Deal or No Deal/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Missing Episode: For some reason [dead link], NBC yanked at least two — the very first game of the Million-Dollar Mission (with LeAnn Rimes) was pulled because the network didn't think a contestant knocking out both $1,000,000 cases right off the bat was a good way to start (she was still given the $50,000 she earned), and another because it wasn't exciting enough (although it eventually got on their website, which is now devoid of all DOND videos).
  • Screwed by the Network: NBC apparently didn't learn about the consequences of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?'s Wolverine Publicity and, much like Millionaire, the network's actions eventually led to a drop in the show's popularity and subsequent cancellation after four seasons. The show was screwed with so often, and so badly, that people got sick of the syndicated version as well, which was canned after two seasons.
