There isn't a single person on the panel who I think has a redeeming quality... but I might give this a cursory watch just because it's so different... on the DVR... which I can FF thru.

I like Ken Jeong and don't mind Nicole Scherzinger. Not so much the other 2.
This looks ridiculous, I'll watch it.

Looks worth a glance, but if they wait until the very end to reveal each singer ...

Pure crap and something that would have aired on FOX in the late 90's or early 2000's.

It's cute but the guessing segments are brutal. I did enjoy the judges being surprised as anyone that it kind of works.
The unicorn needs to be Kaitlin Olson after the bird comment.
Probably dickish, but i really want to see one of them fall.
