I think it will be hosted by Carrie Ann Inaba. I really liked this show. I hope they will have an online version too.

I really liked this show, but I hate how GSN is turning it into some cheap weeknight thing. I don't think this version of the show is going to last very long since the prize money is going to be lowered to $50000 and only "Poll" and "Trust" are available as helps.

Carrie Ann Inaba is a judge from Dancing with the Stars, but she's better known for her choreography work and her role as *beep* Mi and *beep* Yu in the Austin Powers Goldmember.

I too believe that 50,000 is a lot of money. But I feel like the primetime appeal is somewhat lessened when the prize money takes such a huge cut and the gameplay and mob kinda changes. I have no doubts about Inaba's hosting, but yes I will miss Bob Saget.

The second incarnation of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire with Meredith Viera would be an example of an altered show that's doing ok, but I still miss Regis and his version.

i liked Saget too and i never heard of the new host but she's kind of hot though so i'll probably get used to pretty quickly!

Oh my, I'm watching this now as I type it, it's HORRIBLE. Especially the money

Now whenever Bob asked "Do you want the money or do you want the mob?", the amount of money someone usuallly had at that time was in the 5-6 figures. The amount of money you win in this is a JOKE. And the host is a joke too.

they probably lowered the prize money since its on every weeknight....GSN probably doesn't want to give out that much money every night.

yeah i'm watching it right now on GSN....this is my first time watching it with the new host....its only 5 minutes in so i don't know if they changed the show in any way.....i have to say that so far,i liked it better with Bob Saget....

wow, i just noticed that the members of the mob are not actually in the studio. they have 100 screens instead. that kind of sucks.

Inaba was also one of the original Fly Girls from "In Living Color". I think she was on before Jennifer Lopez joined. I think they should up the amount to at least $100k. For the most part, with the exception of "Who Wants To Be a Millionaire", syndicated versions of big game shows usually offered less than the original versions.
