The Masked Singer

Earlier this week, the local morning news show that I watch had a segment on the new show "The Masked Singer" and I was... intrigued. So, I went looking online and found the first three episodes. Started watching, but after the first singer took the stage, I stopped, because I realized this was something rackham would probably enjoy as well. And I was ( Read more... )

I suspect that you won't be able to watch on the Fox website, but definitely take a look out on Youtube if you get the chance (assuming they don't block you there, too). At least at a few of the performances. I love some the masks and costumes they've come up with.

It's supposed to be available on Hulu but I don't know if that is also in the UK

Thanks so much for mentioning this show! I watched the first episode with much trepidation... and nearly yelled "Donny!" out loud, startling my son (who's almost 40, so it really wasn't a big deal **grins**)

I also called Cheech, 'cause I thought Tommy Chong would have been taller, but at least I was in the right ball field. Call it a 'neighborhood play on the field'.

Oh yeah... Margaret Cho blew me away... who knew she could sing?

Just happily looking forward to more episodes and hoping the show will continue for quite a while.

I'm about 95% sure the Bee is Gladys Knight. Not only does it sound like her, all the clues match up -- and the bee mask put me in mind of Utah, where she now lives.

Oh yeah, and did you know Ryan Reynolds was on the original Masked Singer series in South Korea?

I didn't! I actually didn't even know there was another version of it until Ken Jeong mentioned it on one of the recent shows (his mother is apparently a fan), although the premise makes a whole lot more sense now.

Okay, I just went looking for some of the other contestants and discovered that one of them was Ken Jeong! And whoa... he can sing! I'm starting to wonder if there is anything he can't do!

I'd laugh for days if one of the contestants were Weird Al Yankovic playing it totally straight -- he has a chameleon-like voice and could probably keep people guessing right to the end.

Finally had a chance to watch last week's show... I'm sort of stunned I was right about Tori Spelling!

After reading your comment about peacock.... you might be right it might be Donny Osmond. *shrugs* It's a puzzle.
