Howie Mandel should be quite happy about this one, as TBS renewed Deal With It for season two of the game show produced and headlined by the comedian.
TBS has renewed Deal With It with a 10-episode order for season two. Hosted by Theo Von (Primetime in No Time, Last Comic Standing, Road Rules), season one of the series has averaged 2.3 million viewers in Live + 7 delivery, including 1.2 million adults 18-49. Deal With It is produced for TBS by Howie Mandel’s Alevy Productions, Roy Bank’s Banca Studio and Keshet Broadcasting, in association with Lionsgate Television. Howie Mandel (Deal or No Deal, Mobbed), Mike Marks (Mobbed), Roy Bank (It’s Worth What?, Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?) and Mike Harney (Howie Do It, H8R) serve as executive producers, along with Keshet’s Avi Nir, Igal Shilon, Ami Glam, Ran Tellem, Guy Wasserman and Itay Barkan. Deal With It is based on a successful format created by Keshet Broadcasting and United Studios. The second season is slated to launch in 2014.
In TBS’s Deal With It, unsuspecting members of the public are secretly recruited to pull a prank on their unwitting companions with absolutely no time to prepare. If they agree to participate, they must obey all instructions given through an earpiece from a secret control room nearby. With the opportunity to prank their way to cash and prizes, these everyday people are shown no mercy as they are tasked with pulling off some of the most ridiculous behavior ever caught on hidden camera. Adding to the fun, the pranks on Deal With It are fed to the contestants by special celebrity guests.
