Line 1: {{~~trope~~work}} ~~----~~ * [[Adored Byby the Network]]: [[American Broadcasting Company\|ABC]]'s version, so much so it caused a [[Hype Backlash]]. ** The [[Nine Network]]'s Australian version is a more reasonable instance; it's held the same 5:00pm weekdays timeslot for the past twelve years with no breaks. * [[Fan Nickname]]: The show's name is commonly shortened to ''Millionaire'', including '''on the show itself'''. Meredith rarely, if ever, says the show's full title anymore. ** "Llama" was a longtime fan term for any question gotten wrong in the first five questions ($100-$1,000 under the original money ladder). * [[The Pete Best]]: Averted. Meredith has hosted the show for 10 years versus only 3 for Regis, but a.) the show was at its most popular with Regis at the helm, and b.) both Meredith and Regis are known for more than just hosting ''Millionaire''. * [[Screwed Byby the Lawyers]]: The change to the Super Mix format seemed to be ringing of this, especially considering it followed the [https://web.archive.org/web/20120301033207/http://buzzerblog.flashgameshows.com/the-final-answer-for-millionaire/ victory by Celador International] (which created the show) over Disney to the tune of $270 Million regarding royalty fees. * [[Screwed Byby the Network]]: ABC's [[Wolverine Publicity\|over-milkage of the show]] eventually led to [[Deader Than Disco\|a drop in the show's popularity]] and subsequent cancellation. It still lives on in syndication, but hasn't been the same since. {{reflist}} [[Category:Who Wants Toto Be Aa Millionaire?]] [[Category:Trivia]]
