The popular game show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? is set to return after a several-year hiatus.
However, when it returns, the show will have a new twist, and it already appears fans aren’t happy with the concept.
The show last appeared on the air three years ago and received its renewal amid its 25th-anniversary celebration.
Millionaire debuted in the United States in 1999. Regis Philbin was the host, guiding contestants through multiple-choice questions with the money they could win increasing after every correct answer.
A version of the show aired on ABC in 2020 and 2021 with Late Night host Jimmy Kimmel as host.
However, the show was one of many productions that shut down during that time due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Welcome to this week’s review of Impact Wrestling, which this week opens with a Before the Impact match that saw Ace Austin defeat Jason Hotch. Let’s get into the review…
Match #1: Deonna Purrazzo def. Dani Luna The following is courtesy of impactwrestling.com:
Before Deonna Purrazzo battles the returning Jordynne Grace tomorrow night at Victory Road, she must first get by Subculture’s Dani Luna! Purrazzo goes for the Fujiwara Armbar early but Luna scurries to the ropes. Luna hits a Fallaway Slam, followed by a running clothesline. Purrazzo gains control with an Arm Wringer into the hardest part of the ring. Back in the ring, Purrazzo hits a Backstabber for two. Luna connects with a dropkick, followed by a powerbomb. Luna rolls her up for another near fall. Purrazzo locks in the Fujiwara Armbar to win by submission.
My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: Joya (Joe Hendry & Yuya Uemura) def.
