Thank you for posting that link, Randydorney! I am downloading the episode now and can't wait to watch it. Too bad Chad Mosher can't upload the episode every day! gagamillionaire, I will let you know if I find an alternative way to watch the show, too. We fans have to stick together!

NO Problem @regisfan!  I thought it would be nice to help out for those who (like myself) missed the opening premiere of the new season 11 of "Millionaire". |

Just watched the 3rd Episode of Season 11 of Millionaire on TV!  To me, the new studio looked a lot bigger than the Season 10 studio. I took some pictures of my TV of Millionaire, but I'm not sure if I am allowed to post them here. (@regisfan/buzzerblog, can I? )SPOILER ALERT BELOW - CAUTIONAndrew, the contestant, was faced with the $500,000 Question, which read: ---------{In the center of our Milky Way galaxy is a black hole that appears from Earth to be in what constellation?}----------------------------------{ A: Orion }----------------------------------------{ B: Ursa Major }------------------------------------
------------------------{ C: Cassiopeia }----------------------------------{ D: Sagittarius }------------------------------------He was leaning towards D: Sagittarius, but decided to walk away, with $250,000. It turned out that the correct answer was D: Sagittarius, what he had thought before. Wait. Does that mean that if he had the guts to answer the $500,000 and got it correct, we could've witnessed the first $1,000,000 shown in Shuffle Millionaire? Interesting. However, I don't blame him. With millions of people watching, I don't think he would want to embarrass himself in front of national TV, haha. SPOILER ALERT PASSEDAnyway, the studio looks way bigger on TV than in the photos that buzzerblog uploaded on here and on the website.. (Thanks again, buzzerblog, for sharing the all of the photos and information with us! ) Sincerely, Zachary wwtbamfan |

Nope. I meant what I said. I have pictures of my TV showing Millionaire broadcasting, but I'm not sure whether I am able to upload them on here or not. I'm waiting for answers from Regisfan and/or buzzerblog.  Zachary wwtbamfan |

wwtbamfan, what i was talking about was you said that contestant walked with $25,000 when really he walked with $250,000.

I'm still rather shocked that not a single person has won $500,000 since Lyn Payne in 2007. The only people to have seen a million dollar question since then have been Ken Basin and those on the Million Dollar Tournament of Ten.

In this video: At around 0:58, the big screen where the question is displayed looks curved from that angle. Is the screen truly curved? Thanks! Zachary wwtbamfan |

I would imagine that one or more projectors are used and that the screen is truly curved. I'm pretty sure curved screens of that size aren't possible yet.

Wait. They use projectors? I thought that it was just a huge monitor display, like a TV. And if the screen isn't curved, why does it look that way? Thanks! Zachary wwtbamfan |

This is just speculation. It would be easy to have two projectors run onto a curved surface.

I find the set of the new Millionaire Season incredibly improved. Some say it's better than the older versions of the show.
I find the music, sounds and interface much smoother than the previous seasons, I would personally like to see how the new show carries out.

I didn't see the talk of the monitor until now. Yes, it is a curved projection screen. They use 4 projectors now. And, again, it is curved to create a more circular appearance around the set now.

) I guess the next on will be Poland then...
