A twist on the original Deal or No Deal TV series, this show drew mediocre ratings for NBC in its first season. Will the numbers improve this time around? Will Deal or No Deal Island be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned.
A competition series, the Deal or No Deal Island TV show is hosted by Joe Manganiello. In this new format, 13 players are transported to the elusive Banker’s private island, where he makes the rules and twists behind every palm tree. The iconic briefcases are hidden around the island, and players search for them. The player who finds the highest-value case chooses which player will go up against the Banker and potentially be sent packing. The winnings from each game will be added to the jackpot for the season. By the end, only one player will be left standing and face the Banker to potentially win the biggest prize in Deal or No Deal history — over $200 million.
