- Funny Moments: Central Television's Christmas tape 1992 had a blooper from the British Bob Monkhouse version:Bob: For a total prize of £3,200, I'm going to ask you a five-part question that will require five correct answers. Should you wish to piss—should you wish to piss?(audience laughs, Bob somewhat walks away)Bob: Should you...!(Beat, completely stunned at his slip of the tongue)Bob: ...if you do, we can take you out of there for just over...! It makes me think - we all make mistakes. That’s why they put rubbers on the end of pencils.
- Germans Love David Hasselhoff: In both the Swedish and Finnish versions, this show lasted more than 30 years with the same host.
- Memetic Mutation: The idiom of the "$64 question", and later the "$64,000 question", referring to somebody asking one a very important question, stemmed from the show.
- Moment of Awesome: Anyone who won the $64,000 prize. Dr. Joyce Brothers deserves a special mention, studying every source she could find about her category of boxing.
- Never Live It Down: Like fellow rigged quiz 21, the show will forever be linked to the quiz show scandals.
- Visual Effects of Awesome: The Isolator in the 1990's UK revival. The music cue also counts as Awesome Music.
