If you are a fan of game shows, or watch NBC for a few seconds, you know that Jessica Robinson is the first millionaire on Deal or No Deal. It’s been slow news-wise the past few days, so I looked at NBC’s press site.  I get a kick out of what they did.  As you probably know, they spoiled the big win to levels that are unbelievable.  You couldn’t turn on NBC or look at any NBC or Deal related content and not be spoiled.  However, they were nice enough to not post a thing about it on the press site until a day or two after it happened.  They threw the pictures up well over a day after it happened as well as a press release.  I guess the public is fine to spoil with exact details, but the press wants to be kept in the dark.  Below are some nice pictures of the win, though.

Many sources are saying that NBC co-chairman Ben Silverman is on his way out for the pretty lousy job he’s done so far.  Some reports are saying that basically there’s only one show NBC expects to be a hit next season and the rest look to be disasters.  With the stunts he’s pulled (not just this Deal one.  There have been many others for many different shows), I think NBC needs some major help from someone completely new.  But hey, with the apparently crappy schedule coming, there’s a chance we might see some more 1 VS 100 at least. 

 

I’m really sorry for no updates.  You know, we have a few other writers but if they don’t write anything while I’m away for a few days, sadly you guys are screwed.  I will make sure something like this doesn’t happen again.
