Drama is obviously the main genre in Antena3, as lots of these TV series are having a really good performance in the ratings. At this point, it doesn't surprise anyone that the channel is investing on lots of entertainment formats like "¡Boom!", "¡Ahora Caigo!" or "The Voice". This programming is going to get expanded with the revival of an all-time classic in the history of Spanish TV, on prime time.
As FormulaTV has been able to know exclusively, Antena3 is planning to air the revival of WWTBAM. The game show that aired a long time ago on Telecinco, laSexta and Antena3 itself could come back really soon in its prime time slot. The channel is thinking about the return of the show with a series of special episodes to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its premiere in Spain. The producer responsible for this new season of the show will be Warner Bros. Spain. For now, the recording/air date of these episodes is a mystery, as Warner is waiting for Antena3 to give them the green light to start recording.

In my opinion, this is fantastic! I've been waiting so long for Millionaire to come back in Spain. I think it will be aired on Friday nights, since that time slot is weak right now with the bad version of Ellen DeGeneres' Game Of Games. As for the host, it is a mystery as well. It would be perfect if Carlos Sobera returned to host it. However, he has a multi-year contract with Mediaset España (Telecinco), so I think it won't be possible. What do you think? about this?
