“Identity” Sinks in Night Two

20 Dec

Posted by Alex Davis as Identity, NBC, Ratings

Even with the top prize given away, “Identity” fell quite a bit from its first outing. The Tuesday episode received a 5.4/9, down quite a bit from the last episode because of the “Deal or No Deal” lead-in. However, the show is at “1 vs. 100″ level right now, so its safe for the time being. If it goes down again tonight, it might not be pretty.

Side note- now I have another issue with the show. The mystique of the top prize is gone. I really think that’s what keeps me DVRing “Deal or No Deal” and “1 vs. 100″: it’s extremely hard to win, but it is obtainable. “Identity” basically showed it’s a bit easier to win than, say, “Wheel of Fortune”, which isn’t that great. If this was a syndicated or cable show with a medium budget, I think it would have been fine. However, with the $500,000 gone already, it’s just not that big of a deal anymore to me. It does prove that some people are, well, special enough to risk go double or nothing though.

without the DOND lead in, i think that’s pretty good ratings for a new show…i get the mystique factor alex…but you gotta give that kid credit last night…a majority of us would’ve walked out with the $250,000 and said thank you! not only did he continue and win it all, he kept us on the edge of our seats at the end and was hysterical throughout the show! i fell in love with him…like i said in my other post, i think nbc should scoop this kid up and put him in one of their new sitcoms or something…hahahahaa!

Did anyone notice that on their play at home game, last night it was who used rogaine. If you noticed on the rogaine commercial, they told you who it was. That makes the game even more boring for at home viewers.

Tonight we had nice extra treat………

Phire Dawson “Price Is Right Model” was one of the 12 in a game tonight, and looking smoking hot! I also found it a bit funny when one of the family members, (the son I think) made a remark that Price Models probably don’t wear anything that revealing?

Ok, I’m not saying he doesn’t watch the show, but apparently he doesn’t watch it enough, if you know what I mean. :p
