Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Here's a fact that many of you will find surprising about me. I was a contestant on a live show based on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire called Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It that was featured in Disneyland and Walt Disney World and I would like to know if anyone had seen it? Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It was an awesome version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire that was such a neat show and it's a shame that Disney did away with this interactive game show because it was so nice and with Who Wants To Be A Millionaire still popular Disney should bring it back to the theme parks

Yes, Bestie! I remember "Play It"! To be a contestant, you had to answer trivia questions. You got to be a contestant? WOW! You must be smart! I agree Disney should bring it back.

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It was one of the best interactive game shows the Disney theme parks had ever done and I thought it was amazing and when I was a contestant I even got to meet some of the hosts of the show and we had a fun time discussing Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and it was so great but why Disneyland and Walt Disney World decided to close Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It I can't figure out because it seems to be a mystery that will never be solved because the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire show is still popular in syndication
Does anyone know why Walt Disney World and Disneyland no longer has Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It?

Another thing that made Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It a unique version of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire was that every contestant who made it to the Hotseat got to win prizes such as collectible pins and an exclusive denim polo shirt for reaching highest levels of points on the show. And when a contestant won the million point prize the original grand prize was a trip to New York to attend an actual taping of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire with a chance to meet Regis Philbin afterwards then later as the show began to get more popular in Walt Disney World /Disneyland the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It grand prize was a cruise from Disney Cruise Line. Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It was an awesome adaption of the popular game show and Disneyland and Walt Disney World should bring it back but have it played the same way as Chris Harrison while keeping the awesome prizes won by getting the high point amounts and that would be great for Disneyland and Walt Disney World to do in the future

I heard that one of the actual reasons why Walt Disney World and Disneyland closed Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It was because the hosts that hosted the show wanted a higher salary and many were forced to do other work around Walt Disney World and Disneyland and another thing I learned about Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It was that before the last show had begun Disney auctioned off the entire set and sold it to people. One other thing I couldn't figure out is why Disney didn't allow the hosts of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire to give out autographs or be social with the people after every show and I always found it odd that Disney decided to do this? Did the hosts of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It have to follow special protocol or did they have a contract that forbade them to give out autographs or have the same rules as character meet and greets at Walt Disney World/Disneyland?
I liked Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It and I do wish Disney could do a wise move and bring it back due to the popularity of the Chris Harrison version of Millionaire in syndication and I think it would be a huge success for the Disney theme parks because it was one of the popular interactive game shows that people of all ages could play

Hi, Bestie! Play It! Was one of the best attractions Disney ever had. I am jealous you got to be a contestant. To be one you had to earn it by answering hard trivia questions. But those were probably easy for you, you are the smartest one on this site and everybody here is an expert in something. I think they closed it because it was expensive to do. Disney is cheap.

I also visited the "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire - Play It!" attraction at Disney and the thing was a joke.

You were also a contestant on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It JamesG? That's cool that you were able to visit Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It. Did you ever get into the hotseat or be in the Ring Of Fire when you went?

All I remember was that everyone had keypads and those who passed the 1st question, if they wanted to, got to go up for a shot at the hot seat. Most of them were kids and the questions were fairly simple.

Disneyland and Walt Disney World made a wrong move to close Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It and I was surprised that Disney did this. But at least the former Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It hosts have been doing other things. In fact one of the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It hosts from the Disneyland branch of the show is a commercial star and was featured in commercials for Allstate before Dean Winters became a spokesman and is now a wrestling commentator and happened to be my first game show host friend. I miss Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It and still wish Disney could bring it back with the Chris Harrison style and spirit

I heard a rumor that Disney is in talks to bring back Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It to Walt Disney World/Disneyland but I haven't heard more about this rumor. If this rumor is true I hope Disney brings back Who Wants To A Millionaire Play It to it's soaring glory. Because Walt Disney World/Disneyland needs more game show type live shows that are interactive for people of all ages

Hi, Bestie! I hope want Disney to bring it back too. I went there when it was at Disney and it was exciting. It was a real studio, with pro hosts. Maybe it was too expensive for tightwad Disney.

Did you know that Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It in Walt Disney World had it's youngest player who was a two year old little boy and he broke a Play It record by being the littlest contestant in the history of Play It. Another amazing fact about Play It is that one of the hosts of the show is actually a long time host for HSN and has since moved on to become a news anchor for a TV station in L.A.

How far did the 2 year old get?

You would think that with the death of Regis Philbin Disneyland and Walt Disney World could revive Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It like they revived Captain EO when Michael Jackson passed away in 2009. Because since Regis Philbin was important to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire they should really bring it back. Another fun fact about Who Wants To Be A Millionaire Play It was in it's early days before the actual show began a cute preshow aired that featured Regis relaxing reading his book when suddenly a stage manager named Mary tells him it's time for the show and when Regis discovers he won't be hosting the show Mary tells him they shall search for an understudy which the host appeared after the preshow ended. Mary and Regis go over the familar rules of the game and talk about prizes the contestant who was chosen to play in the hotseat would win. In the second year that the show had the cute preshow was gone and replaced with a promotion of the syndicated Millionaire's debut in 2002
