I'll be watching this one. Although I hate that this signals the end of regular millionaire, the syndie version and the specials are coming this fall.

I don't think Regis Philbin will be doing the syndicated version of the show. Also Rosie turned it down as well, so it will be hosted by one of the ladies from the View. I think Merridith Vierra

It was great while it lasted. I thought Regis was an awesome host and I'm sorry to see him/it go.
