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.

Famous quotes containing the words money and/or list:
“As I went about with my father when he collected taxes, I knew that when taxes were laid some one had to work to earn the money to pay them.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
