Howie Mandel hosts the popular game show where contestants could walk away with a million dollars.  They don't have to know any trivia.  They don't have to vote anyone off the island.  They just have to answer a simple question:

Deal or No Deal?

Rules of the Game 

From the Official Website.

Each night, a contestant is confronted with 26 sealed briefcases full of varying amounts of cash - ranging from a measly penny to $1 million. The contestant picks one -- his to keep, if he chooses - until its unsealing at game's end.

The player must then eliminate the remaining 25 cases - which are opened and the amount of cash inside revealed. The pressure mounts as in each round, after a number of cases are opened, the participant is tempted by "the Banker" to accept an offer of cash in exchange for what might be contained in the chosen briefcase - prompting the all-important question - Deal or No Deal?

As long as the larger cash prizes haven't been opened, the Banker's deals only get higher. And if the conflicted contestant accidentally opens a case with a bigger cash value - the Banker's offer could suddenly evaporate.
