competition format. This time four hosts: an American singer and actress Kelly Brianne Clarkson, a nine Grammy Awards winner John "Legend" Roger Stephens, a singer and musician Robin Charles Thicke and an American country music artist Jennifer Nettles will compete in a quite unusual way. Their aim is to outrun the rivals by winning a song contest of duets. Each duet will consist of host itself and a partner they have to find. And all the intriguing things are starting here: Clarkson, Thicke, Legend and Nettles will travel USA to find the talents on which they would be totally dependent during the series run. As Clarkson said in the first interview as the host of Duets: "The simple fact that I get to go out and find two people I believe in, sing with them every week and help them accomplish their dream is an amazing thing I can't wait to be a part of". Well, we have to hope that the sharp-cut and unordinary idea of Duets will be implemented in the best way with all the fans of American Idol getting the new exciting show to watch instead. Even more, now you have a strong reason to sing at public places hoping John Legend is somewhere nearby to hear and pick you. Because the prize is really great: a contract with Hollywood Records for a winning duo that certainly worth most hardest efforts.

What does it take to convince twenty four hopeful contestants to risk life and limb to compete for a prize of $50,000? This reality show is fast paced and looks to be extremely painful for some who slip, get knocked down, or otherwise bruised and mangled while running through the obstacles presented on Wipeout each week. As the competitions numbers are whittled down we find just how far some will go to win 50K. The games begin with twenty four and cut that number in half by competing against each other and the clock that stops for no man. The Qualifier Round, which has four obstacles to win over, will cull the slower and less lucky while the second round pares the numbers down to six. Then those who remain must face the final round and that changes each season with each being more challenging than the season before. Traversing some obstacles are easier than others but may require quicker times. Some may even be skipped entirely but that contestant will lose a certain amount of time. Taped in Canyon Country in Santa Clarita, California at the Sable Ranch, which is forty miles north of Los Angeles, hosts Jill Wagner, John Anderson, and John Henson keep the competition running as smoothly as possible.

Trivia games have long been popular and fairly easy to answer for many of us. Enter the NBC game show variety of trivia titled Who's Still Standing? Now the idea of this fun filled new show is that losing answers will result in that contestant falling from the audience sight by a hole in the floor opening up and seemingly swallowing up that poor loser. Imagine how much fun that is! And where do the go? Evidently we, the home viewing audience, will never know exactly what happens once the incorrect answer results in that poor schmuck dropping from sight. Do they drop down to another level and join an ever increasing population of losers? Do they fall into some deep labyrinth and float away into oblivion? Who knows"¦. and who cares? They simply lost. Now we watch in anticipation to see who will fail and fall next. This game show concept could actually work out, at least until we viewers wish that we ourselves could drop out of the competition so quickly because we've become addicted to the trivia questions while we just keep on answering one after another. Try it! It is absolutely addictive!
