SuperJon 175 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 New show on NBC with Cee Lo, Christina Agulaiaflekara, Blake Shelton (no idea who he is), and Adam Levine are the "coaches"I think I like it so far. Link to post Share on other sites

Gallo 1 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Watched the show, I enjoyed it. The one thing I wonder is "why are some of these singers missing from Idol?" I know that a few them are too old. Did these people just not try out for Idol? Makes you wonder how many good singers are out there who are not on these shows. Link to post Share on other sites
vbnautilus 48 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I felt I had no choice but to watch this show given the amount of advertising they did for it. However, it didn't hold my attention more than a couple of minutes. Link to post Share on other sites

Swift_Psycho 1 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I generally don't care for any of these type of singing, dancing, or talent competition-type shows, but the set-up of The Voice intrigues me. I'm actually going to check this one out. Link to post Share on other sites
king_tanner 84 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I thought it was ok. From the first episode it seems like the fat white kid was by far the best. It is an interesting concept, the celebrities have to choose if they want them before seeing what they look like. The flaw with the show is that America will be voting and we do get to see what they look like. So we'll see if America will vote for the chick with the huge unibrow or the bald lesbian even if they turn out to be the best singers.Also, the choosing of the coach has to be rigged to make everything even, so I don't know how NBC took care of that.They mentioned that the Frenchie chick auditioned for American Idol. She didn't just audition, she made it on the show but was kicked off because they found out she was in a porno. Link to post Share on other sites

Makes you wonder how many good singers are out there who are not on these shows.I think it's because some of them are "too experienced" for Idol, and I don't necessarily just mean the age thing.I know one of the last guys Javier Colon that sang "Time After Time" had a record deal with Capitol Records at one point.

eYank 0 Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Something I read about the show, it wasn't shown or said how the contestants were picked. It's not like Idol where we know they all lined up and went through auditions. Were these people handpicked by the producers as the "best" singers? Did they purposely pick the bald lesbian to add to the "judges can't see the singer" premise? Did they pick the other girl just to get back at idol? It kind of takes a little from the show but in general I liked this round. I probably won't be watching it after next week though Link to post Share on other sites

I probably won't be watching it after next week thoughPeople had to be handpicked as being very good because even the singers who didn't get picked weren't bad. It looked like they didn't want the audition process to take a long time so they picked people who were already accomplished instead of auditioning everyone for months like idol does.

Pot Odds RAC 23 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Good show. Hadn't even heard of it until I came home one night and my wife was watching it. Levine and Shelton seem to be having a fun time. Link to post Share on other sites
Gallo 1 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Definitely think this show is sooooooo much better than American Idol. They basically sing any song they want, most are songs of this freakin decade. I don't have to hear Randy yell out, "He's in it to win it!!" every damn time!! I really like Blake, think he's pretty funny. Link to post Share on other sites

Dubey 1,035 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I enjoy this show.Xenia might be the worst singer ever to appear in anything past audtions for any show of it's type. Why is everyone so nice to her? How the heck was she picked in her Battle round?I also loved the Heartless rendition by Dia, I am also in love with Dia. Link to post Share on other sites
king_tanner 84 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I think C-lo and Adam have the better singers by far. Link to post Share on other sites

She is EXTREMELY nervous and young. Her voice is unique and haunting and I think she can be amazing if they help her and get her to sing the right songs for her type of voice.

Her voice is unique and haunting and I think she can be amazing if they help her and get her to sing the right songs for her type of voice.fair enough, she may have an amazing voice, but the two performances (her battle round, and then the Quarter finals) were horrendous. Yes, she was extremely nervous, and she seems nice and I feel really bad for her, but you can't use nerves for an excuse for a terrible performance in a show like this.

Dubey 1,035 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I think C-lo and Adam have the better singers by far.Agreed, Adam's team is particularly strong. Christina's team is particularly weak (imo) Link to post Share on other sites
SuperJon 175 Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 Is Xenia the Jersey Shore chick?If so, I can't stand her voice. Link to post Share on other sites
Jadaki 0 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Loved the version of Heartless by Dia.Really? I thought it was interesting but the phrasing seemed way off to me. Her voice seemed to go way off in spots making some of the lyrics hard to hear. I give her credit for trying something different with it, but I thought it was one of the worst versions I've heard.

Voldemort 0 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Ya, I appreciated her trying to change it up and due to her voice I thought it worked. Link to post Share on other sites
king_tanner 84 Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I thought it was a lot better this week since there were stronger performers. It is obvious who will make it through from Adam and Cee-lo's team. Vicki and Nakia from Cee-lo's team and Jeff and Javier from Adam's team. I'd be shocked if someone different made it.Blake had a tough decision because the 3 left from his team were pretty weak. I think I would have gone with the country guy over Xenia, but I'm glad Xenia went through anyways.The group performances are pretty painful to watch. Fast forward!Christina's fake tits are still the stars of the show. Link to post Share on other sites
king_tanner 84 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 There is something fishy about this show. How are people voted off prior to the performances on the same night? Did the people who got sent home have to prepare a song, to ultimately not sing it? Also, how does Adam keep the chick and not the fat kid?I did like the performances tonight. I also like how this show doesn't drag on for months like American Idol. If someone has one not so good performance they most likely are gone immediately. Link to post Share on other sites
