The first change to summer is in.
After Sunday night’s atrocious performance by Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader? (US) on TEN, it has been pulled.
From this Sunday TEN will screen Don’t Forget the Lyrics instead.
We’re going from one American game show to another. Maybe it will sync better with Glee given the musical link. Still, Glee only has two more episodes before it begins its extended break (it isn’t back in the US until April).
That puts Lyrics on both Saturdays and Sundays at 6:30pm, with its first one due this Saturday.
While we’re on the subject, Nine still has some unaired Singing Bee….
i love your show
nan and i love to sing we know the songs ok if you what to u can let come on your show
This American gameshow won’t do any better than the last American game show. They should be screening the Merlin repeats in this slot.
I don’t really want to watch American quiz shows of any type.
there is no interest for me in seeing American,Brits,french or Swedes win money or answer questions mainly about their own country.
I love Don’t Forget the Lyrics. It’s a bit of fun and Wayne Brady is a great host.
I stil want ANTM … just putting it out there if you’re listening Channel Ten.
Don’t Forget the Lyrics is appalling TV … come on Ten, Glee deserves a much cooler intro
They should’ve just slotted in this week’s ep of Glee in case some people didn’t see it due to the new day. As for The (Celebrity?) Singing Bee I would’ve thought Nine would burn off unaired eps during summer. They probably will if Survivor: Samoa or something else tanks in their schedule.
Quick before someone else starts the facebook page
It’s A Knockout would be great to have back, even if it was repeats. Go Blue!
I put my vote down for It’s a Knockout – puh-lease!
I for one think this is a good idea. In the first summer Ten ran Lyrics it rated so well they brought it back during the ratings period (although it didn’t do so well there), but perhaps with weaker competition it will do okay.
Yeah Yeah – bring back Its a Knockout…. Loved it.
What about running old eps of YTT or Its a Knockout then relaunching it as a new series in the new year
Won’t be suprised if Lyrics doesn’t rate as well as US Are you smarter than a 5th grader did.
and next week i think we will be seeing
gone dont forget the lyrics
Is it at least new episodes of manure?
Replacing crap with manure. Smart move.
Looks like Wipeout on GO will beat Ten 6.30 Sunday again.
another stupid move by ten!! how about merlin, recruits repeats for 6.30 sun
At least the songs on Don’t Forget the Lyrics are more universal than the intricacies of US government structure.
It should have been Merlin or Glee repeats though.
I’ll try and look shocked…
Didn’t Lyrics rate at the 300k mark the last time it aired in primetime? :-/
Well that’s not Suprising.
That’s a sting in the tail… Especially as Nine has Singing Bee!
