Secrets and Surprises (10 p.m., ABC) - Hard to believe it has been 20 years since “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” debuted on ABC, taking the world by storm, and Regis Philbin (God love him) made “Is that your final answer?” part of the American vernacular. Tonight’s look back at the show includes rares interviews with Philbin, the show’s original host, and with former host Meredith Vieira. We also get an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, who will host a limited series of celebrity “Millionaire” shows this month.
