And the show has another trump card: music. OK, it’s pop music, but

that’s such a huge mansion that it contains some rooms everyone is

music is so deep in our cultural DNA that we’re all experts. We may

not all know how to write or produce a hit song, like the judges, but

we all have an almost infinite resource of pop-music memories to draw

on.

I’ve found myself drawn into the show for the first time this year too.
