The Voice

Is this where Ten’s own social media accounts are pumping up their own show, rather than others? Is that what you mean (i.e.) inflation.

Yep. A lot of that, they can flood timelines by tweeting about every minute thing that goes on the show and that boosts the hashtag.

What happened in the first ten minutes?

I think Bachelor did well last night. It beat both MKR and The Voice in the 16-39 demo and was a close second to MKR in the 18-49 demo. The Voice didn’t make the top 5 in either of those demos showing that it has a older audience this year. Bachelor also increased in total viewers from last week despite the extra competition.

Just the usual backstory about a teen that was bullied and has now found the confidence to sing again.

I notice from the credits that Eureka Productions has been dropped as co-production company of the show. It is now solely produced by ITV Studios Australia.

Last year the blind auditions also ran for 10 episodes but they aired across four weeks, whereas this year the blinds were broadcast across three weeks. If the show repeats the schedule from last year (one week of knockouts and one week of battle rounds), then the first live show should be held on Sunday, May 20.

news.com.au spoiler ahead of tonight’s show.

I know I should take anything from News Corp with a grain of salt but it said that the Voice starts at 7pm.

Huh? Unless if there was a surprise announcement that ACA was cancelled for good.

Sunday’s show:

Yes it is. He was on last night.

The story is dated today, so I assumed it was tonight’s program!

Are you even watching?

I’m unsure how I feel about him. Not really a singer but did have an ok voice. They made such a deal about him. He wasn’t that great.

I thought Sam was technically breaking the rules by using a vocal loop machine. If he was to make it to the live shows he needed to rely less on the machine.

He would have to have asked permission from the producers to use the looper so they clearly thought he wasn’t breaking any rules.

RIP AGT.
RIP The Voice.

Chrislyn Hamilton who placed 5th in Aus Idol and also was a semi finalist in AGT auditioned and was chosen tonight on The Voice.

Have we officially run out of options?

Now it’s Michael & Tracey Bevans daughter :flushed:

I’m not sure if this has been mentioned (sorry if it has) but Trent Bell who was in that boy group that they formed on X Factor (and made the final) is performing this week. Also someone told me that Nathan Brake who came 3rd or 4th in one of the final seasons of Australian Idol is also on it.

It all seems pretty desperate. If their careers didn’t ignite from Idol or X Factor, two shows that have actually produced artists with relative success, then they have no hope going anywhere from The Voice.
