While the traditional ratings have dropped quite a bit since this show became a hit in 2019, The Masked Singer has remained one of FOX’s highest-rated shows. Is there a chance that the series will be cancelled or is it sure to be renewed for season 10? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.
A mystery singing competition series, The Masked Singer TV show is hosted by Nick Cannon with Jenny McCarthy, Nicole Scherzinger, Ken Jeong, and Robin Thicke sitting on the judges’ panel. The show features singing celebrities facing off against one another with one major twist — each contestant is covered from head to toe in an elaborate costume, complete with a full face mask to conceal his or her identity. With each performance, the host, panelists, audience, viewers — and even the other contestants — are left guessing who is singing behind the mask. In season nine, the costumed characters will take part in themed episodes including Opening Night, ABBA, New York, DC Superhero, Sesame Street, 80s Night, Country, Movie Night, and Space. Guests this season include Damar Hamlin and Jennifer Nettles.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances of survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

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 typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.

This show has gone down hill with the level of talent. Not sure how some of the acts make it to the finals. This was my last season watching. The best acts did not make it to the finals, so I’m cutting this season short and not tuning in for the finals. I was a big fan but this show has become boring and the talent suspect. Pitty votes seem to overshadow talent.
I’m kinda bored of the over done over produced and decidedly overly acted panel on this show. Its clear for all to see why Jenny M never had an acting career, why Ken J shouldn’t have had one, and why that other fellow has pretty much had one hit song. The mystery remains though why Nicole hasn’t made more of her amazing vocal abilities. Anyways, yes, its time they refreshed this panel, i’m so done with the over acting faux who are they, i can’t even guess, take it off take it off thing…. its time for something new in… Read more »
