This 37 minute pilot, produced on May 25, 1963 with Monty Hall as host and Wendell Niles as announcer/sidekick, led to the premiere of Let's Make a Deal on NBC on December 30, 1963. This aired nationally for the first time forty years later on the Game Show Network.
AMAZING to see such clear color quality for 1963. Almost everything at that time was in B&W.
Everything that wasn't on NBC anyway.
Zachary Dunlap-Tunnage what are you talking about? Almost all television programming in 1963 was in B&W.
@@sean2015
CBS and ABC didn't go *FULL* color until 1965. RCA (owners of NBC at the time) made and sold color TV sets. They could have made NBC *FULL* color anytime before then.
Zachary Dunlap-Tunnage that’s the reason why CBS and ABC were so slow to adopt color programming - because they didn’t want to promote their competitor (NBC)’s product. Color TVs were very uncommon up until 1965 (the year you mentioned) and up until that point they were prohibitively expensive for most households. Adjusted for inflation, in 1962-1963 color TV sets were far more expensive than even a new top-of-the-line desktop computer would be today.
@@sean2015 That's what I meant by my earlier comments with everything NOT on NBC. Also, adjusted for inflation? I would never be able to own a color TV then. I didn't know that.
What polite, soft-spoken people.
Think it's called being civil and having self-respect and respecting others...
Rest in peace, Monty Hall. You made it all look so easy. You will be remembered, not only for Let's Make a Deal but also for your charity contributions. All of your many fans here in Canada are proud to claim you as ours!
Monty Hall just died today, but he can't get into heaven yet because he has to choose his fate between door number 2 or the curtain Carol Merill is standing beside (psst, take the door, Monty!)
Godspeed, Monty, you filled millions with some great memories!
LOL when I saw that. It would have been just like Monty to be in that spot too!
He is sorely missed.
ArneYoga lol
He did, indeed!
There will never, ever be a better dealmaker than Mr. Monty Hall, not even Wayne Brady.
Shoot, instead of Heaven he picked the Goat. Greatest of all time!
The lady in the green suit that won the zonk tricycle was a guest on today's episode (2/8/19) of the Let's Make a Deal Legacy Special.
Just learned about Monty Hall's passing on this evening. I had not viewed this pilot episode in a few years (and forgot Let's Make A Deal was first on NBC) and I just went back to a simpler time in life (childhood) when parents and grandparents were living. I am also enjoying seeing folks who like my parents/grandparents LOOKED like classy men and women by the way they dressed (I am quite Old School myself now in my late 50's age-wise). I realize the thought patterns about life back then are considered out-dated now but I am enjoying seeing and hearing it all. My brother (now also deceased) LOVED this show for the new cars featured as prizes. It was a treat to see the classic NBC Peacock prior to the show as well. Thanks for the trip back in time and R.I.P. Mr. Monty Hall ♥♥
13:54 - That 17" COLOR TV cost $899 in 1963. I was at CostCo today and saw a Sony 65" OLED TV for the same price. No inflation on TVs...that's for sure....
What a civil audience. Unlike today's TV programs, people back then had class!
And so well calm
He was a great host and a great mind, too. RIP, Monty.
This show was my favorite back in the early 70's, I was in grade school. This first episode is classy and good clean fun. Would be nice if we had some that now.
Really sad what society has come to now, people back then were so polite and respectful.
Very true.
Oh yeah, so respectful, what with all the sexism in the intro, and most of the audience being straight white women.
This is sarcasm.
@@jacksonhart5961 Haha! Sounds horrible, along with the violent crime rate being 40% of what it is today, 5% of children born to single mothers vs 40% today, a fertility rate of 3 in 1963 vs 1.8 today (well below the replacement rate of 2.1). Yeah, we are doing so much better today as a society!
Not only were they polite and respectful, they were very well dressed!
You sure got that right
Monty is still with us in 2016 at the age of 94 . . . and still married to his first wife since 1947!
He likely has outlived the vast majority of people in that audience.
Not anymore, Monty Hall passed away at the age of 96. RIP to TV's original big dealer and thanks for the memories.
RIP . . . and his wife Marilyn died in June.
MooPotPie My jaw dropped when I saw the news story about Monty's death.What a shock to me when I saw it.
@@entertainment150 About half the people that were alive when i was bon are dead and i was born 1976.
Wow! What a rare TV classic, the original 1963 pilot of "Let's Make a Deal"!!! So good to see everything still there, the original NBC Peacock, the opening and closing credits, etc., etc., etc., etc. Yup, they don't make TV like that anymore.
Laramie Peacock, that is. :p
They sure don't, Joey. Sad but true 😢
I hate it when people say they don't make everything good anymore. It ruins everything for me.
I miss the golden age of television, but just give me a big break. I'm not gonna trash everything new and I will not be forced into this crap by those lifeless, grown-a** nostalgically-blind hypocrites like you!
This is fun, watching the very first broadcast of "Let's Make A Deal," from 1963-hosted by the legendary and multi-talented Monty Hall. It is my understanding that-after the first two weeks in which the audience members dressed "conservatively"-one of the audience members dressed up in a creative, wacky costume to get Monty's attention. In a very short period of time-ALL the audience members were doing that! Funny and endlessly entertaining!
Monty Hall was one of the all time great MCs!
Bob Barker's "Truth or Consequences" was also taped in NBC Studio 1 in the early 1960s. Studio 1 later became the home of "The Tonight Show Staring Johnny Carson" from 1972 to 1992.
My gosh, Monty Hall was a gem! This, even in its infancy, was a GREAT show and he was the best of hosts of any show ever!
At 4:54, the 1963 Pontiac Tempest is sometimes confused with the 1964 Buick Slylark, because they both had positraction, and independent rear suspension
My cousin Vinny lol
Was this Tempest mint green? lol
@@christophergolas9930 I don’t think so, but the woman contestant’s outfit may have been.
This show is one of my favorites today
Class. This show still makes me smile after all these years. My mom watched this , as the world turns, and bonanza religiously !
It's not weird at all. It's just like the first few episodes of the New Price is Right (1972) without the wild cheering and clapping going on. It's the way the show originally began, and it is a treat to see how these shows really began.
I was almost 4 when this aired, we had a 15" diagonal BW TV with rabbit ears and 6 VHF channels abc, nbc, cbs, wortv, and eventually wpix. It had a separate tuner for UHF and a small circular antenna in the back for that. lol We got TWO UHF channels, channel 13 to become PBS and, LMFAO remembering, channel 41 that came in on 22 if you turned the set just right. In the late night when I should have been sleeping, I would listen to wrestling! From a station in Paterson NJ. I will remember till the day I die that announcers opening call, RINSIDE QURANTE UNO PATERSON NEW JERSEY! lol Sweet memory!
Monty Hall passed away today 9/30/2017... RIP I hope you make a great deal in heaven!
I had a great great great great great great grandson who was around 40 when this first aired.
R.I.P. Monty Hall ~ 1921 - 2017 :'-(
I appreciate all the people giving their condolences to the passing of Monty Hall.
NOTE: RIP Monty Hall
1921-2017
He died in his house in California.
in loving memory of monty hall 1921-2017
He had a pretty good run.
I feel so sad after Monty Hall passed away at Beverly Hills, California. This first episode has reminded me about Monty's accomplishments for many many years & a very very very long time. RIP Monty Hall 1921-2017
Don't feel bad. 96 is a pretty long life.
Sad news to report. The Legendary host and co-creator Monty Hall passed away today at age 96. R.I.P. to the original Big Dealer. You are a true legend.
Monty Hall will always be THE LMAD host. R.I.P. Monty.
It was a good idea that they added the audience costumes later, those really amped up the visual appeal and the energy of the crowd!
They didn't add that. People came up with that on their own so that Monty would notice them and pick them. The network actually wanted them to put a stop to it, Monty said no.
Wow! Monty has it nailed down tight right from the very beginning.
RIP Monty Hall. This was a great show
This was the pilot but watching Monty, it was as if he'd always been doing that show.
Boy, has the times changed
No kidding. People were more articulate and better dressed.
@@MCO18
People were more polite, not hung up on stupid things. Just real in general.
GSN will be rerunning this show Sunday as part of the tribute to Monty Hall. I hope they run the 1977 finale and the 1986 finale.
RIP Monty Hall, 96 yo, 9/30/2017.
Karen Williams RN wow 9/30 is my birthday
He was definitely America's greatest dealmaker!
Happy 95th birthday, Monty Hall.
He's dead dude,wake up!
@@josephmancuso9695 This comment was made when he was alive, wake up!
@@josephmancuso9695 you wake up check the year he said happy birthday you dumb
This is better than the modern version of lets make a deal.
Carrie Lestyk agree. I refuse to watch let's make a deal with Wayne Brady
Benjamin Wallace
Yeah, I don't care for it either. Brady doesn't exude charm and charisma that a game show host needs. He doesn't have showmanship either. His voice is pretty flat in that there's very little inflection in his speaking. Most of my TV watching anymore is reruns of vintage shows from the 50s, 60s and 70s.
Simple deals were so much better $500 or the curtain where carol merill was standing
Yes elegant. They are really polite and even shy. Wow in 1963 my mom was 14 years old. How things changed right? Times were better for a lot of reasons
Few people today know that before LMAD, Monty Hall was for one season the play-by-play voice of the New York Rangers of the then-six team NHL.
Monty Hall passed away today. at 96 years old R.I.P. The reason for the costumes is people wanted to get to play and hard to get picked so the next airing somebody wore an outlandish for the time non conforming outfit and Monty went right too them so the next episode more people wore weird looking clothes and that started the trend for lets make a deal. If not it would not have lasted.. Monty Hall said this on a game show tribute years ago. And check Monty Hall on the Odd Couple TV show a Riot when they play lets make a deal in their kitchen!
This is one of the first daytime programs to be televised in color.
Wow....real ladies and gentlemen. So different from today.
Looks like a Church Audience..... I am used to the insane people with toasters on their heads.... Still awesome to see the greatest Game Show and Game Show host so early on. Monty ROOLs 4ever.
The audience was definitely a lot more quiet and reserved in this era and episode.
Well as the legend goes someone from this clean cut audience one day brought a sign saying “Roses are red, violets are blue, I’m here to make a deal with you”. Of course Monty picked the lady.
Next thing you know, everyone is bringing in signs.
Then someone brought in a wacky hat.
Then everyone brought in wacky hats.
And as a result for the last 50 plus years tens of thousands of traders “dressed as they are”, come to make deals with the big dealer Wayne Brady, Monty Hall’s rightful heir.
Indeed, Monty and Stefan Hatos tested LMAD with church groups and many other gatherings of people. Everyone loved the concept.
Just by watching this pilot, you can see why this show was such a howling success!!! Obviously the network executives could tell immediately just from this sample demo show that this program had tremendous appeal, and would probably really catch on in America. Monty Hall had such charm, quick wit, and folksy showmanship that all of the great game hosts had. Wendell Niles was a legendary radio announcer-- especially with Bob Hope; and and had a relaxed grace and poise. Yes this show would evolve with the zany costumes and open up and get wilder with Jay Stewart, who was fantastic; but we have to remember that this was the original show, So, like all first runs, it was rather tame and polite. Still, there was more than enough here to show sponsors or execs to go with it, and that they had a potential winner on their hands!
Let's face it. Wendell Niles is *NO* Jay Stewart.
From what I heard, the head honchos at first were like, "Yeah, that was great! But what do you do the next day?"
A color TV set was a big deal in 1963 (no pun intended) as color programming did not become common until the 1965-66 TV season.
Right U are!
+Max Power $899 for a roundie color TV?!
+Robert Lopresti It was the Deauxville!
+Robert Lopresti--That price even shocked me, too. I was a little kid growing up at that time, and it was common knowledge that if someone had a color TV they had to have a lot of money. I was under the impression in the mid to late 60s that color sets were in the $500 to $600 range. Our family didn't get a color TV until 1973 when our old black and white 25" console bit the dust. I don't remember the cost of that new set, but it was less than $500. Ah, the memories!
Max Power RCA still owned NBC at the time, and a few of their shows (including Bonanza, of course) were in color.
I hope you're continuing Let's Make A Deal in Heaven, Mr. Hall!!
"You have your reincarnation as a Saudii prince, but I have another deal for you! You can give up that reincarnation for a chance at a key to heaven - you can choose between door 1, door 2, and door 3."
The tire tracks on this stage were made by a 1963 Pontiac Tempest.
Michael Lipinski my cousin Vinny!
These early shows were very sneaky, hard to predict, and clever! 👍👍👏👏
Old television game shows are the best !
Yes, I agree.
Thank you Monty for all of the fun!!! You were a great guy.
Could you imagine Wayne Brady coming into a studio with 39 anxious traders dressed in 1963-style clothing?
Um…no. Not then (for sadly obvious reasons) or now (for sadly obvious reasons).
@@jasonnstegallenough said, MLK jr and the X made it easier for us to check those who step out of line
Some of the greatest game shows started on NBC such as Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune and The Price is Right.
JFK was still alive and kickin' when this episode was taped. How innocent things were back then. sigh.....
first thing I thought!
wtf66611 But not for long (Lee Harvey Oswald would take care of that).
Funny, I was thinking the same thing - America was still very innocent
Gerry Cooney Yeah right. Fuck outta here with that conspiracy bullshit!!!
JFK was doin' a lot more than kickin', I guarantee!
Everyone makes fun of June Cleaver wearing pearls and dressing up. By the look of the women contestants that was how you dressed going out in 1963.
A different era in America. No wonder the hippies were such a shock in a few yrs.
+Anti thug Society These same people all dressed in pearls and skinny ties probably thought they were 100 yrs in the future and an alternate universe when the hippies showed up. America of 1963 and America of 1968-1970 were very different places. Something changed that is for sure.
+Anti thug Society The 60's began with Don Drapers in suits, greased hair and hats and ended with Woodstock. No other time period in history ever changed so quickly that is for certain. It is like when Kennedy died so did the 50's and the Beetles along with drugs and lots of sex filled that void. Most people very willingly jumped in. I was only 8 when Woodstock happened. We tried to recreate the 60's magic a decade later but it just was not the same.
+Anti thug Society You had what I guess would be called a hip happening mom. Very nice to have a time in music that means so much. My mom God rest her soul would put 10 lps on our huge record player Sat morning and they would drop one at a time and play all day. Our music was mostly white country. I ended up a rock fan instead. That phonograph looked like something Monty Hall would have given away. Guess it was what passed for modern electronics then.
June Cleaver (Barbara Billingsley) wore pearls to conceal a blemish that was prominent on camera.
But even then, people still dressed way better as a rule when the hippies first came and then through the '70s and early '80s. That really started to change in the '90s.
I happened to come by this video. I remember Monty Hall in an interview saying when the show started people came dressed in regular attire for the time. It quickly evolved into people coming dressed as crazily as they could. That stuck for this entire show's airing and subsequent versions of the show. "I'll give you $500 for a hairpin." ;)
My mother, was Maggie Guth, who was the very first "trader" on Let's Make a Deal. Only video of her in existence.
OH MY GOODNESS!! This was before the costumes!!!
Back when television was tender and mild. No talkshows bombarding the television no news propaganda
Everything new starts out tender and mild (so to speak), then as it grows, it turns into a greedy monster. Sad, but true.
happy 60th anniversary let's make a deal congratulations keep that milestone going
I was 3 years old in 1963.
Thanks for sharing this episode!
I remember my wife telling about this show when I came home from work. She watched this on an old 25 inch Zenith black and white television. Enjoyed watching this :-)
13:54 - That 17" COLOR TV cost $899 in 1963. I was at CostCo today and saw a Sony 65" OLED TV for the same price. No inflation on TVs...that's for sure....
A marvelous trip back SIXTY YEARS in the UA-cam time machine ! It's a miracle this wonderful COLOR tape exists. Was it from Monty Hall's private archive? Almost ALL daytime television pre-1980 has been lost, erased, taped-over or trashed. NBC destroyed most of their entire pre-1972 library, including Johnny Carson's Tonight Show. Network bean-counters felt the storage expense wasn't worth it !
Taped at Studio 1 at the NBC Studios in Burbank where the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson taped for 20 years. LMAD taped here from 1963-68 on NBC.
I was a contestant on Let Make a Deal got up for big deal picked door number 3 won a trip to Bahamas Caribbean and 700$ cash someone pls find this dressed like a Angel Monty picked the 3 of us first a cat a skier and the Angel me RIP MONTY HALL
Do you remember what month and year?
$700.00 in 1963 had the same buying power as $5,676.54 in 2018
@@dew2912
And the Bahamas were worth going to.
Next year will be the 60th anniversary of Let's Make a Deal. I'm hoping CBS will have a primetime special next season. I would love for the current version will bring back the Super Deal with a $100,000 prize plus the big deal.
This was taped in Studio One at NBC in Burbank. This is the same studio where Johnny Carson hosted the Tonight Show from 1972 to 1992.
Now we know the place as *The* *Burbank* *Studios* .

Seriously, though, a LOT of famous and popular shows, from game shows and variety shows to sitcoms, were filmed or taped there. That place should be called a historical landmark by now!
They should do the feather duster one again.
Dedicated to the memory of Monte Halparin (aka Monty Hall,1921-2017)
They took away the zonk, as a possibility, in the final Big Deal. This show has changed, a lot! Some better, some worse. I love it all! 😍❤
I wish they made flat screen TVs like that. I could so use what looks like a drawer
12:45. The other lady probably stood up and yelled “A raccoon???!!!!!!” and threw the coat on the floor.
Thanks for posting!
They show modesty in their actions
I wish I could look at all of the old episodes from when I was really little because my grandma was on the show it would have to be the early 70s
REST IN HEAVEN MONTY HALL
This show was always so fun. :)
They really had fun in those days !
So weird to see video tape, let alone in color from 1963! Great that they saved it. Most tapes from that era were reused or destroyed.
Fact. The "Peacock" voice over was done by Mel Brandt, one of the iconic NBC Staff Announers.
Up there right next to Don Pardo. They *both* are greatly missed.
Monty was such a smooth talker…
Watching the pilot, it felt like watching aliens from another planet! 😂🤣😉 An intelligent, respectful, and polite one, at that! 😎👍👏
R.I.P. Monty
Monty an all time great.
The $900 color TV at 13:20 is equivalent to $8,750 today (2022). That's a lot of money, especially since the color was lousy back then. Of course, in 1963 if you had a color TV, you were the envy of the neighborhood even if everyone you saw on the TV had green and purple skin.
I would have liked to have seen the commercials too.
Oh yeah, this was the episode where all the contestants dressed like there were at a early 60s cocktail party !
No wonder this show was a success ...on many levels, it pulls you in 😎🗣
Ah the good old days when you had a 19 inch TV, (a colour one if you were a pricey spender), 10 to 12 channels using rabbit ears or out door antenna, no remotes and you liked it cause that's how it was back then. I was 8 years old in '63
In 1963 UK you had to have a black and white TV (colour came in 1967 but only became popular in 1976) with 2 TV channels and one more coming next year in 625 line high definition!
Monty Hall passed away on the same day as my 50th birthday. Requiescat in pace, Monty!
fun to watch thanks for loading
When it was shown on GameShow marathon in 2005 (which led to it's eventual return in 2009) it became the only game show to air on all four networks.
James Klatt If you count Big Deal (Fox’s lame attempt at LMAD), yes.
Big deal
@jaysantos536 - YES. YES IT WAS.
I want those pink Westinghouse appliances!
In 2023, we will be celebrating the 60th anniversary of Let's Make A Deal
This is far funner than the current version of the show, both of them have their moments though. I like the newer one, but, this one really has a kicking charm to it.
Monty knew he was playing a friendly con man. Also the show was faster paced at 30 minutes. The show is slower today but it leverages Wayne’s improv chops very well.
It's weird to not see people in costumes or Tiffany as the model.. It's just so odd yet classic to see
So this was before the "These people dressed as they are" idea came up, right?
RIP Monty Hall
back then, Monty Hall looked similar to Alan Young (he was Wilbur Post in Mister Ed)
Punky Milligan .... im crushin!
What a Sweet young lady,Punky Milligan,was that the name? I hope the last 52 years have treated her well!I Its the Odometer Punky,,,the Odometer lol
