Netflix's Building the Band introduces a unique format to reality singing competitions. Without conventional structures, the show features 50 singers in shipping containers who evaluate each other's auditions. Contestants can express their preference by liking others, fostering a collaborative environment. Hosted by AJ McLean from the Backstreet Boys and mentored by Nicole Scherzinger, the show diverges from norms by delaying group performances until later in the season, allowing contestants to influence their potential success. This innovative approach creates a compelling viewing experience.
The show puts 50 singers in little neon shipping containers, where they listen to the other contestants' auditions and evaluate the voices of their peers.
Their point person is Backstreet Boy AJ McLean, who tallies likes early on and becomes a guardian angel in the show's back half.
The show doesn't have a conventional structure because they're not approaching it conventionally, with groups not performing in front of an audience until more than halfway through.
Building the Band putting so much faith in its contestants to determine their fate keeps it compelling from the jump.
