This is quite an easy question...anyone with a sense of culture should know that Marius is a character from Les Mis. How the hell do you think you can get a million bucks by answering questions when you don't have cultural knowledge?
I hate this format! They should go back to the original format, when $25,000 was $32,000 (and so on), where you had ACTUAL lifelines (not this Jump the Question crap), you sat in the hot seat, you walked away with all your prize money instead of half, the questions went in order, and they had dramatic music. I don't watch it anymore because they changed it beyond recognition.
the music is good but the old one was better. the hot seat was definitely better than this salad bar looking table. Everything about this new setup looks pretty lame. The old one made the contestant felt pressure and in the spotlight. This one is too casual!
@director2555 Faith in God also causes war, starvation, and genocide. How does that work for you? I'm personally very glad that Gawd helped you win something, instead of housing or feeding one of the dozens of homeless in my city. Thank Gawd for that.
No one will ever win a million. Everyone walks away. Bring the original or clock format back!!!!! I feel like I'm wasting my time watching this......they even changed the horn at the end!!!!
I like this version. It's a nice change from a format we had going for 10 years. I do miss the clock because it made the game go by faster, but I don't mind hearing contestants speak their mind out during the questions. As for the music, yes, it's not the classic Millionaire dramatic stings (I do like Season 8 and 9's music better), but the cues in this version aren't that bad. The question music has a soothing, yet thought-provoking feel to it.
@Jakub1POLSKAnew I personally think this is the perfect version for Japan. The Shuffle format is full of excitement and surprises. I think the Japanese will adopt this format if they notice it.
Give it a chance. The format right before this one wasn't very good, especially after they removed the PAF lifeline, but I think this version has potential.
God, the old music was so much more suspenseful. Take away the hot seat to make it more "Dramatic" because people "Weren't intimidated by it anymore" and then put in that crappy generic music that isn't dramatic at all. Oy.
@GameShowGamer Incorrect. The cards only have contestant information on them. She still has her information screen like she's always had - it's projected on a giant screen in the unseen archway (the old one contestants used to exit the stage with - and yes, the entire studio can see it and everything on it, including the indicator that tells whether or not an answer is correct)
@mecha03 Are you absolutely sure the indicator's there? I heard from a good source that she always wears a very well hidden earpiece. Wouldn't that be a better means to relay the answer?
@ArtemissimetrA I wouldn't have said it if I wasn't 100% positive. Coming from people who have been in the audience for tapings and behind the scenes videos.
@mecha03 Let's think about this for just one second... what makes you think that the audience can see everything on the screen when they still have an "Ask the Audience" lifeline? Does that make even just a TINY bit of sense to you?
Besides, if you remember, back in the day when Regis was hosting the show, he already mentioned on his day-time talkshow that he had an earpiece in his ear.
@BuhGuh28 To answer your question, yes, it makes perfect sense because the answer is never on the screen. Unless the host genuinely knows the answer to the question, they don't know whether it's right or wrong until it's been finalized when a small green spot lights up or not. All game show hosts wear ear pieces so the control room can communicate with them if need be. Check a behind the scenes video to see it all for yourself.
