Behind the Screen: The Voice - NBC

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

I'm really loving this show! I haven't seen tonights episode yet, but the first one was great. At first I thought it was going to be really stupid, but they actually pulled it off!

Same,it's not the same thing over and over.

It's interesting to say the least. I lost interest in American Idol a while back and this is definitely better. I really like this concept how they aren't just going based off looks because that's what Idol has been going for the past few years and there hasn't really been someone to wow the crowd, or at least in my opinion.

But really, how many "unattractive" people have they even had as options? The mom from NJ was probably the least attractive and most of that was because of her age and styling choices. If they really wanted to make it about "the voice" they should have included some Susan Boyle's. Granted the second episode hasn't aired for me yet so maybe they included more of that in tonight's episode. I did find it entertaining though. I heard they are adding even more music industry people to work with the mentors once they have their teams picked? How many more judges/mentors does this show need?

I see what your saying. I was more referring to how they judges aren't letting someone through just based off looks like they did with Bikini girl on Idol. They aren't going to let anyone go on that's super unattractive or that they haven't put make up on. They were showing them put make up on people tonight, or at least I thought I caught a glimpse of them doing that. Hah, you're right about the judges/mentors. I've always thought four was too many to begin with.
RMD1#9
I think 4 works for the voice.

Yes, it is nice that there won't be any bikini girl type contestants because those are such a waste of time.

It is great that we don't have to deal with BS auditions.

This show is such a breathe of fresh air. All the judges are good,I feel Cee-Lo and Adam are gonna be the front-runners.
beecee#13
This show is really great and I've fallen in love with Adam.
Spinner554#14
Adam has a very good team. I am rooting for him!
TheSeenScene#15
I was hesitant to watch this show when it first premiered, what with AI airing already and The X Factor premiering in the fall, but I decided to give it a shot and I'm glad I did. It has such a fresh concept, and I like the fact that the coaches are also competing against each other. I can't wait for next week's episode for the battle rounds. Oh, and Team Christina for the win!
Buck05#16
Team Blake!

I have to root for Adam's team. A student from my school is on his team, so I'm a little biased :D

I think the world is going to end since we agree, but I am going to have to go with Adam as well :D
bgstl77#19
Adam's team has my 2 favorites (Javier, Rebecca) and Blake's team has my next 2 (Xenia, Dia) - but I'm guessing they're gonna faceoff.

This show's entertaining as hell, but someone needs to put security with Cee-Lo before some of those girls wind up pregnant. He's like a creepy little dirty Ewok when a young girl gets up to sing. I think that'll be the dynamic between Blake and Cee-Lo. Blake trying to save Cee-Lo's team from Cee-Lo. I dig the chemistry between Christina and Adam. I think Adam's got a strong team.

I thought so too, but his last two picks weakened his team a bit, I think. Adam was so careful on who he chose that it came back to bite him in the butt when the show went into, "OK, Adam, we're alllllll waiting on YOU" mode.

The Voice has already been picked up for a 2nd season.

LaneV95#26

erodwhtboy#27
Any contestant on the Voice would win American Idol easily
ILoveRW#28
First episode of The Voice UK was amazing, I haven't seen the US verison so I can't compare, but Jessie=Goddess.
LaneV95#29
Is it possible to catch that episode online?
Npresh24#30
Team Usher. Team Usher has quite few gems Jess Kellner is this indie and country fused pop singer Ryan Innes is John Legend and John Mayer love child Josian Hawley is like Maroon 5 mixed with Michael Buble These three are the only ones I can see having real careers outside The Voice. Team Adam,Blake and Shakira are basic at best
Nostalgic#31
Except Ryan Innes sucks, dude. He has no range or vocals.
