Millionaire

[NJGIRL]

I have been watching Millionaire since it first came on at night. I saw the first person who won it with Regis. I now watch it during the day when I'm home for lunch. I don't see it everyday or even a whole show somedays.

My question is has anyone else ever won the million dollars??? I haven't seen anyone else win or even ever heard of anyone else winning.:(

Here is what I found on Wikipedia.
Million Dollar Winners on ABC

* John Carpenter, November 19, 1999
* Dan Blonsky, January 18, 2000
* Joe Trela, March 23, 2000
* Bob House, June 13, 2000

[edit] Million Dollar Winners in Syndication

* Kevin Smith, February 18, 2003
* Nancy Christy (First woman, to date, to win the million dollars in syndication), May 8, 2003

To date, no contestant on either the ABC or syndicated versions of the show has ever answered the million dollar question incorrectly. On the ABC version, they would have lost $468,000; on the current syndicated version, they would lose $475,000 (the monetary value of question 10 was reduced from $32,000 to $25,000). The most money ever lost on the show was $218,000 (in the prime time version), when contestants answered their $500,000 question incorrectly, lowering their prize from $250,000 to just $32,000 (see list of contestants who missed their $500,000 question below). In the syndicated version, the most would be $225,000 (thus lowering their prize to $25,000).

To this date, there has NOT been a millionaire since Nancy Christy won in 2003.
