It looks like FOX is stacking up on game shows once more after coming off of a lackluster year when
Bullseye, BOOM! and the revival of
Are You Smarter Than 5th Grader? all exited after their first seasons last summer. After ordering the American adaptation of
You’re Back In The Room late 2015, the network has picked a new music-based game show called
Beat Shazam. Like to
Name That Tune, the format has contestants attempt to identify a series of songs, similar to how the Shazam music app help users identify songs, titles and artists. The contestants who fare the best will have a chance to go head-to-head with the Shazam app itself for the show’s top prize.
Beat Shazam will be executive produced by Mark Burnett and Jeff Apploff (the same producer behind
Don’t Forget The Lyrics) with Shazam Entertainment Limited joining as a partner on the series. No word yet on a premiere date or when production begins.
