It's probably hiding in your Prime Video profile, but I promise that 007: Road to a Million season 2 is now available to stream. The premise is simple: contestants are coupled up (mother and son, spouses, childhood friends, you know the drill) and are set a series of James Bond-like challenges across the world in order to win up to £1 million. Like classic game shows such as Jeopardy! you can secure lower amounts of money each time you pass a task. The only difference is, however, you're probably dangling off a cable car up a mountain while you're doing it.
Season 1 came out around the same time as Netflix's Squid Game: The Challenge (which is also coming back for a second season soon), but the two couldn't have had more different trajectories. While the Squid Game competition received global promotion and acclaim – once people got over the idea that cashing in on a concept that killed people for money was ironic – 007: Road to a Million vanished into thin air. Frankly, I'm surprised it was commissioned for another season, and I didn't even know it was coming back.
