Shows: Celebrity Duets
In the vein of American Idol (in fact, it looks like they use the same stage) comes Celebrity Duets. Each week, a celebrity - typically an actor - is teamed up with a singer to perform a song. Then they perform and are given a review by a panel of judges. At the end of the show, votes are taken to determine a winner among the performers from that show, and the next week the process continues until there is a winner.
The show is entertaning and the performances aren't bad. But the judges are a bit wacky. Little Richard, especially, just seems like he is in a different world. He refers to himself in the third person and makes statements that just make you wonder if he is even paying attention to what is going on in front of him or if he's just there for the paycheck. I don't think anyone has to worry about this taking over their timeslot, but if you've got a few minutes to kill (and any kind of device that lets you fast-forward through the junk), it might be worth watching.
