I Can See Your Voice franchise

I Can See Your Voice is an American television mystery music game show series based on the South Korean program of the same name. It premiered on Fox on September 23, 2020,[1][2][3] and has been aired for three seasons.

Gameplay

[edit]

Format

[edit]

Presented with a group of six "mystery singers", a guest artist and contestant(s)[a] must attempt to eliminate bad singers from the group without ever hearing them sing, assisted by clues and a celebrity panel over the course of several rounds.[a] At the end of a game, the last remaining mystery singer is revealed as either good or bad by means of a duet between them and one of the guest artists.

The contestant must eliminate one mystery singer at the end of each round, receiving a petty cash[a] if they eliminate a bad singer. At the end of a game, the contestant may either end the game and keep the money they had won in previous rounds, or risk it for a chance to win $100,000 by correctly guessing whether the last remaining mystery singer is good or bad.

Rounds

[edit]

Lip sync rounds

[edit]

Each mystery singer performs a lip sync to a song; good singers mime to a recording of their own, while bad singers mime to a recording by someone else. At the conclusion of performances, the contestant(s) eliminate one mystery singer from each group.

Optionally, the contestant(s) may use the Golden Mic once during the game, in which they may hear additional clues and observations from a celebrity guest off-stage.

  • Lip Sync Challenge
s1: Divided into two groups of three mystery singers, each of them have to perform a lip sync of their own.
  • Lip Sync Showdown
s2–3: A pair of mystery singers perform a lip sync of their own through a showdown.

Evidence rounds

[edit]
  • Unlock my Life
s1–3: The guest artist and contestant(s) are presented with a video package containing possible clues by one of the mystery singers of their choice.
Introduced in the second and third seasons:[a]
  • A Day in the Life — The guest artist and contestant(s) are presented with a video package chronicling the daily lives by one of the mystery singers.
  • Secret Snoop — The guest artist and contestant(s) "tour" one of the mystery singer's homes for clues (which may include red herrings) for 60 seconds.
  • Super Fan — The guest artist and contestant(s) are presented with a video package featuring a "super fan" by one of the mystery singers.

Rehearsal round

[edit]
  • Secret Studio
s1: The guest artist and contestant(s) are presented with video from a recording session by one of the mystery singers of their choice, but pitch-shifted to obscure their actual vocals.

Interrogation round

[edit]
  • Interrogation
s1–3: The guest artist and contestant(s) may ask questions to the remaining mystery singers. Good singers are required to give truthful responses, while the bad singers must lie.

Background

[edit]

Production and development

[edit]

Fox first announced for a local adaptation of I Can See Your Voice during the Television Critics Association January 2020 press tour, with Ken Jeong (who serves as a panelist on The Masked Singer, a local adaptation of another South Korean program) hosting the pilot episode;[6] this was acquired by Fox for the rights to produce the said show a month later.[7]

The show's staff is managed by (the host himself) Jeong as a co-executive producer alongside with Craig Plestis (also the same role as The Masked Singer), and James McKinlay;[8] this was later assigned by Daniel Martin (for the third season, also as a showrunner).[9]

Filming

[edit]

Filming of the show took place at various locations, such as the Television City Studios in Hollywood, Los Angeles (from first to second season); and Trilith Studios in Fayetteville (for the third season).[10][11]

Usually, the program films standalone episodes and are not arranged in order, which would then randomly air during its designated season. This occurred in the first season when it completed a pilot episode before production was halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic,[12] and later resumed by Fox in August 2020 under implementing health and safety protocols, becoming one of the network's first non-scripted programs to do so.[13][14]

Broadcast history and release

[edit]

I Can See Your Voice debuted on September 23, 2020,[3] following a fourth season premiere of The Masked Singer.[1][2] In observance of Thanksgiving, a dedicated episode was aired on November 26, 2020.[15][16] Also, the penultimate episode (of a first season) that initially scheduled for December 2, 2020, was pre-empted by a second hour of its "Super Six" semi-final showdown;[17] it formally aired five days later.[18]

In January 2021, Fox renewed the series for a second season,[19] beginning with a Holiday Spectacular special on December 14, 2021, followed by regular episodes that began airing on January 5, 2022.[20][21] The "lost episode" featuring guest artist JoJo and contestant Dr. Dossier Harps aired as a special that concluded on June 26, 2022.[22][23]

During its upfronts for the 2022–23 television season in May 2023, Fox renewed the series for a third season,[24] with the first part premiere that initially scheduled for September 19, 2023,[25] was occupied by replays of 9-1-1: Lone Star amid the Hollywood labor disputes;[26] it formally aired on January 3, 2024,[9] followed by a second part that resumed on May 16, 2024.[27][28]

The program is aired by Fox in the United States and has been entirely simulcasted by Global TV in Canada.[29] Outside of North America, it has aired on 9Go! in Australia,[30] TVNZ 2 in New Zealand,[31] and WP Telewizja in Poland (as Śpiewają, czy udają?).[32] They are available for streaming through various video on demand services.[33][34]
