What’s This TV Show About?
An interactive music game show airing on the FOX television network, the Beat Shazam TV series is usually hosted by Jamie Foxx while his daughter, Corinne Foxx, serves as the Deejay. While Jamie Foxx is recovering from an illness, Nick Cannon and Kelly Osbourne fill in. The competition features three teams of two players as they race against the clock, and each other, to identify song selections. During each round, the host presents a choice of two musical categories. The object is to be the first team to correctly identify the song’s title. While low-scoring teams are eliminated, the team which banks the most money will ultimately advance to compete against the Shazam app, for a chance to win a $1 million dollar prize. Season six includes special episodes featuring teachers, siblings, mothers, and others.
Season Six Ratings
The sixth season of Beat Shazam averaged a 0.22 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.13 million viewers in the live+same day ratings (includes all DVR playback through 3:00 AM). Compared to season five, that’s down by 38% in the demo and down by 38% in viewership. While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but the higher-rated series are usually renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how Beat Shazam stacks up against other FOX TV shows.
Beat Shazam has been renewed for a seventh season, which will debut on May 28, 2024. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will FOX cancel or renew Beat Shazam for season seven? The network has announced a new music guessing game, We Are Family, for fall, and it will star Jamie and Corrine Foxx. This new show could replace Beat Shazam, but there could also be room for both on the network. I was thinking that Jamie Foxx wouldn’t stay with both shows, but the ratings were nearly 40% lower this season with Cannon hosting. It doesn’t seem like these shows take a long time to film so Foxx could do both. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

What do you think? Are you glad the Beat Shazam TV show has been renewed for a seventh season? How would you feel if FOX had cancelled this TV series, instead?
What is going on with the music? The volume of the show is fine but when they start playing the music to guess the songs I can barely hear it. It was fine until season 6 when Nick Cannon hosted. Help, please!
Waiting to hear back as a contestant.
