FOX's New Show Secret Millionaire

       

Riding on the coat tails of feel-good shows like Extreme Home Makeover, Fox premiered its new show Secret Millionaire last night.  I actually found it to be a great show!  Fox essentially finds multi-millionaires and makes them go 'undercover' for a week to live amongst very poor and needy people.  They get the opportunity to meet and work with people far less fortunate than them and really see how the other side lives.  At the end of the week, they give their own money to people they feel are most deserving.

Fox had a double-hitter last night with 2 premier episodes, one taking place in the very poor Imperial Beach CA and the other in post-Katrina Louisiana.  Both episodes were quite moving and inspirational, with the second couple giving away a whopping $300K of their own money.  If you like feel-good shows like this, where you'll inevitably be crying at the end, I highly recommend the show.  It's on Wednesday nights on FOX at 8pm.  Check out full episodes HERE.
