Let's Make a DealSeason 11963 · 31 episodesEpisodes1Monday December 30, 1963 (Debut in Color on NBC)21963-1964 seasonThe pilot episode (which was taped in late 1963), aired on Game Show Network on March 4, 2003 (and was repeated several times). Among the deals: • Monty deals with a woman who ends up with an inexpensive fur coat. Near the end of the show, when Monty announced the Big Deal and the coat's winner, Maggie Guth, opted for the Big Deal, Hall revealed one of the coat's pockets had something in them -- five shares of U.S. Steel stock worth $265 Note: The above mentioned deal often was a trick Monty used in the future when contestants won zonks, to tempt them into keeping them or passing it up for another unknown. Yup, there might be a valuable prize (or perhaps, another zonk, and so on) concealed inside. The U.S. Steel stock prize was fairly modest, even by 1963 standards, but many times, there were such things as car keys, plane tickets to exotic destinations and checks/wads of cash worth thousands of dollars hidden inside those cheap furs, dusty living room couches, broken TVs, etc. • A wom3Tuesday December 31, 19634Wednesday January 1, 1964 (Preempted for NCAA Football)5Thursday January 2, 19646Friday January 3, 19647Monday January 6, 19648Tuesday January 7, 19649Wednesday January 8, 196410Thursday January 9, 196411Friday January 10, 196412Monday January 13, 196413Tuesday January 14, 196414Wednesday January 15, 196415Thursday January 16, 196416Friday January 17, 196417Monday January 20, 196418Tuesday January 21, 196419Wednesday January 22, 196420Thursday January 23, 196421Friday January 24, 196422Monday January 27, 196423Tuesday January 28, 196424Wednesday January 29, 196425Thursday January 30, 196426Friday January 31, 196427Monday February 3, 196428Tuesday February 4, 196429Wednesday February 5, 196430Thursday February 6, 196431Friday February 7, 1964Season 2Season 3Season 4Season 5Season 6Season 7Season 8Season 9Season 10Season 11Season 12Season 13Season 14Season 15Season 16Season 17Season 18Season 19
