Name That Tune

The original was a very good show, if this wasn't on Fox, it would probably be better. It is extremely over produced and the audience is as bad as an infomercial audience.

The concept of a game show centered around naming a song can be great. The execution in this show was awful. The audience is very fake with how excited they get, and the attempts at building suspense are laughable. The hostess is also laughably bad.

Their first season that was shot in Australia was the best, mostly because the band they put together was really good. Much of the band changed in the later seasons and never was as impressive.

Jane and Randy seemed to have more fun in the first season. Having random prizes early on was fun and the goofy way the band would sing the prize was entertaining.

Sometimes I wish the bid-a-note section didn't have such giveaway clues so that people were actually guessing it based off of the notes more. It frequently happens that the person that isn't good at guessing from the music is better at guessing from the clues so they win that section and we end up with the weakest contestant for the final round.

It would be nice if they made sure they had a wide variety of music each time too. Because it is easy for them to do more songs that are old or more that are new and whichever contestant is more familiar with that genre will always win.

Get off the "overproduced" bandwagon and watch this show. Talented people playing and singing the songs and Jane picks up right where she left off on 30 Rock, she's the perfect host for this show. It's fun for the whole family.

This show is so bad in every imaginable way. So, you either get angry and shut it off, or you can laugh at the audience overreacting to every little thing, the heart pounding music, the horrible hosts, and total over production. If you are looking for a proper show, you will be disappointed.
