Interesting that CBS O&O KNXT would pick up "It's Your Bet," which was produced for the NBC O&O's. KNBC must have passed on it.  It was always on at 1pm on WNBC from 69 to 73, when it was supplanted by Narz Concentration.
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

Ahh, yes...Monday, September 4, 1972. The Labor Day which gave the Columbia Broadcasting System a gigantic breath of fresh air.
