What happens

Millionaire Hot Seat, also known as Hot Seat, is an Australian television quiz show. The show is a spin-off of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? and began airing on the Nine Network on 20 April 2009. As with the original Australian version of the show, it was hosted by Eddie McGuire and followed a similar format. In 2025, it was announced that actress Rebecca Gibney would be hosting a revival of the program on Network 10, which premiered on 2 February 2026, which was simulcast on all four of Network 10 channels: 10, 10 Drama, 10 Comedy and Nickelodeon, the latter of which via the Nick@Nite block.
