Broadcast
Initial and Remarkable Television for Channel 4, 1 August 2014 to present
Synopsis
Oh no, not another singing show.
But this one is different! Channel 4's press release promises "budding singers will perform live on a thoroughly unique 18m long moving stage while, using the ground-breaking app, armchair judges at home will be handed the reins to rate performances a 'hit' or a 'miss' and see the results play out just seconds later.
If judged a 'hit' the hopeful singer will move forward towards the Gold Zone at the front of the dynamic stage to continue their song. But if the majority of viewers judge them a 'miss' they're booted backwards off the track - and potentially out of the show."
So there will be no studio judges, just people at home pressing thumbs-up and thumbs-down. An exercise in true democracy, as not mediated by Simon Cowell.
