|Contestants answer trivia questions of increasing difficulty to win cash prizes up to $1 million, and they can use three "lifelines" at any time, once per game each, to assist them in their endeavors. Adapted from the British [[game show]] of the same name, this series unashamedly rewards people based on knowledge rather than based on who has the most obnoxious game show persona. The hour-long original ABC version in the U.S. ran from 1999 to 2002, followed by a half-hour version, which debuted in first-run syndication in 2002 and is still airing.

|An anthology showcase series for the works of famed businessman and animator [[Walt Disney]], as well as being directly hosted by the man himself, it was the first of its kind and arguably the most successful version of its kind. It is also the second-longest running primetime show, behind the ''Hallmark Hall of Fame''. It showed various Disney films and even showed some new stuff from the then-recently released Disneyland, including episodes like The Liberty Story, an anthology episode composed of the live action and animated Greatest Conservative Movies ''Johnny Tremain'' and ''Ben and Me'', both of which dealt with the founding of the country. Even when liberal Michael Eisner took over Disney, he largely kept the conservative elements of the show intact. It was ultimately cancelled on December 24, 2008 due largely to Disney having expanded its influence to other channels outside ABC, including the Disney Channel. Coincidentally, it both began and ended on a Wednesday.
