Jimmy Kimmel’s ‘Millionaire’ returns to production for second season, will feature frontline workers

Jimmy Kimmel may be off on summer break from his nightly talk show but production has resumed for his popular game show.

ABC’s “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” reboot, hosted by Kimmel, returned to production on its second season, following the COVID-19 shutdown in March.

According to Deadline, the show is shooting in Los Angeles with a minimal crew and without an audience, while following rigorous safety protocols that adhere to all state and local requirements as well as union and industry guidelines for production.

“Who Wants to be a Millionaire?” was one of the last non-scripted shows to complete production, before the coronavirus crisis took form in America. It shot eight episodes the weekend of March 14 without an audience.
