Take It All: Howie Mandel Gives a Sneak Peek

We're really looking forward to the new Howie Mandel vehicle Take It All, especially after hearing more about the show from Howie himself! Today he held a conference call to preview the show and answer some questions, and he's upbeat and enthusiastic about the game.

We've already covered the basics of how the game works. Howie described the general atmosphere and strategy behind the game, as well as lots of details about what we can expect when we watch. There will be additional elements, such as a "block" that would allow a contestant to hang on to a prize that he or she has chosen during one round.

Take It All was compared to Deal or No Deal quite a bit during the call, and it's interesting to note that Deal started out as a holiday event show as well. Maybe we'll be seeing Take It All on a regular basis after December - who knows?

For all the details of the conference call, head over to my recap of Howie Mandel's thoughts on the show.
