Weakest Link?
 
Did anyone watch this new gameshow which originated in the UK? It has like a WHO WANTS TO BE...BIG BROTHER KIND OF FEEL. The contestants VOTE OFF who is the weakest link!

Whenever I hear "weak link" it reminds me of something....hmmmmm. I wonder what? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

I can relate, soror. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif I did watch the show. Did y'all see Marcus give Karen the hand when he left the stage?

They may like her antics in the U.K. but I don't at all. I think she loves to cut others down. she could have kept her comments about the high schooler to herself. One thing though, I know I will be using her catchphrase from time to time.

I have a question...who said that it never aired in the UK? All articles I've read and news bits have all said that it premiered last August on BBC2.

I think having Cruella Deville as the host is neat. Having a female hosting a game show is a pretty big deal, considering there haven't been that many in the past.

Think of it this way...Survivor 1 winner Richard Hatch taped a pilot for the first episode. I'd rather have Cruella at the helm. If you look at the people I deal with every day...she's not so bad.

I just caught a part of it and I kept laughing. Brits are mean to each other anyway so this lady isn't an exception.

What's with us stealing so many Euroshows anyway?

AKA2D '91 04-17-2001 09:51 PM

Isn't America known for that.....STEALING?

I am watching it now....man this is pathetic, i'd rather be watching BET music videos (that was supposed to be sarcasm)

I like this show. I also watched CHAINS of LOVE tonight.

I like the host. She is a take no mess type of host. I did not like how they got rid of Jill over Cheryl but oh well.

Kevin had me ROFLMAO when he named THE FUGEES in place of TLC.

I checked out the show tonight and I thought it was pretty interesting. I liked the host too. She was on Jay Leno the other night and she said the American contestants are meaner/ruder than the UK contestants. I thought that was kinda interesting since she's rude herself. But I think it's funny. It definitely adds a different spin to the show and game shows period. I mean, who's ever seen a rude game show host? http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif
I did find myself wondering this though: If this show really takes off, how long before she gets tired of saying "It's time to play, the weakest link!" in that sorta quick tone she does? Seems like it would start to get pretty old after a few 100 times! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif

Who does that host think she is. I couldn't even finish watching it last night because of that witch. I hate being around or hearing negative people

I watched part of it. But NBC is supposedly in trouble because they announced this show as "A huge hit in England", and it's never even aired in Europe.

If you watched it last night, did you hear Jill (the Black female attorney from Detroit) say she is comfortable on stage because she is not afraid of the host!!!!!! I said "you go girl!!!" If you noticed the host didn't mess with her after that!!!!!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif
