WWTBAM returning to ABC for 25th Anniversary!

I can't believe this on-topic news hasn't been reported here yet!

ABC will open up the lifelines once more this summer.

The network has greenlit a new season of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire that will air starting July 10. The new run will coincide with the game show’s 25th anniversary on ABC; it premiered on Aug. 16, 1999.
Woo h--
Jimmy Kimmel, who hosted the last Millionaire revival on ABC in 2020 and 2021, will return to the host’s chair once again. The show will feature pairs of celebrities playing to win up to $1 million for charities of their choosing.

Pairs of celebrities, no less! Because an individual celeb, playing under the special celebrity advantages, still might not do well enough to generate the desired excitement.

Same sentiments, M'gh0st. Dammit.
To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead. -Thomas Paine
You can ignore reality, but you can't ignore the consequences of ignoring reality. -Ayn Rand
Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities. -Voltaire

There is no desired excitement in celebrities playing, period.
