i don't think i've ever felt so infatuated with a celebrity, but darren checks off all the boxes haha. love the competitive spirit

[@Ryan-om5yi]

Yeah he's gorgeous and a genuinely nice guy.

[@lauralockman8472]

I so love him I saw him in hedwig and the angry inch 6 times I saw host a Broadway show and I saw him at his Elsie fest concert twice

[@caitlin_cataldo]

literally me too

[@heartw.2222]

Thx so much for putting this on here for us to watch. Of course Darren was amazing at all these music games... he's an expert at all kinds of music across different genres. "YOU'RE still the one", Darren!😅

[@bymilliebphotography8249]

Wow, the band and the vocalists are fantastic!!!! Jane is ageless...how the heck does she look BETTER than ever?!? Not sure if Randy re-styled all the music for the game show, but it was amazing!!!

[@myothercarisadelorean8957]

Is it just me or does Randy Jackson look like a Disneyland animatronic?

[@thisguy73]

if he stands next to his wax museum randy jackson they would be twins

[@amymardis9262]

I can’t unsee it now 🤣

[@jeniestra.]

Ok, I didn't know about this show and I love Mel and Darren. The musicians are amazing.

[@sgd.6830]

Darren is a walking talking juke box

[@shinobuchan]

Omg that is insane, Darren you killed it 😍😍😍

[@crystalmorrison1616]

Randy looks like AI

[@stabithatv]

I was literally gonna say that

[@ArtByDesign80]

YES!

[@jaqenhghar2446]

It's his hair. Looks like it's painted on his scalp.

[@diannaw3034]

I was looking for this comment!!!!! He looks soooo unreal it's so startling!! Between.. the hair.. and the weight loss.. he's a completely different person than we knew from American Idol!! I mean I am happy to see him with this gig.. but it's just a bit shocking. Also.. have they altered the sound on the mics.. because the guest and Jane's voice all sound auto tuned or AI in some way. It's just a bit uncomfortable to listen to. 😯😳🙄😬 Now ... on the other hand.... Darren Criss is super impressive .. and killed it!! 🥳

[@jessbrndtta9729]

he looks like a cartoon

[@lanceschmidt28]

Whenever I see Jane Krakowski, I think of her incredible role of Jaqueline on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. LMAO.

[@jamesabesamis]

You clearly never watched Ally McBeal😂😂😂

[@charlotted1321]

darren built a career on covers, clearly attuned his ear 😂

[@mitchellmcdonagh3615]

Randy looking like a thunderbirds puppet at this point

[@willcaminada]

Mel could've at least gotten the Uptown Funk one, c'mon! 😆😆

[@Barbara-jq2se]

Way to go Darren!!! Yay! 👏

[@colindeshotel7154]

I just listened to it was fantastic

[@talon3684]

Mel C looks even more fine then back in her early Sporty Spice days. She was my first favorite Spice Girl back in the day

[@bsbnktob76]

Mine too :)

[@Lillie655]

LOVE Darren Criss ❤️❤️

[@antzieisme]

Darren looks just like the cartoon prince Eric!!!

[@musicalwheels]

thats what i thought! when TLM came out i was like umm they shouldve called Darren

[@DrAndyShick]

Fun fact: Mel was 49 years old during this

[@lauralockman8472]

Omg he’s amazing

[@ArtByDesign80]

Why does Randy Jackson look like an animatronics…or a character from LazyTown?

[@robrichpo]

Or a ventriloquist doll.

[@creativemindplay]

He suffered an undisclosed illness a little while back.

[@denniswinters2541]

I thought it was Sammy Davis Jr

[@jeniestra.]

Oh my God, not Lazy Town 😂.

[@Raesling1]

I thought it was a Funko Pop version of him. It's creepy, though. Uncanny Valley.

[@kevinwillcocks8734]

Randy look sick

[@Konsker]

love mel c's voice

[@dapikafreak6340]

darren killed it in the show

[@paulcanaday-elliott9834]

Love that he played for Planned Parenthood.

[@יובלקונסקר]

big fan of mel c's voice

[@armincagoodwin367]

I love this show new or old.

[@CatLady-be9tn]

I rooted for Mel C

[@LSFD]

1:11 he had light hair color, than in 2:11 I'm intrigue by Randy

[@CesarCuriel15]

Meeeel ❤

[@AlexLeKr]

What is the purpose of the robot with piano saying random phrases?

[@musicalwheels]

?

[@loulou3000]

Cud have guessed uptown funk in no notes from the clue

[@LillyJones-je8yg]

Was very surprised they didn’t pick up on Love will tear us apart quicker

[@GoldenLight22]

I can't believe how different Randy Jackson looks, I didn't even recognize him

[@christopherwong1895]

Randy Jackson doesn’t look real 😮

[@PandaPowerable]

The pianist looks like a puppet from Thunderbirds🤣

[@musicalwheels]

thats randy jackson ...

[@SurahOnline]

That’s exactly what I was thinking lol

[@AbcXyz-lv5iv]

Wtf! Is that the real Randy Jackson or it's someone wearing a mask? It doesn't look like human skin.

[@abogadoarauz]

Now ally’s brooke chapther pleaseeeeeee❤

[@watchtell2801]

This was not a fair match, of course Darren was gonna win

[@Emma-wm9jg]

why? they're both in the music industry, melanie for longer lol

[@whoiam4428]

It's pretty fair as they're both singers. Mel C just couldn't keep up as she only knew older music 😀

[@jollyfighter7319]

@@whoiam4428Crazy thing to say that. She’s also a dj

[@dominichenry7724]

What goin on with Randy Jackson he looks ill

[@shawnuel]

When a musical theater kid tries to pronounce Joy DiVISion

[@anaporras6351]

he was on Glee for a reason🤣

[@brownstone426]

Randy looks like the Little Penny doll

[@anhonestlife380]

Is this the MU23 stage?

[@CamerasSmilesLove]

I cannot be the only one who think R andy is extremely robotic on this show!!! Hmmm....

[@noronhasullivan]

Why does Randy look like a cross between a puppet and an android?

[@sumimizoue7005]

Wow, I thought it was Randy Jackson. He looks great with the significant weight loss. He looks fine!!!

[@blue-chaos96striker72]

I knew it was uptown funk with just 2 notes.

[@deadlybug]

Then go on the show

[@mqtie]

why is randy's hair painted on like a ventriloquist dummy?

[@LKKSProductions]

That clue for uptown funk was too obvious I thought it was a misdirect

[@shannonmccarthy3461]

Wasn’t Darren’s show j😊😊😊American Horror story. Not American Crime story?!

[@rachf]

He made a brief appearance on American Horror Story: Hotel, but he played the main character in the second season of American Crime Story

[@hatman_vl8156]

Randy looks like robot /clone sad af

[@DrAndyShick]

I knew the Uptown Funk one in ZERO notes

[@kellynelson6741]

Dang Darren

[@karenroseberry1361]

I didn't know that they had Name That Tune again . I used to watch the original version.

[@henrychuailou9357]

They literally sing them and u have to guess its bullshit ...its just only if u don't know that song at all only u get wrong

[@musicalwheels]

huh?

[@joagargo01]

What happened to Randy Jackson? He looks like an animatronic figure!!!

[@raynemichelle2996]

the clues make it so easy. Lots of English representation in the songs, so Mel C couldve done better

[@BerZ3rker360]

Rnady looks like a ventriloquist puppet

[@crystalmorrison1616]

Every part of Randy lost weight except his eyes

[@laniharris2038]

Came after dish nation

[@danabrennan628]

I had to stop watching because Randy looks so emaciated, it was sickening to me. Is he going through chemo ?

[@briany7658]

I agree. He looks so different from his days on American Idol. He's lost so much weight that he looks sickly.

[@TheMoggFREE]

I think he got healthier?

[@LKKSProductions]

I didn’t process who that was until now. Oh my gosh, I mean, I don’t think he looks bad but definitely different

[@jcox8418]

He almost looks fake. I can’t say it’s just weight loss because I genuinely don’t remember much of how he looked before. He just looks off.

[@whoiam4428]

I was also shocked seeing him looking so sickly thin. Google says he has type 2 diabetes and underwent gastric bypass surgery to lose weight.

[@Caprizonica]

Ok, but they're putting songs they did in Glee, mostly. Not fair to Mel C.

[@GalaxyLiveMusic]

So we in a toilet watching this???

[@xlunelitex]

Yes.

[@xandruuh]

Why is Melanie even here??? Hahahahahhaha

[@chaoscrayon]

Is Randy Jackson AI? He looks fake......

[@kamuking8177]

Randy Jackson looks fake lol

[@hankschraderontheshitter5593]

man, Randy Jackson looks like a real life marionette

[@jwlez2814]

"ray-gay-tow"

[@jamesbernardino4264]

LOL! That’s how Jackie Lynn would say it, but I bet Jacqueline would’ve said it properly. Lol

[@blue-chaos96striker72]

Usa salsa is nothing like real latin salsa.

[@amh4714]

Am I the only one who really finds the host irritating? 😬 it's just so robotic idk..

[@onthegreenintwo]

Randy looks like an AI insert or a bobble head…. Wtf!!!

[@Strimbles]

Randy looks weird af !!!

[@marquepoolejewer9427]

🎉😅

[@AdamTheProwler]

Randy Jackson looks like a puppet. WTF?

[@slimc3769]

This painfully lazy, and just bad editing for a show. Also, so robotic like they are all just reading their lines. This show looks terrible.. but always good to see my fav spice girl Mel C.

[@whoiam4428]

Yeah Randy Jackson looks and sounds like an AI 😂

[@Ashtonirwinfan21]

@@whoiam4428please do Taylor Hanson episode 😊

[@kategleeson3010]

Is this satire?

[@Sharyk808]

OMG!! What happened to Randy? He looks like a skeleton. 🫣🫢 Eat something.

[@annmariemcleod6670]

OK first time watching this show and I love it. But what in the world happened to Randy? He looks like he is fake like he is made of plastic

[@LSFD]

This game was awful they already started singing the song...

[@melindayang4718]

Lol…i can’t play this game…give me classical, musical theater and opera music. I’m not one for the radio or pop culture music

[@yeahnoonecaresifyouarefirst]

Is it me or is the audio weird? How sad that darren is pro death...... Def lost my membership as a fan

[@SamanthaDiane]

The audio is complete trash. The left and the right channels are out of sync. Complete unwatchable if you have high quality headphones. Bummer.

[@ashleyhall6098]

He's devastated I assure you lmao

[@jeniestra.]

He is pro choice, he won't know you left. Good riddance.

[@ashleydaniels4091]

I'm sorry you have bad taste in human rights.

[@TheJedikai]

There's no effing way. Mel c is the winner

[@monrotel]

Love Darrin dislike his charity

[@floriancailler1493]

Pathetic game

[@danitydon22]

rigged!

[@krasimiryanev4682]

This is so F scripted! Like camoooon.....lmao

[@dap4321]

That last clue was a give away

[@williamrobert3097]

I came for my Queen Mel C 🫶🏼🫶🏼❤️❤️❤️ But this show is so rigged

[@whoiam4428]

I thought the same 🤔

[@stephaniel2850]

Lol, nah, as a long time fan of Darren's, I promise you, he truly does just have an insane capacity for musical knowledge! He's basically made his living off of doing the "human jukebox" thing - I'd have been very impressed if anyone could beat him at this game :)

[@CatLady-be9tn]

Nah. It's rigged.

[@ctvelcalzon77]

No. Actually MC is quite not good at this game. You can check out VOGUE name that tune

[@jeniestra.]

Hahaha Darren is low-key a musical genius.
