Title: Let's Make a Deal 1997
Post by: Jamey Greek on April 19, 2014, 01:32:04 PM

There was a supposed Family Channel version of LMAD that never came to be.  Was Marc Summers supposed to host?

LMAD was literally part of a one sentence mention. The overlying point of the article was that the Family Channel was trotting out new programming options. Nothing specacular.

That being said, this is the first I'd heard about that proposed LMAD revival. I know one was proposed for syndication a coupe years later, but not enough markets got on board.

This is literally the only sentence applicable: "Family's new lineup for fall include…a new version of game show Let's Make a Deal."
