The Voice

Coordinating the schedules of the four mentors to come back for another visit is a different issue to the costs involved.

It should be noted that Nine dropped the show because they said it was expensive and becoming less viable with ratings dropping. When Seven picked up The Voice, they said that they were going to produce it on a budget, which is why they film it all at once and don’t stretch it out over the year.

But filming it all at once, including multiple endings for the grand final, means we don’t get to see the genuine reactions from the winner and their coach when Sonia makes the announcement. That is why I have been calling for the return of live telecast of the grand final, plus the semi-final if situations allow.

The best thing 7 could do for the genuine reaction is to do something similar to Big Brother where they have the top 4 for a live reaction.

I would personally prefer the pre-recorded reactions than that.

7 would never do the voice live. So that’s realistically the only option for a genuine reaction

I hope they’re not suggesting that this means they might not have got the correct winner. It’s not Seven’s fault that people are dumb and can’t read a number.

Also, to all those morons going “oh once again another white person wins etc etc”. Blame that on your fellow citizens as the viewers voted for the winner.

Most people voting would be young female viewers and you could have guessed weeks ago that Lachie would win. Especially with Rita gushing all over him every week.

What a load of rubbish.
How do we know other people with similar numbers weren’t also sent a text in error… what a beat up!

And as for 3 “people of colour” not winning… does that mean that Lachie should not have been considered because he isn’t “of colour” … that’s hardly fair … again, a beat up.

Thando is on an upcoming ep of Spicks and Specks where she gives some details of how The Voice final worked this year. All of the contestants had to record themselves winning as well as losing 3 times - so they gave an authentic experience to each winner. They then found out the winner on the night watching it on TV - she said her actual reaction to losing was different to her reaction on screen :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Season 11 premieres on TVNZ2 in New Zealand this Friday (October 7) at 7.30pm.

Sonia said at today’s upfronts that an international judge would replace Keith Urban, meaning two Aussies and two internationals on the coaching/judging panel.

That’s disappointing, it should be rested for at least a year.
