It's getting easier and easier to become a millionaire, thanks in part to Drew Carey and Wayne Brady, each of whom is getting his own game show, says Hollywood Reporter. Wayne Brady will host Fox's Don't Forget the Lyrics!, the karaoke show in which contestants sing along with a live band and a teleprompter until both stop and the singer has to go on a cappella and without lyrics. If the contestant can get through ten songs, he or she wins $1 million.

 

Drew Carey's show on CBS is called Power of 10, and sounds a bit like a more profitable Family Feud. "In Power," says HR, "contestants compete to accurately predict the results of nationwide surveys for a shot at $10 million grand prize that will be awarded to the person who correctly answers five questions." $10 million dollars for five questions? That seems like a bit much doesn't it? CBS should keep in mind that people will eat goat testicles on Fear Factor for a shot at a mere $50,000. They don't need to be giving away so much damn money for their easy-sounding game show.
