Would like to check this out
I saw the US version tonight, the UK version last month (which looks bargain basement) and would like to check out how the Aussies do the show. Can anyone help?

basically in 2003 and 2004 the show started off being 60 min
and the prizes ranged from 50cents to 2million dollars(in 2004)
they did about a months worth of episodes and nobody came even close to the
2million so now they have shortened it to 30min
the 30min show is on every weekday and the prizes range from 50cents to 200thousand dollars(australian) at the beginning they randomly select a podium of
25 ppl and they also randomly select a 26th player
then the 26 contestants are asked three questions and the person who anwers the most correct in the shortest amount of time wins
they select a case and the dealing begins
6 cases are opened first then a deal
then comes 5,4,3,2,and finally one at a time
most contestants make it to opening one at a time with high amounts remaining
while sum are unlucky and dont
once in a while the contestants get offered a chance to forgo their deal and take wateva is in their case though this only happens when the only two amounts remaining are both high and low e.g. 100 and 200000
they also get offered a mega case though i havent seen it in a while where they open up a mega case and win the amount in there , the amounts in this case range from 10 to 30000
hope that helps
apparently they are changing the format on January 30th
which wouldnt surprise me since sum ppl arent really entertaining and dont
know when to stop

I can tell you that the host is everything - Andrew O'Keefe makes "Deal" the brilliant show it is simply through his brilliant hosting style.
Without seeing the US or UK versions, I can't tell you much about the differences sorry.
nah i cant watch this show because of him...he has no tact, is continuously looking at the camera and for praise (something ive noticed bert newton doing on that stupid family fued thing) and he really has no sense of humour...i watch it with the sound muted coz i always get sucked in but cant stand him
