Moroccan actress Maisa Moghrabi presents "The Millionaire" on Dubai TV, which is basically a replica of the popular game show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" hosted by Lebanese George Kardahi.

Maisa’s version features six contestants, one of whom gets the opportunity to face Maisa's questions to win the jackpot, and, you know, change their lives.

According to Sayidaty.net, "The Millionaire" is in many ways a spitting image of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" with slight changes in the number of contestants and manner of asking questions.

Maisa had tried hard to imitate George's style in presenting the show by tricking and scaring contestants, but the excitement hasn’t full carried over to the new version. In one of the episodes, Maisa lost the ability to keep the audience interested with a rather dull presentation that was more appropriate for a weather report than an edge of your seat game show. The starlet was criticized for being unable to keep up with George’s caliber.
