Be a Contestant — $100,000 Pyramid

The $100,000 Pyramid: How to Be a Contestant

Contestants on The $100,000 Pyramid, hosted by Michael Strahan, are cast through its official site, castingpyramid.com. When we checked in October 2026 the site said it was accepting completed application forms for Season 8. When we checked in September 2026, ABC had not announced a new season.

Who Can Apply

The casting site says: “You must be at least 21 years of age and a legal resident of the United States to apply.”

How to Apply

The application asks you to answer its questions in detail, give your current contact details, and upload two recent, clear, color photos of yourself along with a video.

How the Game Works

Each civilian contestant plays alongside a celebrity partner, giving and guessing clues against the clock, and the winner goes on to the Winner’s Circle. Our how-to-play guide has the rules.

A Word of Caution

A real casting call never charges a fee: anyone who asks for money to get you on a show is not the show. GameShows.com is a fan site: we do not cast any show, and comments on this page do not reach the producers.
