The Masked Singer S05E06 Preview: Nick Cannon's Back; S05 Masks Update

Last week's round of FOX's The Masked Singer was a bit of good news/bad news for the singing competition series. The good news was that Crab, Black Swan, Chameleon, and Piglet survived a wildcard challenge. The bad news was for the wildcard, with Bulldog going home. But then we rebounded with good news because Bulldog was none other than Nick Cannon, which means the TMS is back and reunited with the team for this week's round, "Group A Finals – In The Nick Of Time." And not a moment too soon, as panelists Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong, Nicole Scherzinger, and Robin Thicke shave down Group A to set up the "Super Eight"- but waiting in the wings is another wildcard looking to steal someone's spot. Here's a look at preview images and promos for this week's contestants, Orca, Robopine, Seashell, and Russian Dolls (though interestingly enough, there wasn't an official image released for Russian Dolls… hmmm…):

Now here's a look at what's on tap for tonight's round of FOX's The Masked Singer:- first, a look at how the band is officially back together for the first time this season. Following that, the TMS panelists have prepared a little surprise for the returning Canon:
