'Must see' Prime Video series lands 100% Rotten Tomatoes rating as star wins $125,000

Helen Hunt features in a 100 percent rated Prime Video drama labelled a 'must-see'.

On Wednesday night (August 13) the actress and Our Little Secret's Dan Bucatinsky joined Jimmy Kimmel for an intense episode of Who Wants to be a Millionaire?

The pair blazed through the first eight questions without a lifeline, then eventually scooped a $125,000 prize. They chose to walk away from a $250,000 question at the risk of their prize pot draining to $32,000.

They split their winnings between homeless charity St. Joseph Centre and LGBTQ+ suicide prevention non-profit, The Trevor Project.

Mad About You star Hunt has an impressive list of TV credits to her name, having broken into the industry at just 10 years old.
