Weekend Replay: New “Millionaire” Lifeline Double Dip
Continuing our Weekend Replay of a preview of Who Wants to be a Millionaire?‘s new lifelines which will be coming up on September 8th (check your local listings). Replacing Fifty/Fifty is “Double Dip,” which is taken from ABC’s revival Super Millionaire. In Double Dip, you can answer the question twice. If the first answer you give is incorrect, you get a 2nd shot. Be warned, if you confirm you want to use it, you cannot back out of the question. You must play it. Enjoy.
And I can definitely tell you he took more than 45 seconds to answer that question or decide on which lifeline to use!
You just can’t force people to make split-second decisions about hundreds of thousands of dollars….assuming anyone even gets there now! Very few people even win $100,000 nowadays!
Again, from what I see, you still a decent handfull of six figure winners, it’s just been so long since the last top prize win on WWTBAM. It will happen again though, at some point!
The only thing i like about the the new season is the new graphics.
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it
I would take the Gay Dance Party music and the 12 question format over the time limit and the menu thing and revealing the question topics . Like i said before changing the music and the graphics and adding new light colors to the set will make the show look and feel fresh.
I also wish they would copy off Germany and had the old game and the new game. The New Game would get rid of the 25 thousand safe level and add a new lifeline.
Congratulation’s Michael Davies you have made the show suck even more . I’ll stick to the rerun abused Regis Version.
Please international versions do not copy off our version.
“I also wish they would copy off Germany and had the old game and the new game. The New Game would get rid of the 25 thousand safe level and add a new lifeline.”
The German version returned tonight for another season. Apart from new opening titles and the transformation to 16:9 widescreen. Everything else is the same, even the very swish studio.
