leave a quick note here. I tried to give a bit more details of that day for the bloggers that are interested. It can be found on Nick's Blog. Love to you all, Will check back in tomorrow! Big Hugs from yr LB (LB stands for LadyBug) =) Lady Stynnett

Posted by:LB | January 13, 2009, 09:10 PM

 

And I was thinking you were going to do something to LB because she won "little" money, before the $10,000, which didn't stop you from slamming Ritchie Bell even though he didn't win "little". And I'm saying that there was no ground in calling LB an idiot for simple bad luck. But apparently that's not what you're doing anyways.

Posted by:andrew b | January 13, 2009, 08:44 PM

 

LB, I'm so glad that you mentioned this blog on national TV!! That should certainly capture the attention of the DOND casting department so that they will actually read all of our comments on both Nick's blog and this one. I hope that I will not have to wait as long as you did...I auditioned for this show on April 12, 2008. So I hope that I will get that life-changing phone call from the NBC producers to be on this show in the next few months. And I hope that they will put me on a Prime Time episode because I want to go for the MILLION!!!! I want to win my dream fortune of $387,000.

Mark, I'm lambasting the two totally ridiculous practices that the producers went through. It was completely ridiculous to think that LB would need help on the $1,500 offer, when there is at least $10,000 waiting for her seven times out of eight, and it was beyond ridiculous to throw to commercial in front of an approaching offer that *must* be taken.

Posted by:andrew b | January 13, 2009, 08:42 PM

 

LB, you Lucky Lady!!!

Forget the money just for a few minutes. You were about 20 steps away from your Banker Boo, hugged and stood next to Howie, hugged Tameka and Patricia, and instead of 15 minutes of fame you had 2 half hours of fame. That says a Million Dollars to me girl!!! You looked Fantastic!!! I felt like a Million Dollars just knowing I talk to you on "Mr. Banker's Blog". It all boils down to you had a dream of yours come true, and you did a great job!!! You Lucky Lady you!!! I hope one day we all get a chance at playing the game.

LB,

This is Eric and I just want to say despite not coming home with the top prize, you took home a respectable $10,250.


LB, When you hit the top amounts, you could've given up and no one could've blamed you, but you didn't give up and thanks to the Splenda case, you took home a lot of money. Well LB, Good luck in all you do and God's speed.


Until next time
Eric


P.S. Mad Mark, where are you man? What did you think of LB?

Posted by:Eric | January 13, 2009, 07:43 PM

 

Andrew: Calm down. Seriously. It's enough already.

LB: Congrats on winning $10,250! I'm glad you found that Splenda case, because it helped to convert your game into an OPW (Outright Player Win). LB, you're a winner on every level. You are living proof that persistence and being a dreamer does pay off, and you're $10,250 richer because of that. Andrew was probably expecting me to say something negative about all this, but there is no need for me to do that, so take that, Andrew. The stats don't matter (they never did, actually). All that matters is that our LB lived out her dream and had a great time doing it. Congratulations, LB, and enjoy the money. We are all proud of you.

By the way, now would be a good time to mention that I'm a journalist, and I'm interested in doing a feature story on you and your DoND experience. If you're interested, please contact me at magnetboy1@yahoo.ca so that we can set up an interview. I look forward to hearing from you.

Best,
-Mad Mark.

Posted by:Mad Mark | January 13, 2009, 07:41 PM

 

Since you were actually there when these things happened, LB, can you explain why Howie saw the need to give you "help" on offer 3, when the offer is $1,500 and the only way to not leave with $10,000 or more is to have the 10K be the other amount of the final two? To me, that looks like 28:3 odds against coming out right (1/8 that 10K is the other amount, 6/7 that your case does not contain 5K) if the deal is taken. Meanwhile, if 10K is opened at any other time, you would get 10K plus the average of the remaining cases, which was precisely $975.71, but 10K if it was your case, which is another $1,250. So you're gambling on (28/3) / (1500/12,225.71) = 75.1 to 1 odds against, if you were to take that deal. Why would you need help for that?

And I know Howie doesn't do math very well, but why did they throw to a commercial before the (10,)250 offer, when even the producers know it is mathematically impossible to refuse it? What's the use?

When people deal early here, they just chat around for some time for the rest of the show. They could have fit in a Banker's Blog Shout-Out if they wanted to, even.

Posted by:andrew b | January 13, 2009, 07:19 PM

 

Just finished watching (and recapping) your game, Lady... congratulations! I was hoping you'd realize that the $10,250 offer was guaranteed be the biggest offer you'd get for the rest of the game, and you did. Great to see such a big fan of the show like you get a chance to actually play it.

Posted by:Jordan | January 13, 2009, 06:35 PM

 

And what do we get in your original case? ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS. :)

Posted by:andrew b | January 13, 2009, 05:39 PM

 

Oh. AND DEMETRES DID IT WITH CASE 10.

Posted by:andrew b | January 13, 2009, 05:31 PM

 

Also, LB, you might note that your offer was $10,250. See a little something here? 10 = your case. 25 = "25".

Also, case 10 had $1,000, which is what the first Houston contestant won. The next won $1,000,000. 10, 1,000, 1,000,000. !

This just keeps happening.

Posted by:andrew b | January 13, 2009, 05:29 PM

 

Well Helloooo Bloggers!
By now many of you have seen the show or will by the time you read this. I will be busy the remainder of the day preparing for my viewing party tonight when all my supporters, friends and family who didnt get to go with me, with be here to see the madness. I thought I should share some thoughts on the experience before my day gets too hectic.
First Im So glad I dont have to keep this secret any longer, hardest secret I ever had to keep. What can I share with you about the experience is this;
IT WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING LIKE I IMAGINED OR PLANNED FOR!
Remember I auditioned in Dec 2006 when there was No syndicated version. So in my head, If blessed to be on the show, I would have 7 shots at big money. My family would be with me, the models would be there and I would have the million in my #10 suitcase. Remember I said In my head.
Someone once told me, If you want to hear God laugh, tell him what your plans are! Exactly what I was feeling after the fact. When I was called for the newlywed show I didnt know immediately it was for syndication, but when I found out, I wasnt too bummed because my hubby would be with me. Then when we got there and I realized my hubby would have to be high strung like me all day, I worried. We got pulled and I was told I would be brought back ALONE. I assumed it would be for primetime, still holding on to my vision in My head and then I got the call to return for syndication.
Once again although feeling very blessed, I still held out hope they would call my supporters and I would have a shot at the million, and just like in my mock show, I would win the big $ with case #10. All of that changed the day before I taped. I got the call the night before & told where to go,the time and what to bring. When I tell you, every emotion hit me all at once, Im not joking! Excitement, fear, shock, thrill, worry, joy, apprehensiveness, anxiety, sadness, appreciation, then calm. After dealing with all those emotions I came to a place of accepting, I have to do this alone,hubby and kids and supporters wont be with me, so go be my upbeat hyper happy self and be in gratitude for the experience.
I get there & meet the most amazing contestants and hear many stories of "waiting for the call". Im having a blast, and making new friends. Im happy and content with whatever happens, whether the ball lands on me or not. I just feel so blessed for a shot. I play game 1 on Monday. So much fun I dont want it to end. Then Tues the unthinkable happens. Im routing for someone who I grew to adore, and I wanted the ball to land on her. I wanted to tape all 5 shows, and if it was meant to land on me, I hoped it would wait until the Friday show because I was having so much fun. But then, out of the blue it lands on me! On ME! OMG On me! I am in shock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Utter shock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was happy, scared, anxious, worried, Thrilled out of my mind. It felt like an out of body experience. I wanted to jump Howie and kiss his whole face, but I had to try and calm down. My heart was beating loud enough for the Banker to hear it!
And the game began and it was alllllllllllll a blurrrrr! The big money was Not where in my Heart I believed it would be. NOTHING was going like I thought it would. I had a chance to call my hubby but I couldnt reach him, he said he had a missed call and tried to call me back but it went to voice mail. All the cases I had been practicing picking for 2 years in my head, all had big dollar amounts in them. My lucky numbers were NOT lucky and my unlucky numbers were suddenly lucky. Everything was upside down and inside out. After the big three got opened my heart stopped. In my head I would have 7 chances to turn it around, not 3, so I wasnt prepared for how to handle keeping the momentum going after that. I really wanted to cry, but I could not embarrass myself or family on National TV. I just smiled, said a silent prayer of gratitude and keep it moving.
After the show I couldnt get Howies autograph on my bobble head, I got moved back stage with the contestants and the microphone unhooked. I was getting hugs and congrats from everyone. I videotaped a msg for the website and got to record a video voice mail for The Banker that was suppose to air right after the show. I dont know if it shows in everyones tv viewing area. In the video for the daytime website, I shot out to the bloggers but its not on the website I think because DOND is not in production right now. I met with folks in legal to finish up and then I texted my hubby to come to the studio to pick me up. When he drove up, security on the lot congratulated me, and I got in the car. He said I rode home in a daze looking like I was struck by lightening.
None of what happened in the show, came back to me until today. It really was all a blur! I guess you hold a vision of what YOU want to happen for soo long, What your plan will be, how you will execute it, Never ever realizing that Just because you have a plan, God is automatically going to go along with it. At least I didnt. In the end, I auditioned in 2006 to win money to pay for my wedding. I won EXACTLY what my wedding cost. Down to the penny! I didnt even realize that until a week later, thats how in shock I still was.
I have to admit God does have a sense of Humor. And just to experience it, Even though, as I told Howie, This is not how it happened in my head I am in such gratitude that I had an actual chance at all. I love and thank you all for your humble support and cheering me on thru the days up to the actual show. I do hope when DOND comes back to production, they post my video and you all get to hear the shot out to the bloggers! I did do one! I did think of you all, and I hope you felt I represented the Amazing bloggers well considering it all. Big hug and Kisses from Your LB!
Aka Lady Stynnett

Posted by:LB | January 13, 2009, 04:58 PM

 

Wow. Some game that was. After all that waiting...


Now, Mad Mark - is she an idiot? Because there is every likelihood that she would not win the $1,000, even though it was actually in her case, thus being low enough under your criteria to be an idiot.

You can work in a vacuum as much as you like, but when that bad luck actually happens to you, it's going to bite you back, Mark.


And I have to know, Howie, how dumb the producers of this show are. WHY DOES LB NEED HELP ON THE $1,500 ANYWAY? And after the Splenda was opened, why do we need to throw to commercial before delivering the offer when everyone knows she'll take it? Come on. NBC has never been more moronic.

Posted by:andrew b | January 13, 2009, 03:31 PM

 

Mr. Banker,

I just heard about Howie being hospitalized for an irregular heatbeat. Tell him that he is loved by all of us Bloggers. When they said he will be back to work tomorrow I was so happy. Tell him he was probably just excited from finally meeting one of "Mr. Banker's Bloggers.

Posted by:Linda Caroots | January 13, 2009, 03:11 PM

 

Here's hoping our lucky Lady (that's the first time I've ever heard that as an actual first name, by the way; very original) did well today. I didn't see her game yet, but I'm hoping for the best. If LB takes on The Banker, it will surely be a reworking of Lady and the Tramp, minus that famous spaghetti-eating scene ;) . Good luck, LB :) ! We're all rooting for you.

Best,
-Mad Mark.

LB:

Hope you won the top prize ($500,000) on the daytime show.

I had heard that an episode of the daytime show had been taped where someone wins the $500,000 and that it would air in mid-January.

Maybe LB's the one!

We, the "Deal Or No Deal" bloggers, are the ones who should win the top prizes ($1 million nighttime; $500,000 daytime).

Posted by:Jofus | January 12, 2009, 03:41 PM

 

Saw "Howie Do It".

It would have been a much better show had it been titled "How The Banker Does It" and hosted by you, Mr. Banker.

With Howie wearing various disguises to do his pranks, you could do the same.....only not take the disguise off after you tell someone that they're on "How The Banker Does It".

It would also be a more popular show.

Then if you mention any of us by name you give off extra sunshine.
While all of that is good, we need to be watered to make us grow.
So tell Casting to fill their watering bucket with our phone numbers
And give our roots nourishment to grow into "DOND" Contestants!!!

PS: We are the BEST of the crop!!!

Howie Do It? I saw from the wife makeover to the end with the couple in bed, sorry I missed the beginning I watched a little bit of wife swap of the guy trying to clean house in stripper boots like his wife does...

Anyway I laughed and laughed at the beat up wife makeover so funny.

Kudos to Howie You Are the Master of Pranks!

Watch and Learn Mr Banker!

Linda I could watch the animal clip, but the dog @ the butcher shop wouldn't play I'll try it later. I would be the pig at the end lagging behind with the klydedale leg warmers.

Hi Dawn my son is back in Muncie today @ BSU! Early classes every day in CAP program.

Dollydeb hopefully on your episode they will have your T-Rex, and family in the front row or on stage even better.

Andrew and Mad Mark always be yourself those that mind don't matter and those that matter don't mind. I don't mind, I do enjoy your input!

Keep posting all.

LB I'll be watching today at 4 pm can't wait!

HI Bloggers and Mr. Banker-
Hubby and I watched most of Howie Do It-
we still say a good prank is to have Mr. Banker as the victim of the prank, maybe Howie can have Kim our wonderful banker collector audit Mr. Banker's recent transactions.

LB-just two more days until your terrific episode-and I'm watching ALL week to see how many times the camera shines on you!

Bloggers, have faith
Bloggers, have fun
Tale Mr. Banker
& his money for a run!

(okay, Linda-you are clearly the poet winner on this blog, but I thought I'd give it a try.

I saw a Howie Do It preview on Jay Leno this week, and it was pretty funny. I was busy on Friday itself, however.

Posted by:andrew b | January 10, 2009, 07:17 PM

 

Hi, all. Hope everything is well. Did any of you catch the premiere of Howie Do It on Friday night? If so, how bad was it :P ?

Andrew, if you want to keep on doing what you're doing, yo go right ahead. We like to have varied opinions about things here, so they tell me.

Looking forward to LB's show on Monday. Hopefully she did well and won herself a bundle of money.

Best,

No hi for Mr. Banker-since he thinks we don't matter.

Andrew, you seriously need to calm the hell down. It's just a freakin' game show. I got sick of bashing people because it was getting boring, and there didn't seem to be a point. Okay, so you know all that crazy math and stastical stuff, but I really don't think anyone else here bothers to overanalyze everything like you do. Yes, some contestants are complete idiots, but idiots just aren't worth ranting about anymore. If they did said or did something stupid, that's their problem. There is no need to write an essay about it. A few months ago, I probably would have done the same thing you did, but during my absence, I realized that there was no longer a point. Eric is right; your rants are remniscient of the old me, whom no one really liked because of the constant ranting. That's my two cents on this matter.

Posted by:Mad Mark | January 08, 2009, 11:51 PM

 

Andrew B,

I must say that you are Mad Mark's second-in-command with your rants and contestant bashing. Keep it up and one day you'll be called Mad Andrew.

Andrew B, Did you know that the syndicated version of DOND has all new epsiodes beginning Monday January 12? It should be fun to watch.

Until next time
Eric

P.S. To all the bloggers, I know this blog is about DOND, but did you know that NBC is the home of Super Bowl XLIII on February 1? What are your favorite Super Bowl commericals of all time? I look forward to your responses.

I like to capture my dreams on tape, so I stick a mini cam in my ear when I go to bed so it can capture everything in my brain while I sleep.

So since we have the primetime DonD Idiot List complete, I think it's time to compile a Daytime DonD Idiot List. The top five morons in DDonD history:

5 - Jim Miracle. OK, I appreciate the fact that you didn't want to "gamble" with your 72K, but if you are certain the 500K is on the podium, IT IS NOT A GAMBLE. IT'S CALLED THROWING AWAY $428,000.

The offer will increase by $126,000 twice as often as it will go down by $65,750, and that's only in "real time". That's almost 3:1 odds against. So how is not only being certain, but having 2.83:1 odds in favor in case of being wrong, a "gamble"?

4 - the guy I mentioned who took 86K and threw away a Secondary Dream Finish. (I forget his name, and he was in the second half-hour.) So you refused 54K because you had a net, and you were hoping for 100K or more in order to justify your decision. Yeah, well you took less than 100K, and you *still* had a net. If you're not happy with your own decision, DO NOT MAKE IT. Enough said.

3 - Sabrina Baxter. No matter what excuse you give, you can't justify giving up the Dream Scenario when there was no other pressing reason to say Deal in the first place. As I quote DonDFan from dond.co.uk, who thinks he can defend it: "Because $96,000 is an awesome amount of money! She could have knocked out $500,000 and her offered would have dropped lower. Then, saying NO DEAL to that, she could have knocked out $250,000 and be left with $1 and $200."

So the offer could drop $95,900. Yeah. The offer could also go up $179,000, as it likely would have done had it been played out.

"You DEAL when you are happy with the amount of money offered to you."

Very clearly, she was not happy, instead relying on what she thought her mother was going to say. Well, how do you know? At least 75% of supporters are going to say No when you have the ultimate net and only one case to open. At worst, the offer drops to about $60,000. At best, which happens twice as often, it goes up past $200,000. So you have odds far in favor, and you can always quit with the 60K if need be, which is definitely a takable offer. Therefore, there is simply no reason to quit.

2 - Marceia Hawkins. What can I say? The epitome of moron, matched only by an even stupider move later.

She comes in the studio with a completely annoying attitude, that she will go all the way, period, and win 500K. OK. Look at the odds a bit: At the time of this move, 110 players had played before and not won. Is that a bit of a signal?

The odds are 1/22 of picking it, and 1/65 of going to the very end without a net (you must always assume the worst-case scenario when making assumptions!), according to the primetime version at that time. So you can beat those odds? Heh. I want to see you try.

In round 2, a 100K case is opened, and the offer drops, although you said you knew it was going up. What does that tell you about your "knowing" that 500K is in case 2? But then she says it again when she turns down the offer, and says "I'm not taking anything less!" So why don't we just open your case now and be done with it?

Eventually, the game drops to six cases, with no net, and she *still* says it. Go ahead...prove it. Or maybe she doesn't know there's no net. Then with four cases left, someone actually TELLS her, and she *still* says it. And then FAIL.

I wonder if $500,000 is in your case now? And if you can't take home more than $25,000, which is clearly less than the $500,000 that is the only thing you'll accept, why are you still standing here?

At the very end, she says that she lived up to her word by going to the end. Your word also included the promise to win 500K. 300 is not 500K. You're a liar. No wonder they made the hiatus announcement one day after you were put on the air, primetime version or not.

Unlike Marybeth, she didn't actually blow the top prize, so she is not on the top of the list.

That person is....CHELSEA DRAKE. If anyone wishes to challenge me on this, I have the episode on tape.

I do have to say that the case choices were excellent...three of the top four in the final three. But now, with 176,000 at stake, Chelsea states that she is in a no-lose situation, and thus says No Deal. Then, at 275,000, she says it's too much money to risk. Hello? Didn't I just hear you say this was a no-lose situation? And how much more of a no-lose situation is it when 100K is the bottom, as compared to 75K?

Jessica had *double* the money at stake, which is going to be greater stress than being 2 days from giving birth (and if that was too stressful, Chelsea, how did you get this far anyways without giving up?), and she had the same view as you, up until that last decision. She was set, so she turned it down. You were also set, no matter what you say.

There's only three possible amounts you can win: 100K, 275K, or 500K. You earlier stated you were set with 75K. Now why are you quitting to avoid taking out 100K? Apparently you think 100K is a loss when you had more to win. So why, then, did you refuse the 176K when the worst side of the "no-lose situation" leads to an average of $87,500 won? If $100,000 is not enough, $87,500 is not enough.

And finally, after the show, she said she didn't care that she had thrown out $225,000. Um, really? Why were you so scared of losing $175,000, then?

Congratulations, Chelsea. You have just convinced all the cynics that stupidity cannot be removed from DonD in *any* form. You also blew a "natural" top prize win, which is what we have been looking for all along, for absolutely no reason whatsoever. And then tried to lie about it. So you head the Daytime DonD Idiot List.


(If you're reading this, Mad Mark, try to judge it on *my* criteria.)

Mister Banker, Mister Banker, where have you gone?
Who may have offended you?
Must we wait for your next favorite holiday?
Halloween!!! In hearing from you?
You once stated; it was in your contract that you reply on your Blog, proves that nothing last forever
So, Mister Banker, heres a poem for you.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
"'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door
Only this, and nothing more."
Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore
Nameless here for evermore.
And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me - filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating,
"'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door;
This it is, and nothing more."
Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
"Sir," said I, "or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you" - here I opened wide the door;
Darkness there, and nothing more.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortals ever dared to dream before;
But the silence was unbroken, and the stillness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, "Lenore!"
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, "Lenore!"
Merely this, and nothing more.
Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.
"Surely," said I, "surely that is something at my window lattice:
Let me see, then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore
Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore;
'Tis the wind and nothing more."
Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore;
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.
Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore.
"Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou," I said, "art sure no craven,
Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the Nightly shore
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!"
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning - little relevancy bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blest with seeing bird above his chamber door
Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust above his chamber door,
With such name as "Nevermore."
But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered
Till I scarcely more than muttered, "other friends have flown before
On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before."
Then the bird said, "Nevermore."
Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
"Doubtless," said I, "what it utters is its only stock and store,
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful Disaster
Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore
Till the dirges of his Hope that melancholy burden bore
Of 'Never - nevermore'."
But the Raven still beguiling all my fancy into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird, and bust and door;
Then upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt and ominous bird of yore

Mr. Banker:

Please watch your back!

The producers of Howie Mandel's new show "Howie Do It" may try to go backstage at "Deal Or No Deal" to unmask you.

Everyone knows that people watch both the daytime and nighttime version of "Deal Or No Deal" for just one reason......to see you!

While Brenda would love to see your real face, your effectiveness as The Real Star Of The Show would be undermined if we knew who you were.

So slip some green pieces of paper into the hands of those who produce "Howie Do It" to prevent them from unmasking you.

If Brenda wants to meet you, have her meet you in private, away from the cameras.

Maybe she'll yet become Mrs. Banker.

A "Deal Or No Deal" fan who lives in Boston has let me know (to share with this blog) that anyone watching the daytime version in the Boston area on WSBK Channel 38 should be aware that it is now being seen weekdays at 5 P.M.

Mr. Banker, and Casting,

I had to write this to say how I feel.
I'm only 5 hours away from Culver City, California
Only a small distance away from the "Deal Or No Deal's" stage
Oh how I would like to get a welcoming call from Casting to be a Contestant
And that would be when I go crazy with excitement and wondering what is to be
As I would be packing for the trip, I would be jumping up and off the couch like Tom Cruise
I know I would lose control as I held the phone, because I love the excitement "Deal Or No Deal" offers


PS: All of your bloggers Mr Banker are waiting to get that special call from Casting to become Contestants. Give them a little push to the phone. Go on strike for your bloggers Mr. Banker. I just noticed something about what I just wrote, I think it's a sign!!! See how it looks like steps? Well I think it is telling you to start steppin!!! Steppin up to the plate for "Mr. Banker's Bloggers"!!!

I can't be MM's alias. I obviously disagree with his view that everyone who wins low is a moron regardless of everything else (avoiding the low win might mean taking a deal that would be classified as a moronic decision anyways. And about the people who had no reasonable option but to say No...), and that low winners should not have their games aired (that really spoils the ending of 75 vs. 750,000, if the contestant No Deals.)

Everyone seems to be Happy on here. Good to have you back Mad Mark. Is Andrew one of your alias? He does sound alot like you, which is not so bad.

I read that link to 2011 air date as 146 episodes to be taped by 2011???

Good Evening Mr. Banker, "NBC", and All at "Deal Or No Deal",

I bet you are all excited about Jan. 7th, on being a 2009 "Peoples Choice Awards" Nomineee
Good Luck!!!!!

Jofus, what you said is so true, about the regular bloggers on this website
should have their chance at winning the $1 million on the primetime "DOND" version, and the $500,000 on the daytime "DOND"
version.

Mad Mark case 27, You have made me very happy with your information. In fact you have made my day!!!

This just in!
Looks like DoND might be safe after all, according to out friends at http://www.buzzerblog.com :

Who didnt see this coming? Deal or No Deal looks to be starting taping soon. Possibly as soon as next week, but most likely sometime in Janaury. No word on if its the daytime or primetime edition, but just about every daytime game show is done taping and I cant imagine Deal is any different. NBC is really struggling and Deal has to be back soon to plug in the holes. Primetime Deal saw a ratings surge last week, peaking at 10 million viewers, when it was on a night other than Friday when people actually watch television. What a shock! I hate defending Primetime Deal and the circus that it quickly became, but its hard to deny that NBC viciously mistreated it this season. Well let you know when the tapings specifically resume.

Discuss.

(P.S., Andrew, you're spot on about the daytime version. The Banker is obviously on crack, so that's why the offers don't make sense.)

Posted by:Mad Mark | January 05, 2009, 06:08 PM

 

This is why I dislike the daytime show.

5, 10, 25, 500K = $34,000? No, no, no. The offer that resulted after it was taken was 120K; the offer thus increases 353% 3/4 of the time. You are thus laying odds of 86*3/34 = 6.59:1 against yourself, which is *double* the 3:1 odds of running into the 500K in the first place.

You thus lose $224,000 (86,000 * 3 - 34,000) net, and thus you lose 65% more "real" money (56K) than you would even if you ran into the 500K case.

This is completely unacceptable. Not even if the next biggest amount is $25. And as it happens, the next offer increased to a takable sum (albeit a thin take) before the 500K was knocked off. And the wife of that team calls herself a risk-taker...you're running a 65% greater risk by dealing than not.

Posted by:andrew b | January 05, 2009, 04:57 PM

 

Well, there's a game-show cliffhanger!

Only you, Mr. Banker, can get the next episode on the air.

Just go to The Powers That be at NBC-TV, slip them a few pieces of green paper and insist that the next "DOND" air right after the Super Bowl instead of an episode of "The Office".

We'll then get to see that Iowa lady farmer crash and burn (leaving with one cent) worse than Peyton Manning!

(Besides, the only contestants who should win the $1 million on the nighttime show or $500,000 on the daytime show are the regular bloggers on this website. Everyone else should go home with a penny)

Good Morning all!!

Oh Mad Mark you have just said things you feel, now we all have our opinion and we all express ourselves differently!!!
You add to the group!!! we stick together!!! Glad your Back and your jingle is good, Linda you might have some competition????? Mad Mark Linda is the best at those songs jingles you two get together and you both would'nt have to ever get on DOND to win big money!!!!lol
Well I will be back later to check on everyone I need to go take care of some work!!!!

Andrew: Not only are you a genius, you can also read minds. Thank you for ranting on my behalg.

Dawn: Thanks for the info. I appreciate it. And I'm very suprised that you missed me, given all the horrible things I've said.

One more thing: I've decided to jump on the DoND song / poem bandwagon. Here's my contribution:

(To the tune of The Good Old Hockey Game, by Stompin' Tom Connors, available at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bg2G5gf9GHk )

Hello out there,
We're on the air,
It's Deal night tonight.
The tension grows
As the cases go
And there's no end in sight.
The contestant jumps,
And Howie bumps
And the fans all go insane.
Someone roars,
Play some more!
At the good old Deal Game.

Oh, the good old Deal Game
It's getting kinda lame.
And the thing that's getting lame,
Is the good old Deal Game.

Second round.
The offers come,
And the player hums
While he tries to make a choice.
Howie asks the question in
A loud and clear voice.
The players floored
When he sees the board
Theres large amounts galore.
His supporters feel
He should take the deal
At the good old Deal Game.

Oh, the good old Deal Game
It's getting kinda lame.
And the thing that's getting lame,
Is the good old Deal Game.

Third round, last round of the game, too.
The final two
Are in clear view
One million bucks at stake.
An offers made
And the stage is laid
Play on, for goodness sake!
Its declined,
The supporters whine
Did their friend just screw it up?
The biggies revealed,
Everyone squeals!
At the good old Deal Game.

Oh, the good old Deal Game
It's getting kinda lame.
And the thing that's getting lame,
Is the good old Deal Game.

And there you have it.
Enjoy!

Best,
-Mad Mark.

That can't be correct...November 2011?

I think I see why...what seems to be the episode details talks about a MDM episode with Brad Falcon in it. ?

Posted by:andrew b | January 04, 2009, 08:29 PM

 

Oh, the dond.co.uk recap. I was wondering when you were going to make that.

You basically copied what I had to say about Brien into the recap, but considering that I took those words out of your mouth anyways, EPIC WIN for you. More than anyone can say to Brien himself.

Posted by:andrew b | January 04, 2009, 08:26 PM

 

I am soo soo glad your back Mad Mark!! It just was not the same with out you!!! You really deep us balanced and besides someone has to be real!!!

The lady was scared of hights so the banker put a 1 thousand dollar case in the air and a 5 thousand dollar case and a 10 thousand dollar case straped her in a harnass and raised her high in the sky she had to grab the cases for each case she grab she won that amount on top of what she would win at the end of the show. There that should sume it up!!!!!

Okay, okay, I'm back. never did I expect all of you to be clamouring for my return.

I have a question for y'all - how did the first contestant on the January 2nd episode get the $16,000 bonus? I need to know, as I'm doing a recap of that episode for another site. Please let me know ASAP! Thanks!

LB, I wish you all the best on DoND Daytime. Have fun, and remember, failure is not an option. Try to get as much money as you can. If not, you will incur the wrath of Andrew B. And believe me, you probably don't want that.

Oh, and LB, I know I said it before, but I'd love to intreview you about your DoND experience. My e-mail address is magnetboy1@yahoo.ca if you're interested.

That's all for now.

Best,

Your right about the farmer lady, adorable.

Linda! Keep up the faith-but always be wary of tricks (good one, Andrew)

Dawn, keep countin' them days!

LB-we are all gonna be here to see your television debut-super duper big congrats!

Now, about last night's episode. I liked the stunts (the second contestant going for the cases in the sky-a great idea!), but some parts were drawn out way too long.

Now, mid-westies-seems like the second contestant (the farmer lady) is a super example of a fun contestant-one we can be proud to call a fellow mid-westie!

Mr. Banker-where are you?

Posted by:dollydeb | January 03, 2009, 07:50 PM

 

Hello Mr. Banker, and Casting,

The excitement of the holidays are over now. So I will go back to waiting to be called by Casting to be a Contestant.
I sit waiting at home for the sound of my phone
Night after night day after day, Mr. Banker, Casting, Producers,
You'll never know what it's like waiting for a chance
To be a Contestant on the "Deal Or No Deal" show

PS: To be a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal" is worth waiting for.

That farmer lady from Iowa will have to wait 2 years to finish her game. That can't be right.

Someone help me understand whyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!

Posted by:andrew b | January 02, 2009, 10:45 PM

 

Hi Andrew, You misunderstood what the Mock show was. Occassionally contestants are called to play a mini show, minus the models, howie and the banker. You know at the beginning its just "Make believe", because Casting wants to see what type of energy you will have on air. You dont even have all 26 suitcases. maybe only 10. But honestly having that experience made me more determined to get on the show cause I thought it was some kind of sign. The daytime version didnt exist back then. I dont know if Casting does that anymore, so dont be too hard on them =) Dawn taped a Mock show too and did pretty well from what I remember reading on past blogs.

Posted by:LB | January 02, 2009, 10:30 PM

 

OK, I missed this show. But why, why, why cut out the playout when the offer is that poor? 35K against a board worth 330K in five cases? With 16K in the bank guaranteed, the only reason for somebody to take such a lowball is gone. You're just asking for her to wipe you out.

And why are we putting DonD on hiatus in the middle of a game? That would have to be the most corny promo ever if it were to come back. Finishing a game from 5 months ago? If you want a triumphant return, that is not the way to do it.

Posted by:andrew b | January 02, 2009, 10:14 PM

 

So does anyone know when we will get to see the end of tonights show??????

It will make me made if we have to wait to see the out come!!!!

That's right tonight!!!

Posted by:andrew b | January 02, 2009, 04:04 PM

 

My first audition was Dec 06 where I was called back for a taping of a mock show, which I won the million dollars, so NEVER give up hope bloggers, its never too late to get the call. But if 1 year has passed remember to send it another tape, or go to another casting call to better yr chances. After it aires 11 days from now, on the daytime DOND website will be an interview of me with a msg for the bloggers so please be sure to check it out. Much love and big hugs to all my bloggin buds!

Greetings Mr. Banker, Casting, and Bloggin Friends,

LB has given us hope that anything can happen. I can't wait to see the her debut on Jan. 13th!!!

I have been trying since May 2006. That's when I sent in my first tape, 2 years 7months ago, and I have been trying to become a Contestant ever since. LB has given me hope, and that it's never to late to get the call from "Deal Or No Deal" Casting. ISN'T THAT GREAT!!!!

Okay, I'm back...

I know I'm still hated here, but I'll just post some stuff anyway, if that's okay with all of you.

Okay, that was one bizarre DoND episode. Andrew, who I still think is the smartest person here, basically said everything that I ever wanted to say about it. Nice work.

LB, congrats on getting selected to be a contestant. I hope you did well, for if you did not, you will feel Andrew's wrath. I guess you're living proof that dreams can come true. Good on ya, mate. I'm a journalist, and I'd love to do a feature story on you, if possible. We'll talk after the 13th.

Eric, you missed me the most for some reason, which I'm still trying to figure out. Um, rock on, I guess.

Well, that's about it. One more episode of the primetime verison left. Enjoy it while you can.

I should probably leave now before everyone gets angry at me again for whatever reason.

Best,
-Mad Mark.

Andrew B

Are you following Mad Mark's footsteps? I thought Brien Crowder got out a little early with a player's board but at least he sold the $500,000 and not the million . And Tundie's mother, yes I have to agree with you Andrew B, was one of the supporters ever. I wish she would have kept quiet and let Tundie play. But Tundie perservered and won $100,000 in her case and won a car. Overall it was a good way to start DOND 2009.

Happy new year
Eric


P.S. Andrew B, now that Mad Mark has left us (I hope he'll come back) you're now the person who keeps us grounded.

Posted by:Eric | January 01, 2009, 11:24 PM

 

Well, Mark was right...about 50 minutes of the show was complete incinerator food.

What an utter dolt. This game knocks Tony Kolton off the Idiot List and throws him all the way into 2020. I hope Brien watches his own episode and realizes that.

You can't possibly get more ideal than this: the top three cases out of eight, still a 25K amount, a possible extra 10K, a possible 2009 case, and the entire bench saying No Deal. Instead, we get a person who comes in saying that "I can't be a millionaire if I take the deal...", and then uses the pathetic excuses of "I won $234,000!" (which is not 1M) and "I made my friends happy" (No, you didn't. They were ready to shoot you. And why didn't you come up with this theory earlier?) in order to excuse the move of quitting not even *halfway* to the $500,000 PRELIMINARY amount to a 1M grab, plus the 10K bonus, the top three out of eight, 2009 case, 50K, and all the other stuff? And even after the 1M dropped out, the offer was *still* higher than 234K.

You know what? You're just a big wuss. Wusses do not belong on the Deal or No Deal stage. Period, moving on.

*IDIOT LIST NOMINEE: 7TH STUPIDEST DonD PLAYER*

Also on the list of one of the worst supporters ever to sit on the bench is Tunde's mother. I'm happy that she doesn't resent Tunde, but that's about it.

Starting with the 166K and then afterwards, she displayed behavior that simply does not belong on the bench. (As a side note, Tunde collapsed after seeing the 750K, was then reassured that this was no problem, then decided to collapse again with the 500K reveal. Um...what did we just tell you?)

So, now we do indeed have an AMO offer, but with such a close spread between the amounts, there is really no reason to *not* go for the 2009 case - even if it's a blatant AMO. 11K and what's in 2009 is nothing that you should be ready to break your own daughter's arm over on national TV if she ends up with that after a failed gamble. And it should not be so if 21K and 2009 is the least she can get. She now tells Tunde that she has her own choice, but she's throwing away a lot of money. Huh? The most she can throw away is 49K, and that only happens 1/3 of the time. The 2009 has the potential to be worth far more than that. There is absolutely no reason to not take the 2009. What if the 2009 contains 100K? Then who's thrown away a lot of money?

In fact, the 45,190 automobile wiped out all three AMOs (1,750/4, 5,667/3, 6,000/2) by a factor of 8.48:1. And that doesn't even include the fact she won the 100K.

Could you please explain why you thought this way?

What ever you win your already a winner with your beauty divine.

Good Morning Casting, and you too, Mr. Banker,
I would like to see if you could answer a question for me.

Should "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind (WHAT?)
Should "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" acquaintance be forgot
And days of times of trying to be Contestants gone by,
Should Mr. Banker's Bloggers" acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind (If your brain dead)
Should Mr. Banker's Bloggers" acquaintance be forgot
And days of times of trying to be a Contestant gone by,
For trying to become a Contestant, "DOND" Casting,
Becoming a Contestant is all we want,
We'll ask again with kindness yet (As always)
Please Call the "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" to be Contestants
Because of all the days of times of trying gone by,
Should "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind (Are you kidding)
Should "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" acquaintance be forgot
And the days of so many times of trying to be a Contestant gone by,
Should "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind (That's Impossible}
Should "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" acquaintance be forgot (NO, NEVER, NUH-UH, DON'T GO THERE)
"We'll be waiting for the Call of kindness from Casting for all the days of trying gone by." Please, don't make us wait any longer. Make it your Good Deed for the coming New Year 2009.


PS: We are offering you Casting the "Best Show Ever", "Mr. Banker's Bloggers", open your eyes, take the blinders off, wake-up and smell the coffee, WOW! you could have a "Banker's Dozen (V-8 didn't fit). Come on Casting you know what I am saying, "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth", (Sorry, that's my last one! Ha Ha Ha) But, (yes, there is but) You should be thankful when you receive a gift (That would be us "Mr. Banker's Bloggers") and not wish for something better (Because "Deal Or No Deal" couldn't have a better show than US, we even are the "US" United States, different ethnic backrounds coming together as ONE). Again I say, don't look a gift horse in the mouth, don't measure the value of something that you have received for free (Well, it will cost Mr. Banker, Ha Ha) Casting, we are worth it! Give us each, the constant daily consistent faithful Bloggers a chance at being a Contestant. You know who we are. :)

W.F. Huck has something in common with your other nemisis, Gottfried Schmidt. Now, you have two nemisises. How did W.F. and Gottfried spoil your childhood? I will tell you, WHEN I AM SELECTED AS A CONTESTANT, ON DEAL OR NO DEAL.

What a great show

Davon Clark played a great game, won $388,000 and he's going to see Kobe and the Lakers. Primetime DOND may go down, but not without a fight.


Until next time
Eric

P.S. Mad Mark, wherever you are, Davon Clark didn't let greed consume him and as a result, he won big.

Posted by:Eric | December 29, 2008, 11:07 PM

 

I'm also very annoyed at a couple of the editing jobs I saw here.

Howie threw to break after the first offer was given, and asked "Will he take the 72K, or will he go all the way to win 1M? (...etc, stuff like that.)"

What a stupid question to ask when we already know the guy is not going to do that for at least seven rounds, thanks to the 3-case board you have already shown. You also throw to break when a case is about to be open, when it is clear that the case is small because the only two big amounts left are 400K and 1M, which are both still active on the 3-case board.

If you're going to reveal a large portion of the game in a promo, DO. NOT. DRAG. IT. OUT. LIKE. THIS. That is *not* suspense; it's only annoying. You might as well just show the last 10 minutes and be done with it if you insist on spoiling things.

This is why your show is in the toilet.

Great game tonight he played it perfectly!

Congrats! to the family of T-Rex what a Beautiful Baby he is Grand!

Night Mr Banker, you still have your 2 million dollars.

Posted by:NameJudybnjudy | December 29, 2008, 10:24 PM

 

I hope the wife of the man on the show tonight watches the way she acted to him when he took the deal. He reminded her that they had decided not to be greedy and she got so angry at him for taking the deal of a lifetime. She would not even look at him when he took the deal. He opened the million dollar case the first case he chose on the playoff (after taking a very sweet deal) and she all the sudden changed her attitude towards him. Congrats to him for being grounded and getting a great prize and cash. I hope he enjoys Hawaii with his son and Kobe!

POOR MR. BANKER
I am sure you are still crying!!boo whoo try your tears, quite feeling sorry for your self and talk to us... You know we do not feel sorry for you..
It is about time someone gets a LOT of your Money!!!

Posted by:Dawn Mays 765-730-3130 | December 29, 2008, 10:11 PM

 

That was...completely...amazing. I loved the guy so much, except for one way of thinking that I'll get to later.

The banker's "WO-MAN" gag was utterly uncalled for. Period, moving on.

This is the first time in the history of Deal or No Deal that a bench was proven wrong on No Deal. TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY-FOUR GAMES. That explains why the bench has typically been utterly brainless. Even with this net, it will still be an OPW 1/6 of the time. Not much, but considering how many games have been played, that was due about 200 games ago.

I was all set up to begin flaming when Davon took his deal, even aside from the fact that he won something priceless, because the bench was spot-on. You can buy shoes. Davon says he can't risk it because he needs to take them to Hawaii. YOU CAN DO THAT WITH 200K. You can also do everything else with 200K. Granny said everything on the list was complete when the 186K was offered, and the real-time offer would likely be about the same.

Even the wife whose house Davon says needs to be paid for said No Deal. So you were completely ungrounded in your facts, although it was probably a good move, and if you had pulled a Chelsea Drake, I would have likely brought a flamethrower onto the set pronto for "Mad Mark incinerator food".

But since you have shattered a long-standing principle, it was an OPW, and it's priceless stuff anyways, you get the pass.

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:
Gee, Mr. Banker-you are approaching the two month mark without a single word. What gives> (clearly, not you, Mr. Scrooge McBanker).

Hey, bloggers....let's celebrate the New Year in style. Instead of heading the NYC (or GR-yup, they are doing the same) to see the ball drop,
I suggest we all head to LA to see Mr. Banker drop from his office in the sky. THAT would make for a super duper celebration.
We can make him drop as far as the Dow does for the day. (how's that for encouragement, Mr. Banker-have a chat with your ole' banking buddies.

Happy ALMOST New Year!

Christmas was awesome!

I got to watch (with my family and friends) two and a half hours of "Deal Or No Deal"!

We sat down in the afternoon to watch the half-hour daytime version, then afetr dinner, we all watched the two-hour Christmas show of the prime-time version.

While I was happy to see the contestants win some money, I can't believe Howie arranged to dump snow on you!

But I still love you.

My parents said "Brenda, you're right. You should marry The Banker!".

And so to the World's Real Sexiest Man (Mr. Banker), I send all my love.

P.S.: My 35th birthday is in the Spring. My brother (the computer whiz) has hinted there may be a big surprise party and that you may be there.

Love,
xoxoxo,

Mr Banker, Casting, Producers, Howie,
and Mr. Banker Bloggers,
Just a little something for your enjoyment


Who can take a TV Show, sprinkle it with dreams,
Cover it in green and a miracle or two?
The Banker Man, the Banker Man can;
The Banker Man can 'cause he mixes it with money
And makes the world look good.
Who can take a stage, make it lights and glamour,
Brighten it with DONO models and make Howie's head shine?
The Banker Man, the Banker Man can;
The Banker Man can 'cause he mixes it with money
And makes the world look good.

The Banker Man makes everything he does
Make you have to say (Deal) or (no Deal).
Talk about your decisions!
You can even win extra prizes when mentioned!

Who can take tomorrow, turn it into a dream,
Who gives us a way to take care of all our needs ?
The Banker Man, the Banker Man can;
The Banker Man can 'cause he mixes it with money
And makes the world look good.


PS: Yes Mr. Banker, you do all of that. And Howie, you were a BLAST!

You have just seen two of the most conservative supporters in the history of DonD...the Calhoun grandmother, who said "It's too big for me" from the sidelines. You've got to be kidding me! THE OFFER IS $72,000. What did you think you were coming to see, the UK DonD? Or one of those stupid $5,000 shows on GSN?

We also have Matt's (new) wife. While I have to say that was a real lucky play, I'm interested in how somebody can be so conservative as to attempt to hide the No Deal side of the bench when there is a net of 500K and 400K, that net has been active for the last two rounds, and particularly the last one, which had an offer of barely 7% less money, and even the $400 and $10,000 are reasonable prizes because of the reindeer money. I guess it shows when you've only been married to the guy for a couple days.

Instead, you're supposed to hide the No Deal side when there is such an obvious Deal as the .01/5/400K board from the other game!

I've got to applaud for two OPWs in one show, one of them with a net in place when the game was dealt.

Good morning Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:
Welcome back, Tickle!
Linda, I adore your fortitude!
Happy day after to all the bloggers!

Mr. Banker-FINALLY Howie gave you the cold shoulder (and head, and back, and....-a great stunt)
I liked the trivia. Does that mean that my case 13 isn't lucky, after all?

And, if anyone wants to see what my family found under the tree, just click on my name.

Happy almost 2009 folks!

Thanks for the $50 G's Santa said I collect it from you tonight.

Have a healthy and happy 2009 and remember...

Jesus is the reason for the season.

What a great Christmas episode!!!!!

Dawn Mays, what did you think of tonight's episode?

Posted by:Eric | December 25, 2008, 11:07 PM

 

Marisa, Marisa, How many contestants have you destroyed with a million dollars in your case? Are you on the banker's payroll or something?

Posted by:Eric | December 25, 2008, 09:37 PM

 

Great show "NBC",
BUT,
Yes it's a big but,
But why just use 1 family,
Use "The Banker's Blogger Family"! It would be a mixture family. Not just one story, but a story of many. Not the same story over and over, but many different life stories. Nothing would be repetitious.

Oh, got to go. Another great "Deal Or No Deal" show to watch. YAYYYY!!!

Hello everyone,

I hope everyone had a very good Christmas. Did you get what you wanted this year? After a month hiatus, DOND is back with a Christmas edition. Let's hope it's a good one. Well, let's face it, this DOND year, we had Heather McKee make dubious history by winning a penny, two contestants Katie Henslin and Mary Beth Holtzheimer having the million in their case but couldn't pull the trigger when they had two cases left, We've also seen Garrett Smith, Johnnie Taylor and the already mentioned Mary Beth Holtzheimer sell their million dollar cases in the month of March (Did that remind you of that fateful March night in 2007 when a certain retired general and a bagpiper sold their million dollar cases?). We've also seen Tomorrow Rodgriuez and Jessica Robinson win the million. And who could forget Koshka Blackburn and Ritchie no-dealing big money offers and having a big epic fail as a result.

Mad Mark, this is Eric. Please come back to us, we miss you keeping us grounded and reminders of the flaws primetime DOND has had this year.


Merry Christmas
Eric

Merry Christmas To Us All !!!


Twas the night before Christmas, and on the "Deal Or No Deal" stage
Not a creature was stirring, not even a crew.
The stage was all in Christmas decorations done with great care,
In hopes that a Million Dollar Contestant soon would be there.

The Banker was nestled all snug in his hideaway,
While visions of dollar signs danced in his head.
And Casting in their finding Contestant mode, and I by my phone,
Had just settled their brains on the people to call, while I'm stiil waiting alone.

When out of the blue there arose such a ring that clattered,
I sprang up from my chair to see if the call really mattered.
Away to the phone I flew like a flash,
Picked up the receiver and opened my mouth, uttered "Yes, I want to win some cash".

"Now Linda! now, Dollydeb! now, Judy and Marsha!
On, Dawn! On, Andres! on, on Kim and Jan!
To the top of the Banker's stairs! to the top of the Money Board!
Now Win it all! Win it all! Win it all now!"

He sprang to his feet, to his Models gave a wave,
And away he flew to his cash of Millions to save.
But I heard him exclaim, as he walked fast out of sight,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"

Greetings Mr. Banker,

So what kind of Goodies are you going to pull
out of your big red bag on the next DOND shows?
A little diddy for you Mr. Banker:

Well way to the west where the sun shines bright
There's a show about Banker and his money, and he's tight
That you've all been told
He's a real famous guy with a game that allows his money to be won
And he spends all year working on how it can be done
It's "Deal Or No Deal's" Santa Banker, wonderful Santa Banker!!!

Merry Christmas Eve Mr. banker, Casting, and Bloggin Friends,

WOW!
It's been the longest 2 1/2 years without being called to be a Contestant.
I didn't know where to turn to until I found the Banker's blog.
I can blog and still have my dream of being a Contestant.
After all that's what I have been trying for so long.

On a cold winters day, Hello Mr. Banker, and Casting,

Well, I have my nut roll baking, my Christmas Cheese I just made wrapped in cheese cloth hanging so the excess moisture drips off, getting ready to start making my fudge, and finally make my Kifli cookies.
YUMO!!!
Holidys always bring out the good in people. I hope Mr. Banker, and Casting looks in "NBC" big red Christmas bag and finds a list of our names and phone numbers, and calls us to be "Deal Or No Deal" Contestants.

The UK version of DoND once had a deaf contestant, I believe, as did the French-Canadian version. Both did very well in their respective games. So it certainly has been done before.

I'm new to the blog, but I've been reading what's been going on. Apparently, dollydeb is now officially a grandmother. Congratulations! I hope little Theodore Rex grows up to be a fine young man.

We feel hurt about Deal and No deal show are not Allow Deaf people to play games into show. What about online game for deal and no deal real cash If We are win? becuase of Deaf people never has show for game before. Its not fair for handicap people or deaf people.

Good morning Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:

Richard, Dawn, Linda, and Jofus: Thanks for the congrats! (Mr. Banker, where's your congrats to my son and DIL?).

Little Bun's name....are you ready....Theodore Rex (T-Rex for short). Remember, my son is the fossil hound-if you google him, Mr. Banker, you will find a pic of the rare whale fossil he found after Hurricane Isabel. He was even on CNN.

But, back to what's really important, DOND (just kidding)

I can't wait for the Christmas episode-have it set to record on my RVD or is that DVR?

Yvette: I think you have a terrific idea-a great way for Mr. Banker to give back to those that proudly serve.


My other son flies in tomorrow (I let him borrow my broom, according to hubby-he says I'm so generous, what a sweetie, always giving me a compliment)
So, I might not be posting until he flies back to Ole' VAy

Happy Holidays everyone!

Congratulations! Dollydeb

Mr. Banker-
It's a BOY! Linda, he shares the same b-day as your daughter and happy early b-day to you!

You know what, I don't even know his first name (sorta like Mr. Banker's first name....wait, Mr. Banker's first name is Scrooge, his middle name is Mud)

My son called before 3 AM and I could hear little bun crying in the background.....

See, Mr. Banker-he just entered the world and is ALREADY upset that you have yet to call his Nana and Grandpa and ALL of the rest of the bloggers.

Now, if you want to continue to make such a precious little bundle of joy, that's your choice, but, Mr. Banker, don't you feel just the bit eensy weensy guilty about that????

HI bloggers!

Posted by:dollydeb | December 20, 2008, 10:07 AM

Oh Dollybed how wonderful! A Little Bundle Of Joy, what a wonderful gift for Christmas. Enjoy!

PS: I was born on the 22nd, and my daughter Leanne was born on the 20th, she was my Christmas and Birthday present.

Posted by:Linda Caroots | December 19, 2008, 02:44 PM

 

For Casting, and Producers, and you too Mr. Banker

I want a Million Dollars for Christmas
Only a Million Dollars will do
Don't want a Five Thousand no dinky little amount, No Boy!
I want a Million to play with and enjoy

I want a Million Dollars for Christmas
I don't think any Producers will mind, do you?
Mr. Banker won't have to use his check book, cash will do
Just bring the Million Dollars cash through the stage door, that's the easy thing to do

I can see me now on the "Deal Or No Deal" stage, looking at Mr. Banker up the stairs
Oh what joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes
To see "Deal Or No Deal's" hero, Mr. Banker standing right next to me there

I want a Million Dollars for Christmas
Only a Million Dollars will do
No pennys, no half of a mill
I only would like 1 mill in new crisp fresh bills
And even some special offers for me too!

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers-
this post is a tad off topic (like that ever stops me)...
But, Mr. Banker, I wanted you to be the first to know.....
my DIL headed to the hospital this morning; which means SOON I'll be in grandma-land! Woo Hoo!

Now, back to DOND-since we now have a DVR, I can tape the Christmas Day showing of DOND. I'm sure it's gonna be a good one.

Mr. Banker, did you hide treats under the audience's seats this time?

I am an soldier in the Army. I watch your show every chance I get. Being stationed in Korea I can't always catch it. I want a chance to bet you the banker. There are no casting calls for the show though. I deal or no deal made a trip around the world, but didn't go to any base and recruit anyone from the armed forces. I am hoping to get the chance once I get back to the states this next January. Will you give me the chance.

Look at you Mr. Banker
You keep all the Contestants blood pressure up
Making offers like there all good ones, I call 'em like I see 'em
I know what you are, and what you are, Mr. Banker is

You're a Contestantizer
Oh Contestantizer
Oh You're a Contestantizer Mr. Banker

You'll think you've got me going, you're oh so quick with the offer's
And you'll think I can't do it, that I can't say "Deal" or "No Deal"
Also that I need time to think, You Contestantizer
You make offers like a champion
Too bad for you, just can't find the right combanation for me
I guess one day when you have a Contestant like me,
Is what is going to make you see you have met your match
It could be easy Mr. Banker
Don't mistake me as a sucker
To think that I will be your next victim
Would be a big laugh, no not another one
Say it, play it however you want to
A big Zero I won't be, a Million Dollar winning will be my baby

You're a Contestantizer
Oh Contestantizer
Oh you're a Contestantizer Mr. Banker

You think I'll be crazy
And deal to the first offer
I got your crazy, I say "No Deal"
You thought wrong Mr. Banker
Maybe we both live in different worlds
Me a Contestant, and you a Contestantizer
It would be all good, and I could win a Million Dollars
But I can't because Casting hasn't called
You think they are a Contestantizer too?
Oh You're a Contestantizer Mr. Banker
And Casting is too


PS: You can hang on to your Million Dollars a while longer, Mr. Banker,
but when I get the call to be a Contestant you can kiss it Good-by. Ha ha Ha ha Ha ha
Just a little humor.

For Everybody,
Just a little funny story,

I saw Mr. Banker giving his list to Santa Claus
Underneath the stage staircase one night
He didn't see us watching TV
Watching the stairs to have a peep
He thought that we were watching $ amounts go up
In our family rooms, not ready to go to sleep

Then I saw Mr. Banker shake hands with Santa Claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white
Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If Howie had only seen
Mr. Banker giving his list to Santa Claus one night

Howie finally saw Mr. Banker giving his list to Santa Claus
Howie did! He really did see Mr. Banker giving his list to Santa Claus
And Howies gonna tell Casting that he wanted to give his list too
Oh, what a laugh it would have been if Howie hadn't got his list handed in
Now Mr. Banker says:
I didn't! I didn't! I really didn't want to keep Santa Clause all to myself
You gotta believe me! You just gotta believe me!
Come on, Howie, believe me! You just gotta believe me!

Posted by:andrew b | December 16, 2008, 08:24 PM

 

Hi Everyone,
This is for everyone,
But for Casting mostly...


Casting
We really want to stay
(but Bloggers the stage on the other side)
But we've got to go away
(but Bloggers the stage is right over there)
But we haven't been called, and it would be
(been hoping that you'd be Contestants)
So very nice to hear the phone ring
(i'll hold your #case, they're just like ice)
Our Supporters will start worry
(Soon to be Contestants whats your hurry)
Our Blogging friends will be pacing the stage
(Bloggers just imagine listening to the audience roar)
So really we better go till we've been called
(Bloggers please don't hurry)
Well maybe just a look around the stage once more
(put some thought into what it would be like winning)
The Supporters and Audience might scream
(Bloggers, they will be thrilled for all of you)
Say what's up those stairs
(just the Banker waitng to be the conqueror once more)
We wish we knew how to get the call
(Bloggers your eyes looks like your dreaming right now)
And break this spell
(i'll take your phone numbers again, and make the calls)
We ought to say "no, no, no sir"
(mind if i use the phone at this time)
At least Casting can't say us Bloggers didn't stop trying
(i've got a lot of Bloggers to call, not doing it sooner has hurt my pride)
Us Bloggers really can't stay we have to get home to answer Castings call
(oh Bloggers you won't have to wait much longer, you all are getting the call)
Your words have been
(how lucky that you Bloggers droped in)
So nice and warm
(check your caller ID the window should say NBC)
Our family will be very excited
(gosh you Bloggers are so deserving)
They will be waiting there at the door
(waves upon the media will be swirling)
Casting you've really been grand
(we thrill when we think how great the show will be)
Us Bloggers hoped you would finally see
(how could we have made you wait so long)
There's bound to be talk tomorrow
(think how exciting the "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" show will be)
At last we'll be able to be Contestants on our favorite show
(Good Luck to the "Mr. Banker's Bloggers)

Note: Margarita was going to say No Deal until the flying lessons were offered. So Margarita didn't get the 100K case.


Also, if you think NBC is the worst offender when it comes to blowing great moments, watch this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dYjAjOHaTc

That is inexcusable conduct. No ifs, ands, or buts. Howie is completely amazed when people "call" a case, which is never more than 25:1 against, and Drew sounds like he's at the bar drinking when the player breaks odds of 10,000:1 against (this showcase was going to be in the 20,000 to 30,000 range)?

Good Afternoon Mr. Banker, and Everyone,

For Everybody:

Thumpety thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Over the stage of "DOND".

Casting, the Contestant caller knew
The Bloggers are here to stay,
So Casting said, "Let's call the Bloggers
And we'll have some fun
Now before I leave for the day."
Down to the "Deal Or No Deal" stage,
With a cell phone in his hand,
Dialing this number, that number, here and there all
Around the stage saying,
Come be a Contestant if you can.
I will lead them to the "DOND" stage of this town
Right up to Howie's spot.
Then Casting paused a moment when
He heard Mr. Banker holler "Stop!"
For Casting the Contestant caller
Had to hurry on their way,
But he waved goodbye saying,
"Don't you cry,
I'll be back to get you for the show today."
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Look at Casting go.
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Over the stage of "DOND".

Hey, Andrew B., imagine how upset the banker will be when someone FINALLY wins the $1M cash prize during a regular game with only one $1M case!!! He will probably quit this blog forever, LOL.

Mr. Banker, there is one thing that I like about you...you've made some creative offers in the past. I liked it when you offered Mary Banford that "Wicked" package offer, after having met her personally in Salt Lake City when I auditioned for this show on April 12, I think she was satisfied with her decision. I also liked it when you offered Margarita Montijo those flight lessons in that small airplane! You're like a walnut...hard on the outside, soft on the inside, LOL.

Good Evening Mr. Banker, Casting, and Blogging Friends,

Hi Nick and all my Bloggin friends,

I dreamed last night that Casting was baking phone number cookies. Maybe their phones aren't working, and they want the aroma of fresh baked cookies in the air to travel and tell us we are going to be Contestants, you think??? December is the month for baking, Christmas you know. It's just a dream now, but if it's a dream that comes true lets hope that when they eat those cookies our phone numbers are embeded in their memory.

Well, now we've seen the MASSIVE FAIL in Holland...

From dond.co.uk, we get the news that somebody sold 300K for only 16,000! Their target was 150K...Hey. Isn't 300,000/2 = 150,000?

Just to get a bit of background...Linda was *really* ticked off by the time the .20 and 300,000 stood alone. Enough to say a four-letter word. And I don't mean open or case.

When the 300K was revealed, Linda closed it as if it was Pandora's Box.

Hello Mr. Banker,

Mr. Banker Santa, slip a note under the door to Casting, for me
I have been an very good girl, and a Contestant I would like to be
Mr. Banker Santa, hurry down the stairs to greet me when I'm a Contestant, alright
Mr. Banker Santa, a Million Dollar bag of money will do too, greens are true blue
I will be waiting by Howie on the stage for the other offers no matter how mere
Mr. Banker Santa, and hurry down the stairs to greet me to tonight
Think of all the fun I could have with a Million Dollars, and that I don't want to miss
Think of all the things I could do for my family with money, love, and a kiss
I really do want a good game in wits with you
Let's see if you believe you can win in matching intellect with me
Hurry down your chimney like staircase when I'm a Contestant, alright
And have Casting call me to be a Contestant tonight.

You already said that, Mark, and didn't quit posting. And also, you didn't say Mad Mark. :P

Posted by:andrew b | December 15, 2008, 03:19 PM

 

Let me clarify something:

I WAS a fan at one point. Not the #1 fan, but a fan, is all. I wasn't totally obsessed with the show, but I did enjoy watching it at one point. But then things went downhill and I gradually lost interest. I won't be crying when the show is gone. Nothing lasts forever, you know. But Mr. ?, you have no right to say those things. Clearly, you have no idea what the hell you're talking about. I lost my faith in this show a while ago. I am not a college clown (for the record, I'm an honours student where I go to school), and that Christian schoolboy comment was just uncalled for. For shame. You think I'm the one that's wrong? It is YOU who is wrong, and on many levels too. Listen, if you wanna dish the dirt, we can do it elsewhere. Enough of this crap. If anything, I was just a person who was freely expressing my opinions about the show and its flaws, of which it has many. But you failed to understand that, Mr. ?, because your stupid insults blindsided you.

Consider this my last post on this blog. Ever. Happy holidays.

-Mark.

Hello Mr. Banker, Casting, and Producers,
I hope this tune gets stuck in your heads

Oh, the "Deal or No Deal" stage will be frightful,
But the Money would be so delightful,
And since "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" have no place to go,
Call us Casting, Call us Casting, Call us Casting.

Our love of the "DOND" show doesn't show signs of stopping,
And we thought of some Numbered Cases for popping;
Us bloggers spirits are high, don't let them be turned down low,
Call us Casting, Call us Casting, Call us Casting.

When we finally get the call to be Contestants we'll say ALRIGHT!,
With how long we have waited it seems like we're out in a storm;
Hoping to be Contestants, we are keeping our fingers crossed tight,
All the hope and wishing makes us "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" hearts feel warm.

The fire we feel for the "Deal Or No Deal" show is undying,
And, Casting, we will never do any good-bye-ing,
As long as Mr. Banker and "Deal Or No Deal' is on, we'll love them so.
Call us Casting, Call us Casting, Call us Casting.


PS: Merry Holidays to All at "Deal Or No Deal".
Now you can reciprocate Casting by calling us to be Contestants.
That would be a wonderful holiday wish from you to us.

Hi Bloggers and Mr. Banker-
love the recent posts on here.

Dawn-keep up the faith.
Richard-as they are taping new episodes this week, I HOPE Mr. Banker (aka intern) gives us a little tidbit here in the blogger trenches.

Linda-keep up with those witty comments-I Love 'em.

?-great insight about Mad Mark-except one point. But, I have a hunch he will clarify your faux pas and make a correction.

Happy Monday folks!

Soon it will be time for another fake banker post to promote their Christmas show.

Why don't we spend some time making up some dopey Santa Claus comments that they can incorporate in the post?

Here's mine.

I'll be sure to offer the players a special Christmas stocking this year. They can have their choice of bituminous or antracite.

I have been witness to all this particular blog has had to offer for quite a while now. I am struck especially by a poster who has dubbed himself "mad mark." Never in my (many) years have I come across a person so obsessed with a show that they swear to other bloggers that they hate it. The amount of time and effort this college clown has put into ripping on this particular show is all the evidence needed to crown him Deal or No Deal's #1 fan.

Marky Mark, you are clearly in tune with pop reality tv culture, in that everyone loves a villian...but don't for a second think that any of these bloggers are buying it. Everyone here knows that you would be probably the most heart broken cat in the world if this great show did indeed get cancelled.

Drop the act, make the 20 minute hike to the ocean from Irvine, take in a sunset, and then come back to us with a new and mature attitude.

Oh, and drop the whole "mad mark" thing. A Christian college boy can do better than that.

Hello "Gator" the big piece missing of this blog "Come Back",

Breaker Breaker 1-9 got your Ears on? What's your twenty, Big Buddy Banker? My "Handle" is "Waitin For The Call Linda Caroots". Have you had your "Mud" today? I want to be a Seat Cover on the "Deal Or No Deal" stage as a Contestant. I won't be a "Rubbermecker", I'll "Put The Hammer Down" and get on with the game, and stay in the "Hammer Lane" and then I'll take over the right lane. Everyone will be "Sandbagging", so they won't miss how Mr.Banker uses "Schnider Eggs" to try and keep a Million Dollars out of my hands. "NBC" will use "Kicker/Boots" for this show cause this one is going to be a "Fender Bender" for Mr. Banker.

PS: We "Mr, Banker's Bloggers" will "Catch you on the flip-flop".

PS: Hey "Good Neighbor" Bloggers

Mr. Banker-I missed you. The GOLDDIGGER booth was in Chicago on Ellen. I looked all over the video for you and didn't see you.

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers!

Welcome Back LB and Marshax3 and Jofus, too.

Eric-I almost totally agree with you. I LOVE the daytime version and the speed in which decisions are made. I also liked the speed version of the Prime Time DOND (altho having every episode like that would become boring eventually-just as an entire hour per contestant has gone a bit too far, IMHO). I'm referred to as the energizer bunny and when I taught my team and I would literally run in the hallway to get from classroom to classroom).

I also like the theme weeks for the daytime version. A nice addition!
The BLOGGERS theme week will be the BEST!

Sooooo, Eric, did you read my comments about the length of the episodes?

Jofus: Thanks so much for the info on the airing of the Prime Time episodes. Gotta tape 'em for sure!

LB-don't give up, they are taping more episodes this week, so MAYBE we will get some attention for Mr. Banker and Nick.

Hi bloggers!

Still waiting on "the call".......

No, not Mr. Banker's call (altho that would be awesome)....
Still waiting on the call from my son saying I'm a grandma! My DIL is more than ready.

Mr. Banker-do you have any kids?

Posted by:dollydeb | December 13, 2008, 10:13 AM

 

"and you know what the best part of the daytime version is? The contestant has no support group to help him or her."

Yeah. No support group would have let Chelsea Drake take 275K (= FAIL) unless they were even more brainless than the person they're supporting. Which, sadly, is usually true anyways.

In fact, it was rerun today, so I jumped at the chance to record the ignominious MASSIVE FAIL.

Has anyone noticed that out of the five players who sold 500K, *three* of them had 100K or 250K backing it up in the final two? That is a *long* way away from the 2/21 theoretical probability.

Which just proves the IQ of the typical DonD contestant can be found on the front of one of the cases. Usually, one of the ones with one digit. [EVIL LAUGH]

Posted by:andrew b | December 12, 2008, 10:51 PM

 

Dawn Mays,

I bet you and Dollydeb haven't forgotten about my negative comments towards DOND back in February. Well you know what? Dawn Mays and dolly-deb, whether you want to admit it or not, The daytime version is a lot better than the soon-to-be-outta here primetime version. It's fast paced, the contestants are not wild or over-the-top with their emotions when something good happens and you know what the best part of the daytime version is? The contestant has no support group to help him or her. Don't be surprised if the daytime version adds a $1,000,000 case. That would increase the daytime version's popularity. What do you think?

Until next time
Eric

P.S. Mad Mark, Happy late birthday. Did you get what you want?

Posted by:Eric | December 12, 2008, 10:39 PM

 

The Banker and the DOND gang is on Hiatus so that's why we have not heard a peep out of him or Nick, but keep the faith, they will return soon. Hope all the faithfuls and hanging in and doing fine in spite of the sad state of our economy right now. Im still unemployed but ok, and I do read the blogs weekly, just dont post as much anymore. Sending a warm hug from LA hope everyone has a great weekend, ttfn...LB

I bet you are still wondering about how Gottfried Schmidt spoiled your childhood. I think you are to embarrased to find out. Whenever you are ready, just have your producer contact me regarding contestant arrangements and I will tell you, WHEN MY APPEARANCE ON DEAL OR NO DEAL IS RECORDERED FOR AIRING! P.S. I also have a picture which helps depict the story of how Gottfried influanced your childhood.

Morning Mr. Banker,

Rockin around the "Deal Or No Deal" stage,
At the Christmas party show
Money Cases held where you can see
Every one tries to tell you not to stop
Rocking around the "Deal Or No Deal" stage,
Let the Christmas "DOND" show box ring
Later we'll have to say "Deal", or "No Deal" Oh My!
And we'll do some Supporter talking.

Mr. Banker will get a empty pocket feeling
When you hear him call for a bank statement
Everyone's voices at "DOND" singing let's be jolly,
Deck the "DOND" stage with boughs of money
Rocking around the "Deal or No Deal" stage,
Audience screaming "Deal" merrily
And now, all have a happy holiday

Linda, Judyx3, Dawn. Marshax3, Jan, Richard, and many more...
We can retain a bright and cheery attitude here!

And, Mad Mark-happy birthday. Are you a bit cranky because you didn't get the present you wanted-a personal shout out from our own Mr. Banker?

Have faith-I'm sure one day he will.

Okay folks, don't forget the Angel Tree and Toys for Tots Toy Drive-this need crosses all barriers and differences.

MI may be the pits right now, but remember, from every pit comes the potential to become a beautiful tree! In fact, I took another bag of groceries to the local food bank (CAH) this morning-an easy way to bring a smile to a needy face.

Mr. Banker-why don't you do the same for your area? I hear LA is in dire straights as well.

Eric you and Mad Mark are DOND's number 1 and number 2 on DOND's Naughty List, since I now know MM is Jewish, you are the shows top two Negative Fans that always find the time to post.

Personally I don't Believe DOND is being Canceled, Hiatus maybe, not gone forever, so you guys still have something to look forward to critic, if that's what you call what you do when you blog.

There is no other game show as intriguing as "DOND"
Daytime, everyday "Deal Or No Deal" is mine to watch
You know it's excitement at your finger tips, yeah
Nightime, once or twice a week is such a thrill!
In the daytime, or in the night time
Each and every daytime, and night time,
Oh such a delight....WOW!!!, "Deal Or No Deal"
Ohhhh in the daytime, and in the night time
What an Exciting Show... Oh Yeah!!!!!

It's time to give up.

Seriously.

The show is getting shelved in January. Surely that means they're not looking for any new contestants.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I seriously doubt you'll be getting that all-important call anytime soon. Unfortunately, this applies to all of you would-be contestants as well. Miracles can happen, but I can't see any miracles happening in this case. Therefore, I think it's time to give up this impossible dream.

Expect a rant about this on my own blog later. I just can't hold it in any longer.

Good Morning Mr. Banker,

What's up with your blog Mr. Banker? There's hardly any bloggers on, and no more than a few post...huh Halloween has been over, so it's time you move on to a new post Mr. Banker. When you think about it there is nothing else left to say about your last post.
Tell us some gossip you might have heard about your "Mr. Banker's Bloggers" possibly becoming Contestants on "Deal Or No Deal".

Have a great day Mr. Banker and all my Blogging Friends.

Well...again.

Our contestants blow big chances so often, even those who don't EPICALLY FAIL.

$10, $1,000 vs. $250,000 = $40,000? Um...no.

The offer that arose from the $10 opening was $121,000. You gave up a triple-or-nothing shot, with 2:1 odds in favor of the triple. That is losing strategy.

HI Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers!

Bloggers-do you think our own Mr. Banker has been moonlighting?
I mean, on this morning's news with Nancy Pelosi, she was asked "Deal or no Deal". Check it out-it's true. That was the caption that accompanied the interview.

So, Mr. Banker moonlighting or no moonlighting?

Have a super duper day, Bloggers!

Mr. Banker

All I want for Christmas is to be a contestant.
All I want for Christmas is too see all the faithful bloggers get our chance to beat the Banker at his own game.

If there is a Santa Clause and I believe there is! I want him to leave each Producer and Casting Department person a nice letter telling them how nice all the bloggers on the Bankers blog and Nicks blog are and how They should call us for our very own fan club show!!!
Now that will make a great show!!!

Posted by:NameDawn Mays 765-730-3130 | December 08, 2008, 07:54 PM

 

Hi Mr. Banker,


I don't want a lot for Christmas, there's just one thing I need
I don't care about having presents underneath the Christmas tree
I just want numbered cases of my own, more than you could ever know
Make my wish come true, all I want for Christmas is to be on stage with you.

I won't ask for much this Christmas, not even snow
I'm going to keep on waiting for the call and watching the "DOND" show
I will make a list of my lucky numbers from 1 through 26
Thinking how the lights will be shining so brightly on the "DOND" stage
And how the sound of the Audience clapping hands will fill the air
Imagining how everyone is cheering, and hearing the telephone ringing
Mr. Banker won't you make me an offer I really need
Won't you please make my dream come true for me

I don't want a lot for Christmas just to be a Contestant is all I'm asking for
I just want to pick numbered cases from the Models right there on the DOND stage floor
Oh I just want io win a Million Dollars of my own more than "Deal or No Deal" Casting could ever know
Producers, Casting, make my wish come true
Mr. Banker all I want for Christmas is to match my intellect against you

Mr. Banker, since your blog has become a mini-internet family of sorts, I thought I'd share in the good news:
I just got off the phone with my sister and guess what-my nephew got engaged last nite (we never thought he'd settle down) and the best part was the way in which he proposed.

In his town they have a festival of lights where you pay a fee and drive thru the lightshow.
Well, he called ahead and had them blink the phrase- Caren, will you marry me as they drove thru. SOOOOOOOOOOO romantic!!!

Now, Mr. Banker, I hope you can help me with coming up with a super special wedding gift for them! hint hint hint

I totally agree with you Banker, You are the Boss of the show. Of course someone was bound to get the million.w/9 cases the odds are way on the contestants favor. It should be done the old fashioned way only 1 1million dollar case and they'll crack under pressure. my regards to you banker you do a hell of a job.

Lots of snow in the midwest-i.e., lots of Mr. Bankers falling from the sky.

Let it flake, let it flake, let it flake!

Dawn:
I'm with your-welcome back Mitchell and congrats on your new house. Hope you didn't get a loan with our own Mr. Banker (I've heard he's unreliable, gggg)

Good morning Mr. Banker:
Jofus- got it.

Okay, Mad Mark-I hope you take what I am going to say in stride-it's meant to be said in the kindest sense of the word.
Here goes: Please try to think of a famous (and i use that word lightly-remember, even lucifer is well known) person that has a negative attitude. That ONE person has managed to almost single-handedly bring down the world in less than a decade. Well, it seems to me, that honesty about the status of affairs is important. BUT, positive attitudes encourage more positive attitudes. So, Mad Mark, I hope you are not responsible for bringing down our beloved DOND. By this, I mean you might get your name in the record books (much like someone else that has caused a negative avalanche across the world), but is that really a victory?

Posted by:dollydeb (the sage, or is that parsley. outa thyme now) | December 05, 2008, 08:05 AM

 

Mad Mark,

I wouldn't be surprised if these last three remaining episodes each have an epic fail considering the rumors of DOND'S demise.


Until next time
Eric


P.S. I think the syndicated version of DOND is going to be around for a while.

Posted by:Eric | December 04, 2008, 10:57 PM

 

Hi too all !!!
OMG is it really Mitch?I am so so glad your back, Congrats on the new house!!!I hope your still a Indiana Resident!!!!
As you can tell. You have missed alot,and there is new people and you will see some have strong opinions. They are harmless, don't let them scare you off!!

Dollydeb and LB myself Marshax3 Judyx3 and the other regulars are still waiting on thier call including me .
Linda ,Ct,Kim, Dollydeb and the rest of us are hoping for a show that has all of us on the blog on there.

Hey write me back glad ur back!!!

Posted by:Dawn Mays 765-730-3130 | December 04, 2008, 10:16 PM

 

And this is why, Jofus...

Today's DonD final two? 10 vs. 100,000. Offer? $26,000. And he deals out the $100K.

Daytime DonD will never survive with such poor contestants. Even with a second amount of $10, an offer worth only 26% of the book, with only two cases remaining, is completely unacceptable.

Posted by:andrew b | December 04, 2008, 05:33 PM

 

Hello All,

Mister Banker....
Now I know he's a guy who can put tears in your eyes
Let's say a MILLION times or more
Oh but every time he would make another offer
We love Mr. Banker more than before

Now there's Money, Cars, Trips, and maybe a Home Gym
Many offers just to name a few
Mr. Banker has lots of offers, we'll have to make a choice and tell him
I'm sure there's a choice for you

Contestants watch what you say,
Don't pick on Mr. Banker, give him a nice hello
He's making up offers on his own
So we have an oppertunity to take it and glow

Jofus, I'm willing to bet that if you were to do that, the answer would still be a resounding NO DEAL (slams down button cover).

Face it buddy, the show is dead. It's run its course. There's nothing left in the tank. Kiss it goodbye, and move on. Boy, am I ever glad that NBC No Dealed DoND. Best decision they've made in 1,000 years.

-Mad Mark.

Posted by:Mad Mark | December 04, 2008, 01:06 PM

 

I have read that the Wednesday 8 to 9 P.M. (Eastern) time slot on NBC will open-up at the beginning of March after the last episode of "Knight Rider 2009" airs on February 25.

Now you go down to the NBC executive offices and slip some green pieces of paper to the men and women in charge, preferably green pieces of paper with lots of zeros on them, so "DOND" gets that timeslot starting in March.

Get it?

(I expect you to reply "Got it!")

Greetings Mr. Banker,
One day I would like to go from side to side of the "Deal Or No Deal" stage as a
Contestant, and when that happens the right side of the Money Board belongs to me!


Left Side, Right Side

The Audience sings "No Deal"

"While Mr. Banker is watching his $'s go down"

Morning Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers!

Posted by:dollydeb | December 04, 2008, 07:51 AM

 

And in any case, why is the banker complaining that Tomorrow got handed the 1M, when the banker is the one who put the 9M on the board?

This guy is claiming that 9M is too easy, 5M is too lucky, but wants people to win with only 1M. If you're complaining about them being lucky with only 5M, imagine the anger fest if someone gets it naturally...

Posted by:andrew b | December 03, 2008, 09:43 PM

 

"Alright, alright. I'm back. I have emerged from seclusion to face the music. A second contestant has ever so rudely walked away with a million dollars. I will not say that she won it, or even that she earned it--it was HANDED to her. I gave her nine million-dollar cases, for Heaven's sake!" I completely disagree with that...Katie Henslin had 13 $1M cases but sold her $1M case for $449K in spite of her husband telling her no deal. Tomorrow Rodriguez earned every penny of what was in her case fair and square. You're just a nasty ol' crabapple, Mr. Banker! Or should I call you Mr. Grinch now that the holidays are upon us?

"A trained chipmunk could have won the million." Good luck on training a chipmunk to visually understand what is going on here. I think you're talking about Alvin and the chipmunks, LOL!!!!

"Some day I hope to come across an adversary who can play the game the original way and make it even remotely exciting." BRING IT ON. Mr. Banker, I'll make you sorry that you met me when I become a DOND contestant in 2009.

"I tell ya, It's really tough being so intellectually superior to all those around you." Oooh, big words, LOL!! Be more concise and brief next time, don't try to be so verbose. I have a Bachelor's degree that proves I'm smarter than you are, violin-playing skills to prove I'm more talented than you are, and I don't hide in the shadows like you do.

HI Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers;

Mad Mark, that may still be a rumor-as a blog is only that-a blog. I have learned that nothing in the world of TV entertainment is set in stone, but I can still hope that DOND will continue in one form or another-I love the show, the concept, and many of the episodes.

BTW-if it is truly on the edge of demise, then why are they still taping?

Here's a link to the next taping dates? If that doesn't work, then click on my name.

http://www.jampackedtv.com/

Posted by:dollydeb | December 03, 2008, 04:59 PM

 

Marsha, if that's the case, then that's just sad. I'm sorry, there's no other way to put it. I often question the maturity level of some of the people who post here, and that was a very immature statement. For shame.

And now, here's an update about the status of DoND from our friends at http://www.buzzerblog.com :

Well, if youre a fan of NBCs primetime Deal or No Deal, your time for the show is winding down. Its off the schedule (for how long remains to be seen) starting January 6th, but NBC has put out the remaining episodes and their information. Its nothing that special beyond the Christmas episodes we previously put pictures up for. First off, the show is on a month-long hiatus currently. New episodes will pick up on Christmas, December 25th. That Christmas episode will air at 8PM ET.

They are getting all the episodes they can out of the way as soon as possible after that, though. The next one will be December 26th. Kobe Bryant will be featured in this game for a top prize of $2,000,000. The final episodes, unless something changes really soon, will come on December 29th with a two hour edition. Three games are going on during that, and the top prize will be back down to $1,000,000. The final episode will air on Monday, the night that has always been a hit for the show. I really dont want to defend the show too much because I do believe NBC and Endemol royally screwed with Deal or No Deal to the level that they need to completely redo the show to salvage it, if it comes back at all, but why it was moved from Mondays I will never understand. Its always done well on Mondays. No crap the ratings suck on Fridays. All the ratings suck on Fridays. So for Deal fans, be sure to check it out because theres no word on when and if itll come back.

And there you have it. One thing about showing 3 games in one episode: At least one of them will feature an Epic Fail. That always seems to be the case.

With all of that being said, I'm going to throw it over to you guys to discuss. Actually, the correct word should be mourning, since the show will be leaving the airwaves soon. Goodbye DoND, and good riddance.

-Mad Mark.

Hello Mr. Banker, sorry this is for Mr. Scott St.John, but be my guest and read.

Good Morning Mr. Scott St.John,

I have decided to come to the one and only greatest Producer of a TV Game Show,
"Deal Or No Deal". They say "Flattery Will Get You Anything", you can't blame someone
for trying, but I meant everything I said, really. Girl Scouts Honor (yes, I was a Girl Scout)

Written for Mr. Scott St.John:

Jolly Mr. Scott St.John
We greet you today,
You are such a special Producer,
Please let us come to the show and play.
We have been so very good waiting for the call
Casting seems to not doing what they should.
Now we want to be Contestants and celebrate with you
While we're on "Deal Or No Deal" and play.

Mr. Banker's Bloggers wants to win a Million Dollars, well wouldn't you
Linda C.,Dollydeb,Kim,Marsha,Dawn,LB,Andres just to name a few.
Mr. Scott St.John, please give us a call
To all us Bloggers one and all.

For this great day of cheer.
It would bring joy and happiness,

Jolly, happy, gentle Mr. Banker's Blogging fans,

Hi Bloggers (please take note, Mr. Banker-no salutation for you, since you have once again abandoned us {sigh})-


Snow today snow tomorrow snow the next day-
Gee, Mr. Banker, with all the FLAKES falling from the sky, you'd think, for sure, you'd be one of them.

(after all, you are nothing but a big flake in your office in the sky)

What do we have to do to get you to post another post?

1. ...stand in the snowbarefoot and beg? (done that one)
2. ...shovel the snow in summer sandals (yup, did that yesterday)
3. ...take out the trash while barefoot? (checkeroo)
4. ...be nice to the guys in the big snowplow trucks that push a wall of snow into our driveways.......

well, NOPE, not that one-gotta draw the line somewhere.

You probably said you were here to stay...and then the douchebags came on the show.

I'm sure that almost all the contestants who come on the show are douchebags in one way or another. Ashley wasn't even stupid at all until she made the "bet" that she could refuse 260K - and then didn't. And that's only one offense...plenty of others have an entire hard drive worth of offenses.

Posted by:andrew b | December 01, 2008, 11:13 PM

 

Yeah, I'm for sure on the naughty list. But do I care? Most certainly not.

Why, you ask? The answer is simple - I'm Jewish, which means that I don't celebrate Christmas. I celebrate Hanukkah, which lasts for 8 days and nights, and does not have a naughty or nice list for all that celebrate it.

Love me or hate me, I'm here to stay, so "Deal" with it. Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Okay Judy

How am I No. 2 on Santa's naughty or nice list? Am I sometimes negative towards the show? Most of the time I am but that doesn't mean I'm No. 2. The banker is No. 1, not Mad Mark. He's always the one who's trying to make sure the contestants don't walk out with a lot of money.

Until next time
Eric


P.S. Linda, Deal or No Deal being nominated for people's choice award? Are you kidding me? Nominated for People's Choice Award. Last time I checked, there were rumors DOND (the primetime version) was being cancelled.

Mr. Banker

Hi fellow Bloggers and Bloggettes

I peeked into Santa's Book of Naughty or Nice List...

Mad Mark you're number One

Eric you're number Two

Andrew you're number Three

Mr Banker you're number Four

I had to get out of there, I heard Santa walking down the hallway.

Morning Bloggers,

You know...
I think Mr. Banker is a funny guy with all his little sharp remarks
He wants is send you home with the least amount of money possible;
When in reality he is probably full of words of wishes and laughter...
And that is "Merry Christmas" and a heart felt "HO HO HO"

Hi Mr. Banker-my my my this board has been quiet today. Where is everyone?

Mr. Bankre-so far, I've been on two NBC shows (one local one national)-

DOND would be perfect for three times a charm,
but only with the condition that ALL of the bloggers are on at the same time with me.

We stick together like thick glue (after all, hubby says I tend to be a little thick).

Come on, bloggers-let's help Mr. Banker's ratings soar!

Posted by:dollydeb | November 30, 2008, 03:29 PM

 

Good morning Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:

Linda, you have a great idea-I'd love to hear Mr. Banker's voice. In fact, he could use one of those mikes that alters the voice, so his offer could waffle between a voice like kermit and a voice like james earl jones-it would appeal to a broad range of fans.

Happy almost December folks!

Posted by:dollydeb | November 30, 2008, 09:35 AM

 

So it appears that The Deal has been relegated to special status. Good. It was becoming overkill already. The best thing to do would probably to let it rest for a while due to all of the overexposure it received. Nice move by NBC.

In other news, the show that's replacing DoND, Howie Do It doesn't look good. My dad saw a commercial for it on NBC, and he said it looked absolutely AWFUL. It's basically an updated version of the Ashton Kutcher-created Punk'd, only on this show, people get "Howied" rather than Punk'd. It sounds pretty stupid and lame, if you ask me. I give it a week before it gets the old yankeroo.

That's all for now. Have a good day.

Best,
-Mad Mark.

Good Morning Mr. Banker,

It's cold and rainy here in Ohio, with snow and icey rain on the way. I am trying something new this morning. I am clicking my heels together and saying "There's no where like the "Deal Or No Deal" stage, there's no where like the "Deal Or No Deal" stage. Do you think it will work? I would love to feel the warmth of the stage lights, and all the hot cash I could win.

Linda-great tune. I could hear it clear over here in MI-land. I'm sure Mr. Banker could hear it over in his LaLa-land (or was he simply dreaming?)

Richard-great ideas for the DOND crew. I love the idea of Mr. Banker's phone ringing right away after a commercial break. I totally agree-a faster pace is needed.

dollydoings@aol.com

Posted by:dollydeb | November 29, 2008, 08:04 AM

 

Sounds like NBC is worried that the ratings are too poor for the evening show, but maybe they can "special" schedule it back to health.

http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117996456.html?categoryid=14&cs=1&nid=2562

What they need is a faster pace (so they can squeeze in a few bloggers), less gimmicks, none of this wait for the answer after ten commercials crap. No more "we will find out ... after"s.

When you come back from commercials, the first thing you should hear is the phone ring! Immediate tension.

Maybe they could add a short tip of the week segment on how to play the game better.

Put the timer on the contestants to respond. But allow them one timeout per show for those difficult choices.

You do know that those aren't the *only* ten things that will happen on the Christmas show? :D

Posted by:andrew b | November 27, 2008, 11:21 PM

 

Sorry, DD. I don't have a list, and the stupid people aren't worth mentioning anyway.

BTW, if you're looking for a good show to watch, consider switching over to CBS to watch The Amazing Race. It's a fantastic show, and one of the few reality shows that doesn't leave a bitter taste in your mouth or makes you want to puke. And just like DoND, it's also played for a million dollars. In fact, it's one of the hardest-fought competitions for that amount of money on television. Definitely a must watch. The hell with DoND; Amazing Race FTW.

As for the Christmas show, here's what will most likely happen:
1. The contestant will be one of those over-the-top types that makes you want destroy your TV set with their incessant screaming.
2. The audience will be given gifts totalling more than $2,500 in cash and prizes.
3. The contestant will either have a massive trainwreck or will sell a Power 7 amount for a small fraction of its value.
4. The contestant might actually make a good deal by selling a small amount for $150,000 or more.
5. You'll hear lots of Scrooge refernces when it's Banker time. Plus, lumps of coal may be used or will appear.
6. Santa, complete with sleigh and elves will appear.
7. The models will be dressed appropriately, and the cases will look like wrapped Christmas gift boxes.
8. The set will be decorated accordingly.
9. There will be no references at all to Hanukkah or Kwanzaa.
10. The game might take forever to play because the people at Endemol have never heard of a process known as editing.
And there you have it. See, I've done you a favor. All of these things are going to happen on the Christmas show, so now that you know that, you don't need to watch it anymore. I just prevented you from wasting 2 hours of your life that you'll never be able to get back. You all should be thanking me right now.

-Mad Mark.

Awwww, come on, Mad Mark:
I want specifics. A more detailed list, PLEASE!

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

Mr. Banker, how did YOU spend your holiday?

Posted by:dollydeb | November 27, 2008, 07:21 PM

 

Actually, Eric, the show was quite good until she made a "bet" with the Banker that she wouldn't be taking the sixth offer, and then ended up taking it. And that offer was only 63.37% of book...How much tougher would the next offer have been at only $875 under the mean ($512,000 out of $512,875)? That is basically a mandatory take without strong instinct, or a very low IQ. :)

Posted by:andrew b | November 27, 2008, 03:25 PM

 

Mad Mark Andrew b,

Here's a riddle for you two?

What do Deal or no Deal and George W. Bush have in common?

They both lie to us and mislead at the same time and they won't be around in 2009.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Christmas episode was twice as bad as the Thanksgiving episode last night.


Happy Thanksgiving
Eric

P.S. Mad Mark, Andrew B. We should be called the three amigos.

Thank you Andrew, Eric, and Mad Mark,

But guys you will see me on the show, I don't really care if it is on Prime time or Daytime cause guys I just love the game I have stayed faithful and Determined,,,I will be on the game and I will be sure to put a shout out to you all!!!!

Now about last nights show the poor girl she had the 2 MILLION in her case, she just could'nt keep going but on her side she did take a nice chunk of change home,,,,

EVERYONE ENJOY YOUR FAMILY AND HAVE A WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING I AM THANKFUL FOR MEETING EACH OF YOU ON THIS BLOG !!!!! WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT THAT IS WHAT MAKES THIS GROUP SO MUCH FUN,,,,,,

Posted by:Dawn Mays 765-730-3130 | November 27, 2008, 11:29 AM

 

I have now personally sent what I have outlined after the show to NBC, and they had better listen to it and stop lying to their viewers.

But again, NBC has never listened to its fanbase before when we've angrily wrote them about spoiling Jessica, etc.

With the future of their show on the line, either we'll save it or NBC will prove just how much of a bunch of morons they are. I'm betting on the latter. Good riddance...

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers:

(now, let's see who can make a sick one outa that one)

Happy Turkey Day Everyone!

Oh boy, that was fun. Andrew, you're like this blog's answer to Mythbusters. But sometimes, you're a little bit too smart. No need to get all worked up about everything, though; this blog will be closed for business very soon. I'm just trying to have as much fun as I want here while it's still possible to do so. And for the record, I judge mostly by total money won and personality.

Forget the Banker's Blog. This is Call My Bluff, a revival of an old British game show of the same name. I say stuff, and then Andrew gets all mad, debunks it, and finds some sort of theory or explanation for it all. Great fun, innit?

Andrew, I advise you to get degrees in statistics, mathematics, and risk management, as you seem to excel greatly in these three fields. Either that, or join the cast of Mythbusters, because you seem to be rather adept at debunking things.

Eric, don't worry. I still think you're one of the reasons why I continue to post here. You're a pretty decent, level-headed fellow, and at least you don't try to kill me when I say something you don't agree with. I don't mind being your friend as a result. It's better to have one friend here than none, n'est-ce pas?

I don't know about you lot, I'm having lots of fun here. You all make me laugh so much; I love it! Screw the show, let's just have some fun here while we still can. And when this blog closes, you're welcome to post whatever you want on mine.

Andrew B,

And I thought the October from hell '07 was bad, November '08 is even worse. NBC and DOND mislead us again. I think I'll wait for the next good thing on NBC, Super Bowl XLIII in February because DOND won't be on the air in February.

Posted by:Eric | November 26, 2008, 11:20 PM

 

Unbelievable

Ashley had the two million dollars in her case and sold it for $260,000. Andrew B, I was right, For the second Thanksgiving in a row, a contestant sold the million dollar case. History repeated itself. Moral of the story: When NBC's January schedule left off DOND, it knew what it was doing.

Until next time
Eric


P.S. Mad Mark, sorry I said we were friends. I know you're angry. Andrew B, don't even mention Brooks Leach, he's the biggest joke in DOND history. Move along Nothing more to see here. And by the way Mad Mark, if rumors are true that DOND is cancelled, then why are we even here anymore????????????

Posted by:Eric | November 26, 2008, 11:11 PM

 

Oh..let's see who has won less than $500 on Deal or No Deal.

Brooks Leach's second game. How was that game played moronically in any shape or form, other than that of letting himself get blindsided by his own numbers instead of using them to win, which you don't seem to really care about anyways?

If you insult a group of people based on ONE trait, you will make a lot of unintentional insults that you WILL REGRET. DID THEY HAVE A CHOICE? Sure, Brooks could have taken the second offer, but how was he supposed to know that, and if he did that, the chances of being an idiot are far higher than if he goes on. All it really takes is for the game to not be an OPW (= ANY higher offer, or a higher amount in his case) and the guy's a moron.

Posted by:andrew b | November 26, 2008, 10:41 PM

 

Here's my problem, Mad Mark...

You seem to have a two-way personality..

In one mode, you insult every contestant who wins small money, then also slam contestants who you say should have gone on, but would have consequently risked running into the only desirable amount, and becoming a part of your turkey list anyways.

Quote:

"And I know exactly what will happen in that episode, thanks to some great spy work done by a friend of mine. Let's just say that it involves another idiot contestant making another bonehead move, similar to the kind of thing that has happened about 17 times on the syndicated version already."

So you say that Ashley made a bonehead move by selling her $2,000,000 tray. Well, the only other choice is No Deal, which risks running into the $2,000,000 tray and dropping down to 50,000, 1,000, 500, and 1. She could very well run into the 50,000 as well, then take home $500 and be on your turkey list anyways.

That is why I do not judge a contestant by the decisions made, because then how would you classify Marybeth? If she goes on to the end, she risks being a moron for leaving with $25. If she doesn't, she risks being a moron for abandoning her gut. Barring the fortune of you getting an OPW on stage, MM, you would likely fall into one of your own "idiot classes".

I would like to see you on the stage, playing a board containing $100, $300, $400, and $2,000,000. You are offered $444,000.

If you refuse the $444,000, you risk becoming a Mark77 under $500 idiot. If you take it, you risk becoming the idiot you described in your quote. You have to let this business rest somewhere. Please, give this thing up.

I knew about this show several months in advance. A friend whose mom was paid to be in the audience for this game told me about what happened. He said that some idiot sold a $2 million case for only $260,000. Looks like he was exactly right.

And now, in true Mad Mark fashion, it's time for those famous words:

WHAT A WASTE OF A PERSON!!!

'Nuff said. Let's hope this crapfest gets taken off the air very soon, because I am no longer in any capacity to be watching it. I haven't watched an episode in months, and I'm glad that I didn't. Please, if you've any sense at all, stop watching the show ASAP. It's pretty much over. Or, to put it in Thanksgiving terms, this turkey is officially cooked.

-Mad Mark.

What a Turkey, should have stuck it out with that board,but she looked up and was drowned by here supporters, they say that happens to turkeys. And that is the way the Turkey's carved.

Okay, okay. Stop twisting my arm. Here's my list:

Nos. 1 - 10 - Every idiot who won $500 or less playing Deal or No Deal. They are total wastes of people because they acted like fools, and ended up winning chump change because of their severe lack of judgement, greediness, etc.

There, I did it. Are you happy now?

One more thing: I don't even celebrate Thanksgiving because I'm Jewish.

And another thing: When was it decided that we were "best friends"? I was never informed of this decision.

Posted by:Mad Mark | November 26, 2008, 10:16 PM

 

I did know this was coming, but...

Okay, NBC...

Let me get one thing straight.

The promotion deal for this episode is a classic example of why your show is on the endangered list. YOU LIED.

The leading promo said "a record-shattering offer of $1,100,000!" There's one small problem! That 1.1M was outside of active play, where it is NOT a record-shattering offer, it being tied for third place with Matty's eighth offer in the playout. Kimberly's $1,240,000 and Matty's $1,600,000 take the top two spots. And you wonder where your ratings are going...honest networks keep them.

[ Switches to Ashley ]

As I began to suspect that this was indeed the 260/2M game I read about on DOND.co.uk, and not an actual game with a 1.1M offer in active play (seriously, is she going to play all the way to round 9 with no safety net? Get a life, NBC...), I was starting to think I may not have anything to attack her about.

Then after you played through round 6, I saw your defining statement: "I'm not going to take that offer." The banker said you would. As if the banker and the net being no better than $50,000 didn't give you a clue, you said "I bet you huge money I won't be taking that deal." Um...Ashley...I think you owe the banker some money. What were you thinking?!

C'mon Mad Mark It's Thanksgiving for cryin' out loud!!! Name me your top 10 ten turkeys in the show's history. The primetime version is outta here.

P.S. Mad Mark, we're best friends remember?

Posted by:Eric | November 26, 2008, 08:35 PM

 

Eric, you've hit the nail on the head as usual. Nice work.

As for my top 10 turkeys, I don't have any. There have been too many of these in this show's short history. Just mentioning the names of these idiots is enough to make my blood boil. There's your answer.

-Mad Mark.

Posted by:Mad Mark | November 26, 2008, 08:25 PM

 

Dawnmays,

I know you're bummed out about the cancellation of DOND and that you won't be able to get the show but you know what? DOND did itself in not from overexposure but from too many gimmicks like the mdm, over the edge contestants, and the October from hell 2007. Dawn Mays, there's always the syndicated version. It's a whole lot better than the soon-to-be defunct primetime version.

Until next time
Eric

P.S. Mad Mark, who are your top 10 turkeys in DOND history.

Posted by:Eric | November 26, 2008, 07:19 PM

 

Relax, Dawn...

I do not believe that DonD will be cancelled, at least until I manage to make it on the air myself and (hopefully) win it all.

On the trip over here to Georgia where I am staying briefly for Thanksgiving, the first album I listened to was Death Magnetic (of course...), and as the seventh track began, I finally noticed that....this is The Unforgiven 3.

So the first (4, "for") leads to the second (7), which leads to the third (25, or 4*7-3, but that's probably off the target, to whom a "for" is "given").

Spot 3 is of course the location of my anthem song which also lasts 6:25, spot 4 on album nine was the first song I heard from the album and it is also a Metallica tradition to have a ballad located there, which track seven is also. 3+4=7. Track four is named "The Day that Never Comes", which leads me to believe that the fourth millionaire will never come, as the "trilogy" of both the Unforgiven and DonD millionaires has been completed.

It's almost as if Death Magnetic was custom-designed to coincide with its owner, and also custom-written to be released on Ike's landfall...I continue to discover new signs every time I listen to it.

So I do not think that DonD will be cancelled at the time.

Posted by:andrew b | November 26, 2008, 06:14 PM

 

Dawn, I regret to inform you that these are not rumours. DoND is off of NBC's schedule for January, and rightfully so. This season, its ratings have been less than stellar, and I think it is finally time to lay this clunker to rest.

The show has run its course, and the lethal combination of badly-executed gimmickry, over-the-top contestants, overexposure, and overly drawn out games did this clunker in. I got sick of watching it because it was getting stale. As the article on BuzzerBlog said, DoND USA's (eventual) demise basically mirrors that of ABC's Millionaire back in the day. I really used to like this show in the beginning, but after all the the oversaturation, etc., my interest in the show gradually eroded. I must admit that I am not at all sad to see DoND USA go.

And there you have it. DoND is leaving the airwaves, and I am very much looking forward to it. To Dawn and other contestant hopefuls, best of luck getting on the syndie version. Hopefully you'll make it. And just for the record, I'm exactly half your age. But age is just a number, isn't it?

One more thing - if the DoND website and Banker's blog ever disappear, I may be able to offer all of you an alternative means of discussing all things DoND. Stay tuned for more information.

To the few "Debbie Downers" on this blog,

Get A Grip! It's not coming to an end. You know nothing of what you say. Primetime, Daytime, it's still "Deal Or No Deal". It doesn't matter what time it is on, DOND is on! Enjoy any show while it is on TV. Why waste your time saying it is being canceled. There is a saying:" Live For Today For Tomorrow May Never Come". Nothing is forever, duh. The character "Debbie Downer" I refered to is from "Saturday Night Live". She always acts negative about everything. I am not crushed if I never become a Contestant, because I enjoy watching the show, but I still would love to be a Contestant like so many others on this blog. So nothing you say brings me down. It just shows me a few of you are so desperate to have an audience to talk to, maybe because no body else will listen to you. But here is what it boils down to, some of you talk and talk an never say anything worth listening to. So many of us love this show!!! Evidently some of you don't. If the shoe fits wear it. No one is twisting your arm to watch DOND, surely your smart enough to change the channel. Try it, get out your remote manual and learn how to push the buttons on your remotes.

PS: Stop trying to act like your all that by using profanity Case 27

HI Mad Mark and Dawn:
I saw the same post. But,
I have one question (well, maybe two, or is it three?)

Anyway....
1. IF DOND Prime Time is truly being cancelled, then WHY are they still taping Prime Time episodes?
(some were taped last week, more scheduled for December).
2. IF the Daytime Version is to survive (the poor Hawaii bound contestant today-she sure didn't survive)-then why are they NOT taping the Daytime Version?
3. If everyone believes this, then WHY aren't they writing their congressman? (okay, a bit too farfetched with that one)...

Now, to put it all into perspective-lots of rumors float around in the TV world. I think sometimes rumors start to see what the fans think (remember, one very very popular prime time cartoon was yanked by the networks and then returned when the fans rallied).

So, with that in mind-
4. Where's the online petition to keep Prime Time DOND afloat?

(whoops, guess that was 4 questions, gggg)

happy turkey day, folks!

Hello everyone

This is Eric and I figure I ought to say something about the cancellation of Deal or no Deal. I'm just not sure I can do the serious "this is the end" thing, but I'll do what I can.


You know, if you think about it, this whole decline of DOND primetime began on March 12, 2007 when Hugh Neisler and Dave Atherton sold their million dollar cases. After that debacle, the quality of contestants started pushing their game too far and the show became too gimmicktry. And once Heather McKee won a penny, the bottom fell out of DOND and you knew it was just a matter of time before things completely fell apart for the show.


So now you know.


I want to thank the banker's blog for giving me this shot to express my thoughts and opinions(somtimes harsh) about the show and all my faithful bloggers for sticking with me even though I was sometimes negative about the show. It was nice to know that.


Despite all those long commercials, the random time changes, million dollar missions, Brooks Leach, and sometimes over-the-top contestants, it's been fun doing this. It's going to be rather strange not writing about my opinions about the show we all love Deal or no Deal.


I don't think I needed to be insane to keep watching the show, but it probably helped.


You know what, I think I'm going to give the syndicated version of DOND a chance to have a long successful run, It's fast-paced, the contestants are not over-the-top with their emotions, and the contestant has no support group to help them.

For the last time
Eric

Posted by:Eric | November 25, 2008, 10:47 PM

 

Seems to explain why we got the latest fake banker response and why he took almost 600 posts before then.

I thought the million dollar mission made the game to easy. Instead the banker started to really tighten his purse strings with his deal offers to compensate for the greater odds for the contestants.

The million dollar missions was when the show jumped the shark.

I would think that picking "overacting" contestants were another. The "normal" person doesn't relate to someone constantly screaming.

The low banker offers are in sharp contrast to the suddenly improved "what if" offers that are posted on the board after a deal is struck. Stating fairer bank offers > giving contestants statistically inferior ones is an offense to the more intelligent viewers, who understand concepts such as expected value or probabilities. I view those "what if" offers as deception, which detracts from the fairness of the game.

Early versions of DOND may have two contestants in a single hour. They slowed it down to one screaming contestant for a whole hour, or more! That was another mistake.

The dumbing down of the show (most obviously through all the million dollar missions) was the big mistake. The contestants really needed to smarten up. You notice there weren't any math professors chosen to pick cases.

When I first joined this blog, I offered bloggers a bunch of lessons on expected value and probabilities. For the most part, the bloggers preferred to "dream on", rather than understand the math. So I stopped doing that. Did you ever hear or see any of the actual contestants use math to explain their decisions?

NBC should have promoted some specials in instructing viewers how they could make better DOND decisions, if they get chosen. Maybe on or more dreamers would have made better decisions in preparation for their appearances. (Think of the potential DVD sales?)

Well if the average show watcher is a "dreamer", they saved a bunch of money with the banker giving statistically inferior offers, but they apparently lost the "dreamers" who kept seeing contestants fail, or settle for less.

Then they insult the viewer after a deal is struck by revealing that the next deal would have doubled or more.

But maybe their plan was to pick contestants who did not appear to be too swift mathematically, so they could keep costs (offers) lower.

DOND is essentially a simplistic game that could be played on many different intellectual, emotional, or financial goal levels.

Those of us who enjoyed the game on an intellectual level were annoyed by the variations away from the original concept. Those of you who were "dreaming" of millions were annoyed by the many losses, and your lack of being selected for years.

Your dreams were crushed by the banker, and promotional come-ons with no results.

Too bad DOND didn't figure out that contestants with 7 million dollar amounts on the board meant that there were a string of "losers" that crushed their viewers dreams, and each million reminded them of it.

We interrup this blog for some breaking news. We now go live to our roving reporter, journalism student Mad Mark in Montreal, Canada.

Friends, have I got some news for you. Read the following article from www.buzzerblog.com and weep - or laugh, which is what I did.

Its been rumored, but Primetime Deal or No Deals cancelation is coming closer to truth. NBC released their midseason January 2009 schedule and Deal or No Deal, one of two or three shows which has kept the network from utter ratings disaster over the past few years, is gone. Its been replaced by Howie Do It, a new reality show featuring Howie Mandel. I think its important to note that Daytime Deal or No Deal is in no way in danger of being canceled. Ratings went up yet again last week, to a 1.9, and really starting to challenge Who Wants to be a Millionaire?. Its Primetime Deal that is looking really ugly right now.

In almost a mirror of the rise and fall of ABC Millionaire?, Deal or No Deal looks to basically be dead. Obviously since the shows in syndication its not hard whatsoever to tape new episodes once stuff inevitably starts failing on their midseason schedule. Its just a shame to see it gone. A shame in a very vague sense. It was entertaining for the first two years. However, it really just died from Endemols fooling around with it. I dont even think over exposure hurt because ratings werent that bad when it was constantly on. I just think they tried so hard to get a millionaire it ruined the mystique of the show. Its not a show where people win often, its really hard to win. But they couldnt take it. From the missions to the overuse of unbearable gimmicks, the show just got to be too much.

So yeah, its a big sad to see it go, but we have the much much much better Daytime Deal to watch.

And there you have it. Discuss.

I was stunned when I saw the cover of this week's issue of People magazine and saw that they picked Hugh Jackman as "The Sexiest Man Alive" for 2008.

He is not The Sexiest Man Alive!

You Are, Mr. Banker!

Now you go to the offices of People magazine before they come up with their 2009 list, slip the editors some $$$, so next year at this time, I can finally see on the cover the man who is really the World's Sexiest Man....you, Mr. Banker!

Hi Mr. Banker:
Hope you and Bella have a super duper Thanksgiving (remember-cats should not be given chicken bones).

BTW-WHERE is Bella anyway?

And, since we are heading into the holiday season, I'd like to share a bit of info about the names of my future grandbabe.

My DIL told me the names she and my son have chosen for little bun....
Here goes...
If my grandbabe-to-be is a girl, they plan on naming her Emily Grace (a beautiful choice),

AND-
if they have a little boy
(are you ready for this?)...
His name will be
THEODORE (a family name from my DIL's side) Rex...

Now, most of you know that my oldest son is not only a stonecarver, but also a big fossil hound (google his name and hurricane isabel-you'll see his famous discovery)...
Put two and two together
AND
you get the name----(drum roll please)

T. REX!

How cool is that!?

Mr. Banker-since names are the topic of my post...
it makes one wonder.

How on earth did your parents come up with such a silly name for you-Mr. Banker?
..were you born in a snowbank?
...were they bank robbers?
...was monopoly their favorite game?

OR
...were you maybe created in a bank vault?!!
{{{grin}}}

HAPPY TURKEY DAY EVERYONE!

It seems to me that lots of US contestants have all been pretty f'ed up in the head recently. Today's waste of a person had this overly cocky attitude which ultimately killed her game. She was especially f'ed in in the head, and deserved to crash and burn, which she did. Serves her right for acting like a total imbecile.

Meanwhile over in the UK, they've had two Epic Wins in a row. That's awesome. All the action seems to be over there, so screw the US version. It's got nothing new to offer us anymore. It's the same old idiots committing suicide financially on national televison due to their own stupidity, cockiness, bad decision-making, etc. Booooooring. Call me when the US version is worth watching again.

"Andrew all you need to remember is when you see Dollydeb,Linda, or myself on deal or no deal to count the zeros cause honey , we will walk away with the Million, we walk the walk talk the talk and sing the song and dance the dance."

Did you not read the story of Marceia? That's what happens to people who have this one-way attitude.

Posted by:andrew b | November 24, 2008, 09:03 PM

 

No, I said that the refusal of the $33,000 was the objectively correct decision. That offer was only 26.25% of book.

I don't really care what the gameplay was or what she turned down. I'm only looking at what Marceia said and the final result's comparison as such.

To me, players are not idiots because of the gameplay. Very rarely will you see me say that this contestant was too chicken or too greedy without backing up this assumption with evidence from how they acted on stage.

Notice that all ten players on my Idiot List took deals. This is because they took deals against their own judgment from earlier in the game, not because I think everyone should go on to the end.

Posted by:andrew b | November 24, 2008, 09:01 PM

 

Oh, Andrew: I couldn't believe the loss this morning (the holiday episode)!

Wow-Mr. Banker, maybe you have a hand in choosing the contestants, because it seems you have an uncanny ability to pick contestants that are not only unlucky, but also too greedy!

Well, Mr. Banker-when we ALL are on your show, I think YOUR luck will change.

Happy almost Mr. Banker Day (i.e. turkey day)

BTW-my DIL called today, according to her doctor, little bun could arrive any time now! Woo Hoo!

Dawn-you are SO lucky to live near your grandbabe!

It doesn't surprise me that she let greed cosume her and wound up with less money. There have been many epic fails ever since a certain retired general and bagpiper sold their million dollar cases almost two years ago.


Andrew B

I wouldn't be surprised if the Thanksgiving eve episode was the last one because watching these contestants push their game too far and seeing all these gimmicks and moments like MDM, Brooks Leach and October from helll '07 has become much too painful.


Until next time
Eric

P.S. Have a happy and safe Thanksgiving all my faithful bloggers.

Just consider...did you really expect to fulfill an expectation that required a 1/22 and a 1/65 (sorry.) chance to occur at the same time? 1,429:1 odds against! Can you count or not?

Posted by:andrew b | November 24, 2008, 04:06 PM

 

Oh, I even forgot something...after the 100K was removed in round 2, widening the net to 500K/50K, you said "I KNOW the offer went up."

And she was wrong.

Earth to player: Maybe you should reconsider your other assumption about the amount in case 2.


America is getting stupider every day...

Posted by:andrew b | November 24, 2008, 04:02 PM

 

Well, I just love it when contestants set themselves up for GUARANTEED FAIL...today's daytime show included.

She comes to the show being highly loudmouthed and says that she is going all the way regardless, and that 500K is in case 2.

Well, let me tell you something. First, there are 21 other amounts that case 2 could contain, so we're already to 1/22. If it's not on the table, you can't take it home, period.

And then you have to be able to go all the way to the end with no safety net...which (on the nighttime show) has an occurrence of 1 in 45 (Demetres, Ritchie, Koshka and Cathy, out of 260 players). A 1 in 990 probability is hardly "guaranteed".

When the first offer is refused, she says "$500,000 is in here, and I'm not taking anything less!" Famous last words...I believe we have had 110 contestants before you, and every one of them has taken less than $500,000, although three of them should have. Why should you be any different?

(Interestingly enough, 5 out of 110 players, not including this one, picked 500K. Exactly 1/22...:P)

So since Howie says the third offer is higher than before, but not $500,000...we take a break? Why are we taking a break if she's obviously not going to take it?

When we get the offer, the player says that she has a "system" to get the banker to offer better. Now, let me ask you something....if you're just going to go all the way, why do you care what the banker offers?

Now, with six cases left, there is no more net. So I'd like to see you go all the way now...

Four cases remain: 10, 300, 2,500 and 500,000. The offer is 33,000, which is supposed to be "juiced", but obviously isn't. Now one of the players says there is no net, so go home. Well, now she knows there's no net, as if she hasn't figured that out. So she does make the objectively right decision by refusing it...


and case 5 turns up EPIC FAIL.

I think we have a few questions...

How do you propose to take home $500,000 now?

If you won't accept anything under $500,000, why are you still on this stage?

Why didn't you foresee this before?

Then the 2,500 goes, and eventually she does, at least, go all the way, to take home the 300.

She claims that she is a person of her word, and fulfilled her word.

Now, let me tell you something else...Your word also included the promise to leave with a half-million. $300 is not half a million, so you are NOT a person of your word.

No redemption for you....and you won less than $1,000, so Mad Mark won't be any softer on you.

Good Morning Mr. Banker,

Other shows have their good points
And some shows Have it's bummers
But "Deal or No Deal" has got big man Banker
He's a offer-shooting son of a gun
Yeah, he's big and rich as a man can come
And he's stronger than most of his Contestants
And when we all gather in front of our TV's at night
You know we all call big man Banker "boss", just because
And we say

You don't try pulling Mr. Banker man's chain
You don't yell at him into the mic
You don't make jokes about him being in the dark
You just don't mess around with big man Banker

Well out of the sliding doors came one of Banker's offers
He says I'm looking for a Contestant I can send home
Mr. Banker says: I am a offer-shooting one of a kind
My name is big man Mr. Banker
But down on the stage they call me Banker Boss Man
Yeah I'm looking for the littlest offer to send them packing
Last week I sliped and lost a Million Dollars
And that ain't happening again
Like everybody always says, don't you know

You don't try pulling Mr. Banker man's chain
You don't yell at him into the mic
You don't make jokes about him being in the dark
You just don't mess around with big man Banker

Except for one little conspiracy theory I've noticed...

Remember Koshka and Jessica, how the 1M win? music was only used for the one that actually won? Since both of them were taped very close to each other, and Jessica was taped on 7/7/08 or close to that, the DonD staff had seven weeks to compose the 1M win? theme (what you heard after Jessica turned down 561K, and before her case was opened). So why does it only exist in one of the two games where it should be used?


Well, guess what? WITH THE THEME IN THEIR ARMORY, they refused to use it when Ritchie played for 1M. And guess what? The guy didn't get it. Explain this to me.

Posted by:andrew b | November 24, 2008, 10:59 AM

 

On second thought, Mr. Banker, with Thanksgiving just a few days away, maybe this is the time to run and hide...
after all, you ARE a TURKEY!
gobble gobble gobble everyone.

Posted by:dollydeb | November 24, 2008, 07:52 AM

 

Good Morning Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers-
Andrew and Mad Mark, I always enjoy a great competition-watching one, anyway.

Mr. Banker, hubby and I are switching internet providers today, so not sure if I can access the internet for a while-we'll see.
Either way, have a happy turkey day folks!

BTW-I had another book signing on Saturday-it went GREAT!

Now, Mr. Banker-here's a little encouragement for the holiday season. When you're at the store, forget that your middle name is Scrooge and purchase some extra food for your local food pantry, pick up a tag from the Salvation Army Angel Tree (and buy something awesome), and drop a few unused toys into the Toys for Tots box...
Trust me, Mr. Banker-YOU will be the one that will feel you have received the gift.
A gift of a warm heart definitely cannot be replaced.

Ah, that was fun. Andrew, you're my favorite sparring partner here on the ol' blog. I probably should have mentioned it before, but I'm a huge conspiracy theorist. That's why I was making all of those grandiose claims before. They're wrong sometimes, but there are other times when I am either right or pretty close to right. Not this time, though. Oh well; never mind. I guess that you could say when it comes to DoND knowledge statistics, info, reasoning, etc., you're the master. But when it comes to being a conspiracy theorist, I'm the master. Never forget that. Also, I have chutzpah, and lots of it. And I am never afraid to use it. Ever. You should know that by now.

Well, anyways, that was a fun little romp. I'm sure we'll be doing it again in a few days, when I either praise or berate the next contestant(s) on the result of their game. And boy, will that ever be fun.

One other little side note...I think that because this is the second part of a Thanksgiving special, they're promoting only that episode for now and putting some others in once Thanksgiving is over.

Also, this player is a woman. If this is DonD's last aired episode, where does that leave the episode with Davon Clark that was promoted after Tia and Robert's games? It has not aired yet, and the only reason why taped episodes would not air is because of cancellation. This has not happened yet.

It's pretty easy to deduce that when you piece things together...if you were watching Ritchie's game and were alert to notice that the next game would feature a 9M board and that this one was an 8M board, you would know that Ritchie would not win 1M.

It makes more sense that this is being promoted above other episodes because it's a special episode.

Posted by:andrew b | November 23, 2008, 11:08 PM

 

"To me, it's less about stupid statistics and more about how much money is won."

So if the amount of money won by a contestant determines their idiocy, then Janie Colosso is 108 times as dumb as Dave Atherton.

And how much more of an idiot would Lee have been to give up 500 by refusing the Banker's Gamble and having 10, than by taking it and having 1, thus giving up only 2.49?

You really have to stop working in a vacuum. An assumption that winning less than X means you are an idiot brings in not only people such as Ritchie Bell, but also Janie Colosso, whose game you actually liked.

An assumption that everyone who has killed someone has committed murder includes bank robbers who shoot policemen while trying to get away, but also someone who was trying to defend his own life and had to kill his attacker. He didn't want to, but he had to to save himself.

Posted by:andrew b | November 23, 2008, 11:01 PM

 

The other thing that you hold to is that of not airing games of low winners. Now that is just ridiculous.

Let's say you got your way, and everyone who won less than $1,000 did not have their games aired. So we turn on the TV one day, the board contains $300 and $500,000, and the contestant says No Deal (foolishly?). Well, this is pretty exciting to watch now, isn't it?

You didn't like it when NBC spoiled Jessica's 1M win. If NBC were to cut out all low (under $1,000) winners, the amount of spoilage you'd see on the show is so extensive it wouldn't be funny. Imagine watching a trainwreck game where only eight amounts remain: $25, $50, $100, $200, $300, $400, $750, $1,000. Gee, I wonder what this contestant is going to win...

NBC might as well just strike the entire left side from the board and play with 13 cases.

Your ideas would just make the show worse. Think from the viewer's perspective a little more.

Posted by:andrew b | November 23, 2008, 10:54 PM

 

Andrew, we've been through this... I can grill whomever the hell I want. I don't care about stupid numbers. To me, it's less about stupid statistics and more about how much money is won. I don't care about odds, math, statistics, etc. I just care about money won. This person won nothing; thus, he is a bona-fide Mad Mark Idiot. Case closed. Time to move on now, which is what I will certainly be doing.

Now, in other news, the DoND hoomepage is mentioning some new variety show hosted by Rosie O'Donnell. If you're looking for a REAL world-class idiot, look no further; she is most definitely one. It looks like that show may be replacing DoND, as the last episode listed on the homepage is the one that's coming up on Wednesday. And I know exactly what will happen in that episode, thanks to some great spy work done by a friend of mine. Let's just say that it involves another idiot contestant making another bonehead move, similar to the kind of thing that has happened about 17 times on the syndicated version already. If you can figure out what I'm talking about, do the smart thing and avoid watching the episode at all costs. What I can guarantee is that the $2 million stays till the end, as advertised. But that's not necessarily a good thing.

It's good to be back.

*evil laugh*

-Mad Mark.

Posted by:Mad Mark | November 23, 2008, 10:51 PM

 

I also heard this quote from you...

"Oh, and Greeny, in my opinion, the point of the show is to win as much money as possible."

And meanwhile, you call him an idiot for trying to do exactly that. The odds the banker gave him were once in a lifetime. When are you ever going to give a guy a quarter and get back $11 if you call it correctly? You would be a world-class idiot NOT to take that.

So the No Deal with the all-red round is not stupid, the No Deal that leaves the 1 and 10 around is not stupid, playing on 2.21:1 odds (5.5/2.49) is not stupid, and playing on 46.36:1 odds (255/5.5) is not stupid.

SO WHAT WAS STUPID, MAD MARK? This is why people didn't like you very much.

Posted by:andrew b | November 23, 2008, 10:43 PM

 

It cut something off...2.49 is less than the 5.50 mean, so he should have turned that down as he did.

The idea is that the bad round 4 and round 5 is not being idiotic, 2.49 was under the mean of 5.50, and 5.50 was significantly under the average winnings he could expect from the Banker's Gamble (255).

I don't see how you can fault the guy for betting on the 45.36:1 (!) odds in his favor (255/5.5 = 46.36). Most contestants get grilled for not playing on 3:1 odds, and you want to grill this one for playing on 45:1 odds?

Posted by:andrew b | November 23, 2008, 10:35 PM

 

How is he a world-class idiot, specifically?

Running into the top three amounts in a row with 8 boxes left? Not idiotic.

Doing it again in the next round? Not idiotic.

Turning down 2.49 to get 1 or 10? Very smart. 2.49

Trading in a guaranteed 5.50 (on average; 10 + 1 / 2 = 5.50) for a chance to make it 510 on a coin flip? That's smart. If it was 250, maybe I get your point. But 5.50 vs. nothing or 510? Why is he an idiot to take that chance?!

Posted by:andrew b | November 23, 2008, 10:28 PM

 

Andrew, I never received an e-mail at that address. I reccommend using magnetboy1@yahoo.ca, since that's my primary e-mail. I rarely check my Hotmail. The only reason why I still have my Hotmail address is because I use it to log into Windows Live Messenger. However, if you want to add me to your Messenger list, go right ahead.

As for Lee, he was a world-class idiot for winning nothing. Not much more can be said beyond that. However, a player named Keran won ₤75,000 from her box on today's show. This was after she obliterated all the other top amounts in the first few rounds, including knocking out the ₤250,000 on her very first pick of the game. She then had a complete turnaround, taking out 9 small amounts in a row en route to winning the ₤75,000. Her final 2 were ₤5,000 and ₤75,000; offer was ₤22,500. She declined it, and the rest you already know. Best UK game of the year. Epic Win for sure, plus an addition to the Hall of Fame. Now, how's that for a game played right ;) ?

Oh, and Dawn, thanks for the warm welcome. It's always nice to be appreciated :) .

Best,
-Mad Mark.

Somewhere, nestled deep within the Canadian wilderness, there arose a mighty cry from a single voice...

I'm baaaaaacccccckkkkkk!!!

*ahem*

You can thank (or blame?) Eric for bringing me out of semi-retirement. I thought you guys would be happier with me out of the picture, and yet now, you're clamouring for my return. Interesting. I honestly thought that half of you wanted me dead for the things I've said. But it looks like at least one of you missed me. Thanks for remembering me, Eric.

So, it looks like you guys had a very meh game on Friday's episode of Failure en Masse. And Eric is right; there are no more episodes listed after the upcoming one. Looks like The Deal may be gone... or is it? Only time will tell...

Andrew, I tried to decode your pig latin message, but I could not. Would you mind giving it to us in English?

Well, I guess that's it for me. I'm now back as a member of Dollydeb's 11, whether you like it or not.

Glad to be back,

The editing was at least nice, but the commercials were far too excessive.

And I liked how they revealed the 2M when Jimmy wasn't looking. :)

But you haven't really answered the issue...

Posted by:andrew b | November 22, 2008, 03:49 PM

 

All in all, it was a good show despite the fact that Jimmy knocked out the top two prizes late in his game and he won a respectable $63,000.

Andrew B

Remember Jay Garrity last Thanksgiving when he sold his million dollar case? I have a feeling that history might repeat itself again.


Until next time
Eric

P.S. Mad Mark, we miss you man. Please come back to us!!!!!!

Posted by:Eric | November 22, 2008, 12:20 AM

 

Well...

Four main things today...

I thought we were having Davon Clark's game tonight...that's the one you ran promos for last Friday.

It looks like the good old Thanksgiving Curse is not in effect...the first five players over two Thanksgivings had complete train-wreck first and second rounds, typically not leaving more than one large number past that round, or even sooner, or else Jay's game (a sale of a 1M+ case). It might be next Friday...see below for more info.

The game itself? Very poor set of supporters. The wife looks vivacious and well-meaning, but she's a very bad calculator. I get the idea about if the 1M and 500K drop out, we're in trouble, so take the $89K to have enough for the stuff you wanted.

Well, you said nothing about the bigger offer in round 2, or particularly the $222,000 in round 3 where there was also as many large numbers as there were cases. The usual reason why someone might suggest to get out while you still can is because there is absolutely no net, or a weaker net than before. The net has not changed! So if anything, you should have said Deal at $222,000. And on the side, $89,000 is less than half of book. You will almost never win by taking an offer that small, and even when you do lose, it is more than covered by a SINGLE small case - let alone any one of the five small cases available. The odds are against you in both forms, and that is a sign that dealing would not be smart.

Then Jimmy leaves at the $63,000 for the same reasons. The safety net is still the same as it was, the offer is better but still quite inadequate, and if you'll notice, four times as often as the disaster scenario occurs, not only do you surpass $63,000, but also the $89,000 you "wished" you had taken.

If you have fallen very far, but can make up every single inch with only one small case, it is not a good idea to quit the game. *coughAdaliscough* (Yes, she lost, but the loss from $500K is outnumbered 3:2 (150,000:100,000), not once, but twice. So the odds are way against that...)

And we still don't have Davon's game up...but I heard the "1M win music" in the next show's promo, and also that...

Greetings Mr. Banker, Casting, and Producers,

All I Want For Christmas Is To Be A "Deal Or No Deal" Contestant"
Every body pauses and says to me "You've been trying since May 2006"?
Yes, my audition tapes, applications, and Casting Call were sent and done
I don't know just who to blame for this catastrophe! "Deal Or No Deal" Casting I guess
But my one wish on Christmas Eve is as plain as it can be!

All I want for Christmas
is a call from DOND Casting,
a Contestant I want to be,
hear me? a Contestant I want to be!

Gee, if I could only
be a DOND Contestant,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas."
It seems so long since I first tried,
"May 2006 to be exact!"
Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd be,
if I could only be a Contestant on DOND!

All I want for Christmas
is a call from DOND Casting,
a Contestant I want to be,
hear me? a Contestant I want to be!

Gee, if I could only
be a DOND Contestant,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas!"

PS: Christmas is just around the corner, and I am making my Chritmas list, besides putting it by the fireplace I am also posting it too, just in case Santa reads your blogg Mr. Banker.

Dawn, BTW-just a few spats right now....
after all, you know how We KIDS act right before the holidays!

Mr. Banker, when was your last time out?

Posted by:dollydeb | November 20, 2008, 01:50 PM

 

HI Andrew:
Actually I hold the record for most posts at once. For Father's Day in June 2007, I posted 99 posts at once to get the post count to a number with 13-my hubby's favorite number! I don't know if that blog of Mr. Banker's will still open, but check it out. And the posts were ALL different!

Mr. Banker, speaking of posts, Nick is outdoing you once again....
I know that AT YOUR AGE you tend to run on a slower pace, but come 'on-your faithful bloggers are
here and waiting!

Jofus, since they're taping again this week, maybe we'll hear of another million dollar winner!

Hi Dawn! Hi Linda!

Posted by:dollydeb | November 20, 2008, 01:47 PM

 

Hello Mr. Banker,
I am still dreaming about what it might
be like when ever I become a Contestant.
It could be like this, you never know.


Mr. Banker says:

What is happening here?
Something is going on
It's not quite clear
Somebody turn on the light
I'm frightened, this can't be
It's starting all over again
Oh No! Tell me I'm not losing again!


Linda Caroots says:

Oh, what a feeling!
When I playing "Deal Or No Deal".
Oh, what a feeling!
When I am taking down Mr, Banker.
Oh, oh, what a feeling!
When I am winning a Million Dollars.
Oh, what a feeling!
I feel like dancing on the stage now!!!
Come on! woo! I'm just getting started
Everybody starts to clapping
When the confetti starts a falling
If you see Mr. Banker don't get uptight
The only thing he'll be doing tonight
Is feeling like his head is spinning round and round
And turning his smile upside down
Sad Mr. Banker is coming down with the blues
So come on, let's listen to his chant
Because he can't hold it back

Mr. Banker say:
"Woo!!! Say what? I lost another Million Dollars"?

Dawn...you have just set a record. A 32-post? I don't think that's ever been done in the history of blogging. ;)

I was wondering how there were 36 new comments on this blog in less than 12 hours...if Eric had a rather big idiot list or something...:)

Dawn, me and the guys are just conversing back and forth about the show and Contestants. I find it enlightening.

BTW Mr. Banker-
You should check out Nick's new photo on his blog.

There is no way we'll ever see you donning a costume like that-
T.V. stations don't have a parental warning to cover the horror the viewers would experience if they'd get a glimpse of you in that costume.

Posted by:dollydeb | November 20, 2008, 06:44 AM

 

Go Linda!
I'm sure that WHEN YOU are on the DOND stage, not only will you talk, dance, sing the talk-you will walk, talk, dance, and sing your way to the richest riches.

Same for you, too-other faithful bloggers: Dawn, Kim, Andres, Marsha, Martha, Jan, Judy, Eric, Andrew, Richard, L.B., Mad Mark (hey, maybe Mr. Banker will make an exception to the U.S. citizen rule), etc etc etc-oh, and yours truly.

Well, more snow here today. Winter has definitely made an early appearance here on The Lake!

Posted by:dollydeb | November 20, 2008, 06:41 AM

 

If you mean an "idiot list", that's on the big blog with 595 comments. Just type "NUMBER TEN" into the Find template and you'll go right to it.

Warning: Read only if your IQ is higher than all ten of the players on the list, combined. Um, about 75.

Posted by:andrew b | November 19, 2008, 11:03 PM

 

Oops...hold on. I was looking at a page with last Wednesday's game, but thought that the sidebar had had the current statistics. So instead, we're $1,172,525.01 in the hole in 105 shows, not including the nightcap show after that debacle.

Posted by:andrew b | November 19, 2008, 10:54 PM

 

I'm ticked off that contestants take offers that not only go up more often than they go down, but also go up more than it would go down (2/3 > 1/3, 198,000 - 88,000 > 88,000 - 100), but there's really nothing I can do about that. If contestants come on a show about math and statistics but suck at math, sorry. I'm not helping you out.

What annoys me is that these offers pop up at all. Because of this banker's antics and three extremely stupid contestants, we are now over $1,250,000 in the hole on case selling as of that episode. In less than 100 shows.

When will players learn that selling the big one costs them *much* more than blowing out the big one?

Posted by:andrew b | November 19, 2008, 10:50 PM

 

Andrew B,

Now that Mad Mark has left the banker's blog, it's now our turn to sometimes make harsh comments about the show. Did that episode where the contestant sold the $500,000 case when she had a board of $1, $400, and $500,000 with no safety net remind you of Neal Washington? Andrew B Thanksgiving is coming up. What are your top 10 turkeys in DOND history?

Until next time
Mad Eric

P.S. Andrew B, I'll name my top 10 turkeys of DOND.

Posted by:Mad Eric | November 19, 2008, 10:10 PM

 

Hello Casting,
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Please except this trukey message on behalf of the Banker's Bloggers.

In the spirit of the Holiday"s get that giving spirit and call us to be Contestants on "Deal Or No Deal".

Linda...

I don't think you realize just how many people end up not backing up the talk, even though they think they can. Don't say I told you so when you're on the stage and quit with $500 vs. $1,000,000 because it's too risky.

Posted by:andrew b | November 19, 2008, 09:30 PM

 

Hi Eric,
I sorry not to have already address your your post. If I am ever lucky enough to be a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal" I will not only talk the talk, I will sing the talk, rap the talk, sign the talk, and I will back it up like Michael Jackson doing the Moonwalk across the stage.

Happy Thanksgiving To All!

Now that two contestants have won the $Million on the prime-time show and supposdely, two contestants on already-taped editions of the daytime show have won the $500,000, it's time for Our Banker to clamp down and make sure future contestants leave with chump change!

You, Mr. Banker, are the real reason people watch "Deal Or No Deal", both prime-time and daytime versions.

Not Howie.

Not the contestants.

Not even the models.

It's you, Mr. Banker.

Posted by:Jofus | November 19, 2008, 06:58 PM

 

Eric, apparently Linda isn't listening to you...She talked to me, but I don't think that was enough. We're just trying to keep you from looking like the same people you hate to watch, Linda.

Posted by:andrew b | November 19, 2008, 04:57 PM

 

Hello Mr Banker, and all of you Bloggers,

I am planning my Thanksging Menu, and this is what I want to have so far.

A Serving Dish of $25,000 Dollars will entertain you before Dinner
A Carafe of $100,000 Dollars to wet the palate
A Turkey stuffed with a $250,000 Dollars will be the attraction
A Bowl of baked $300,000 Dollars wiil be savory
A Shaker of $50,000 Dollars for added accents
A Cassarole of $75,000 Dollars will delight the palate
And for dessert a $200,000 Dollar money pie

Now thats what I call a Million Dollar Dinner!!! YUMO!!!!
I would say Thanks and Give Thanks for a meal like this.

Another $500,000 sale...Will this ever stop?

[ $1, $400, $500,000. Player has worked without a net for the last three rounds. Offer $88,000 (?). ]

Hypothetical offer with 400 vs. 500,000 = 198,000.

This is why the daytime version is equal or worse of a proposition because of the absolutely horrendous offers the banker makes, with the contestant having little choice but to take them.

If the ratio of the next expected offer to the current one is greater than the big case to small case ratio, that is a very bad offer. Hmm...198/88 > 2.

Good morning Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers!

Today is gonna be an awesome day (how's that for a positive attitude?).

Dawn, stay warm and snug (you, too Linda, Judy, Kim, Martha, Marsha, Tickle, Jan and all the rest of the folks in our chilly part of the world). Stay cool Andrew, Andres, L.B., Kelly, etc-and all the rest in the hot part of the world.

Mr. Banker-are you cool or hot?

Mad Mark left without telling you something...Tolleck was bad. This is worse.

Lee picked some very bad boxes, left 1, 10, 50, 250, 500, 5,000, 20,000, and 75,000 in the final eight, and the next two rounds consisted of all the reds, then the 50, 250, and 500, leaving only 1 and 10. Lee refuses the 2.49, and then gets a call back..

You may swap...If you have 10, you get 510. If you have 1, you get bupkis.

Now that is a pretty foolish bet, I think. The banker just laid odds of 204.8:1 against himself (510/2.49).

Lee keeps his box...


and FAILs.

However, what messes me up here is Mad Mark's quote...

"This is the kind of game that really should not have aired. It's better to win something than nothing."

Now if I read the dond.co.uk forum correctly, Lee HAD to play the Banker's Gamble once he refused the 2.49. He could have avoided that by taking it or by taking the 95 a round back...as if he knew this was going to be offered to him and that it would be mandatory.

Meanwhile, just because you want to leave with "something", you would not risk $2.49 to get either $510 or nothing? You'd be breaking every rule in the book if you kept your money. When's the last time you got a chance to give up a $2 winning lottery ticket for either a $500 ticket or a dud?

Now that Mad Mark has officially left the banker's blog, (He'll be back.) You need someone you'll love to not care for because of my sometimes harsh comments about the show along with Andrew B.


Until next time
Eric


P.S. Linda Caroots, don't just say you're going to win that million, DO IT!!!!!!! We've seen a lot of contestants talk the talk but can't back up their talk at the end.

I was watching Monday's shows, and there were two interesting moments...

The first show had the staff sergeant and the $6,500 offer vs. $7,500, $50,000 and 4. We know most of the contestants said No Deal, one said Deal, and he said No. He went up to 21 (Vilmary, the one who said Deal) and she said there's $1 in there. Howie points out that she told Christian to deal, and she laughs...Howie says "Hopefully, we can prove you wrong..." Unfortunately, he didn't mention whether it was about the Deal or the $1. ( ;) ) Bye bye 50K.

The second half had a player who left at 27K with 250K vs. 3, because she has seen contestants get too greedy and leave with next to nothing. The difference between you and them is that the offer they refuse is $57,000. Yours is less than half that.

In fact, the next offer was $88,000. I can't find the rest of the cases, and I don't remember them, but the odds against are as such: ((88,000-27,000) *3) / 27,000 = 183/27 = 5.77:1 against. The odds on the hypothetically fair offer are ((88,000-57,000)*3) / 57,000 = 93/57 = just above 8:5 against.

Do you see a little bit of difference here, Valerie?!

Marsha to the power of 3, I don't believe in karma. To me, karma is something for hippies. I hate hippies. Another thing - I am not mentally unstable, nor have I ever been. There is no history of any kind of mental illness in my family. Thus, I'd be careful about what I said if I were you (yeah, I know, pot calling kettle black...).
I think I'm done here now. I've said all that needs to be said. Look at this as a good thing - you're losing a cantankerous Canadian complainer. I'm sure that'll make you lot very happy.

I hope I have inspired some of you in some way. However, I'm sure I've infuriated many of you in the process. Face it, people - the truth hurts sometimes. That's how it is. I've been nothing but brutally honest, and while my words can be like poison darts at times, everything I've ever said was designed out to point out the many flaws that this show has. And some of it was done for your own good as well. But if you were able to understand what I was saying in my many rants, then I hope you learned something.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy watching idiots make fools of themselves on national television. One can only assume what you will all do when the curtain finally falls on this travesty of a game show. Hopefully it will be something most enjoyable.

And now for the final time, this is Mad Mark sigining off. Until we meet again, let me leave you with this nugget of wisdom from Albert Einstein, the very person who embodied the term 'genius':
"Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage - to move in the opposite direction."
Think about it.

Linda, you don't seem to give up, do you? Well, neither do I. I won't watch the show, but I'll keep posting here because I draw great pleasure out of bashing DoND. Besides, if I weren't here, who'd do it? Oh wait, Andrew would. Never mind. The responses that I get from people like you are what formced me to stay. But please, Linda, I beg you with all my heart, when and if you make it on DoND, please DO NOT win $10 or something stupid like that. Doing so would have caused you to waste your DoND experience. As I always say, "Go big or go home." That's what you have to do, so do it.

There are two things, however, that I want to make very clear:
1. I HATE THE SHOW.
2. MY NAME IS MARK, GOSH DARNIT!!! IS IT THAT HARD TO REMEMBER?! GEEZ!!!
(You're just doing it to annoy me, aren't you? Please stop.)

Compromise: I'll watch next Wednesday's show. if it sucks, I'm gone for good. Deal or No Deal? Think about it.

-Mad Mark.

Time to say I told you so Case 27 (the name I first new you as and prefer, it's the missing case)

Case 27 , I told you, you would be back. Me and my friend Shakespeare knew it.
How can I be a prime example of why you are boycotting the show??? I have never been lucky enough to be a Contestant yet. When I am ever a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal" I'll have you all pulling your hair out, because of all the "Excitment and Anticipation" I will bring to the game!!!! Now think back about what you wrote today, remember anything? Let me remind you:

Exhibit 1. I am oficially done with this show. There is no longer no need for me to watch it. It's just gotten so bad that it's hit rock bottom.
Exhibit 2. I am officially done with this show, and I guess with this blog as well.

So you gave it up about 2 hours before I even posted about anything you posted. Sorry Case 27, you disclaimed everything you posted at 3:11 PM today. You love the show and this blog, Trying to be so negitive shows how much you love "Deal Or No Deal" and how it gets to you. I think that's great.
Just remember what I have said before: "TO PUSH YOUR LUCK OR NOT PUSH YOUR LUCK" that is the name of the game. You watch DOND because you never know what's going to happen, that's the "Excitment and Anticipation" of the show.

Glad to know your here to stay.
Lighten up on the name calling, it isn't pretty. "Deal" or "No Deal"?

Four score and seven weeks ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new show, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created idiots.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that deal, or any deal so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met here on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of it as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that DOND might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But in a larger sense we can not dedicate - we can not consecrate - we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dealt, who struggled, here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but can never forget what they did here.

It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they have, thus far, so nobly carried on. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us - that from these honored deals we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion - that we here highly resolve that these deals shall not have died in vain; that this program shall have a new birth of freedom; and that this blog of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

And now the entertainment:

Time to break things down AGAIN, since most of you still don't get it.

Linda C., you are a prime example of why I am now boycotting this show. I used to watch DoND for the excitement, but I often ended up watching some waste of a person win next to nothing. This is why I have lost all faith in the show. There is no longer any excitement on DoND. There is just the same old bulls*it, over and over again - player comes on, tells sob story which we're expected to care about (most of us don't), and begins their game. 90% of the top amounts are vaporized within the first two rounds of play. And then, one of two things happens:
1. Player goes all the way and wins a left-side amount from their case, thus branding them as an idiot.
2. Player accepts a low offer (usually $25,000 or less) after knocking out the sole remaining Power 7 amount.
Repeat 99 times, and you have yourself a season.

If you call watching people fail spectacularly exciting, then there is something seriously wrong with you. I know there are a lot of purists out there who swear by this show, and refuse to hear anything negative about it due to their one-track minds. These people are so bloody wrong, it's not funny. There are at least two million things wrong with this show, most of which I've mentioned here at least 1,000 times now. If you still think there's nothing wrong with DoND, then there is something seriously wrong with YOU. Face it, folks; the car that is DoND has finally run out of gas. It's time to lay this clunker to rest, and send it over to the junkyard.

And Linda, for the last, my name is Mark, not Case 27. Stop calling me that, for crying out loud. Everyone else did ages ago. I'm sorry for the extreme negativity, but it's for your own good. Plus, as Dawn said, it's less negativity and more brutal honesty.

-Mark D.

WOW, DOUBLE WOW,
Mad Mark I've got to love your brutal honesity, Damn no beating around the bush for you son...

Now I went to your web site love the bus but was hoping to see a nice picture of yourself.. I need to put a face to the much too burtal honesity of such a young man.

Has any one heard how people in California is doing?

Has anyone heard from DOND??

My phones are both on and I am still determined...

Hi Case 27,

Say what you want,complain all you want, you still watch it though, because of all the EXCITMENT the show brings. "Deal Or No Deal" is your daily cup of coffee or tea during the daytime version. And "Deal Or No Deal" it that delightful dessert when it's on in the evening. Like Hamlet said: "The man doth protest too much, methinks." Which tells me you don't mean one thing you say. It's okay you love the show so much, all of us bloggers do!!! So have that coffee or tea and dessert, and enjoy the show. :) See you on the blog.

Hi to all my Bloggin Friends. We'll all be meet on the DOND stage oneday when Casting ever calls. The "Banker's Bloggers" are waiting for those calls Casting. Don't pass up the oppertunity to put on the best "Deal Or No Deal" show ever. We are the "Banker's Bloggers"

Well, now I've seen everything.
I am oficially done with this show. There is no longer no need for me to watch it. It's just gotten so bad that it's hit rock bottom. I thought Friday's DoND would be good, but boy, was I wrong. So, Joe Swanson won $3,000. Big whoop. The show was so bad, I turned away and watched a French-language game show called Paquet Voleur which featured a great $29,651 (CDN $) win for a likeable contestant named Sylvain. You know DoND has hit rock bottom when you need to switch to something that's in another language in order to avoid destroying your TV set. I am officially done with this show, and I guess with this blog as well. Have fun watching the idiots on DoND, folks. They'll eventually kill your interest in the show. Please consider abandoning DoND, people. It's for your own good.

And now, for my final act, here is a poem about the current state of DoND. Enjoy.

D is for Douchebags.
E is for Endless Crap.
A is for Assinine.
L is for Low IQs.

O is for Odious.
R is for Ridiculous.

N is for No Brains.
O is for Obscene Waste of Time.

D is for Dolts.
E is for End the Madness Already.
A is for A-holes.
L is for Losers.

And there you have it. Fare thee well, my friends. I wish you all the best with your endeavours.

Hi Mr. Banker and fellow bloggers-two low wins. Ouch! Guess we gotta chalk one up to Mr. Banker (or Mr. Greed-either way, we're talking about the same entity).

Hope the show is better next week-it's time for some happy news here.

BTW-I finished my T4T and Angel Tree shopping (will post pics in the next couple of weeks)...
But, Mr. Banker-
since you DO have a HEART deep inside you somewhere,
I thought I'd share a video of Beautiful Gate, such a worthy cause. And, in honor of World AIDS Day (December 1), when you tape the shows this week, it would be awesome if you could find it in your heart to help out.

This video truly puts it all into perspective!

Lets hope Mother Nature steps in to help.

Much, much worse than Hugh Neisler.

I've calculated it out, and the odds were over 20 to 1 against Tolleck. 73% of the time it quadruples (to about 40,000 against a 52,500 mean), and 27% of the time it drops in half (about 4,500 against a 5,600 mean). (73*4) / (27/2) = 584/27 = 20.63:1 against!

Hugh Neisler didn't have much more than 10:1 against...

As usual, I'm all over Tia..

$2,000,000 is in this case? [BUZZER]

She doesn't learn and says $500,000 is in this case. [LOUD BUZZER]

"I'm not leaving. Absolutely not." [1-minute long BUZZER]

She was smart enough to catch the AMO of $300 and to recognize that $750 would be taxed, while $375, $50, or whatever she gets on the next case, isn't..but that's about it.

Tia barely has enough money to pay off my two $100 bets. Not only did she leave, but she also left with almost bupkis.

As for Robert, I liked the guy a lot, but I was shocked the banker offered that $61,000...that's almost an AMO (!), and with eight cases still left. Too bad he ran into the $100K *and* the $400K...

Now Mark, tell me you wouldn't have gone on due to the "low chance" of blowing all the large numbers...Saying a contestant is an idiot for leaving with little money means you're risking becoming the same, no matter if it's only a 1/28 shot, by playing on with a 2 big vs. 6 small board.

Good idea to take the AMO of $3,000.

Fun facts: 2 had the penny in both games tonight, and 9 has now had 2M in two of the three games where it has been used.

That next game looks like it's going to be a shocker...but "an ending you won't believe" typically means they sell the 1M case. But I could believe that someone sold a 1M case any day...what I wouldn't believe is that someone got greedy and tried to grab the 1M case and FAILed like Ritchie did.

Good Morning Mr. Banker,

That was a good show last night. I know when you read any complaining on your blog about the game your probaly smiling, because you know the show is doing exactly what it was designed to
do. "Excitment and Anticipation"
"TO PUSH YOUR LUCK OR NOT PUSH YOUR LUCK" that is the name of the game. When all of those extra Million dollar slots are added to the board doesn't even guarantee a Million dollar win. The game boils down to (Do you have the guts and nerve to go all the way) That is the excitment of watching "Deal Or No Deal". We none know what we would do upon that stage. Do you really take the life changing amount that would help you, or do you want it and more. Are you willing to take that chance or not? That is the question. Say what you want, do all your little calculations, it doesn't matter. Complain all you want, you still watch it though, because of all the EXCITMENT the show brings, and you don't know what the extra offers from Mr. Banker will make, or the little funnies Mr. Banker might pull, like the hand reaching down over the head of last nights Contestant to mess up his hair (that was so funny Mr. Banker, good one!)
I am praying for rain storms to come to California, where ever the fires are happening.
It's raining here right now with the on coming of snow soon. Just like "Deal Or No Deal" you don't know what's going to happen next.

Wishing the best to everyone on this blog.

PS: Mr. Banker, I just want to let you know, I will win the Millon.

Now, Bloggers:
If Mr. Banker really wanted to play Santa, he'd have a special stocking for each and every one of his bloggers-with two tickets inside (an airline ticket and a ticket to be in the DOND studio, challenging him to a match of wits)

Hi Dawn LB Marsha Kim Linda Shelley Martha Andrew Mad Mark Judy Peggy Jan Tickle Dreamer Alive (that's one blogger, not two) Eric Richard Truckergirl Grinch (not Mr. Banker-the OTHER grinch) Erica Angela Andres The Three Blogateers (that's one blogger, not three-WAIT, no that's THREE)

etc etc etc (sorry if I forgot some names)

Hi Mr. Banker....
forget about Halloween being your favorite holiday...
November is your TIME TO SHINE!
well, more like glisten with a nice crispy crunchy skin! Mr. Banker, you ARE a turkey.....right!?

Hi bloggers!
Just an update on the Angel Tree progress. I got my name tags yesterday (a whole tree full) and will shop for the kids today. By next week all my Sunshine Shirt Toy donations will be complete.

Now, Mr. Banker-HOW are YOU going to help this holiday season?!! Michigan (and all the other states, too) could really use your help this season.

Marsha-maybe the REAL Santa Claus from Colorado could teach Mr. Banker a few things.

Good Morning Mr. Banker,

I'm wishing, and I'm hoping that you'll play "Deal Or No Deal" with me,
I'm excited as I can be, and I'm hoping for you to have Casting call me,
And I'm hoping that you'll have to make money offers to me
I hope to be walking upon the "DOND" stage real soon.
I have been trying since May 2006 ( 900 days ) and I'm still waitig.
Do I have a chance???

HI Mr. Banker-
are you getting ready for Turkey Day?
..by that I mean, have you purchased your ticket to head out of town? Because, as you know, you're the biggest turkey around! (and I mean that in the kindest sense of the word).

BTW-I agree, you should DEFINITELY have a heart-to-heart with casting for Linda, Kim, Dawn, Marsha, Judy, Andrew, Jan, Martha, Shelley (yes, she's still around), Tickle, Richard, Eric, Dollydeb, Aida, Dreamer Alive, Andres, Richard, Truckergirl, etc etc etc (I know I must have forgotten some names, sorry)..and fly Mad Mark from Canada to cheer us on!

Well, I don't really know about the UK version because of the case schedule...3 out of 5 cases? And you complain about our banker lowballing people. How much more can their banker lowball us when there's a 60% chance of having a trainwreck?

Andrew, this is EXACTLY why I am abandoning this sorry excuse for a game show. It's just one Epic Fail after another, which makes it VERY predictable. The only version I will be focusing on now is the UK verion, which I believe should serve as the model for the real way that DoND should be played. Both US versions are the epitome of crap, and it had gotten to the point where they are no longer watchable. Goodbye, DoND USA, and I hope you get cancelled soon.

HI Bloggers:
Well, Linda, Marshax3, and Dawn-so glad to see a positive attitude from you ladies.

Mr. Banker-we are definitely fans of the show (the ladies, that is).

Besides, we need a happy place to brighten the days ahead.

(yup, snow showers are dampening my travel plans to see the new grandbabe {{{sigh}}})

Dawn, Linda, and Marsha-the first contestant today could have joined our Banker Fan club-she was actually quite nice to Mr. Banker.

How about this...I just tuned in to this afternoon's main show as the player had removed a small case, leading to $5 / $200 / $75,000.

So now Howie asks if she has the guts to go all the way. Yes...All the way! All the way, because that is the only way to take home $75,000, says Howie.

So when 19K pops up, she ignores that, says she has a husband and baby to worry about, and leaves the game. Then she has $75,000. [FAIL!]

Now how was that going all the way?

If you had a husband and baby to worry about, you shouldn't have even CONSIDERED playing on unless you were that confident.

Put that declaration a minute earlier, instead of the other declaration about going all the way, and you have a good reason to leave, even though I wouldn't have done it with the offer doubling on a 2/3 shot.

She did NOT do it to feel more confident, because why do you need confidence on whether your case has $75,000 if you've already decided to leave the game?

Posted by:andrew b | November 11, 2008, 04:13 PM

 

Just read some recaps of syndie DoND, and they were awful. The show is now officially dead to me. I give up. It's all become stupid and a massive waste of time. I hope both versions get axed, because the show has just become downright stupid and is no longer worth watching. I'm off to find a game show that's worth watching. I'll let you know when I find it.

Morning Mr. Banker,

"Mr. Banker, you made many, many people happy.
I know that there's no shame to live from payday to payday.
But there is no harm in wanting more either!
So, what would be so terrible if I had a small fortune?"
If I were a rich woman, Yep, a life changing event, WOW! Hmmm yes!!!
If I were a wealthy woman I wouldn't have to worry so much, life wouldn't be so hard.
There are to many IF's here. Make this happen for me. A life changing event, WOW! Hmmm yes!!!
If I were lucky enough to be rich, even a little bit, what a wow!!!
It can't be said, I haven't become a Contestant for the lack of trying.
I have been trying since May 2006. 2 audition tapes, 1 Casting Call, and several applicatins ago.
I would like it to be said, "Here is now a wealthy woman who won a life changing amount."
So Call Me Casting, pleaseeeeeee Okay?

Please disillusion the crowd on dond.co.uk by posting what I have said here, and also delivering the news of this great contestant turned moron (I actually liked the guy - a LOT - until then.... / It was the 2:30 CDT episode, which many of those guys don't see...)

Posted by:andrew b | November 10, 2008, 04:21 PM

 

Mark...(sigh...)...it happened again. Failure on the daytime DonD.

$86,000 vs. $10 / $5,000 / $100,000 / $500,000 leads to a final two of $100,000 / $500,000, and a sale of $500,000.

[ Starts throwing things ]

Now you said that $54,000 was a lot of money to refuse, but if you walked away with $100,000 or more, you'd be fine. So by hitting the button at $86,000, you admitted you weren't happy with your own decision.

You also said that if you had 500K, it would sting a bit, but you had more than you came in with. Now let's see...what's the worst that can happen next round? The $500,000 is in your next case, and you are still going to face $35,000, minus a "banker penalty", which might get you about $28,000. That's still a good bit more than you came in with...

Just analyze a little further than one round to avoid this failure.

Well? Is the daytime version better, Mark? I don't think so. That's three EPIC FAILures, two of which occurred five days apart!

Posted by:andrew b | November 10, 2008, 04:18 PM

Mad Mark,

I'm with you all the way. The two contestants on Friday knocked out the top two amounts early in their games and it made viewers want to turn off the TV. but at least Steve Slimey recovered and won $60,000. That's not bad.

Mad Mark, you can always wait for the next good thing on NBC, Super Bowl XLIII on February 1, 2009 because DOND won't be on the air come that month.


Until next time
Eric

P.S. DawnMays, where are you? I know that you're disappointed now that DOND stopped production and that you won't get a chance to be on the show but let's face it, the show has nothing else to prove.

Posted by:Eric | November 08, 2008, 10:43 PM

 

Bleh...
DoND sucks ass these days. Sorry, folks, but there's no other way to say it. The contestants have been ATROCIOUS, the games even worse, and the show's just not fun to watch anymore. If I want to watch failure, I'll turn to America's Funniest Home Videos, or I'll visit the Fail Blog (a real site; www.failblog.org). But seriously, this show is no longer worth watching, and is getting progressively worse. I hope the primetime version odes get cancelled at some point because it's turned into a real crapfest. Face it, ladies and gentlement, there's no way to save this lame duck, no matter what they do. I, for one, will be a very happy man when this shameful, sorry excuse for a game show leaves the air. I hope some of you will see the light and feel the same.

-Mad Mark.

In the promo before this game began, NBC mentioned "knocking low amounts off the board..."

Hey, I think you forgot to mention a more important case that was removed in round 1.

Posted by:andrew b | November 07, 2008, 09:01 PM

 

And...she also wiped out the 2M on her third pick. Unbelievable.

I totally hate this contestant, have loved her FAIL, and want to see her FAIL again.

Just look at her at the beginning of the game...No discussion needed, it's in here [$2M in case 2].

Um...I think discussion is needed. Perhaps look over there at what Sara's case is holding, you dimwit?!

"I'm not leaving. Absolutely not."

Oh, yes, you are. I can tell that right now. I'd bet $100 that you're going to leave the game, or at least go all the way but get a pittance.

She is also obnoxiously taking over the entire stage, refuses to take a second look at things (is the 2M really in 2?) and looks and breathes like Marybeth does. And we know that means FAIL.

Posted by:andrew b | November 07, 2008, 08:53 PM

 

Well, a little amendment....At least they played through that game in only half the hour. So do watch the second half...

Posted by:andrew b | November 07, 2008, 08:43 PM

 

If anyone is watching tonight's show right now, turn it off. This show was a despicable waste of time and a CRIME to put that promo in front of.

If you didn't watch...we started the $2M saga with $1M, $500, and $2M (!), then with $25K and ....$500K (!!), and ended with $10. Needless to say, I didn't even stay for the first offer. Disgusting...what a way to make a crap sandwich, NBC. I suppose there was a debate on whether to air this show?

Hello Mr. Banker,
This is directed to "NBC" Casting, and Producers of "Deal Or No Deal",

You're my thrill, "Deal Or No Deal"
You do something to me, for example;
You cause me to have 4 facial expressions,
Excited, Puzzled, Questionable, and Anticipation
"Deal Or No Deal" sends chills right through me
When I watch you my pulse increases, and I just go to piecesl
"DOND" is my TV thrilI, and I can't keep still, and Mr.Banker is the real deal.
And when I watch the show I have the desire to be a Contestant!!!
Hmmm, that gives me an idea !!! Casting, why don't you call?
Here's my phone number in bold print, 937-748-2769 Call It!!!!!!!
I would have said "Here is my phone number on a silver platter",
But I need to win Big Money on the "DOND" show to buy one.
So call me and pit me against Mr. Banker for one heck of a show.

Good, Good Morning Mr. Banker ,

Your words Mr. Banker tell me "Deal Or No Deal" needs me
I can feel it in my pulse and heart beat
You need to play "DOND" with me and you'll see
I'll give you the challenge of the game you need
Wrap yourself up, because of the chill you'll get
When the board belongs to me
You're so excited, I can feel it
I know your hoping that Casting will call me
I'll take you down, I'm sorry but that's the way it's going to be
I'll take you down, and do what no one else has ever done before
So if you want more than just an ordinary game, I'll give you more
Mr. Banker's intellect vs Linda Caroots intellect
Let's Bring It ON.!!! Yeah!!!
Call me, we'll talk.

Eric: I know, I know-are you talking about the daytime show? I was so sad when I saw she had the 500K in her case. I guess sometimes being conservative can be bad (guess I don't have to worry about that, tho)

Hi bloggers!

Gee, only 15 posts?
Mr. Banker-are you losing your popularlity?
Don't worry, by the end of the month (the last THURSDAY to be exact), I'm sure you'll be REAL POPULAR.
Do you want to be stuffed with cornbread stuffing or the traditional sage?
(since you're not a sage, I figure you could use some of that spice, ggg)

BTW-Mr. Banker, yesterday I dropped off my big donation for the T4T to the Marine's recruiting office. They wanted me to tell you they still need a few good men (I told them not to waste their time with you, but some of the bloggers would qualify)

Now, Mr. Banker-there's still time to redeem yourself as I still have to do the shopping for the Angel Tree in G.R.!

To all the future contestants of synicated DOND:

Don't just say you're going for the half million dollars, DO IT!!!!!!!!

Until next time
Eric

P.S. Mad Mark, Andrew, it really doesn't suprise that she sold the $500,000 case.

Posted by:Eric | November 05, 2008, 09:06 PM

 

Well, Mad Mark...

Here's another person to start flaming.

On the syndicated DonD, we have a board with $1, $200, $250,000 and $500,000, and 96K (!?) at stake. She claims that seeing her mother see her win 96K is more important than the net....(FORK), and quits.

The final two? $250,000 vs. $500,000! (!!!)

And she swapped case 3 with a penny out for case 13, which had $500,000!

Something tells me that Mom won't be happy when she sees that. Never assume what somebody will think about a situation unless they are next to you.

So now we have two ULTIMATE FAILs on the daytime show...neither of whom would have failed with the person in question beside them. So the daytime show really isn't better, Mark.

(Interestingly enough, where have we seen the cases 3 and 13 before, with 13 holding the top prize? :P )

* MARK'S FLAME START *

Hey there again Mr. Banker,
"Deal Or No Deal" is always in the back
of my mind, and you are the show.

I am the adversary you are looking for!!!

Like a tulip waiting to bloom
Like a lightbulb in a dark room
Mr. Banker just sitting waiting to take me on
As a Contestant on "Deal Or No Deal"
Like the grass waiting for the rain
Like a daffodil waiting for the spring
I am just waiting to get started playing the game
Howie talks, and the Audience cheers me on
My Supporters waiting for a new offer from Mr. Banker
Mr. Banker sweating up a storm waiting for my LUCK to run out
My Supports, my daughters, Laura, Leslie, and Leanne
Are my good luck charms, so I will win big there is no doubt
So come on Mr.Banker make a great offer, you take the lead
"Oh sorry, No Deal", "my Money Case has the Million Dollars". SEE"?

Well, this is the way I want it to be. It is nice to wonder what might be.

well well well. If it isn't swarmy ole' Mr. Banker (BTW-I do agree with Richard and Linda-your blog post is obviously a fake, but hey, I can play along with your game).

Grinch-SOOO glad to see you back and posting. It's almost time for your holiday return. Seems like this year's shopping season will definitely be in your court)


Welcome to the group, Aida:
Hope you get to be on the show. I hope ALL of us get to be on the show.

Okay, time for work, just wanted to stop by for a quick HI!

Mr. Banker-just one question. When ALL your bloggers come to your stage, should we pack for summer or autumn weather?

Morning Mr. Banker,

There was a valid point made by blogger Richard Mr. Banker. Hmmmmmm, why didn't you sign your name? I was just excited you finally posted I didn't notice.
Will the real Banker please post something that only your faithful bloggers would recognize!

Real Bankers don't whine.

Posted by:Richard | November 04, 2008, 09:52 PM

 

Someone at NBC must be playing a joke on us. The message was not even signed the Banker.

They tossed some newbie know-nothing the responsibility to post a message. Really pathetic.

Fake!

Better late than never. Don't you agree?

Posted by:Eric | November 04, 2008, 07:13 PM

 

One other little thing you need to know, banker: A trained chipmunk could win 1M, but it could still be done on a regular board. Anyone can win 1M as long as they know 30 words: 1 through 26, Deal, No Deal, Switch, and No [switch], and that they pick the right cases.

Quit whining. You're the one who gave her the 9M board, and if you didn't want to be humiliated again, you shouldn't have started another MDM.

If we make it too easy, you say that it wasn't a real win. If we make it too hard, you say they were just lucky. Notice that you called Jessica lucky with 5 cases, so if we get a 1M winner with only 1M, as you seem to want, you're just going to yell and whine again. You can only have things one way, banker!

Hey, Banker...You said you wouldn't be humiliated again, so we did it again. You asked for it....Fail is fail, no matter how easily it was won.

Posted by:andrew b | November 04, 2008, 05:11 PM

 

So sorry to disappointment you Banker, but I voted for Pedro. I like his hair, and his dates' puffy sleeves were Wicked Awesome!

The Golden Shimmy Hoola dresses the Models wore last nite were...
you guessed it...

Wicked Awesome!

Salutations Mr. Banker,

I never met a Banker who makes me feel the way that you do. "Yeah, that's right"
Whenever I'm asked who could make my dreams come true, I say that you could. "You're outta sight"
With your Millions, you make the "Deal Or No Deal" show "Out of sight"
So, deal-or-no-deal
Look out Mr. Banker, because here I come.
And I'm bringing you a misery that's true.
So get ready, so get ready.
I'm gonna try to make you a Million Dollars poorer too.
So get ready, so get ready because here I come.
Get ready because here I come, I'm on my way.
Get ready because here I come, On my way to the stage.
If you want to play hide the $ amounts with the Money Cases, let me remind you "It's alright"
But the excitiment is going to come with your money offers each and every time "It's outta sight"
So, deal-or-no-deal
Look out Mr. Banker, because here I come.
I will be bringing you a show that you'll love to do. "That's true"
So get ready, so get ready because here I come. "WELL, THAT IS IF CASTING CALLS"

PS: Glad to have you back!!!

The Banker LIVES!!! Welcome back, good sir, and thank you for letting us know that you're still alive. Some of the regulars were quite worried about you; myself included.

You're right to say that the million bucks was practically given to Tomorrow on a silver platter. Couldn't have said it better myself. But you're also right that breaking the bank (no pun intended) would be more exciting if someone were to do it the normal way with a board that is not on steroids. Maybe it will happen someday, but I wouldn't count on it - for now, at least.

As far as voting is concerned, I'm the only Canadian here, so I can't vote in the election. However, I do support Barack Obama. I think he has what it takes to be a great leader for the United States.

That's all for now. Have a great day.

Best,
-Mad Mark.
