This is the Tuesday 18 May 2004 broadcast of Super Millionaire, with adverts inserted. This aired on local Oklahoma City TV on the aforementioned date at 9:00 PM.
Imagine having this and the new safety net rule. If this was me, I'd set it at $30k or $50k because i know those questions later on are insanely hard to answer. But there will be some ballsy people that will set it at $500k or even $1 million.
Another reason I knew Caulrophobia is the fear of clowns is because I remember playing Pokemon Platinum, once you beat the clown in the Pokemon Center, he tells you caulrophobia is the fear of clowns. If Ryan McMahon would of used Double Dip, he would guess Needles then probably clowns
They should bring this show back letting James Holzhauer, Matt Amodio, and well-known Jeopardy contestants play for the $10 million on Super Millionaire.
Just absolutely no idea why you wouldn't use your Double Dip when there's 5x the prize money for answering the question right and nothing to lose if you get it wrong! Completely imbecilic.
Yeah it's worth it, safe spot question, and yeah you don't know....but safe spot! 1 in 2 odds! Eejit! I know he did guess (one person in the uk walked AT the safe spot to the audience's groans!)) but, ehhhhhh. If you don't know this, just try everything, you ain't getting the million.
Since he didn't know, I agree with you to use the Double Dip afterwards. If he struggled with that first of the last five, he ain't making it on the second question so might as well go all out lol😅
I really like the spin off, but sadly contestants didn’t get very far. No one made it to the next dimension without burning all three original lifelines, and only one contestant saw a question worth more than a million. If there were people going deep it would of spark more interest, but since the game was becoming predictable it was hard to watch so the network decided they tried oatuck with regular millionaire.
Super Millionaire’s cancellation had nothing to do w the show’s ratings, believe it or not. Blame the wild success of Lost, Desperate Housewives, and Grey’s Anatomy for the end of Super Millionaire.
Well the questions were as tough as when Meredith hosted syndicated millionaire which is probably why that at best players would use all 3 normal lifelines before reaching the 2nd safe heaven and the additional lifelines(double dip and 3 wise men)
No one even won more than $1,000,000. The questions were much more obscure than even the regular show. I mean obviously they have to make it harder or else they’d go bankrupt if they had to pay out millions to different contestants
I can’t imagine being at 2,500,000 and risking 2,400,000 to win 5,000,000. Or even risking 4,900,000 to win 10,000,000. Safe haven should have been a bit higher
@@JJ_97x That would take BALLS OF STEEL... immense courage... and _so much trivia knowledge._ Oh, and I'm not sure that *Super Millionaire* could be reliably revived. Who would agree to lend a whole *$10,000,000 jackpot* just for this historic moment _that may never happen?_
Interestingly enough this was during a time in which it was possible to use the 50/50 and use the double dip at the same time... I don't believe a contestant ever actually did it but it was possible
Man, I remember how TV sure sucked back then. I forgot how brainless TV got after reality TV like American Idol and The Bachelor became staples of the airwaves. The overwhelmingly loud crowd noise to tell you how to react, as if you can’t react for yourself. 11:08 comes to mind. It’s like Jerry Springer’s game show. People like the guy at 45:20 that is way overacting as if he didn’t win the millions they’d pick him up as a crazy guy talent. The shallowness really began to show here around this time or a couple years before imo. Compare this to the 90s and pre-9/11 millionaire that focused more on the contestant playing than reactions and other bullshit.
