A Reality Take On 'The Millionaire'
A day after Oprah's Big Give gave out -- it will not return next season -- reports emerged that Fox is planning its own philanthropic reality show, Secret Millionaire. The format is yet another import from Britain, where it has been a hit for two years: a millionaire agrees to live in an area of poverty for ten days, experiencing what it's like to live on a meager income. At the end of the ten days, he reveals who he actually is and hands over a $100,000 check drawn on his own bank account to at least one deserving member of the community. Meanwhile ABC's Stephen McPherson said that the network was prepared to bring Oprah's Big Give back for a second season, but "it wasn't something Oprah wanted to do."
