Ike actually made game show history with this win. He was the first person to win a million on two different shows. Even Ken Jennings, despite all his Jeopardy winnings, never did it on a second show, though he did come really close.

Well, there's been a 3-year drought of Millionaire episodes, and before David Chang won, there had been an 11-year drought of anyone winning the million, or if you really want to be picky, a 17-year drought of someone who won the million by answering all 15 questions correctly.
This was better than when the chef won the million because with the confetti falling and an audience felt like a REAL celebration! Ike can add Millionaire champion to his life achievements next to Jeopardy champion. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
3:57 To answer Jimmy's question, the reason "Ask the Host" exists is because when the UK brought back their version of the show, Jeremy Clarkson was chosen to be the host... & he's not very bright. I doubt the producers of this US knew that when they implemented it into this version, but it's interesting nonetheless given how many times people hilariously tried to get the answer from Regis during his version... Sure as heck beats "Jump the Question" as a lifeline though.
Jimmy actually was on this show as a contestant and did well it was introduced because when the Jimmy Kimmel version came out it was middle of Covid so no audience and it’s for charity so it’s something they kept
In Germany there is no such thing as "ask the host". Here you can ask the audience again but only people who really feel they know the answer stand up and then you can choose one of them.
@kakathi4776 I believe Germany had rules once before where you could play the standard way with 3 lifelines or "risk" where you would get an extra lifeline but you don't get the safety net after the 10th question. So if you missed a question you'd fall back down to 1,000.
@@brandonbennett8368Jimmy may have had some influence having been the co-host on Win Ben Stein's money for a few years. I would think he absorbed some of that trivia.
I believe the total is $2,135,000: $1 million here, $1 million for celebrity jeopardy, $125,000 on a previous appearance on wwtbam and $10,000 for reaching the 2nd round of the jeopardy T of C.
@@nashvillan4lifThat's right. Drew Carey gave away 2 different million dollars. The first $1 million is from "Power Of 10" (Top prize was $10 million), the other was from "The Price Is Right's Million Dollar Spectacular" (before it became "The Price Is Right At Night")
First time a million winner on WWTBAM US version has been celebrated with a full studio audience in 15 years but why didn't the million win cue have the organ ending part? That's my favorite part of the million win cue.
It's because the editors rushed too fast to the credits. After a random team finished the game, the outro cue started to play. That's why the million-dollar cue was shortened. The same thing happened in Ukraine in 2021 when Oleg Moroz won the game and a million Ukrainian hryvnia.
@@AdamJ617 The 2021 season had a big drop in ratings from the 2020 season (I didn't know this, but the 2020 season was actually a hit, the 2021 season apparently dropped in HALF by ratings), I saw someone claim it's because they added essential worker civilians, and I just can't buy that. They weren't the brightest TV stars admittedly, as they're just nice people who did essential work during COVID, so, it did kind of have a feelgood giveaway vibe which maybe hurt it a bit. But really I think in 2021 people just wanted to watch less TV than 2020.
I literally got this as well ... the African antelope is zo, the Arabic letter is zain, a vessel for holy water just didn't sound plausible for such a short word, whereas zax sounded sort of like an old English word for knife. So by a simple process of elimination, I was 60-70% sure it was D.

I learned a long time ago, the “Ask the Audience” lifeline is the Weakest of all the lifelines, especially for a Million Dollar Question. That’s why it should always be used first, and the “Ask the Host” or “Phone a Friend” second. Always save the “50/50” as your last lifeline, because it’s the strongest of the 4 lifelines. Still, the “Double Dip” was pretty useful at times, and would’ve made things a lot easier for contestants.
It used to be better. Regis's New York audience seemed smarter. They hired a bunch of shallow cheering people for the audience for this season I think, instead of having people apply for free tickets. They're all idiots.
This is the first million-dollar winner with an audience present since ... Wow... Probably sometime in about 2013 or so if not earlier. I wish regis was here to see this
The last millionaire with an audience present was Sam Murray during season 8 of the syndicated version of WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE. He won it in THE MILLION DOLLAR TOURNAMENT OF 10.
The closeups embody some of the iconic tension the show used to have before it went full-on comedy hour. Wish the producers remembered the recipe of the original formula like we see play out here on accident, before they let it be a parody of itself like it is most times now (Jimmy regularly mocking the lighting, etc).
I was thinking Tool for cutting roofing slates, but man.....I was still somewhat divided between A and D. So happy they won, what an awesome moment!🎉🎉🎉
Ken Basin's experience is the reason why you should never Ask the Audience on the million dollar question, but I hope they bring him back for the grand finale of the 30th anniversary celebration in 2029; too bad Regis Philbin won't be alive anymore, as by that point, Regis will have been dead for 9 years.
You know what I realized, Jimmy Kimmel never got to see the Million Dollar question back when he was a contestant, Never mind guess for it; (he walked away with 125k) Well over 20 years later, The Million Dollar question came and he had the Million question answer; Well done gentleman, You earned every cent of that $1,000,000 no question
dawg, regis just said if they won. it took like, what, 10 seconds max? love regis but jimmy definitely adds a little more suspense, especially with the computer prompt.
Look back at a Deal or No Deal MadTV sketch of Ike Barinholtz playing a character named Jerry who ultimately didn't win 1 million dollars and won just 5 dollars. He then tries to take the $1 million dollar case from the model and then gets tased in the nuts by a parody Howie Mandel.
This season felt like it was a last minute event, just arranging it for charity celebrity specials seems like it was easier. ABC had an original game show for civilians called Lucky 13 they were hyping up instead but it was lame and flopped hard.
to a question that was actually answered yeah. i think the first us million dollar question (michael shutterly, 1999) was jethro tull, which was d (don’t know for sure, but still).
