Endemol Sells Rest of Your Life to ABC; Show Me the Money Goes to Fox
A.J. Frutkin

Following NBC's success with Endemol USA's Deal or No Deal, the
Dutch-based content supplier is fanning out over all the networks with
game show ideas, striking deals both with ABC and Fox.

At ABC, Endemol sold For the Rest of Your Life, in which contestants
compete for prize money which is dispensed on a monthly basis for as
long as they live.

An annuity, perhaps?

Fox has ordered Endemol's Show Me the Money, a trivia game show, in
which the prize cash continually alters between the millions and zero.

Last week, Endemol sold game show 1 vs. 100 to NBC, which pits a
single contestant against an opposing team of 100. Each correct answer
by the contestant eliminates some of those opponents. A record-setting
$3 million will be offered as prize money.

Earlier this season, CBS picked up FremantleMedia's Game Show
Marathon, in which celebrity contestants will compete in a number of
classic formats from the Mark Goodson library ("The Price is Right,"
"Match Game," "Beat the Clock," etc.), which FreMantle now owns.
