'Millionaire' returning to TV

ABC announced that the prime-time version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" will return August 9 for 11 new episodes. This will be the show's tenth season and will once again be hosted by Regis Philbin, according to EW.com.

ABC's renewed interest in the show is likely due to the success of "Slumdog Millionaire."
