Woaw, I really like the new question graphic! It makes me a lot of nostalgia to see them again and I hope other countries will use this graphic. I can't wait to see this first episode and its surprises!

Loving the new graphics. This makes me even more excited than I already am. I’m also watching several episodes, such as the first episode, the primetime finale, hopefully an episode with a Millionaire, Bob-O on Super Millionaire, the first syndicated episode, Meredith’s finale, the first Chris Harrison episode, and the syndicated finale.

Happy Millionaire premiere day everyone! Saw a commercial today with Jimmy saying let's play Millionaire. I have been wondering whether he will say Let's play Millionaire or Let's play WWTBAM! Can't wait for tonight!!

Let's hope the ratings do well. It's rather disheartening to see people on Twitter give overwhelmingly negative responses to the show coming back. It's a quiz show, and while you may not like it, it certainly has brought out a lot of vitriol from people.

I really hope this goes without saying but please no spoilers posted publicly!! If you are absolutely are itching to post a spoiler, please use the the feature we have for that. Please allow 24 hours after the episode airs before not covering up your spoilers. Let's give everyone a shot to watch the show before having it ruined for them.

I’m already loving the new Millionaire. Jimmy’s a great host, and I haven’t been more excited to watch US Millionaire.

Now that the first episode's over, all I can say is that Syndicated Millionaire is buried 6 feet under, and the Classic show is back!

Great show, I'm glad that they're using the classic format again, and those modern classic graphics are awesome. However, I don't understand why they even bother asking the first 10 questions as... Idolsfan

After watching the first episode, I'm happy the show is back, but it didn't give me that "OMG MILLIONAIRE IS BACK!!!!!!" type of feeling. I think it's probably because of how different the overall feel of it is compared to what we've seen on the original show + the syndicated shows. Obviously we're only through one episode, so I'll be a bit more of a critic on it after seeing a few more episodes. Definitely hoping the ratings will be good, it can only lead to bigger and better things down the road if it performs well enough.

I didn't like the pace of it. I felt there was too much talking and not enough playing.
I, personally, found tonight's questions to be way too easy. There were only two of them that I did not know about.
That said, I am ecstatic that prime time Millionaire is back, and I want my chance at the hot seat. That's a dream of mine.

Kimmel is great. I could instantly tell that he is a good fit for this format.
The set is beautiful. And the music... it’s so wonderful to hear that music again in the US.
The tone was par for the course on a celebrity episode. Having the companion available full-time for the first 10 questions really destroyed any tension and I wished they hadn’t done that. The lack of an audience was more jarring than I expected, but I’d rather have that than no Millionaire at all (as was almost the case).
Overall, I enjoyed it a lot but the REAL magic will be marrying this format with civilian contestants!
