    No poll, there's far too many to list.

    At the moment I love Deal or No Deal. Great format, gets very tense at times. I've developed a knack of predicting what the Banker is going to offer.

    What really eats me though is some of the crap they go on with about getting a feeling from the boxes... It's a BOX!!!!

    Oh yeah and clapping when they lose the 100k box like it's not a problem. Of course it's a problem!!!!

    I'm a sucker for Countdown too. Des Lynham is doing a great job on it, now that he's settled into the role.

    I don't do "favourites". Countdown or Qi or Never Mind The Buzzcocks. I've only recently 'taken' to the Dry Des + Countdown mix. I dislike Deal or no Deal, for its format/production values, the contestants, the audience, Noel Edmonds ...argh.

    Deal or No Deal is ok, we have Howie Mandel as the host in the US. I like shows like The Amazing Race, Im not sure if there is a European version of that.

    Countdown remains a favourite for me and also Who wants to be a Millionaire! I just love quizzes. Countdown is just great, I like the mix of the numbers game and the letters game. For some reason I have a mental block against the number 75, all other numbers I'm fine with :confused:

    I can't stand Deal or no Deal, I don't find it tense at all, I just lose my patience and reach for the remote. The whole program could be over in ten minutes if they'd just let me on it :D At least with Millionaire you know that it's your answer to a question that you think you know the answer to that wins or loses, not some random box picking.

    Poker Face just started last night at 8pm with Ant & Dec and it's very good.
    *Damn, just missed tonight's episode!* Anyone see it yet?

    Ya it was good. The questions are from all sorts of topics. The guy who won last night seemed like a right wanker going on about being in 98 countries. But he did play the game right and make everyone else fold. The woman who came 3rd was funny, raving on how men are always fooling her and how after her 3rd marriage she should be able to see through them.

    Its only on for a week, finishing Sunday night with the final prize being £1million.

    Well, Poker Face finished tonight and the best person won in the end IMO - delighted for her!
