"Deal or No Deal" watchers: --Just curious, no judgments from me-->>?

Question

Do you cheer for the players Or are you gleeful (for lack of a better word at the moment) when their choices lead them to the lower amounts? And why do you think that is--for you and/or others? And how intensly are you involved? I ask because I was so engroused in tonight's show that my heart was pounding & I was shouting numbers and "low #, low #" as if in the audience. I didn't cry when she lost, but I was, for a few moments, saddened & felt dis-appointment for her. (and, I know I'm opening myself up for an on-slaught of wise-cracks here, but)
--Any thoughts on this? --

Answer 1

i say "no not that number! number 26!" when they pick a bad number. then they lose a hgih number. i get mad at the family members when they tell the person a number to pick and they get like 750,000. yeah. i sorta laugh when they go down like 20,000 on their offer

and theres this parody game on the internet called 'meal or no meal'. the %.01 is a dead chicken.

Answer 2

I personally root for the people. i wish I could see someone will the million. But, I get rally involved, like I do in real life. I love helping and cheering on other people. I get pretty intensly involved most of the time, unless they get cocky, then they bore me.

Answer 3

I root for the people to win but I get so mad at them when they turn down a really good offer and end up with a smaller amount!

Answer 4

Definitely don't become so engrossed in television shows. They are mostly false anyway. They do have a disclaimer on the credits at the end of the show.

Answer 5

i feel the same way. I really get into the show. I root for some players, and root against some. It is the most intense show on tv !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 6

Yeah, I also feel like I am in the audience! It feel all too real!
