Don't Forget the Lyrics!

... But I agree with other reviews that this seems way too staged. The "audience" seems to be the same audience for every episode, and Niecy's outfits change very little, like they filmed all episodes in 24 hours. Hence, Niecy's gravelly voice. Good song variety though.

I love music. I love game shows. I watched the hell out of Niecy on Claws. I figured it had to be great. Nope. The contestants are annoying and over the top. Niecy seems like she's yelling all the time and has so little personality. The over dramatization with the extra long pausing gets really old really fast. I keep watching it but I definitely am annoyed the entire time.

The show can be a 3 or a 7, depending on the contestant. Some are very entertaining and others are just annoying.

My biggest issue though is that they don't seem consistent in the difficulty level of the words that are missing. Sometimes contestants get mostly missing words from the chorus or just parts of the song that are the first ones to pop into your head as soon as someone mentions the song.

Then other contestants will get song after song where the missing words are from a much more obscure part of the songs. Parts where most people, when they sing along, either mumble or hum.

There have been multiple times where early on it is obvious they are lobbing softballs at a contestant and that the contestant will get to 100,000 or 150,000 before they give them a difficult one. It is as if they decide 'this contestant is going to do well'.

I love game shows and music so I was looking forward to watching this. The contestant seemed too perfectly polished. Very good singing voice and didn't break a sweat or seem nervous in the least. I won't be watching this thing again.

The singing is worse than it should be and the host raspy voice sounds like they smoke 10 packs a day. It irritates me to hear them speak. Get someone that is actually funny and has a pleasant voice please!
