NBC has a new singing competition, but it's different than the rest. The Winner Is is the only competition where singing just six songs can win a contestant one million dollars. The series is a mix of both a singing competition as well as a game show. During the rounds, contestants have a choice to take smaller amounts of cash or to continue on and hope to win a spot in the finale and a chance at the million.

The Winner Is is hosted by Nick Lachey. NBC will air sneak peeks of the series on Mondays, June 10 and June 17, with the series premiering on July 11, and subsequent episodes airing on Thursdays.

Lachey recently talked to the media in anticipation of the new competition coming to NBC.

Revolution follows what happens when the power goes out and people are left for years with no electricity. The country goes into chaos and Sebastian Monroe (David Lyons) and his militia take over to create the world that they want, which is a bleak, tyrannical society. Originally Monroe and his best friend Miles Matheson, played by The Twilight Saga's Billy Burke, set out to make a better world, but Miles jumped ship early on and now fights against Monroe's regime with the help of other members of the resistance.

Last week, at the end of the last episode before the season one finale, Miles and Monroe stood at gunpoint. Miles had the opportunity before to kill his ex-friend and couldn't do it. Will he pull the trigger tonight, or will Monroe finish it?

Last week Burke talked to the digital media about the season finale of Revolution, which airs tonight on NBC.

The Voice is down to its top ten contestants, who will compete again this week in live shows. Looking for some inside scoop, we caught up with Michael Austin, the country artist eliminated from Team Adam during the battle rounds.

Austin knew before his blind audition that he wanted to work with Maroon 5 singer Adam Levine. "I just wanted to try something different and think outside the box," he explained, "and I figured I had the best shot at doing that with Adam. I really wanted to see how far he'd go or what his ideas on a country song would be."

In the end, it may not have been a perfect fit. "I felt like I was a little bit part of his learning curve," said Austin, "which was non-advantageous to me. And [he admitted] he was getting an education as we were going along. I think he would be a better choice maybe in a couple of seasons from now, if he had more of a grasp of country music."

The supersized series finale of The Office airs this Thursday, May 16. The evening begins with a special one-hour retrospective, followed by the 75-minute final episode. "Months after the airing of the documentary," says the NBC's official press release, "the workers of Dunder Mifflin, past and present, gather for a wedding and a final round of interviews. Mysteries are solved, hatchets are buried, pranks are prunked."

"We didn't start off with the documentary as the finale," Executive Producer Greg Daniels told reporters. "The plan was to air the documentary in Episode 17, and as we got closer and closer to that point the writers and I would have furious debates.

"We thought it would be difficult to have a bunch of episodes after it had aired, and so we ended up pushing it off and off, and then it ended up being more close to the British show" on which the U.S. series is based."
