Deal or No Deal

It is common for contestants to appear across two game shows, and in this prominent case of Graham K Furness, his appearance on The Chase Australia in 2019 came eighteen years after he appeared on The Weakest Link in 2001.

I should also mention that I’ve applied to be on Deal Or No Deal

So he won $150 on the Seven version, tonight he won almost $6,000.

I think 10 should air one hour of the American version of Deal or No Deal from four o’clock. This could be a good lead into 10 News First.

10 messed with the 4-5pm timeslot not too long ago, and it didn’t go well.

They’d be mad to tinker with it again, and don’t think more DOND is the answer.

TVNZ 1 is adding another repeat as a replacement for a 1 News Tonight bulletin as will end this Friday. So TVNZ 1 in New Zealand is airing Deal Or No Deal Australia three times at repeat screening at 12pm, new episodes at 4:30 as a lead in to The Chase and finally 10:30 something that your broadcaster Network 10 would never do

Have you seen how many times 10 encores these episodes over the course of the week? :joy:

Timeslot?

7.30pm

Are they removing it from 6pm or having a separate “Celebrity Edition” (etc) at 7.30pm? An hour?

Seperate show. Celebrity version, not 100% sure on duration yet.

I’ll punt on it being an hour like the Family Feud specials were - but I do wish they’d keep it at a tight 30 minute format.

This is Going to be a Very Interesting Year of Fun and Excitement with Grant Denyer in 2024 this year for Primetime.

They still haven’t learned from Family Feud? Beat the Chasers was also a flop. Not a good call

This Is Very Exciting

What’s the source on Primetime DonD

I don’t think it was a flop. Didn’t it average 600k+ metro. Which is a good figure. Given shows like MasterChef, Lego & Idol are getting 600-800k nationally

I think only reason there wasn’t more seasons was due to the lawsuit

Not really anything to write home about. It’s a waste not trying anything new. It will be grant overkill and one hour episodes will be too long and boring. Not sure this is the strategy they need. This is a terrible idea.
