“Millionaire: Hot Seat” Asks Third $1,000,000 Question Ever

The popular Australian spin-off of Who Wants to be a Millionaire called Hot Seat seems to be pretty dividing.  It’s clearly not the greatest game on earth but it’s hard to deny there are some extremely exciting finishes.  One of these situations comes from last Monday’s episode.  Contestant Paul Wolfenden entered the Hot Seat in the middle of the game and worked his way up through the chain.  He became the third person ever to see the $1,000,000 question.  Remember: in this version there is no walking away and no lifelines.  Can he win the $1,000,0000?  Or is he going to drop from $250,000 back to $1,000 (and remember, he can’t walk away).  Find out below.

And yet again: I know it’s not the most fair format on earth but it brings extremely exciting moments like that.  As long as it’s creating exciting television that people will watch nothing else matters much.
