One of my many (many!) guilty pleasures on television is Deal or No Deal.
It's "turn your brain off" fun. It just cracks me up when the contestant, Howie, or one of the ladies pretend they have some control of what dollar amount will be in the case. I like to participate as well. I will whoop and holler when the ladies come out and applaud or groan depending on what's in the case. Now, this is not necessarily for Todd's entertainment benefit, I've been known to do this even when watching the show myself. And no, alcohol is not usually involved.
Since W&C rarely showcases pretty ladies, I figured I shake it up a bit and present you...
My Top 5 Deal or No Deal gals.

From left to right, and in alphabetical order by name..
Anya (#10), Claudia (#1), Hayley (#25), Meghan (#24), and Tameka (#21)
While I love the Deal ladies, don't you think it would be special "boys" night with male models... maybe even get a female guest-host!? Hey, Kathy Griffin is in the family via Bravo... now that would be hilarious!

As I sit here looking at my computer screen I see Anya, Claudia, Hayley, Meghan, and Tameka, Dolly Parton, Paula Dean and four women from the show Vegas in the banner. I gotta think WTF? Which team did you say you played for? Sorry, just an observation...

Deal or No Deal has been around for several years now in Australia, the format is fairly similar, only the 'Case Ladies' are all dressed identically, and have matching wigs. No idea why, in fact it's downright bizaree.
Mark and I have even been on the show, right back when it first started. The taping itself is a VERY tedious process, 11 hours in total for 2 x 1 hour shows.
So having been in the studio, I'm not quite so excited about it. Although the idea of a special boys night might just get my patronage. ;)
