- Deal or No Deal was an Australian game show that aired on the Seven Network from 13 July 2003 to 4 October 2013. It was the first international version of the game show, after the original Miljoenenjacht from the Netherlands. It was the first of the versions to use the Deal or No Deal name. Many changes were made to Deal or No Deal during its run. These included, among others, changing from a weekly format to a daily format, which resulted in the reduction of the top prize from $2,000,000 to $200,000; interactive features inviting home viewers to play along with "Double Deal Friday"; and additional special features added to the game (such as "Double or Nothing" and "Super Case"). The show included many special episodes including several hour-long prime-time specials (such as the "Test of the Psychics Special" and the "Unluckiest Players Special") and the successful Dancing with the Deals which occurred in conjunction with Dancing with the Stars. No new episodes were produced since 2013, with only repeat episodes airing at 5:00 pm weeknights from October 2013 to September 2015. It was announced in March 2014 that no new episodes will be produced, and in August 2015 it was announced that the show, along with Million Dollar Minute, would be axed and replaced by a new one-hour game show titled The Chase Australia.
