That $500K question... arguably the gutsiest decision in Millionaire history.
@teleman07 Guiliani is a big name in America, so not too hard for an American to guess. The Life mag question def would be the hardest for anyone to guess. The 500k question could make you question yourself since Library of Congress and DoE sound probable since the phrase refers to knowledge setting you free and both of them are more academically related. CIA is a gut guess when the only tie it has is that the I stands for Intelligence
The moment when his friend gave him the wrong answer but he followed his gut and won 500k, was amazing!
The $500,000 question had me on the edge of my seat. He had guts and it paid off!
Went with his gut, tough decision but it definitely paid off, his friend must’ve felt really relieved (like Meredith said) that he didn’t go with his initial guess
Meredith's reaction after Kevin locked in his million dollar final answer was absolutely priceless. She was so genuinely happy to see him win the million! One of the reasons why I loved Meredith when she was on Millionaire.
Major professional
I cry *EVERY* time. 🥹🥹🥹
Kevin really clutched that 500,000 question. I’m glad he was able to pull the win, he’s probably in my top 3 fav winners!
What a precious, humble ending.
Super smart and very polite with a good sense of humor. What a guy.
Meredith is such a sweet heart. Such a warm lovely lady!
Meredith is such a sweetheart. She is so genuinely happy for him.
3:34 his Marlon Brando impression is spot on!
When he said "please let my mom know" I'm not crying, you are.
he is a time traveller from 1812
I never knew he called his mother after winning his million to thank her like that on national television. Gotta love this guy!
Very very humble man; a well deserving contestant
His beard covered in confetti and he still asks politely to ask her to let his mom know. That says it all....
On the TV series question, he's obviously in doubts because probably he doesn't got time to see much TV. He believes that the audience would know that one, who is actually a poor partner when a tough or more intellectual questions show up. He's able to manage very accurate questions and also knows how society works. Such a smart and super wise player. Hats off to this magical wizard !
She looks so genuinely happy that he won. I love it.
Something about seeing a humble persons life change in front of their eyes while they risk it at and could lose it all like Kevin did at the $500,000 question but getting it correct anyways alongside the tensity of the music and the crowd cheering gives goosebumps
I’ve never played chess before in my life, and many others haven’t either. What might seem easy to some would not be to others. Chris Tarrant on the UK version always used to say “they’re only easy if you know the answers”. It’s almost always better to use a lifeline if you’re in doubt than taking a blind guess, it could help you win a million dollars down the line.
One of the best and gorgeous host I have ever seen..
Meredith’s reaction to the CIA answer is everyone watching this video. She’s so great.
1st time i saw that episode as a kid i was so shocked and so excited that i almost pissed in my pants LOL
First one was a trick question, I often fired my mom's meatloaf as a projectile
I remember when this episode aired. I remember specifically his distinct look and the part where he won. Lol
He’s so cute! So happy he won the money for his family :)
FBI: Federal Bureau of Investigation
CIA: Central Intelligence "Agency"
Department of Education
Library of Congress
What "agency?" AGENCY!!!
I never thought about that until recently....
Sometimes the answer is within the question if you read thoroughly enough. But I think the FBI is classified as an agency as well. Not the other 2 though.
There's been a few times where the answer was there in the question even for big money.
Holy man i never would have thought that was cia
Great balls man
Central
Intelligence
Agency
Makes a lot of sense actually.
Kevin Smith was on the primetime version, but didn't make it out of the ring. The question he's referencing to is that Nectarine/Tangerine question that did Stan Wu in on the Tax-Free edition (Stan made it back for the $0 Winners Special but didn't make it out of the ring).
The host is actually older than him
What a lovely moderator. So genuine
He loves his mom and the rest of the family dearly.He is obviously a great son no doubt.Wishing him well.
they didn't skimp on confetti back in the day
I got emotional when he publicly thanked his mom at the end
I like how you can tell which answers are right or wrong by whether he nods or shakes his head.
And i wont have worry about socks for the rest of my life. That was iconic
Seeing this now all these years later, it seems obvious to me that the answer is CIA, but then I realized that the only reason why I know this is because of this episode lol
Look at the 14:26 mark when Meredith puts her hand on her forehead, she is shaking with excitement. You could tell she really wanted him to win.
Well, in the last question she looks like was trying to distract him to get the wrong answered...
@@funnykid7404 how?
@@ace-x6m if you replay the last question, he’s trying to get the right answer, but the host doesn’t Let him focus and doesn’t stop talking.
I think he knew it the whole time. If you watch when she is reading the question, he nods his head for A and then shakes it for answers B, C and D
@@funnykid7404The show is edited down. He was on the floor longer than we see here.
He's still not even a know it all, used all 3 lifelines. That was a ride.
He can afford a lot of "meat inspectors" with that money
Forget clerks and He-Man. This guy here the real Kevin Smith.
He didn’t come off like the type of guy who doesn’t know chess.
😂😂😂😂
Smart guy, he plays the chess of life that is million times harder to play and win ... :)
Awesome Episode
She is so hot
Cold actually, she stated her hands were freezing right before the final question
@@theredpanda3729 Thanks for the Trivia man!
@@aaron3929 Happy to help :)
Meredith is a gorgeous woman. Had a thing for her since I was little :)
He is speedrunning this and yet, he is waiting for her to finish. Unskippable cutscenes.
I think the most surprising thing here is that he was only 13 at the time
Thanks i thought he Was 9
Leapling?
Not someone i would have imagined to not be familiar with chess
He is the oldest looking 52 year old i have ever seen
That is very good
what a lovely seeming guy :,) i really love both of the syndicated era millionaires, nothing against the regis era ones at all, just that him and nancy both seem like such kind, wise, genuine people who have such a story to tell
also LMAO @ him slipping an acid reference onto daytime tv, what a legend
@17:21 I think that’s the first & only time that Meredith read a question again (I usually hear Chris Tarrant do that) 😜
Was this before or after he made the movie Clerks?
19:55 you can hear his sister sneaking onto the phone a friend on another phone in the house lol. She says “Whaatttt” incredulously.
I am amazed that he can't play chess
Good Show
Good Episode
Kevin Smith's Win
Meredith is so pretty lady 😍 !
10:26 LOL
I'm surprised he needed a lifeline for the chess question.
10/10
How do I put subtitles in Portuguese?
See good guys do win big
Im fascinated to know if she ever sent him the crate of socks!
This Dr Zayis is a genius
"Are your hands a little cold?" *holds hands* after winning half a mil ..... this guy is a fucking savage
His Show is like Real life in start easy
Mifdleu struggle
In end you know all
:-)
He's the first million dollar winner for syndicated game show Who Wants To Be A Millionaire
He obviously made the same choice that the first Primetime Millionaire did when winning the million!
Wow and my point is the best beautiful book cover "Super Matthew Aryan Tamimi's Masterpiece Artist Portraits And Movie Film Production Super Matthew Aryan Tamimi Saves Christmas" and of course the characters will be on front cover and pages too
Who wants to be a million... years old?
8:49 is where we all agree that he deserved to win
H-he had to use 50/50 on the chess question??
I know right?? A 5 year old boy could answer that LOL!
@@PrinceKassad95 I haven’t played chess since I was about 7. I couldn’t remember either.
@@PrinceKassad95 if you played chess that is
Does it matter? He won a million dollars, you can’t win any more than that on the game.
I still think he was trolling there
What does syndicated version mean?
This was the version that was syndicated in the Afternoon to any network around America, the way Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy are. The Regis version was exclusive to ABC and aired in primetime.
The first syndication Millionaire occurred 6mos. after it debuted? huh.
He's won ONE MILLION DOLLARS CONGRATULATIONS KEVIN 💵 💰🤑💸💲💶💵💰🤑💸💲💶💵💰🤑 🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊
All these criticisms from posters who have never won a million dollars on a game show. Classic internet right there.
I wonder if she made good on the promise to buy him lots of socks.

*MEREDITH VIEIRA: One million.* 😅
*RYDER, KORY CHAR: YEAAAAAAAH!!!* 😄👏
That was a Bad friend that he called ! 80%?!?!?!
He almost lost the million before he got it when he started talking about LSD lmao nobody needed the verbal confirmation everyone knows u do that hun
I think he 50:50’d the Chess question just to give himself a bigger challenge later on lol
Right? What a weird question to 50:50 lol.
What does it mean that this version is "syndicated"?
Syndicated means it does not air on one specific network; in a local television market one station can buy the rights to air the program. Jeopardy! is arguably the most well-known syndicated game show of all-time, even if it has returned to ABC more recently. Kelly Clarkson's talk show is another example of syndicated programming. Shows like Seinfeld, Friends, Big Bang Theory, etc. were successful enough to go into syndication for their reruns
@@alexdostaler thanks
@@alexdostalerI believe it's a US only television format. Maybe Canada too.
There are regionalised versions of BBC and such but they are still under the BBC.

Surprised they didn't put him in an asylum
Did they do phone a friend twice?
The second time, he's won the million already. It's just a phone call.
@@occono3543 Oh.
