Disney has had great success with music competition series such as \u201cAmerican Idol\u201d and it is once again looking to this format for a new show for ABC.<\/p>\n

Deadline<\/a> has reported that ABC has ordered a new proof-of-concept taping of \u201cWho\u2019s In The Band\u201d which is a talent search for the next \u201cOne Direction\u201d or \u201cLittle Mix\u201d.<\/p>\n

Simon Cowell will be a judge on the panel, along with Joe Jonas, Mel B, and songwriter Savan Kotecha. To tap into the success of the Netflix hit, KPop Demon Hunters, Rei Ami, will be hosting the show.<\/p>\n

The official description for the taping states:<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to note that this proof-of-concept taping for \u201cWho\u2019s In The Band\u201d isn\u2019t going to be broadcast, as it\u2019s an early test to see if it\u2019ll work, before they then make any tweaks or changes needed to turn it into a real show. Should the test shoot go well, hopefully, this could be a potential new addition to ABC\u2019s roster of shows, that also get released on Hulu and Disney+.<\/p>\n

Roger\u2019s Take: Having a new music competition series doesn\u2019t necessarily sound anything too exciting and bringing in already established judges from other shows doesn\u2019t exactly feel fresh. Personally, I think they need something different, as the idea of finding the next pop band feels like something from decades ago, rather than a concept for a new generation of fans.<\/p>\n
