Regis is a very good host. He has a lovely voice.

[@Frankie-O]

Meredith Vieira is a lovely host with having such a lovely voice.

[@rogerscottcathey]

Regis practically tells her the St. Lawrence is the answer.

[@zeaferjones1404]

I had to laugh at that!!!! He also tried to help her with the one she asked the audience by making her say it in a sentence because only one sounds right in a sentence.

[@jimduggan8962]

@@zeaferjones1404 They basically always give the first answers up to $1k as freebies. He actually threw her off by saying "final answer?" which he doesn't normally do on those early questions and she knew that. That's why she ended up using the lifeline. But once you show uncertainty of the answer then he has to ask, at least thats how it seems. It was basically a freebie question that she completely overthought.

[@occono3543]

@@jimduggan8962 It's a $4000 question for St Lawrence though.

[@terminat1]

You wonder if he would have done the same for a guy.

⁠Yea, especially for one who was going for 2million)😂😂😂

[@Amanda-py8ff]

Regis was a good man. He really tries to help everybody on here.

[@Frankie-O]

Regis Philbin was a good man; Meredith Vieira plus Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb are lovely ladies.

[@Greg400]

I agree. Him walking through some of the questions with the kid Dana (who was obviously very nervous) to ease her nerves shows he had a lot character.

[@terminat1]

Love Regis. A true professional

[@entvids1]

So many memories watching this with my family. Has the millennium really come and gone that fast??

[@Reddragon-hn6ot]

Great job man! Please upload more

[@zackq8865]

Watching this episode again makes me enjoy it that much more without going back in time. Dana's mannerism, speech and vocabulary is definitely what most people use now. Apparently from 2000 onward the people are very much the same and feels like nothing has passed. Don't expect anyone to say the word "bale" in the 70's or 80's.

[@beatlesfan464]

How are you getting all these old episodes? Loving it!

[@TheUltimateRare]

who cares really? WE should just enjoy that these exist :)

LOL are you serious? Who the hell still watches that?

[@GamingFanactic911]

@@crohunter100 yes 100%. I still watch it and as a matter of fact, I re-watch Seasons constantly and sometimes I will do like 8 seasons in one week which is about 100 hrs

Thanks WWTBAMclassics. One thing I want to ask you, did you have any luck attempting to pick up the 7/16/00 (Chuck Durnberger's game) or the 8/17/00 (Nick Meyer's game) episodes yet? If not that's okay, I was just curious.

[@WWTBAMclassics]

Haven't been able to find either one. The 8/17/00 show is one I'd love to see, though.

[@elijahmoses5675]

Me too.

[@joeyragsdale1998]

@@WWTBAMclassics hey dude, just to remind you that on December 30 is Meredith's birthday and it's tomorrow. So you wouldn't mind uploading a Meredith episode for her birthday tomorrow?

[@dakotareeves3939]

Here's a March 2, 2001 episode of the U.S. Millionaire program on ABC and the top prize is at $2,010,000.

[@StandardToaster0]

I feel like he mansplained Dana a bit. A lot of people get out way earlier than $8000

[@jimduggan8962]

Not sure what you mean? You see a lot of people walk away with $2k and $4k? I'm not sure I've ever seen that.

[@occono3543]

@@jimduggan8962 Yeah it's rare just because it's rare anybody would need just a few thousand so badly they wouldn't risk it. Even the times when someone unemployed, broke and in debt got on, they rarely ever quit before reaching 16k.

[@tarantala111]

Gawd, life line for 200 dollars! She's not going to last long.

[@ramibaghdadi1255]

100 percent guaranteed the 50 50 would leave Poitier and Hattie McDaniel. It will always leave the "best" wrong answer.

[@acriser15]

dana was a hottie!!!

[@RealJackHQ]

I felt bad for Dana. I had no idea on the $200, $8,000, or $16,000 questions either. But I did have tadpole and St. Lawrence right.

[@jimduggan8962]

The $200 one wasn't difficult but she had a lot of difficult questions all the way through. I really didn't know any of them.

[@rajeshrivankar6949]

The beautiful girl didn't realise that Regis is going to help her till 32000/ alas,her psychology study couldn't hold her till then....

[@Computerman859]

I played Trivial Pursuit as a board game (more recently) and watching the TV show which was only in the 2008-2009 season on local/syndicated TV and hosted by former Brady Bunch cast member Christopher Knight.

[@uww-]

“is that a man or a woman?” if this was shot in 2022, regis would have been cancelled into oblivion right then and there..🙃

[@jordanwelch6972]

RIGHT?!?!? I was just thinking that

[@e-money5085]

Lol none of the above

[@ColTingle72]

Sometimes I wonder how some qualify to get on the show.

[@markymark443]

1:29 it should have been Ed Toutant (rest in peace), as he was given a flawed $16k question. He was later brought back to restart from the $16k level and ended up winning his would-be top prize of $1.86 million. SPOILER FOR LATER IN THE SEASON: This erroneous question cost them an extra $1.18 million for the $2.18 million that Kevin Olmstead would end up winning. Had they given Ed the chance to finish his run sooner, they'd not have had to pay a second jackpot above $1 million.

[@andimuhammadrifkialqadri4001]

I hope soon you'll upload the $1,010,000 episode (when the top prize was raised for the first time)...

[@blozier2006]

No such thing. The first episode with the "raised" prize was $1,710,000.

[@andimuhammadrifkialqadri4001]

@@blozier2006 but they said they added the top prize by $10,000 every night. So, it makes sense to have a $1,010,000 episode...

@@andimuhammadrifkialqadri4001 but they also said on the first episode with the bonus, that it was retroactive to the last winner, which at that time was 71 shows ago, thus $1,710,000.

Remember, Dana is a psychology student. She was using what she learned to manipulate Regis into telling her the right answers for each question.

[@dustin6528]

All she’d have to do is wink at me and I’d tell her.

[@viktorvasilik5477]

Why did he ask her if the 300 question was her final answer? Put doubt in her and she was forced to use a lifeline. Horrible

[@toknowthetruth2605]

They gave her some real tough questions..

[@koshka02]

Surprised she walked on the $16,000 question. I knew it was Bedouin right away. Lawrence of Arabia is a classic that everyone should see, and that term was mentioned many times in that movie. But I guess its not a term used that much anymore.

[@jimduggan8962]

Her mistake was overthinking the early question and asking the audience on it but the questions she had were all pretty tough. I wish she would've gambled instead of walking away but she probably would've got it wrong.
