| 4 | Deal or No Deal - One cannot turn this program on (at least the UK version, not sure about elsewhere) without seeing someone claiming that there's a "pattern" or that their "magic crystal" is attracted to red. It started as a fairly straighforward game of chance, but has since almost turned into a walking advertisement for New Age crap. Although as they almost invariably fail, this isn't all bad. |
