The Rich List (New Zealand game show)

The Rich List is a TV ONE New Zealand television game show, which debuted on 23 June 2007 and screens at 8:30PM. The show is hosted by Jason Gunn and is produced by Imagination Television. A second season has screened and a third season screened in November 2008.

How the game works

Two teams containing two players, who are unknown to each other, play from inside sound proof pods. Then they can discuss and deliberate over answers and tactics with their team mate, without their opponents hearing what their game strategy may be, or how many answers they actually know.

The two teams bid upwards against each other while predicting how many examples of a particular subject they will be able to list. If a team fails to list as many answers as they predicted, the other team wins the round.

The winners of the best of three lists move on to play The Rich List, a new game of list-making where increasing amounts of money are up for grabs, like this:

However a wrong answer at any stage means all money for that rich-list is lost.

Rich List – Jede Antwort zählt ("Rich List - Every Answer Counts") was the German version of the U.S. game show The Rich List which in turn was based on the British game show Who Dares Wins running on Sat.1, that premiered on May 26, 2007 at 7:15 pm. The show is very successful, because of this, Sat.1 renewed the show for a second season, which airs subsequent to season one. On August 29, 2007 the show was to move to the prime time slot of Wednesdays at 8:15 pm. The show is hosted by Kai Pflaume. This is the first non-English-language version of the show to air.

Main Game

Two teams of two players each competed. The teams were placed in separate soundproof isolation booths, with audio that could be turned on or off by the host, much like the Twenty-One game show. He would announce the category for the list, such as "Tom Cruise Movies" or "Top 50 Broadway Shows of All Time," and the teams would take turns bidding on how many they think they could name.
