  • I guess so, Yeah.

  • I was barely even a celebrity at that time.

  • Yeah, believe me, I had to ask a couple of times before I got on.

  • It was not easy to sell us the celebrity back then I think it was 1 4002 Remember having like, once again say exactly who you were.

  • Luckily, Regis knew who I was, and that was what was most important.

  • What should I do with my gun?

  • You take this, or how does it work?

  • Yeah.

  • Yeah.

  • Tell you what.

  • Here, Jimmy, You could put around.

  • I got I got something.

  • Good.

  • Nice.

  • Nice opening.

  • I've not watched it because it pains me to see that young punk chewing gum and hand to Regis.

  • I, on the other hand, of what?

  • There?

  • Hundreds of times.

  • And it brings me endless amounts of joy classes.

  • What I'm all about, Regis.

  • That's came full circle.

  • I'm not sure if you even remember this, but there was a time on my show.

  • He just was a guest, and we actually shared a piece of gum.

  • I remember anything, so I don't remember that happened.

  • How are you guys picking your celebrities?

  • Like what goes into that I thought would be great to have a lot of real dump celebrity be funny.

  • Michael said No.

  • We really want to get people who are smart who could potentially win the $1,000,000.

  • I was like, Oh, that doesn't sound like much fun, but okay, I think people like watching celebrities on games.

  • Who good at the games?

  • I mean, I don't think there's much strategy other than just be smart and listen and pay attention and don't make a mental air for sure.

  • There are moments, believe me.

  • There will be celebrities on the show crash out early.

  • You've got no about pop culture and history and science and sport and geography and all of these things, and I just look for people who want to be here.

  • We're excited to go and play the game who loved Jimmy.

  • That's really important.

  • Relationship with host is very important.

  • This is classic millionaire in every way, but we wanted to modernize it significantly.

  • We've added a new lifeline.

  • Ask the host.

  • Where are the celebrity contestants get asked.

  • Terrible, Jimmy question.

  • Jimmy doesn't see any of the answers, but to me, this is a comedic gold.

  • I guess I'm supposed to help, although I don't think I would be much help.

  • Why would we ask Jimmy Kimmel to help us with something?

  • Come on.

  • Would you forget asking the host?

  • I really.

  • I will bear the guilt forever if I screw somebody up.

  • So I'm hoping.

  • I'm hoping people just don't pick that, to be honest with you, I love Jimmy Kimmel and he's much sweeter than Regis.

  • I'm sorry.

  • Just much sweeter.

  • Going for a $1,000,000 here.

  • We're not playing any games and I hope he doesn't try to trip me up like we just used to do.

  • Sometimes when people are you sure?

  • Are you sure?

  • Is that your final?

  • Are you sure it's your final final?

  • And, oh, sure, 70%.

  • I wondered if you're gonna have, like, your own spin on.

  • Is that your final answer?

  • Oh, well, there are certain things that are sacred.

  • And to me, that's one of them.

  • And plus, what would how goofy would be if I was like, Is that your last answer?

  • Are you totally sure about that?

  • I think it's that your final answer is something that must not be tampered with.

  • Final answer, he says.

  • Six.

  • Got it again.

  • Ah, it's a classic line you can't mess with.

  • You said this all happened because Regis came to you in a dream.

  • I would love to know more about that trend is true.

  • All I dream about Regis every night.

  • Usually it's about just regular stuff.

  • Like, what are we gonna have for lunch tomorrow?

  • But in this case, Regis came to me and he said, I need you to carry on a legacy that is very important to me.

  • Something that was very important to the United States of America.

  • We need a little boost right now.

  • I need something that we can rally around.
