Just watching this show right now, brand new "quiz" show with Bob Saget as the host.

Saget is acctually good in the role, cracking some funny jokes....decent show...the only thing I have an issue with is the name, everytime the contestant has to make a decision Bob asks, "money or the mob" and that should clearly be the name of the show....but instead they have gone with 1 vs 100......we shall see if it lasts.

When i first saw an ad for this, I immediately thought it was going to bomb, and bring deal or no deal along with it..

then again, I thought deal or no deal was going to bomb.. and i actually kind of enjoy that show..

Yeah, I like deal or no deal. There are some freaky risk takers out there! I thnk this show will last myself, although I liked both kidnapped and Smith, so what do I know?

I watched 1 vs 100 and i liked it...I was impressed.

Two things stuck out for me in this episode...

1. Bob's use of the word "Shiggles"

2. Return of the living legend, a personal hero of mine, Ken Jeopardy (a.k.a. Ken Jennings). They should just have him in the mob everytime they run this show.

Just a thought but I think they didn't want to use "Money or The Mob" as a title because it's too much like "Deal or No Deal".

agreed - shiggles was awesome.

adding to that:
3. The guy who could have asked among many others, Ken Jennings, but picks the Deal or No Deal girl - good for him!

I liked the show, but another thing that I think they need to change is the "helps", as in You have 2 helps in the game. They need a new name for that, like.......lifelines.

I watched part of this and while it isn't a bad format - the questions are so bloody easy that it became very boring very quickly. That could be the plan of the show but I mean who couldn't get some of those questions wrong.

Yeah, that was my reaction to it.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. They seem to be mostly pop culture questions which I think is kinda dumb. Hopefully once a contestant gets into the later rounds there will be some more education based questions.

I didn't watch it, but if Bob Saget is hosting they should put in on HBO so he can let the expletives fly! The man is so different then the danny Tanner character he played on Full House and AFMV that it's rediculous.

Yeah I saw his stand up act when I was stil living in Calgary.....I almost sh** myself, I had no idea Saget did that kind of comedy!
