theomorton: Hi Matt, I was reading your post and I understand you have access to a question database? I'm working on a personal hobby project and was looking for a DB of questions. Can you help? Thanks ahead!

probium: Sound design of Arkadium Millionaire is flawed. Once I get the final question wrong, I get treated to the $32,000 lose cue, NOT the $1 Million lose cue.

FrankT: Good grief, nobody told me they revived Wheel of Fortune in the UK. Looks like I have something else to watch now!

probium: For some reason when I click on a lifeline I already used, it freezes. Also the sound design is flawed, with the normal question wrong theme playing in place of the early question wrong theme.

5 stories, some real, some fake, you have to decide which one is fact and which is fiction and you get to hear the solution at the end of the show Who remembers that show format?
First aired in the USA in May 1997 (25 Years ago) Season 1 - hosted by James Brolin
Season 2 and onwards - Hosted by Jonathan Frakes
Since the hype for the show never went away in Germany, we had a "test" reboot halloween special last year with german actors & stories. And fans, superfans & community wanted a revival all american style. So here we are with Season 5, 25 years after its debut!
TV Trailer for 30th October 2022, RTL 2 with actually original voice of Jonathan Frakes (he got localized in the german episodes, by a german voice actor of course)
All recorded in Los Angeles earlier this year over a period of 9 weeks / 8 episodes total. So far 2 of these episodes have aired. "X-Factor: Das Unfassbare" on RTL2 I have them recorded in case somebody is interested ^^
And they're now on YouTube, Snapchat and Instagram with an account dedicated to the reboot of the show in Germany
The stories get uploaded to the german YouTube Channel with the same name Here's the first part of this year's first episode, with the first story (german) and its solution at the end
Chances are that this format will return to the US at some point with original voice too. Opinions?
I loved this show and have revisited it many times over the years. I hope the German revival leads to a similar resurgence in the US. I’ve long felt that the interactive element of the show would be great fun in the era of social media.

Indeed an interesting idea for voting Fact or Fiction. But then it should be just an overlay telling to vote on website XY. Believe me when i say the german fans dont want any additions or changes to the show's routine. They want it as much 90s style as possible xD
The viewer-amount & market-share did mirror that very well. A total of 980,000ppl tuned in which generated 540,000ppl (9,8%) in target audience Giving the tv station and over-average good rating that evening
I have high hopes for a decent version back to the US. i mean it will be the same, except original voice of Frakes and english voice actors x)
