USA Network has set its retail panel for the new, first-of-its-kind shoppable live competition series America’s Big Deal from inventor and entrepreneur Joy Mangano and hosted by Access Hollywood journalist Scott Evans. Several of America’s biggest retail giants, QVC and HSN, Lowe’s and Macy’s, will join forces to be a part of this series that has a mission “to lift up the nation’s greatest inventors and small businesses by inviting them to sell their products live on-air to home viewers through One Platform Commerce @ NBCU.”

Each week competitors will take the stage to pitch their product to America and the person with the highest dollar sales at the end of the show will win the chance to strike a life-changing deal with one of the three retail giants.
