"Millionaire" Returns
Reeg...
"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.
