Last Sunday's Super Bowl football game, which for me was nothing but a Super Bore, was the highest rated TV program in the US, and in Canada as well, drawing more than 3.4 million Canadian viewers. After the game, Global debuted a Canadian version of Deal Or No Deal, featuring all-Canadian contestants, sets, models, and host (Toronto native Howie Mandel). I watched the first episode and I thoroughly enjoyed it. If you missed it, you can catch the complete broadcast on the Global TV website right here:

The next Canadian Deal Or No Deal episode will run this Thursday at 9 pm. It is the 2nd of 5 episodes that were shot in Canada. All of them can be seen on Global each Thursday night. Of course, Global will also feature the original US version whenever it comes on, including tonight. All in all, I'd say this is one Super Deal!
