What’s another million?

In the ‘life imitating art imitating life’ category, U.S. net ABC is bringing back Who Wants to Be a Millionaire for its tenth anniversary – five years after it was dropped from primetime on the network. The two-week run this coming August will unfortunately feature original host Regis Philbin and not Anil Kapoor, the actor who played host Prem Kumar in the surprise hit Slumdog Millionaire. Slumgdog’s success surely has to be credited for single-handedly resuscitating the tired format.
