Who are the Deal or No Deal Models?

Deal or No Deal's massive success is not something anyone could have predicted. Let's be honest here, the actual Deal or No Deal game is pretty darn stupid. There is no skill involved, unless you count “not being a moron” as a skill. It's the equivalent of watching someone play roulette or blackjack; sure it's intriguing, but it's not intellectually stimulating. So, why is it so popular? One answer is that we are a nation of idiots and simple, mind-numbing shows are the ones best suited for the masses. However, I think that explanation is needlessly cynical. One of things that certainly contributes to the success of Deal or No Deal are the Deal or No Deal models.

Yes, the models. They are beautiful and abundant. The way they slowly open those briefcases with their signature deft touch is truly awe inspiring. Frankly, the Deal or No Deal models make the show. Without them, what would you have? A lot of unopened briefcases, for one. My interest in the Deal or No Deal models led me to the NBC website, where each model is profiled with a mini, yet comprehensive biography. This is what I learned:

Alike: One of her goals in life is to publish a reference book. It doesn't say if she plans on writing it, though. Also, is a fan of pancakes.
Anya: Was born in Russia, is trained in the Chinese Martial Art of Wushu, and wants to star in action films.
Aubrie: Plays the harp and has qualified for Mensa.
Brooke: A cheerleading mercenary who has cheered for the San Diego Chargers, the L.A. Avengers, the L.A. Lakers, and the Miami Heat.
Claudia: Has an obsession with “gory stuff” and is an amateur rapper.
Jenelle: Has a boyfriend. Booo.
Jill: Finds skydiving boring, has lived in Taiwan, loves to twirl batons and “plays baseball better than most men”.
Katie: Former America's Next Top Model contestant, loves animals.
Kelly: Can sing opera and is a master chef.
Keltie: Has a fireman boyfriend (typical) and can burp her ABCs.
Laura: Grw up in England, had a pet horse, and has an IQ of 158. Has appeared on the cover of Mensa Magazine.
Leyla: Has acted in a bunch of mvies and TV shows and is an entrepeneur, having once started her very own line of jeans.
Lindsay: Hunts, fishes and shoots archery.
Marisa: A survivor of a rare childhood cancer called Rhabdomyosarcoma.
Megan: Was, apparently, in my class at Loyola Marymount. You'd think I would remember her.
Meghan: A Scrabble fanatic.
Pilar: Former Playboy model who has written two dating books and is trying to develop a cooking show.
Sara: Has played a number of the Seven Dwarves for the Disneyland parade.
Stacey: Has passed the Bar and is now a practicing attorney.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting this from the model's biographies. I was hoping there'd be some embarrassing unintentional comedy. Deal or No Deal hires well-rounded girls to model for them. I'm impressed. Hell, they have two members of Mensa wearing cocktail dresses and opening briefcases for a living. Find another show that can say that.

Curb The TV Habit In 3 Easy Steps
So you're not quite ready to throw the TV away, but you're limiting the time spent viewing television in your home? Here are some easy tips that have worked for me.

1) Identify when and why you watch and change your habits

Do you usually turn the tube on when you get home from work? Why? Do you turn it on in the late afternoon when the kids get home? Why?

Sometimes the TV goes on when we're tired or bored. If you're tired, you either need to: get more sleep or get more exercise. So instead of automatically flipping on the television, why not go for a 10 minute walk to refresh yourself? Or, take a nap!

If you're turning on the TV to "zone out" and decompress after a busy day, try developing a new, healthier habit.

Some examples:

Brew a nice cup of hot tea and drink it slowly.
Write in a journal.
Put your feet up on the couch and listen to music.
Do crossword puzzles (a recent study showed that people who do crosswords on a regular basis are less likely to get Alzheimer's disease.)

2) Make TV watching inconvenient.

A TV does not belong in the bedroom! Keeping one there is bad for a marriage and bad for your love life! It also contributes to insomnia. Put the television in an inconvenient place like the basement. Unplug it. Cover it with a blanket.

3) Give up cable.

I decided a long time ago that I would never have cable. I can think of about a thousand other ways to spend $50 a month (Starbucks, anyone?) plus my husband would probably spend all his time watching the Discovery channel instead of talking to me!

If you live in a semi-rural area, you might not even get any channels if you cancel your cable service. But that would be a good thing if you're trying to limit TV! You can use the TV as a "movie machine" and rent DVDs so that you can at least control the content better.

Here's to turning off the TV and turning on life!

Watching TV Has Never Been More Fun
Have you ever found yourself yelling at the TV after your team just made a boneheaded play and realize there is no one else to share your pain? Or, overcome with emotion when your favorite character died on the O.C., Lost, or 24 and realize there’s not another soul in the room that cares? Have you ever been so engrossed in a show that you would have given anything to be able to interact with the producers, writers, or even the actors? For the past 70 years, television has primarily been an anti-social, one-way device, without an outlet for social interactivity. Well, now that’s changed. Meet BuddyTV.

As more and more people get broadband Internet connections and put computers in their TV rooms (or laptops on their, well, laps) the notion of television as a one-way street is no longer reasonable. While you watch your favorite show, celebrities, experts, friends, family or (possibly) mortal enemies may be providing live commentary at BuddyTV. Everything imaginable is available; live video, live audio, live text, and interactive polls are all part of the BuddyTV experience. In fact, you can broadcast your own, private, live commentary to all your friends and neighbors. The television experience is now a communal one, where people can interact and socialize with both their friends and celebrities.

Television is never going away and it still draws enormous worldwide audiences; the most popular shows in the US drive over 30MM viewers per show. As the world becomes smaller and the global community continues to effortlessly reach across borders and oceans, television must adapt and become a community hub whose programming brings people closer together. It is happening today and it’s exciting, with BuddyTV leading the charge. Watching TV has never been more fun and exciting. Try BuddyTV out and ask youself this: Is this the next evolution of TV?
