There were a couple of reality game shows too. I think one was called “The Sing Off.” Ben Folds was one of the judges.

I did a cappella in high school, if that counts.
...Actually probably about to start directing it for the high school soon, too.

It seems like something the entertainment industry wanted to be a hot fad, but it never caught on.

It was huge on college campuses for the better part of the aughts.

I know a kabillion millennials who did a capella.
the problem is, there's this weird culture around doing all you can in the arrangements and in the studio to make none of it actually sound like a capella. It renders itself pointless.
Now, doo wop, that's got a point. Whatever genre it is that Ladysmith Black Mambazo is, that's got a point. But a capella on college campuses weirdly has no interest in not just sounding like every other pop song.

"Even if Yella, makes it acapella". Words to live by.

Theres something a bit too inherently dorky about it, like being on the debate club.

I was in a few of them in college. Actually was in a group that only had one public performance and it just stopped. And I was in a barbershop choir, which I did love. Though, naturally, everyone around me was like 45 or older. The old choir director kept trying to get me to recruit younger members but I suck at recruiting. But I have good memories of it.
