“The Voice” premiere on Monday managed to do something very rare: live up to all of the hype established from the premiere. There was humor, great music, and the coaches actually seeming as though they are genuinely invested in what is going on. (Take that, Randy Jackson!) We really tried to stay behind “American Idol” […]
At the moment, it must be good to be NBC. For the first time since the start of the spring season, the network actually has something worth celebrating when it comes to their programming: the performance of their new shows Monday night. First of all, who saw “The Voice” beating “American Idol” into next week? […]
You’ve waited for it for quite a while now, and on Monday night, it was finally here: the season 4 premiere of “The Voice.” It was a welcome return to what is genuinely becoming the best singing competition on TV. We like that the coaches actually get along with each other, that there are no […]
After a few months of waiting (and some ratings doldrums over at NBC), “The Voice” is finally going to be back on the air Monday night. Not only that, but some of the folks responsible for making this show so popular are promising that there are some big things in store. Both Usher and the […]
Before “The Voice” season 4 premieres on NBC Monday night, we thought it best to give you an idea of a couple of the performers who are hoping to impress the likes of Usher, Shakira, Adam Levine, and Blake Shelton.

Do you have a good twenty minutes on your hands? NBC is in the process of a pretty heavy promotional tour for “The Voice,” and we have a whole heap of videos now featuring what the new coaches are saying about the experience of working on the show’s fourth season, and what the new panel […]
It’s already been more or less proven by ratings over the course of the past year that the bevy of singing competitions on TV are all starting to slowly eat away at each other; so with that in mind, why in the world would “The Voice” be interested in pitting themselves against “American Idol”? After […]
So will “The Voice” season 4 really work as an environment to help nurture and support new coaches Shakira and Usher? Based on what we are hearing now from the show’s wily veterans, it certainly doesn’t seem like it. Blake Shelton and Adam Levine have been in many ways two of the primary cogs behind […]
While Shakira is a major star to English-speaking audiences courtesy of some of her hits like “Hips Don’t Lie” and “She-Wolf,” she’s a legend in Spanish-speaking countries throughout Latin America, arguably even more so than any singing show judge ever to take a look at American talent.
