"Millionaire" Returns

"Millionaire..."

ABC...

Yup, the gang's all here.

ABC said it's all coming back - but don't get too excited. Only for an eleven-episode tournament.

"Regis is back in ABC primetime! Celebrating its 10th anniversary, the smash hit “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” comes back to ABC this summer for a special two-week event. 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' premieres SUNDAY, AUGUST 9 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) and will air for 11 nights, Sunday-Thursday at 8:00 p.m., with the finale on SUNDAY, AUGUST 23 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET)."

What's smart about this? Many things, if not a million...

1.) Reeg is great, and with all due respect to Meredith, still the one...

2.) August is a dead zone anyway...

3.) ABC launched "Mill" back at the turn of the century in August...

4.) Reeg is great...sorry, already mentioned that.

5.) The idea of a "tournament" should generate a lot of attention - blogs if not the press.

6.) A whole new "generation" of viewers might even come to the show - although hard to believe nine-year-olds will get too excited...

7.) "Slumdog" still resonates.

8.) The show - "Mill" - still had some life before a brazenly desperate ABC (and yes, Michael Eisner) banged out six weekly editions and pretty much destroyed the franchise outright.
