Special Weeks Announced For 14th Season Of "Millionaire"

Along with Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy! and Family Feud, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire will begin its new season in syndication Monday, September 14. Unlike the three aforementioned shows, Millionaire will see yet another change in its format and host with The Bachelor's Chris Harrison taking over. The revised format will be going back to basics by switching back to the Money Ladder format after taking a five-year absence thanks to the Shuffle format. The 14-question 2015-16 money ladder is as follows: $500; $1,000; $2,000; $3,000; $5,000; $7,000; $10,000; $20,000; $30,000; $50,000; $100,000; $250,000; $500,000; $1 million. The three lifelines that will be at the contestants' disposal this year are Plus One, Ask The Audience and the return of 50:50. List below are the speciality weeks scheduled to air this season, including a few from returning from the past few years.

Interesting Update: Chris Harrison To Host “Millionaire” Beginning Fall 2015

After hosting Millionaire for less than a season thus far, Terry Crews has decided to step down as the host of the Disney/ABC’s syndicated game show. Like Cedric The Entertainment had done a year ago, Crews has decided to quit his hosting duties to reserve more time for his demanding film and television projects including hosting FOX’s comedic clip show World’s Funniest Fails. Earlier today, ABC announced its new host for 2015-16 season: Chris Harrison. Harrison, currently the host of ABC’s The Bachelor, is no stranger to hosting game shows as he took the helm of a short-lived, forgotten, lackluster GSN original series called Mall Masters and ABC’s equally short-lived primetime game show, You Deserve It. Harrison has also hosted shows on TV Guide Network (Hollywood 411) and HGTV (Designers' Challenge).
