* [[All or Nothing]]: Miss a question and your entire team left empty-handed, except...
** [[Consolation Prize]]: If the player the Terminator chooses decides to challenge another teammate; they are given $10,000 right away and keep the money, even if they lose to the other player or the team as a whole loses later on.

* [[Unexpectedly Obscure Answer]]: Most, if not all, of the higher-level questions involved survey or poll results.
* [[Who Wants to Be Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?]]: One of the first (and most blatant) ''Millionaire'' imitations, FOX ads gleefully bragged that you could win '''two''' million on their show. Emphasis on could, as the questions became so obscure and the penalty for losing so merciless that attempting the two million dollar question was essentially the same as putting your current winnings in a big pile, soaking them in gasoline, and striking a match.
