''Don't Forget the Lyrics!'' is a game show that originally aired on Fox from July 11, 2007 to June 19, 2009, hosted by Wayne Brady and produced by RDF USA, part of RDF Media. The launch of this show prompted NBC to move up the launch of their similar game show ''The Singing Bee''.〔(Karaoke Wars: NBC Rushes 'Singing Bee' - Show moved up to beat FOX's 'Lyrics' to air. ) Retrieved on 24 June 2007.〕 The show's contestants compete to win $1,000,000 by correctly recalling song lyrics from a variety of genres.〔(Fox Announces New Game Show "Don't Forget the Lyrics" ). Retrieved on 24 June 2007〕 After a year off the air, on January 25, 2010, 20th Television announced the debut of a new syndicated version with Sugar Ray lead singer Mark McGrath as host in September 2010. Taping of the show's third overall season, and first as a syndicated show, began on June 15, 2010. The show premiered in daytime syndication and in primetime on VH1 on Monday, September 20, 2010. It premiered in primetime on MyNetworkTV on October 5, 2010. On March 24, 2011, the show was canceled along with ''Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?'' due to low ratings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url = http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/465646-Syndication_Ratings_Oprah_Ratings_Dive_in_Post_Sweep_Repeats.php )〕 ==Overview== In this show, a single contestant is prompted to complete song lyrics for increasing amounts of money. After each correct answer, the contestant can continue playing, risking what has already been earned, or quit the game and take home all the money he or she has already earned. If the contestant continues playing and correctly completes nine song lyrics, he or she will be given a lyric from a number 1 hit to complete. If the contestant completes the final lyric correctly, he or she wins the grand prize, which was $1,000,000 on the Brady version, and is set to be $50,000 on the McGrath version. The primary difference between ''Don't Forget the Lyrics'' and other music-based game shows is that artistic talent (such as the ability to sing or dance in an aesthetically pleasing way) is irrelevant to the contestants' chances of winning. In the words of one of their commercials prior to the first airing, "You don't have to sing it well; you just have to sing it right." The producers of the show are RDF USA, Apploff Entertainment, and Brad Lachman Productions.〔(Wayne Brady to Host Fox's ''Don't Forget the Lyrics!'' Trivia Game Show ).
