Because everything about the show is based on gut feel, there are no surefire bets, unless you personally know who the contestants are. Heck, we knew one of the contestants in the first episode (Ms. Okay Pines Whatever), but since Gary V. didn’t, he ended up eliminating her, and she turned out to be one heck of a singer.
Do you want a game show where nothing is set in stone? This is the one for you.
We don’t know what ABS-CBN changed up from the original South Korean show (we don’t watch it), but whatever it is, everything about the way they run the Filipino version feels right at home with our Pinoy sensibilities. Maybe it’s just the change of cast and the steady hand of Lucky Manzano directing the show’s traffic, but overall, we wouldn’t have guessed this was based on a different country’s original programming if we didn’t do our research.
Some of us have always been underwhelmed by Edu Manzano’s equally famous son, but here, he acquits himself very well as host. His rapport with the SING of the crime operatives is above par, and his ability to quip even at himself keeps the show light and breezy.
It also helps that nobody is denying that he can’t sing worth a damn, making him an easy target for even the contestants.
As of this writing, we’ve heard from several friends of ours how they’ve managed to find themselves on this show, whether or not they were actually singers. It may not have as many contestants as your average “Pera o Bayong” variant, but it gives ample face time to all six contestants per episode. If someone wanted to let the world know that they can (or can’t) sing, “I Can See Your Voice” seems like one of the best platforms to get that point across.
