Million Dollar Money Drop was an American game show that aired on Fox in the United States and Canada. It is based on the UK flagship series The Million Pound Drop Live (now The £100K Drop), but featured an entirely different game format and its show's set (blue as opposed to red, and a different music theme). The series is hosted by Kevin Pollak. The show premiered on December 20, 2010 and ended on February 1, 2011. On May 18, 2011, TVSeriesFinale.com reported that Fox had cancelled Million Dollar Money Drop and would not be producing a second season. Despite the cancellation, however, more than 15 different international versions of the program will continue to air in other countries; the original version continue to run until the last episode on August 23, 2019. Game format A team of two people with a pre-existing relationship was presented with US$1 million in $20 bills, banded in 50 bundles of $20,000 each. Teams are presented with seven general knowledge multiple-choice questions during the course of the game; the first three questions have four answers, while the next three questions have three answers, and a seventh and final question have two. The contestants choose one of two categories at the beginning of each round. Each answer option corresponds to a different trapdoor or "drop"; only one answer is correct. The contestants have a fixed amount of time to distribute all the money among the drops as they see fit; however, they were required to leave at least one drop "clear", meaning that no money may be allocated on at least one answer. Teams are required to place any remaining money bundles onto the drops, as bundles that are not placed on a drop when time runs out are forfeited. The timer may be stopped early by the teams if they are satisfied with their choice of answers. After the timer either runs out or is stopped, the drops for the incorrect answers are opened; any money placed on them falls down a chute and is removed from play by security guards beneath the stage, while any money placed on the correct answer is carried forward to the next question. This process is repeated until at any point where the team ran out of money and loses, or after the final question; if they were correct, they win any remaining money retained for its answer.
