LOS ANGELES, Aug. 3 (UPI) -- CBS says it has hired U.S. comedian Wayne Brady as host of its new version of the television game show "Let's Make a Deal."
The one-hour daytime series is to premiere Oct. 5, the network said Monday. It is described as "a new take on the classic game show where audience members dress in outlandish costumes to win cash and prizes by making deals with the host."
