Wow, way to throw any credibility this might have had out the window in the very first post.

You waited that long? I knew it was shot when he gave 3's A Crowd an 8.

I wasn't really reading it closely enough to notice that.  The 11 just sorta jumped out. :-)

I used to watch it when it was on GSN back in 2000-2001. I know alot of people do not like this show, but, I do.[/quote]I'm the curious sort, so I want to know. What was it about this show you enjoyed? I watched exactly one episode when Chez Eberle got GSN back in 1998, and confidently said "That's enough of THAT". Different strokes and all of that, but really, what's the draw here?

Well, I can't answer for the poster you're asking, but, since I am one of the few that liked the show as well, I'll give my reasons for liking it...

I thought it was an interesting take on Newlywed Game and did provide for some very funny moments, especially when the secretary and wife would go at it, while the husband just sat there with a stupid grin on his face.  Or, even worse, when the husband would reveal some intimate detail about his love life, and the secretary would know it, but not the wife.  What can I say?  I also watch "Cheaters," if that gives you any indication as to where my brain is....

I got a huge laugh out of the look on Jim Peck's face about halfway through the first episode, where he seemed to be thinking, "Why the HELL did I sign up to host this?"

Now, 3AC is not anywhere on my top 50 list, and it was never appointment TV even when it was on regularly, but I also didn't find it a bad show to watch, either.  I think it got better after I saw Extreme Gong, though....

You should get TV Guide channel.  They have been running hour-long blocks of the show every weekday at 5 eastern for some time now.

That's right. you did give your opinion.  And in turn, others gave theirs.

On this board, if you disagree with something that someone else posts, you actually are allowed to answer.

You also said this:

Yet it seems you took offense to the very first opinion someone offered which disagreed with yours, no?

Mathematics, mostly.

And yeah, for someone who promised that "I will not be offended If someone disagrees with me", it sure didn't take you very long.

What's wrong with it is that there is no such thing as "11 out of 10."  Just saying that makes the entire concept of having a scale completely meaningless.

You know What? I have had enough. GSGuy comes here trying to give an innocent Recap of what he thought about the Countdown and you guys once again act like Jerks. Everyone of you involved in this. Even you moderators are involved in this. Why? Just because a guy gives an 11 out of 10 that gives you guys a right to flame him. This may be my last post here, but you know what? I don't give a damn. GsGuy is one of my friends and I can not just sit here and allow you idiots to do this to him. I have lost alot of respect for each and everyone of you guys involved.

I am pretty sure this is it for me, but as I said I don't care. The way you treat a of friend of mines and heck the way you treat Mark Odor makes me sick. GSN boards are 100% percent better than this place. GSGuy buddy don't post here anymore. They don't care about your opinion, they only care about themselves.

Now go ahead David, Ban Me.

Excuse me?  You demanded that we have rules but not enforce them, left here in a huff when we refused, and then weaseled your way back on here, all the while continuing to trash us on the GSN board.  You can't lose respect for us when you never had any to begin with.  You have respect only for yourself and for your post count.

And if you think that expecting someone to defend his opinion or follow basic math is "flaming," then you have a lot to learn about what the word means.  (Hint: it's not defined as "anything Guide_Angel wouldn't allow.")  He expressed an opinion, claimed that he wouldn't mind if others disagreed, then started whining the moment someone disagreed.  That's not "being flamed," that's being asked to defend your opinion.

To borrow the words of my co-moderator Matt, this is pretty basic stuff... for adults.

I am pretty sure this is it for me, but as I said I don't care. The way you treat a of friend of mines and heck the way you treat Mark Odor makes me sick. GSN boards are 100% percent better than this place.

Then why did you storm out of here and then beg to be allowed back in?

GSGuy buddy don't post here anymore. They don't care about your opinion, they only care about themselves.

Pot.  Kettle.  Black.

Now go ahead David, Ban Me.

As much as it may disappoint some of your fellow members, being a rank hypocrite isn't a ban-worthy offense.

You've already demanded that we have rules but not enforce them.  Is showing some maturity as difficult for you as following a few simple rules?
