The Singing Bee (2007, 2009– ) is a music game show that aired on NBC for two seasons and was later revived by CMT in 2009. Contestants on the series follow the rules of a typical spelling bee, except instead of spelling words, they'll be singing popular songs. If they get a line wrong, then they're out while their opponents move up in the ranks. It premiered only a day earlier than Don't Forget the Lyrics!, a similar show on FOX. The CMT version features a new host, Melissa Peterman replacing Joey Fatone, and a focus more on country songs.
