Seven has stopped Deal or No Deal to ‘focus on Million Dollar Minute’ admits host Andrew O’Keefe
O’Keefe on Deal or No Deal
Channel Seven stopped filming its long-running early evening gameshow Deal or No Deal at the end of last year and had been running repeats for the last three months, with host Andrew O’Keefe admitting to Mumbrella the show had become tired after its ten year run.
O’Keefe, who made his name as host of the popular gameshow which launched in Australia in 2004, gave his strongest hint yet to Mumbrella during a live video hangout today with Weekend Sunrise co-host Monique Wright, that Seven will not be bringing back the show after filming the last of around 2,200 episodes at the end of last year.
Pity, gave Australians a good insight into risk, when to deal or not deal and take the cash
Bring it back! I love it
I remember seeing Andrew O’Keefe in comedy sketches (Big Bite I think) sending up vacuous game show hosts and TV presenters with over modulated voices, cheesy catch phrases and phony empathy. He turned into the very thing he used to ridicule.
What’s the problem? Nine have been showing repeats of Hot Seat for ages. Lucky if they air one new program per week.
Bring it back!!! It’s a great show…..Million Dollar Minute is boring……
Bring it back! It’s so much better than Million Dollar Minute!
