BURBANK, CA - Howie Mandel, Emmy Award-nominated host of NBC's "Deal Or No Deal," revealed in a special surprise appearance during last night's finale of NBC's "Last Comic Standing" that — for the first time — the million-dollar top prize will be given away this season on the hit game show. "Deal or No Deal" premieres Monday, August 25 (8-9 p.m. ET).
The Million Dollar Mission is back and it will eventually be "mission accomplished" this season as the premiere episode will kick off with four $1 million cases on the board — increasing the contestants' chance to win the top prize. For each consecutive game without a million-dollar winner, an additional million-dollar case will be added to the board. But the question remains — which episode will see the first million- dollar winner crowned? Viewers and fans of the show will have to tune-in to find out.
"Deal or No Deal" is produced by Endemol USA, a division of Endemol Holding. David Goldberg is the president of Endemol USA. The series is executive-produced by Scott St. John.
