“Million Dollar Secret” is a new reality competition series that premiered on Netflix on March 26, 2025. The show features 12 contestants who enter a luxurious lakeside estate, where one of them secretly holds $1 million. The objective for the “undercover millionaire” is to keep their identity hidden while participating in various challenges designed to reveal clues about their secret status.
The other contestants work collaboratively to uncover who possesses the money, engaging in strategic gameplay and forming alliances to achieve this goal. Hosted by British comedian Peter Serafinowicz, the series combines elements of suspense, strategy, and deception.
Critics have noted similarities between “Million Dollar Secret” and other reality shows like “The Traitors” and “The Mole.” Some reviews suggest that the show closely mirrors these formats, with one critic referring to it as a “shameless rip-off.”
However, viewers on social media have expressed a more favorable reception, with some stating that the show is “ridiculous but I can’t stop watching.”
