'The Voice' Alters Format, Opens Door for New Judges Next Year
by Phil Gallo, L.A. | August 13, 2012 9:20 EDT
For its third season, "The Voice" will see a shake-up in its early rounds
that allows coaches to claim discarded competitors and forces singers to show
off their skills without the assistance of mentors.
The singing competition show, which begins airing Sept. 10 on NBC, has added
an element called "The Steal" that comes into play after a coach has cut a
singer. Competitors will again go head-to-head in battle rounds and each
coach -- Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine, Cee Lo Green and Blake Shelton --
will decide to keep one of the two singers. The released singer is then fair
game for the other coaches to claim.
As usual, each coach starts with 16 singers selected with their backs to the
performers. The battle rounds get their pools down to eight; each coach will
add two singers from the other coaches' discard piles.
To whittle each team to five singers, the performers will go into a Knock-Out
Round. Each singer chooses their own song and performs while the next
contestant is seated on a stool in the boxing ring they use for a set. It
will then go into live competition shows, beginning at the end of October.
"It's a brilliant piece of TV," Levine said Sunday afternoon (Aug. 12) at a
press gathering in Malibu for the show.

Host and producer Carson Daly pointed to two battle rounds of the the first
two seasons that saw legitimate contenders get cut and likened the new set-up
to fantasy football. "It becomes an incentive to look at your team and the
rest of the league," he said.
To illustrate the point, footage shot over the weekend was screened that
shows two singers -- one male, one female -- belting out the Mariah Carey hit
"Vision of Love." It was a tough call for Green to make and after he made his
selection, the other three coaches buzzed in to scoop up the cut singer.
Burnett hinted that season three may be the last time the inaugural four are
together. None of them are signed to contracts for the fourth season and it's
highly likely the show will return in the spring when all four might have
touring commitments.
"It's your seat for life," Burnett said, making a promise to the coaches that
any replacements would be only for a season. "If someone goes on tour, they
can help bring in another coach." While the show certainly benefits from
having four active performers on it, Burnett emphatically said, "This is the
producers' nightmare … They have tour dates and they have an obligation to
their fans."

Aguilera, who is preparing for the release of her next single "Your Body,"
put an extra spin on it, saying that having new experiences in making records
and touring allows them "to bring fresh advice" to young singers.
Naturally, Aguilera was asked about Britney Spears appearing this fall on "X
Factor"and she was gracious noting that their careers constantly cross paths
and she know "welcomes her to the family" of singers working in television.
"She'll give great advice," Aguilera said before adding, "I don't know
formats of the other shows."
The Voice 3加入新規則 The Steal,
每一位教練可以在 Battle Rounds的階段挑選兩位被其他教練剔除的選手,
也就是說第一次擂台賽結束每一隊伍會有 8+2名參賽者,
然後再進行 Knock-Out Round,把每一隊人數削減到 5人。
(我應該沒理解錯吧?)
四位教練可能都不會繼續參與第四季的節目,
因為各自都有巡演計畫,
目前沒有任何一位教練續約。
(所以克計畫是 The Voice翻紅就要拍拍屁股走人?XD)
