Who Wants to Be a Millionaire | ABC | | Scheduled whenever there's room on ABC's schedule | | Host: | Regis Philbin |
The surprise hit of the season and perhaps the decade, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, inspired by a British gameshow, inspired a series of copycats on every other major network. Philbin's creation was a ratings bonanza for the network and a significant cost savings, as gameshows are infinitely cheaper to produce than dramas and sitcoms. At the same time, however, each new gameshow puts about 100 television writers out of work.
