Deal or No Deal to air in December!

Although they've recently changed it so that although they still open them, the losing contestants can now make guesses.

That's how it's always worked on the Aussie version...if a losing contestant's guess as to his/her case's contents is correct, it's worth a modest payoff, depending on what point in the round it's made at.

Sorry dude, you're misunderstanding - you're right this has always been the case in the Aussie show. But in the Mexican show, models open the briefcases (a la USA) but losing contestants still get a chance to guess the contents for a prize (this didn't used to be the case, models used to open the briefcase and the losers got no chance at anything).

Backtracking a bit...

tvwxman: Go back and read Craig's first post. I think he meant he doesn't want NBC to back out of DOND with episodes left on the table, as was the case with MKOT.

Hopefully, ABC will finish off that series at some point either on the mother net or on ABC Family. I was getting to like it.

As to DOND, I don't see the same problem coming up. They'll probably take a small hit on Monday in the West and Rockies, but after that it should be smooth sailing.

Had you bothered to look back in this thread, you would see a link to NBC's page, which should give you a pretty good idea what the set looks like.

Clearly, you couldn't be bothered.

Either that, or he could've found out by watching the Southern/Grambling college football game--NBC plugged the hell out of the show during the telecast.

I found the link. After looking at the picture I thought to myself...

"Black...Blue...Purple....yet another bruise for the peacock." (RIMSHOT!)

Seriously, It's nice to see a primetime set on primetime for a change, but why have 26 models?  Wouldn't 26 podiums be cheaper?

Same here. I absolutely devour football now (whether it be high school, college, or NFL), but before the age of about 14, I couldn't give two squats about it.
