How Can I Watch It?
If you have already cut the cable cord, don’t worry. You can still watch The Voice live without cable on fuboTV, DirecTV Stream, Peacock or Sling.
You’ll have to pay for all of these services (unless you sign up for a free trial.) However, FuboTV is offering $20 off the first month through October.
The Voice features five stages of competition: Blind Auditions, Battle Rounds, Knockouts, Playoffs and Live Performance shows. During Blind Auditions, as the name suggests, the coaches can hear but not see the contestant. If a coach likes what they hear, they can turn their red chair to face the performer. More than one chair turn means the artist has a choice to make. If no coach turns their chair, the contestant is eliminated.
What’s New This Year?
Season 26 of The Voice has introduced a brand-new twist: the Coach Replay button. This new rule allows a coach to nab an artist even if that coach didn’t turn their chair during the initial performance.
Each coach has only one Replay button for the Blind Auditions. And at this point in the competition, only first-timers Michael Bublé still has that option. Defending champ Reba McEntire used hers during the season 26 premiere to snag Kendall Eugene. The 37-year-old’s heartfelt rendition of Morgan Wallen’s “Don’t Think Jesus” had the “Fancy” singer regretting not turning her chair.
During episode 3, no chairs turned for 14-year-old Jaylen Dunham’s performance of Beyoncé’s “Listen.” However, Stefani reconsidered her decision after being stunned by the artist’s youth and deployed her Coach’s Replay button, welcoming Jaylen to Team Gwen.
Snoop Dogg used his to save 61-year-old flight attendant Gail Bliss.
