The Life Lines

Ask The Audience - Everyone who is watching the game posts what they think the answer is and the contestant picks which one he wants (or if no one posts in 10 minutes, I will allow the the contest to use a 5 minute google search)
Phone A Friend - One bored member of the contestant's choice post's what he thinks the answer is.
50:50 - Same as Show
Switch The Question This life line becomes available after the 25,000 dollar question is answered correctly.

The Cash Prize Questions Ladder
$1,000,000
$500,000
$250,000
$100,000
$50,000
$25,000
$16,000
$8000
$4000
$2,000
$1000
$500
$300
$200
$100

obvious rules: Unless you use a life line all of the answers to these question must come from your own knowledge, we are on the honor system. Why would you want to cheat anyway, you don't win any money. Plus these questions are supposed to be hard there is no shame in getting just one wrong.

Nelly, looks like neither of us is correct so far.

slam · #7 Post by **slam** » Sat Oct 13, 2007 9:02 am

Since Live with Regis and Kelly is actually the same show as Live with Regis and Kathie Lee (name and cast change, though), it looks like PlacentiaSoccerMom had the first correct answer.

Shade · #8 Post by **Shade** » Sat Oct 13, 2007 9:07 am

D Jeopardy March 30, 1964

By the way, Millionaire actually initially aired in the UK in 1998.

I gotta disagree. I think Regis and Kelly started when Kelly was added in 2001. Even though the other shows had undergone cast changes, the show itself remained the same. Regis and Kathy or Regis and Kelly are the show. It would be like saying that Ebert and Roeper are the same as Siskel and Ebert.

Yup, it's the skin. I had it myself.
