The Voice. Anyone?

[copzgirl1171]

I think J and I must be the only ones watching lately

*sad trombone*

[IIOY]

I'm watching!

[copzgirl1171]

DUDE!!

Did you see that Courtney Stoddard duet that Xtina took? Doing the math and making huge assumptions that dude had been boning her since she was 16, and what was with his get up?

Also, that country chick who kept shoving her butt out and shaking her hair?

[winston]

We're watching this season. The Cupid Shuffle? What was he thinking?

'I'm feeling pigeonholed by this song. The only way to overcome that is to come on The Voice... and sing The Cupid Shuffle.'

No. NO. Dumbass.

[copzgirl1171]

I am team CeeLo, but he seems to really think he is too cool to lobby to get singers on his team so he is sucking goat nuts this season.

[passthewine]

I've been watching but I'm not sure I'll make it much past the auditions. They make such a deal about picking blindly but as soon as they see what they look like, they get the boot the next round.

I love the Voice - BUT I love the X-factor more, so I missed last Wed as the x-factor was starting.

DH and I don't think the talent is as good this season as last year, though there are certainly some very good singers I just haven't seen a 'star' yet. A few of the judge choices last night (the ones they only showed short clips of) we didn't think were all that great. They are probably editing it already to highlight the ones that the judges are going to move forward.

[copzgirl1171]

I agree that there is no one really wowing me.

Except Adam and his shine is gone after that god awful Payphone song.

Lol Copz. I did the math too.

Do the stylists not help her? How does she have no idea how terrible she looks?

I wonder if this show will survive after this season. Blake and Christina are already planning to leave so they can get back to their careers, which is understandable.

[copzgirl1171]

I thought this was what was left of Christina's career

[winston]

Copz, I think you're probably right, and I kind of wondered what she was planning to return to.

[EloiseWeenie]

I watch it. I really like that they don't have the freak show aspect to the auditions.

The strange duet sounded good for the first few notes, and then once they had their solos I thought they weren't very good either. At least it's an easy vote off for the battle rounds.

[winston]

I also think the only reason Christina didn't push her button for that one girl was because she sang Toxic. Did you see the look on her face?

[copzgirl1171]

Her orange, ORANGE lipstick was more distracting than her boobs last night.

I was like why, why, why would you do that. Who told him that was a good idea.

[blindyswife]

I heard on the radio this morning that Christina and Ceelo are leaving after this season, and they are being replaced by Usher and Shakira. I can't stand Christina, or her boobs, so thumbs up from me! Adam and Blake have signed on for another season. I have thought from the beginning that the show would stay fresh if they replaced all four coaches each year. But what do I know?

I have last night's episode dvr'd.

[winston]

Blake signed on again? That's so weird, he's been really vocal about wanting to get back to touring for quite awhile now.

I like this combination of coaches. I'm not sure I'll stick with it when it changes. I never really expected more than a season or two out of this when it started.

[passthewine]

I can't figure out if Christina's boobs annoy me more, or the fact that she refers to herself as Xtina... seriously, wtf.

All of this. When it's not a country song, Blake is a follower in pushing his button. I do wonder if part of the issue is that he relishes the argument. Either way, I give him a pass because he is by far the funniest of the judges and I love him.

I do not understand Christina's outfits at all. The unitard performance outfits are absolute crimes.

[picksthemusic]

I'm watching (lurker here). I love it so far - I also love that they get more people this season.

[rosiedozie]

This is my first time watching the show and I love it so far. I like the way that the auditions work, but how does the rest of the show go? Voting? Judges kick people off?

[vanillacourage]

I got a little squicked out at their reactions when the girl from the Fame high school said she was 17 - but then again I wouldn't have let her out of the house like that if she were my kid so maybe I am just a fuddy-duddy.

I forgot about her (I thought her voice was meh). I said the same thing, she looked like a dancer at the airport. He parents should be ashamed of themselves.

rosie, here is a good description

I am so addicted to this show. It's pathetic. And I can ditto just about everything on this thread...the 17-year-old? WTF were her parents thinking? I get some girls look older and are absolutely gorgeous, but still. You don't have to let your teenager dress like that. She might as well wear a little sandwich board sign that says, "Jailbait!" because damn...

And Cupid Shuffle Dude, what were you THINKING?!? How can you say, "This song pigeonholes me," and then go on and...sing the son the pigeonholes you? Dumb move. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

I was heartbroken when I read Usher and Shakira were coming on. Then I saw they were replacing Christina and Cee-Lo and felt okay again. I'm sorry, but I love me some Adam and Blake. Love. I love their coaching, I love hearing their thoughts on the artists, I love their bickering and yes, I LOVE looking at them both. So I'm happy they're coming back for another season, even though I too, saw Blake was pretty upset with the back-to-back seasons.

I just love how the show is so positive. They don't embarrass anyone in the auditions, everyone who gets up there is at least decent and the coaches try to be positive. Heck, they were so encouraging one dude came back after not being picked last time, got back on and got on a team last week. It was great.

I have enough negativity in my life. I don't want it on the TV I watch.

ITA. It's a refreshing change of pace for a reality show.

As much as I think that Christina SORELY needs a new stylist, I do love her. Say what you will about her boobs, the girl can still sing!

Sure, she's got good pipes.

But her personality sucks.

[passthewine]

I was pretty sure that I was giving up after/during this season but if Christina's leaving I might have to keep watching.

[cindy1993]

Last night was my first night watching... & all by GOD, is Adam Levine hot??

I have always been a fan of Blake (my radio stays on country - don't judge!) but I think I just might need to discover a new genre of music.

[dutchgirl678]

We watch it but DVR it so I haven't seen last night's episode yet. I'm excited to hear Blake and Adam stay next season but glad to see Christina and CeeLo go. I love CeeLo but he just doesn't seem to be enjoying it very much at all. And I noticed that last season too. And Xtina's outfits and boobs annoy the heck out of me. Get some style!
