Two more differences between Millionaire and The Voice: Millionaire ran 5 nights a week and The Voice will run 1 and maybe 2 nights a week where there are eliminations. And Millionaire had no arc; every show had a series of new contestants. The Voice will follow teams and eventually a small number of singers week after week. -- TV or Not TV ....
