The Howie Mandel TV show was shot in Los Angeles and lasted for one season
 
Established
comedian and television star Howie Mandel hosted and served as executive producer
of The Howie Mandel Show, a short-lived daytime talk/variety show produced and
distributed by Paramount Domestic Television. Mandel has since found success as the host of a different show, the NBC game show Deal or No Deal. He has another series for NBC as well, called Howie Do It.
Mandel
first rose to fame as a stand-up comedian, and appeared on The Tonight
Show Starring Johnny Carson more then 20 times. His profile
was heightened with his role as Dr. Wayne Fiscus on the multi-Emmy Award-winning
medical drama St. Elsewhere, which ran from 1982-88.
Mandel's credits as both comedian and actor are extensive. He headlined his 10th cable special, "HBO Comedy Hour: Howie Mandel
on Ice." Upon completion of that same-titled tour he performed in sold out
concerts in major venues across the country, including Radio City Music Hall,
Carnegie Hall, and Caesar's Palace. Aside from his touring schedule,
Howie Mandel also had success with several seasons of the animated series Bobby's
World.
As executive producer, Mandel was involved in writing, as well as providing
the voice of Bobby, Bobby's dad, and other characters. Since becoming the first
animated series for the Fox Kids Network in 1990, Bobby's World garnered several Emmy Award nominations.
Mandel
has taken his respected sensibilities with kids to release a series of interactive
animated CD-ROM's aimed at educating children while entertaining
them. The discs are distributed by 7th Level and include "Tuneland,"
"Lil' Howie's Great Word Adventure, "Lil' Howie's Great Math
Adventure" and "Lil' Howie's Great Reading Adventure." An instant
success, the CD-ROM series has won 36 awards and critical acclaim worldwide.
A
Toronto native, Howie Mandel owned carpet stores before beginning his comedy career
on a dare during a business trip to Los Angeles in 1979, when his friends
coaxed him to perform on amateur night at the legendary Comedy Store. A producer
in the crowd that night hired him on-the-spot to appear on the
comedy game show Make Me Laugh. That run led to talk show appearance,
a stint as Diana Ross's opening act, and eventually led to his role
on St. Elsewhere.
He lives
in Los Angeles with his wife and three children. |
