Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (American game show)
Updated: 12/11/2025, 2:36:54 PM Wikipedia source
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (colloquially referred to as simply Millionaire) is an American television game show based on the format of the same-titled British program created by David Briggs, Steven Knight and Mike Whitehill and developed in the United States by Michael Davies. The show features a quiz competition with contestants attempting to win a top prize of $1,000,000 by answering a series of multiple-choice questions, usually of increasing difficulty. The program has endured as one of the longest-running and most successful international variants in the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? franchise. The show has had numerous format and gameplay changes over its runtime and, since its debut, twelve contestants and three separate teams of two contestants (eighteen people combined, seven of which were celebrities) have answered all the questions correctly and won the top prize (two other contestants also won one million dollars in special editions of the show). As the first American network game show to offer a million-dollar top prize, the show made television history by becoming one of the highest-rated game shows in the history of American television. The American Millionaire won seven Daytime Emmy Awards, and TV Guide ranked it No. 6 in its 2013 list of the 60 greatest game shows of all time.
