This was a treat. We have 16-year-old Tuesday Weld and 59-year-old Agnes Moorehead, both Oscar nominees. Marvin Miller (46 years old here) really had a handle on the "Michael Anthony" character but his acting/narration career spanned four decades, working right up to his death in 1985 at 72 years of age. His early on-screen work in movies were mostly dark, malevolent characters. Thanks for posting this!

Nice to revisit a time when values were not mocked and were instead taught in stories. Even the commercial for the Singer-Slantomatic was watchable.

This was a very popular show during its' entire run, and odd its' last season was in 1960 when still a very popular television show with a very devoted audience.

Marvin Miller who played the part of Michael Anthony in this series was a well noted announcer of many radio programs prior to the days of television. He had one of those golden voices that worked well on vintage radio shows and he didn't do badly in television either, although in smaller roles such as the one of Michael Anthony in "The Millionaire"..

This is one of the few times I ever recall "our next millionaire" inviting Michael Anthony in, maybe the only time. Seems somebody could have asked him if he'd like a cup of coffee while they went over the details surrounding the signing of the check.

I believe this series was inspired by the great feature film “If I Had a Million” which featured several segments of diverse million-dollar-recipients and a fantastic cast including Gary Cooper, Charles Laughton, W. C. Fields, Allison Skipworth, Charlie Ruggles, Mary Boland, May Robson and others. It’s a real treat!

@@bobthetvfan Both Paul Frees, Marvin Miller and many others were staples during the Golden Age of Radio, especially as it neared its end around 1960. Many as noted here worked both on radio and television. I doubt many lost jobs due to the changeover from radio to television. The popular radio shows were left on the doorstep like an unwanted child and the new television executives at the various networks were more interested in the economics of the business as opposed to the art and talent that had been known in radio's "The Theater of the Mind". "Gunsmoke" was the last dramatic radio show to air from Hollywood in June of 1961 (having begun April 26, 1952 with William Conrad, Parley Baer, Howard McNear and Georgia Ellis). Both the radio show and the television version aired conjunctively until 1961, during their long runs, especially the television version.

There is a possible discrepancy in the number of episodes in the series. Most sources say that there were 206 episodes, but several online sources (who, admittedly could be mistaken) point to an episode (S03E07-The Denny Havens Story) that was originally broadcast on either 17OCT1956 or 24OCT1956. Checking back on the TV sections of various newspapers of that era, I find that there is indeed an unaccounted for "extra" episode of The Millionaire broadcast then, however none of the TV Schedule sources I've found give specifics about which episode it was. As the rest of the time/dates for episodes ARE accounted for, I am very inclined to believe that that Denny Havens episode DID exist, but has slipped through the cracks. When moved into syndication, 16 episodes were kept back ("removed from syndication") and the Denny Havens episode would make a total of 17 "unavailable" episodes. So, unless there is a change in status, there are 190 episodes available, I have 185 of them.....so far. The 17 REMO(removed) episodes are: S01E02 S02E13 S03E07 S04E09 S05E14 S06E25 S02E26 S03E28 S04E11 S05E21 S06E27 S04E24 S05E24 S06E33 S04E28 S05E33 S04E30

At 00:50 it sounds like announcer Ralph Paul introducing the show . He did similar intros for Warren Hulls Strike It Rich before they were cancelled and replaced with this show. He also worked for Ed Sullivan on his show pitching Colgate Palmolive's products on all three. By the way , unlike some women of today, Agnes Moorehead has a nice face and figure for a 59 year old woman. It must be her clean spartan living.

Interesting how Michael Anthony seems to have evolved into a host; catch the ending when he previews next week's millionaire and says "see you next week." Or was that cut from the reruns on CBS daytime and later syndication?

Since "The Millionaire" was re-run as a five-a-week, Monday-through-Friday strip as mentioned above, I suspect the closing and "see you next week" were edited out...so it was fascinating to see the show as it originally aired, complete with commercials...I was a couple months short of eight years old when this aired in 1960
