Story and premise

CBS brings the classic game show Password back to primetime with Million Dollar Password. Hosted by Regis Philbin, two teams comprised of a contestant and celebrity, will compete against each other in a race to determine what the hidden word is from one word clues given by the partner. Points are gained if you guess the correct secret word with the point value beginning at 10 and then decreasing as each guess is missed.
