Softcover. Condition: Good. Cash Mountain. Survive. Project X. In the mid-1990s, these three innovative television shows had hit a dead end before they had even made production. Rejected time and again by the networks, they seemed destined never to reach the screen. But thanks to the brilliance and determination of three men, no…t only did they get made, they became the biggest and most successful shows on earth: Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?, Survivor and Big Brother. BILLION DOLLAR GAME is the compelling story of how Paul Smith, Charlie Parsons and, above all, John de Mol defied overwhelming odds to take the industry by storm, make personal fortunes and transform the map of popular culture. Peter Bazalgette, the man who brought Big Brother to the UK, charts the astonishing rise of reality TV from its humble beginnings on the Internet to the billion-dollar industry it is today. 306 pages.

This is the compelling story of how three men defied overwhelming odds to take the television industry by storm, ma ke personal fortunes, and transform the map of popular culture. Editorial Revie ws Review Bazalgette writes as you would expect - with style, erudition and aut hority. His account is big and brainy, a hugely impressive appreciation of the t echnological, social and economic factors shaping our times. The businessman in Bazalgette clearly admires de Mol, the entertainer in him leavens the plot with laugh-out-loud anecdotes while the scholar gets down the fruit of his 160 interv iews in details. He is authoritative on social change, the democratisation of co ntent and the opportunity created by change on this scale . . . the book is a fi ne account of an extraordinary time in the history of television, a time when it s activities transcended the small screen and became a part of everyone's conver sation, young and old, believers and dissenters, powerful; and powerless?Richard Eyre, former ITV chief, BROADCAST MAGAZINE This is a rattling good business st ory as well as a tale from medialand?GUARDIAN This book is breathtaking?NEW STA TESMAN About the Author Peter Bazalgette is a television executive.
