Double or Nothing was a game show where contestants risked their cash winnings for bigger prizes.
Gameplay
Radio Version
Contestants were asked a series of questions that increased in difficulty as they went. They started by answering an easy question for $2, with each subsequent question being worth $2 more and harder than the previous. After winning $10 by correctly answering five questions, they would be given the option to keep their money or go "double or nothing" on a more difficult questions (hence the name of the show) to a maximum of $80.
Television Version
Contestants were asked a series of questions worth $10, $20, $40 and a "Double or Nothing" question, for maximum possible winnings of $140 per game. All of the day's contestants participated in the "Red & White (the colors of the sponsor, Campbell's soup) Sweepstakes" at the end of the show. Another question was asked and each contestant wrote their answer down. The player with the first correct answer won the sweepstakes.
