Tok! Tok! Tok! Isang Milyon Pasok (lit. Knock! Knock! Knock! One Million Enter) is a Philippine television game show broadcast by GMA Network. Hosted by Paolo Bediones, it premiered on May 27, 2007.

Overview

Gameplay

3 pairs of contestants composed of a celebrity and the contestant itself are to play in the game. The contestant shall answer the questions given by the host. Every correct answer entitles him to "roll" the electronic die. The celebrity will act as the contestant's token in the life-sized gameboard composed of 18 doors. Each door has surprises and challenges inside (like crocodiles, chilis, etc.) that the celebrity must do in order for them to win the power stone which represents certain prizes. The power stone could be used to avoid the challenge but must be given back to the host (also the money). The first one who reaches door 18 goes to the jackpot round.

Jackpot

The pair could go home with the money in the elimination round or to give it back. If they decide to give it back, the winning pair must choose one door among 7 doors. Whatever the prize inside is theirs.

AMOUNTS: PATAS (Same amount as to the money they gave back), DOUBLE, 20,000, 30,000, 50,000, 100,000 and 1,000,000.

Spin-offs

Due to the overwhelming success of the game show, it has been franchised and exported to GMA's regional networks in Cebu, Davao and Iloilo. The provincial versions of "Tok! Tok! Tok!" will be subtitled "Kwarta Pasok!" (Money In) instead of "Isang Milyon Pasok"

Second season

Due to public demand, the second season of Tok! Tok! Tok! Isang Milyon Pasok will be returning on August 24, 2008 in replacement with Pinoy Idol. The show only took a three and a half months break to give way for the said singing reality competition. The last episode is on November 2, 2008.
