'Catch a million' returns to Antena 3 this Saturday. After becoming the leading and most watched program on Saturday nights, it returns with a new season this January 4 at 10:00 p.m. with new installments full of emotion.
The new 'Atrapa un Millon' programs are produced by Atresmedia Televisión in collaboration with Gestmusic (Banijay Iberia). Once again, pairs of contestants will try to win the largest possible jackpot by overcoming a series of questions by betting money on the now legendary trapdoors of the program.
Manel Fuentes is once again at the helm of 'Atrapa un Millon', after the success of the specials broadcast in the previous year that achieved a 10.4% audience share, 1,141,000 followers on average and 3,070,000 unique viewerss, leading the night in each of its broadcasts.
Maintaining the mechanics that made the format famous, 'Catch a Million' puts one million euros of real cash on the table (40 bundles of 25,000 euros each). The objective of the game is to keep as much money as possible until the last question.
Contestants will have to answer eight questions. The first four questions have four answer options, but only one is the good one. In the next three questions you will have three answer options.
In the eighth and last question, the contestants play 'All or nothing': there will only be two options, one true and one false.
Throughout the game, contestants can put all the money on one answer or split it across several, but they must always leave one answer with no money. Once the time is up, any money that has not been placed in one of the trap doors will be lost. The bundles that do not fall through the trapdoor will be the ones that the contestants take home.
A historic brand
'Atrapa un Millon' premiered on Antena 3 in February 2011. It started as a Friday format in prime time, but due to its great success it also became a daily afternoon program on the network.
Throughout its three and a half years of broadcast, the program presented by Carlos Sobera distributed 5 million euros. His biggest prize awarded was 300,000 euros and he put up to 2 million euros on the table in some of his specials.
The program was received with great enthusiasm by both the public and critics and in 2011 it received the Ondas Award and the TP de Oro, both in the 'Best Entertainment Program' category.
