With such strong ratings for The Voice, NBC probably wishes it had it run all during the regular season, but it now is getting more out of the singing competition series by expanding its live performance shows from one to two hours. Beginning June 7, The Voice will run from 9-11 PM on Tuesdays, following America’s Got Talent. Talent will keep its Tuesday, May 31 premiere date as previously scheduled — but now from 8-10 PM — and then air hourlong episodes at 8 PM beginning June 7. The veteran reality series will begin its live shows on Tuesday, July 5 from 9-11 PM for the remainder of the summer season as previously scheduled and result shows on Wednesdays from 9-10 PM. Through its first three weeks on the air, The Voice has averaged a 5.3/13 share in adults 18-49 and 11.8 million viewers overall, making it the top new series of the season in adults 18-49.

They need to show the “coaches” working with the “artists” in rehearsals more. That is actually interesting.
Welcome to Mondays, Biggest Loser.
Celine Dion’s voice is just unbelievable. No Pro-Tools for her: she’s all natural and all talent!
They’re going to ruin this show
NBC should just scrap there whole line-up and do 5 nights a week with “The Voice” – it might be their only hit left. Hope they bring some new stuff to the table next season.
Oh how I miss those Must See TV nights they used to be so famous for… What happened Peacock? I think you got Zucker-d.
Lookout American Idol! *There’s a new sheriff in town!
(*Note that in this scenario prime-time television is the wild west and reality singing shows are men of law. Thank you.)
Dear Networks,
Just because people like something doesn’t mean they want you to demand more of their time with it. See also: Who Wants to be a Millionaire. Enjoy your extra ad revenue while your viewers get burnt out.
Sincerely,

NBC has little choice but to try and squeeze every cent of revenue it can from The Voice. At the same time, NBC is still reworking a confusing, muddled format trying to be all things to all demos. The double competition in a “fighting ring’ was the killer for me as it was so bad, yet catering to the UFC fans?
In spite of all of their efforts…the show is losing its Mojo…and audience…and will die a prolonged death…because it is all NBC has…except, of course…Comcast.
The Show Rocked in the first shows with the chairs turning with a push of a button…and fell on its face with contestance yelling at eachother in a boxing ring…..I stopped watching
