Peanuts Night

After an amazing episode with Miley Cyrus Night last week, it was time for the Group C Finals! In the months leading up to this episode, I had been led to believe that this episode was going to have a generic theme of Thanksgiving. This did not surprise me, as Thanksgiving was a theme night they had done back in Season 8, though it was a little disappointing that they were ending the theme nights with a theme that wasn’t much of a theme. When a listing for the episode was released a few weeks ago, it didn’t even acknowledge that there was any sort of theme to the episode, which I found very surprising. During Miley Cyrus Night last week, they made an announcement that I did not see coming, which was that the episode was going to be Peanuts Night. I quickly found out what that meant, as they aired a trailer for it right after the episode ended, and I saw that all the Peanuts characters were going to be part of it in the form of giant costumes worn by people. This was one of the first su...

Miley Cyrus Night

After an amazing start to Group C last week with Who Are You Fest, it was time to see them again in Miley Cyrus Night! I was looking forward to this episode, as all the other episodes centered around the music of a specific artist have all been good, and I knew there were four great singers in the episode. I also thought it was great that the show was doing a theme night for Miley Cyrus, as it shows that she has reached the status of other artists they have had entire nights for like ABBA, Elton John, Billy Joel, and Queen.  The episode started off with a group performance from all four Group C contestants singing “Party in the USA.” I was a bit surprised that there was a group performance in this episode, as they typically have those in the Group Finals, but I still enjoyed it, as it let all four contestants, who are all singers, have a chance to stand out together and show off their own unique vocal abilities.  The first performer of the night was Sherlock Hound. In his clue...

Who Are You Fest

After an amazing return last week with 60s Night, it was time to finally meet Group C in Who Are You Fest! I was excited to meet the last five contestants, as since we were with each group for three weeks each, it almost felt like a new season when we met the next group, especially since Group A first arrived in September, Group B first arrived in October, and Group C first arrived in November. I was also intrigued by what the performances would be in this episode, as it was announced that it would be songs by artists who have performed at music festivals. When the episode got closer, I found that the contestants for the most part had chosen random songs, which I thought was great, as it meant the contestants would be performing songs that they were comfortable with. There wasn’t much of a big intro to this episode, as it was just Nick introducing each of the panelists one by one, and from there we met the first performer of the night, which was Royal Knight. Her Masked Ambassador was ...

60s Night

After a great episode with Barbie Night, a week off due to the World Series, and the most stressful election in recent times, it was time for 60s Night on The Masked Singer! With how the election turned out, I’m sure you can all agree that The Masked Singer is something that is desperately needed at this time. I was also looking forward to this episode, as it’s not that common that a contestant sings an older song, so I was interested in seeing what songs they would go for.  The episode started off the same way as many other Group Finals in recent seasons, which is a group performance with the remaining three contestants in the group. I always enjoy group performances, as it lets the contestants stand out together. They also performed “Fun, Fun, Fun” by The Beach Boys, which is somehow the first song by The Beach Boys that has ever been performed on the show. Nick also mentioned that the Ding Dong Keep It On Bell was still in play for this episode, and I had a feeling that it was g...
