Yea I thought that show was just in syndication for like the last couple of years.
The President
It is.

I passed the test, had my first interview, and then I was lead through the ABC building to do a video interview. I think I have a good chance because I think I was one of the few people in college who passed (and they were looking for them.)

If you get on the show, you should make sure that you tell the person you're going to call that they'll be your lifeline, and have them sit at the computer and google the answers to the questions, then when they call they'll know the right answer for sure. A winning strategy.
MAX
isn't there only 30 seconds?
Feern
If you're on it make sure you say 404 Daily on tv.

Maybe he's seen every episode and remembers what happens in them and stuff.

For the phone call, yeah. but they give you like forever before you have to answer or use a lifeline. Good for suspense, good for ratings.

Pretty sure the phone-a-friend is in a room that ABC keeps them in to prevent shit like that. I think you have to register whoever you want to be that lifeline anyways, cuz they always used to just be like "Oh, I'll call Jeff" and then it just dials. And Jeff is always just like "oh, wassup" like it's no big deal to be on a big tv show.

I don't think the phone-a-friend is in a room. One time I was bored as fuck so I watched about 5 minutes of an episode. One girl phoned-a-friend and said "GOOGLE IT!" and the friend did and she got it right.
Frankie G
yeah. The thing with phone a friend is I think you only have 30 seconds. It isn't broadcast live is it? I think it's just taped in front of an audience, then broadcast. The phone a friend wouldnt know the question til you say it.

Yeah because I'm sure the person going on Who Wants to be a Millionaire didn't previously inform his smartest friend about it.
The President
You give a list of people on who you would want to call, and they call all of them before hand so they know to wait by their phone.
