Yeah, that show with that chick who used to compete against Britney Spears [Christina Aguilera] and the dude from Maroon 5 [Adam Lavine], the dude with the song that had to modified because children listen to the radio [Ceelo Green] and the country dude [Blake Shelton].
Gotta be honest, like it way better than American Idol. For once, I know who the judges are [for the most part] and they don't really have any time to say anything irrelevant.
Oh, and the concept is pretty cool. For those of you who don't know, the judges [the people I listed above] are facing the audience. They do not see the person singing and can only judge him/her/them based on his/her/their voice[s]. If they really like the voice, the hit the button in front of them and the chair spins around. If only one person hits the button when the song is through, the singer will be mentored by that judge.
Then here comes the tricky part... "But what if more than one judge turns around?" you may ask... And it's simple... The singer has the power at this point. He/she/them get to decide who they want to be their mentor. Of course, the judges have a little bit of time to plead his/her case. Essentially, this gives control to the artist.
Pretty phenomenal if I do say so myself. There is a draw back to this of course. All the people who perform for the judges are pre-screened. Don't know how that works but basically you don't have too many bad singers in the bunch. Of course, that can depend on your tastes in music too.
Either way, I think I'm going to try and keep up with this show. If only to see Adam Levine's facial expressions. Because they are f-ing amusing.
