Howie Mandel Says "No Deal" To Daytime
Wednesday, December 06, 2006
Deal or No Deal will likely be syndicated five days a week beginning next fall. But the big question is: who will host? Talks between NBC Universal and Howie Mandel have collapsed. Mandel is said to be asking for a hefty figure, which NBC U does not want to pay. Arsenio Hall has also passed on the gig. Comic actor Mark Curry of Hangin' With Mr. Cooper fame has also been mentioned as a possible host.
Kingworld is also pitching two game shows for fall 2007: Joker's Wild and Combination Lock. They may never see the light of day due to limited time periods. Warner Bros. and Telepictures is said to be thinking of bringing popular website TMZ to television with a magazine-style show, like Entertainment Tonight. And, get ready for yet another court show. Yesterday, Sony announced Judge David Young, presided by a judge from Miami. Young is best known for giving jail time to two America West pilots that had been drinking before the flight. Judge David Young has already been cleared in 55 percent of the country, including 17 of the 20 top markets. The court genre is healthy as Judge Judy, Judge Maria Lopez, Judge Hatchett, Divorce Court and Judge Alex have already been renewed for the 2007-08 season.
