The $64,000 Question (1955–1958) watch online

The $64,000 Question is an American game show broadcast in primetime on CBS from 1955 to 1958, which became embroiled in the 1950s quiz show scandals. Contestants answered general knowledge questions, earning money which doubled as the questions became more difficult. The final question had a top prize of $64,000 (equivalent to $770,000 in 2025), hence the "$64,000 Question" in the show's title.

The $64,000 Challenge (1956–1958) was its spin-off show, where contestants played against winners of at least $8,000 on The $64,000 Question.

The show was initially produced by Louis G. Cowan, Inc., who soon changed its name to Entertainment Productions in 1956 before the show ended. Cowan bought out the rights from Milton Biow, so just to develop the series.
