Big Deal is a television game show that aired in the United States for six weeks in 1996 on FOX. It was hosted by Mark DeCarlo and packaged by Stone-Stanley Productions, with swing group Big Bad Voodoo Daddy as the house band. Due to low ratings, it only lasted six episodes; the series was originally scheduled to return in the spring of 1997, shortened to a half-hour and with Heidi Mark joining DeCarlo as co-host, but these plans were ultimately scrapped.
Best of the Worst is a show aired by Fox Broadcasting Company as a part of its 1991-92 schedule. Best of the Worst, hosted by Greg Kinnear, was a lighthearted celebration of the worst elements of life — the worst movies, the worst places to get married, the worst museums, the worst airline food, and the worst Elvis impersonators being only a few of the "worst" examples. There was even a special correspondent reporting from Japan, David Spector, apparently to prove that North America had no monopoly on life's worst things. Apparently one of the worst aspects of this program was its Nielsen ratings as it was cancelled at midseason. It finished dead last out of 98 shows and only averaged a 4.42 rating.
It's Your Chance of a Lifetime was an American game show that aired on Fox in June 2000. Australian TV personality Gordon Elliott hosted the show, with Mark Thompson serving as announcer.
