    Yep will be watching now, They've done enough advertising anyway it better be good!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,138 ✭✭✭foxy06


    Its been pretty crap so far. Glorified ad for Simons empire and bit of a rip off of deal or no deal


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,316 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Idiots going for black.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    It's a bit rubbish really. Too much talking, too many sob stories.

    Yeah its not as good as expected:eek:

    Too much talking, too many sob stories.

    That's exactly what they want - an emotional ride. It's almost comical seeing the contestants so distraught over not getting through to the next round, as if they're going to be taken around back and shot!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,070 ✭✭✭Tipsy McSwagger


    It's a terrible show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,692 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    Cringeworthy stuff. People crying because they chose the wrong colour. They'd be kicked out of a casino acting like that!

    Simon Cowell = the king of over-hyped nonsense.

    Deal or No Deal is screened on Channel 4 and is geared mainly towards the elderly. Red or Black has a prime time Saturday night slot either side of X-Factor, another fantastic Cowell creation.

    It's this sort of sh!te that would drive ya to the pub

    Another show that plays on the emotions of people and highlights how poor the common man is (compared to Cowell and his team).
    Rubbish show.

    it sure is if I could only afford a babysitter :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,467 ✭✭✭jimmynokia


    the million was won i would say Simon is reeling lol!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,836 ✭✭✭Sir Gallagher


    I was forced to watch this rubbish tonight, absolute sh1te of the highest order. TV for simpletons.

    If they focused less on the audience and more on the stunts then it would be a great show! I must admit that I was on the edge of my seat during the bike limbo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,195 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Quite possibly the worst TV show I've seen in my life..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,516 ✭✭✭Outkast_IRE


    Ha ha it reminds me of the people lottery in the film "the island" ,
    No skill, no knowledge , no anything required just random luck the whole way through with utter ****e stories all the way through and people crying how the money would of changed their life. its the only program i have ever described as Vomit worthy :D

    Oh absolutely. Are we supposed to care whether the simpleton at the end wins or not? Brainless sh1te of the highest order. I hate it so much.

    Surprisingly awful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,029 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    Jesus what a pile of sh1te


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Red or Black beaten by Countryfile in Sunday overnight ratings.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,036 ✭✭✭murphym7


    How are they making their money. Who wants to be a millionaire funded itself from advertising and contestants application phone calls. Would advertising cover the 2 million, plus show costs so far? Or is Simon's plan to sell this show to other countries? 2 mil plus production costs so far is a lot for advertising to cover.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 61 ✭✭tippniall


    Truly awful show!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,402 ✭✭✭Tinie


    I thought the winners would be determined by skill going by the adverts... but its just pure random luck. Really boring show.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,370 ✭✭✭Colmo52


    It makes Winning Streak look good


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,655 ✭✭✭1966


    Overhyped nonsense with Ant & Dec bigging it up as best they could......

    I watched the guy spin the wheel last night to win the million. Must admit it was exciting.

    Have to agree with you it's absolutely appalling. They should have went with this for Red or Black its far more exciting.

    "Keep out of the black and in to the red, There's nothing in this game for two in a bed"



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,741 ✭✭✭✭Ally Dick


    It's such a dumb show. You need as much ability as you do for Winning Streak. Most contestants wouldn't know a rat sh!t from a rice crispie


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,630 ✭✭✭steelcityblues


    Absolutely no skill required to win this.

    Typical Cowell rubbish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,516 ✭✭✭Outkast_IRE


    so its emerged now that the guy who won a million is actually a convicted woman beater, now that its out he does look the type .
    Hopefully this will help end this ****e show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 428 ✭✭Compak


    There was a time when it took 15 questions to win a million pound, now that was entertainment.

    Now you pick one out of two colours.

    Simon Cowell you've a lot to answer for when it comes to the cultural ruination of our tv shows.

    Dear God, that isn't all you have to do, is it?!?:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 186 ✭✭Mistyeyes321


    Have to agree with most people here what a awful tv show this is boring isn't the word! No surprise Mr Fowel has invented it , or is behind it...:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,741 ✭✭✭✭Ally Dick


    The X Factor audience and the Red or ,Black audience are the same. They probably love Deal Or No Deal too. All brainless rubbish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,285 ✭✭✭tfitzgerald


    I have to agree this show is rubbish and ant and dec are not much better


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,123 ✭✭✭the whole year inn


    When its on I watch it ,what can I say I sort of liked it,guess that makes me a simpleton :)

    It's an advert for Cowell's music acts.

    Another guy just won a Million:eek:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21,634 ✭✭✭✭Richard Dower


    How can they afford to hand out all this money???


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 12,333 ✭✭✭✭JONJO THE MISER


    Yeah i was thinking the same, maybe they did not expect that so many people would win the million.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,836 ✭✭✭Sir Gallagher


    They should make people do insane sh1t for a million, the japanese are top dogs when it comes to this.
