The beloved “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” is back for a new season, hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, and set to premiere on ABC on Wednesday, July 10.
Originally hosted by Regis Philbin, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire first premiered on American television 25 years ago last month. It was an instant hit, and ultimately became so popular that at one point ABC was airing the show five nights a week. Kimmel first stepped into Regis Philbin’s shoes back in April 2020 for a then-new network revival of the series, and returned later that year with a second season.
