That's My Jam	comment	That's My Jam is a Panel Game hosted by Jimmy Fallon on NBC beginning in 2022 (with a sneak peek episode aired November 2021), inspired by the musical games and challenges from Fallon's Tonight Show. Two teams of two celebrities each compete in challenges mostly revolving around popular music—singing karaoke style under various conditions, answering trivia questions about bands and musicians, and attempting to play songs on unfamiliar instruments, to name a few. Fallon is supported by the "Jam Band," who are skilled in translating popular songs into different musical genres and in backing the sometimes inexpert lead vocals of the competitors.The first few games vary by episode, but the show always finishes with the "Wheel of Impossible Karaoke" (the aforementioned karaoke-with-conditions) and "Slay It, Don't Spray It," which is karaoke in a sound booth. Teams that fail to complete a popular-song lyric after their teleprompter is cut off get sprayed with water from the booth's microphones.Though styled as a competition, the focus is on the humor of forcing celebrities into the rather ridiculous situations of the games. The Points Mean Nothing and the contestants are appearing—but not competing—on behalf of charities, which each receive identical donations regardless of the outcome.A UK version of the show, hosted by Mo Gilligan, premiered in December 2022, lasting only one series.

That's My Jam / int_3fc2a7d1	comment	Panel Game: All the elements of a classic panel game are present—teamed contestants, humorous presentation, lack of any real stakes—but with higher-than-average production values and a focus on singing and popular music trivia.

That's My Jam / int_5fcb3c79	comment	Golden Snitch: The last round of "Slay It, Don't Spray It" is worth 200,000 points, almost always more than the rest of the episode's games combined. The entire thing comes down to whether one of the four contestants, chosen at random (or by the producers), can remember the next line of a song when the onscreen lyrics cut out. Fallon cheerfully acknowledges this before the last ad break.note The second episode accrued a total score of 407,000, making it technically possible for one team to win all but the last round and still win—which didn't happen.

That's My Jam / int_65cbb040	type	Pinball Scoring
That's My Jam / int_65cbb040	comment	Pinball Scoring: Points awarded start at 1,000 for the first round of the first game and go up to 200,000 for the last round of "Slay It, Don't Spray It." There are never less than 1,000 points awarded at a time. The total amount of points in an episode is approximately 395,000; the scoring would be identical if it was 395, but having thousands of points sounds more impressive.

That's My Jam / int_6f064059	comment	The Points Mean Nothing: Points of increasing amounts are awarded for each game and tallied up onscreen, but matter not at all to the outcome thanks to the last round of the last game being worth 200,000 points on its own—more than the rest of the episode combined. They mostly serve to track which team is better able to get into the spirit of the games.
