Deal or No Deal

But none of these features were part of the 7 version at the start. They all started a few years in. Let 10 get the basics under control first before they add tweaks.

A Current Affair and Home and Away barely get that number. I highly doubt Deal will get a million viewers at 7pm.

But it would get more viewers at 7:00pm than at 6:00pm.

My heart jumped in shock when he turned down $41,900!

Our viewing habits were different then.

Also shows how dire 10s prime time schedule is. This gets worse and worse for them.

Yes - and that’s the point. Times have changed, we can’t expect budgets to be what they were 15 years ago.

Sidegames were introduced after the Olympics. The Supercase debuted as a random amount and DoN debuted in 2006 with a case (similar to the Supercase) with either “DOUBLE” or "NOTHING. The Case I and Case II format was introduced in 2007 and the contestant can’t choose how much they’d gamble.

I’ve always wondered what the point of older people going on these shows is. What did she say she’d do with the money (didn’t watch so don’t know if she won or not)?

Strange comment. There would be a large proportion of older audience watching who would love to see their age group represented now and then.

did they at least give her a stool or something? They didn’t make her stand the whole time like normal did they?

Well yeah but I just mean when there’s a large cash prize on the table, they can’t possibly do much with it.

They could simply spend their winnings on goods and services, likely anyone else who wins.

Odd comment. She was there to enjoy the experience but anyone at any stage of life can have uses of the $$$.

Sounds like y’all should’ve watched! Yes she had a stool.
