They really could've had this cut down to a thirty minute show or an hour with two couples. I don't need a story with EVERY answer/decision! I'm watching for the game, not YOU! Shaddap and play!!!

Amen!!!!
shareI agree it is annoying, but I think the producers and whatnot tell them to tell personal stories or whatever.
shareYes, I'm sure they do. That's part of the interview process. If you can't turn a yes/no answer into a 2 minute speech, you won't be on this type of show.
I just watched some reruns of "Card Sharks" which I had seen only when I was very young. It was horrible how they rambled on when they gave their answers (Q/A before they went through the cards). It isn't natural or normal by any means.
The couple this week were insufferable, especially the wife wit the contract story at the end. STFU, lady!
shareI can buzz through an episode in about 40 minutes when I fast forward through all the padding crap like that and more.
This is why we DVR it in our house. We get through an episode in about 30-35 minutes not listening to all their stupid anecdotes and superstitions about the slot number they've chosen.
shareThank you. The inane reasoning they pick a slot is just beyond tiresome. "We have two kids, so I am picking slot two." "I met my wife on the 7th, so I am picking slot 7."
NOBODY F'ING CARES! Just put the balls in whatever slot you want and stop trying to make it sound like it's a magic number that owes you something in the universe.
Those are the morons I love to watch lose. And why it was so funny to see the idiot who lost 1.3 million. He was the worst example of everything I hate about the contestants on this show.
I also hate the gesturing they do as the balls fall, as if waving their hands will somehow create enough wind to move the balls where they want them to go. I mean, I get that it's probably directed by the producers (and I do recall my mother doing the same kind of thing when she would try to play video games with us as kids -- move the controller thinking it would assist the game character), but it's still irksome to watch. Again, fast-forward is a godsend.
I was rooting for the couple last night to lose because of the way the lady kept repeating "one dolla, one dolla, one dolla" every time there was a red ball drop. I didn't understand where she suddenly picked up a northeast accent when they were from Texas, lol.
We fast forward those parts too. Who cares!
shareSeriously! I'm starting to root for them to get nothing. It's ridiculous.
shareBlame the producers of the show. They probably told them to go nuts, wave your hands and yell. They got to sell the show and people acting normal doesn't bring the excitement and drama that the producers want. Hell, even the contestants probably think if they act over the top, they will get noticed and get on the show. If my reserved parents got on the show, it would be canceled that week. My mom saying "oh, that's nice" and my dad deadpanning "that was a fortuitous bounce" will kill the show.

To me, an episode like that would be worth watching.
As it is, I think I am done with this show. I tried to give it a chance and realized after posting here I hate it way too much to waste anymore time on it.
Blame the producers of the show.
I don't know how they do it... do they go to special BS classes? Real people don't speak like this. And, yes, they are very annoying.
