The Money List is a revival of the American version of The Rich List, which lasted just one episode in its original American run. The game show premiered on June 13, 2009 on GSN with Fred Roggin serving as host. It is produced by 12 Yard.
Pilot episodes were taped in London between August 27 and 30, 2008 on the set of the British version, Who Dares Wins. The rules and format are the same as the show which aired on Fox, but the top prize is $50,000, the same top prize amount used in the New Zealand and British versions.
The Money List is the first GSN original in the network's 15-year history to feature returning champions, a fact which received unanimous praise from critics.
It is unknown if the show will continue since the show has been removed from GSN's website. However, the first three episodes are currently displayed on the GSN video page. The online game is also still displayed and playable.

“Lastly, his tomb
Shall list and founder in the troughs of grass
And none shall speak his name.”
