Who Wants to be a Millionaire? Reviews

Who wants to be a millionaire....me, me, me, me...i do. I do. Who doesn't? Watching ordinary people coming close to this magical number is both breathtaking, and wonderful. The structure of the stage alone, with the dark, but warm colours immediately creates an atmosphere of tension and anxiety. The music is fabulous. Again ...  Read the complete review

There can be few human beings living around the world who are not familiar with the television phenomenon that is "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" I have no idea how many different countries around the world now screen their own version of the show, but I know that there are variations in at least ten different countries - ...  Read the complete review

When this show first came out, I must admit that I was a big fan of it. The atmosphere was tense and electric and I enjoyed seeing the contestants put through their paces by Chris Tarrant as well as screaming the answers at the screen. Great, I thought, finally a game show that isn't exactly the same as every other one. For ...  Read the complete review

Let's kick off with a personal confession here - namely, that I am sick to the back teeth of watching this programme, even the theme music and rolling credits are enough to expel me from the room, safely away from any sight or sound connected with this game show. Recent ratings and polls have revealed a sharp decline in viewers - are ...  Read the complete review

This is a really good game show and has taken the country by storm. Nearly everyone watches the game show and it is very exciting. The thing that makes it exciting the most is that Chris Tarrant is the host and he really gets you off your seat with the way he makes you think you have got a question wrong and than bam! ...  Read the complete review

Don’t get me wrong I do like ‘Who Wants to be a Millionaire’, but I loved it when it first started 2 years ago! Isn’t it getting a bit old now? There’s only a certain amount of time you can laugh at the fact that he teases people. You now know whether they have got the question right or wrong because it has ...  Read the complete review

When Chris delivers his oh so well known speech 'We'll find out after the break, or worse still 'We'll find out if he/she is right on the next show'. Aarghhh!! The contestants must be so frustrated. I have rung this show on about 10 occasions and each time l have answered the question correctly, been told to ...  Read the complete review

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, has, unquestionably, changed game shows, and perhaps T.V as a whole, forever. That really goes without saying. I mean, surely you can all remember game show prizes such as a paperweight, a notebook and a toaster? The fact is that Who Wants To Be A Millionaire has upped the ante of game shows beyond ...  Read the complete review

I have to say, WWTBAM has sold out a little bit. Well, at least I thought so until I saw that woman go home with nothing. I sat screaming the answers at my TV set. These questions were so easy, but as Chris Tarrant pointed out, the cliched "Its only easy if you know the answers" Fair play to Chris though, for ...  Read the complete review

Ok so she already is, but I`m sure she would like to be part of the hugh success that has become Millionaire. The programme is very addictive and the audience is sucked in to find out if Miss V. Bloggs from Stoke-on-Trent will reach the thousand never mind the million. The best moments in the programme are when the contestants ...  Read the complete review

Launched nearly three years ago, who wants to be a millionaire has become one of the most successful TV shows to hit the small screen. However, after three years of the same host, the same catch phrases and the same programme structure, it seems ITV’s flagship show is nearing the end of the line. In the early days, the ...  Read the complete review

Yawn! Yawn! Here we go again for £100, "What is a dog?" Is it (a)....... How riveting, how mind stretching. Let's face it: if the contestant can't get to £1000 it's a wonder that they have managed to master the art of making a telephone call to actually become a contestant. If the quiz started at ...  Read the complete review

When WWTBAM first started, it was revolutionary, as £1 Million was a huge amount of money as a prize. Now that it has some other shows like it (The Weakest Link), The amount is still impressive, people are too happy to settle for £500,000 and the ratings are starting to drop. The programme is still good, although the only million pund ...  Read the complete review

I origianlly liked Who wants to be a Millionnaire, but now I think that although still a hit with some people the craze has died down. Several contestants play the fastest finger first round, (which is usually luck,) and then go on to answer 15 questions in hope of winning 1 million, with the help of three lifelines. ...  Read the complete review

Although everyone claims to hate the infamous Mr Tarrant for his trademark phrase "But we don't want to give you that!", his television quiz "Who Wants To Be A Millionnaire?" is actually quite good. For the people who manage to appear on the show (and a dubious source of mine said that someone wasn't ...  Read the complete review

Who wants to be a millionaire ? Well who doesn't, and the spectacle of watching 'someone like us' actually winning a million pounds answering questions that we may be able to answer (or perhaps we have a 'friend' who might) is bound to be an attractive spectacle and it is easy to understand why it has become a great ...  Read the complete review
