Kapamilya, Deal or No Deal is the Philippine franchise of Deal or No Deal, last hosted by Luis Manzano and previously by Kris Aquino, which premiered on June 5, 2006, on ABS-CBN.

The smallest prize has always been ₱1, but the grand prize has always varied; the top prize at the show's last airing was 1,000,000. The game show's tagline is "Ang Kapalaran Mo, Desisyon Mo" which in turn translates in English as "Your Fate, Your Decision." At the time of its premiere, this was the first weekday primetime game show in the Philippines since the so-called primetime game show craze died down in late 2002, with Pilipinas, Game KNB?, the last remaining show among the weekday primetime game shows, reformatted into a daytime one after a relatively brief hiatus (although it had a primetime spinoff called Pasko Na, Game KNB? for three weeks in December 2005 to January 2006).

The first season of the show was supposed to be a three-month stint, to give way to another Endemol-produced program Pinoy Dream Academy, but its immense popularity caused the show to be extended to a nine-month-long season. The second season premiered in June 11, 2007, and was supposed to end in October of the same year. Once again, the show's success amongst viewers resulted in an extended season, a new time slot, and lead programming for TV Patrol; the season concluded in January 11, 2008 and was replaced by Wheel of Fortune.[1] After a six-month hiatus, the third season of the show premiered in July 28, 2008, replacing Wheel of Fortune, and became the first to also be broadcast on TFC's North American feed. The original series of the program ended on March 27, 2009 and was replaced by Pinoy Bingo Night.

After a nearly three-year hiatus, the show returned On February 25, 2012, replacing Junior MasterChef Pinoy Edition, with Luis Manzano as host.[2][3] Original presenter Kris Aquino further elaborated that she could not host the show as she was having earlier due to her upcoming commitments with Kris TV and taping conflicts with Kailangan Ko'y Ikaw.[4][5] Considered as a continuation of the original series, this fourth season lasted until September 28, 2013, and had noticeable changes in game play, and in scheduling, airing only on Saturdays, as opposed to weekdays like the previous three seasons.[6] The fifth season of the show premiered on February 9, 2015, replacing the second season of Bet on Your Baby, after numerous teasers hinting of the show's return, with further changes to game play (to be mentioned below).[7] On January 25, 2016, Kapamilya, Deal or No Deal become Barangay edition.[8] The fifth season (and the series as a whole) ended on March 5, 2016 and was replaced by Game ng Bayan.[9]
