GSN Presents a 'SUPER MILLIONAIRE' Labor Day Marathon

Excitement Hits an All-Time High as Contestants From Across the Country Endeavor to Win $10,000,000

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Aug. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- GSN is serving up a super-sized "WHO WANTS TO BE A SUPER MILLIONAIRE?" marathon on Monday, September 4 from 4:00 - 9:00 PM ET/PT. GSN will showcase five one-hour episodes of the "WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE" spin-off hosted by Regis Philbin.

The original "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" pits contestants against a ticking clock and 15-questions with three lifelines, 50:50, Ask the Audience, and Phone a Friend, to win $1 million. In the special SUPER MILLIONAIRE, contestants earn two additional lifelines after correctly answering the $100,000 question and the heart-pounding excitement intensifies as competitors get closer to a final question worth a staggering $10 million.

The two additional lifelines, "Three Wise Men," when Philbin consults a panel of three experts, and "Double Dip," which provides the contestant two chances to answer the question correctly, are exclusive lifelines for the SUPER MILLIONAIRE specials.
