The weirdest one sounds like the mystery guest segment on What's My Line, only the mystery guests are the ones who are blindfolded, not the panel. And the guests sing instead of talking in strange accents. The show's title is The Masked Singer, and it features Grammy winners and other celeb warblers doing karaoke for a panel of Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy, Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke.
The celebs wear elaborate costumes including silly masks, and the panel tries to guess who they are. It's based on what we're assured is a "hugely popular" Korean format, and Nick Cannon hosts. Whatever it may be, The Masked Singer debuts next January.
Then there's Spin the Wheel, with Justin Timberlake as one of the showrunners. It's supposed to be Wheel of Fortune with trivia questions instead of word puzzles. How that works, I'm not sure. We do know there's a $20 million top prize, which beats Wheel by a lot. Dax Shepard will host, and there's no debut date yet.
Finally, Rob Lowe is producing and hosting Mental Samurai, where contestants solve puzzles while getting whirled around the stage. Sounds dizzying, but I just have to watch and review the show, not compete on it.
