Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? (Philippine game show)

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? (also known as WW2BAM) is a Filipino game show based on the original British format of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. The main goal of the game is to win 2 million Philippine pesos (earlier 1 million) by answering 13 multiple-choice questions correctly, making the contestants eager and excited as the questions eventually reach higher levels of difficulty. There are five lifelines: 50:50 (fifty-fifty) wherein two wrong answers are eliminated from the choices, People Speak, Ask the Audience which the audience key in their answers, Phone-A-Friend option and Double Dip.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? was broadcast from 2000 to 2002 on the government-sequestered Intercontinental Broadcasting Corporation, produced by Viva Television, and was hosted by actor Christopher de Leon and returned on IBC in July 17, 2010, it is currently hosted by action star Cesar Montano and previously hosted by Christopher de Leon from 2000 to 2002; and the second incarnation hosted by Drew Arellano from 2010 to 2016. On May 23, 2009, it returned under a new home over TV5, with actor-host-comedian Vic Sotto as the new host.

The show's season finale last October 7, 2012 to give way give way to another game show hosted by Sotto, Million Peso Money Drop (the Philippine version of Million Dollar Money Drop created by Endemol).

However, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, will return on air on TV5 by September 2013 for a new season together with Pinoy Explorer and Wow Mali! Pa Rin in exchange to the now defunct talent show Talentadong Pinoy while the show continue to air on IBC every weekends. This incarnation ended on January 11, 2015 in preparation for the launching of Move It: The Clash of the Streetdancers on January 25, 2015. The show returned on May 10, 2015 at 7pm, replacing Move It: The Clash of the Streetdancers which held its Grand Finals before the launch of the new incarnation.

The show currently broadcast on IBC's Primetime ng Bayan evening block and worldwide via IBC's subscription-based international brand Global IBC, it airs from Monday to Friday at 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. (PST) after the network's flagship national evening newscast, Express Balita.

Currently, it is one of the highest rating programs of IBC and one of the longest-running game shows in the country that blazed a trail in Philippine television since its inception on November 20, 2000. The show is a top-rater in its time slot and it started the era of game show in the Philippines.

Gameplay
Originally, the contestants must first play a preliminary round, called "Fastest Finger First", where they are all given a question and four answers from the host and are asked to put those four answers into a particular order. The contestant who does so correctly and in the fastest time goes on to sit in a chair in the center of the set, known as the "Hot Seat," and play for the prize.

Once in the Hot Seat, the contestant is asked increasingly difficult general knowledge questions by the host. Questions are multiple choice: four possible answers are given (labeled A, B, C, and D), and the contestant must choose the correct one. Upon answering a question correctly, the contestant wins a certain amount of money. After questions, the host will ask the contestant "is that your final answer?" When a contestant says "final" in conjunction with one of the answers, it is official, and cannot be changed.

For the first few questions, there is a possibility for the contestant to leave with no money if they fail to reach the guaranteed amounts.

IBC Version
The first version of the show was hosted by actor Christopher de Leon. The first season of the original Millionaire, which began on November 13, 2000, had its 15th question prize of P1,000,000. In 2001, the final question's prize was doubled to P2,000,000.

In November 13, 2000, it airs every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 8 to 9 p.m. On July 7, 2001, it extended on Saturday from 8 to 9 p.m. when the timeslot moves to 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday as of July 9, 2001. It means that the game show has attracted a wide viewership.

The show lost its popularity soon after its original studio in Parañaque City (Viva Television Studio, the same one used by the Philippine version of The Weakest Link) was destroyed by a fire, and after the show moved to Riverbanks Center in Marikina City. The last original episode was aired December 14, 2002.

No one has ever won the game by way of answering all fifteen questions correctly in this incarnation. There have been two contestants who went the closest: DLSU professor Amelita Lopez-Forbes and actress Sharon Cuneta, who each answered 14 questions correctly and won a million pesos in separate instances in 2001.

On July 2010, after an almost 10-year hiatus, IBC announced to comeback of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? with Drew Arellano relaunch on July 17, 2010. The show aired at the IBC studio in Broadcast City, Capitol Hills, Diliman, Quezon City. Drew's hosting for Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? marks his homecoming of sorts to IBC, where he bannered the daily throwback show, Retro TV. A promo is being sponsored by the network in connection to comeback acquired license of the international version of the game show.

On November 13, 2010, the show was celebrated on its 10th anniversary of the game show since 2000.
