Game shows where contestants have to remember lyrics to songs seems to be the latest fad in prime time programming, at least starting in July on Fox and NBC. Seems like everyone wants to be star now...so the networks are giving folks the chance...at least temporarily to see how the audience responds.
NBC's new show will be called the "The Singing Bee" which is scheduled to debut on July 10 at 9:30 pm. Update: Former NSYNC member and finalist on "Dancing with the Stars" Joey Fatone has just been named host of the show being produced by Gurin Company and Juma Entertainment.
The show was originally scheduled to debut this Fall...but was moved up on the schedule to beat Fox's "Don't Forget the Lyrics" which debuts on July 11th.
All I can say, is "Name That Tune" baby!
