Game shows have always managed to remain a hit among the audience, thanks to the thrill of the competition and, of course, the lure of the highly coveted prize money. One of the most popular game shows that have been around for a really long time is the 'Pyramid'. The original series, titled 'The $10,000 Pyramid', premiered in 1973. Following its wild success, several 'Pyramid' spinoff shows were created across the world with varying amounts of prize money in the title.

Despite the changes in the prize money and the hosts of the show, the game's format has remained largely unchanged and just as popular today as it was over three decades ago! Read on to know all about the upcoming Season 5 of 'The $100,000 Pyramid' hosted by Michael Strahan.
