Has it been mentioned that the Voice's live show got a higher share than BGT's live show?
We can all agree that TV has lost 2m viewers recently, but some people cannot bring themselves to admit BGT is losing share and audience.

Interesting. Eurovision is actually one thing I'd quite like the BBC to lose the rights too as it would be interesting to see what a rival did with the selection process and whether our own version of Melodifestivalen could materialise.

Indeed, it will be fascinating to see where exactly BBC1 will put The Voice next year, in the Winter or Spring. Spot on, the 7pm starts would be much better before the clocks change. BUT a bad thing about having Voice early next year is that it wouldnt get any press coverage about the whole Voice v BGT thing. Apart from the 'BGT ratings clash' headlines the Voice for some reason hasnt had much press coverage about the actual contestants. So next year if its scheduled in January and February, will the press be talking about the show as much as they have done this year? I would like them to introduce a sing off into the results show, whcih needs to be live, 8.30pm on a Sunday would be great as well.

so 1 comment on The Voice
I am surprised to see these ratings drop, however maybe its because this part of the show is too similar to X-Factor. I also dont think people like the judges as much as they engage with them on X-Factor. |

Plus Eurovision with ads wouldn't be a bad thing - means we avoid those awkward moments of filler from the local hosts, even if they are often the best thing about it.

It doesn't need anymore coverage concerning BGT, the BGT vs TVUK coverage has already helped establish the show. If it aired in say February next year, the press would still write loads of stories about The Voice and they'd probabaly be more about the content of the show too.

Bingo!! I thought that was correct, but don't like to hit BGT while it is down
We can all agree that TV has lost 2m viewers recently, but some people cannot bring themselves to admit BGT is losing share and audience.6.5m for The Voice is still a good figure in itself but it's part of a very steep decline, much steeper and much more noticeable than BGT's dip. |

Its the World Snooker Championship Final today, BARB says last years final had 3.93million viewers. This years final has Ronnie O'Sullivan playing, the most popular snooker player of the last decade. It also has Michaela Tabb refereeing, by far the most popular referee around

I have no interest in Will.i.am , and im thinking he isnt going down well with more traditional BBC viewers.

Will.i.am is one of the main problems. He isn't working on the live shows and is providing too many awkward moments. Don't think he will be back next year. I reckon they might add a second female judge in.

It appears many people have watched The Voice auditions but not the later live shows.
Surely there must be a risk that in series 2 these people may be less likely to watch the auditions? If you know you are likely to lose interest after the auditions then isn't it more likely that you may simply not bother with the auditions? Of course in series 1 when these same people watched the auditions they didn't know they wouldn't be interested in the live shows. |

The coaches are too close to things. Jessie is a bigger problem; her song choices were dreadful and for all her shouting about 'The Voice' she gave the best singer in the competition a stupid prop! Fact is the 'coaching'/'judging' role does not work together. It'd be like having the Strictly partner score their own celeb! |

I think he works. Its just they maybe need Reggie to talk to some guests in the V room on the performance.

Fact is the 'coaching'/'judging' role does not work together. It'd be like having the Strictly partner score their own celeb! Ok sorry about that but this the problem with him. When they can edit his comments so they flow better its fine but not live. I reckon he will be the first one to go when changes are made. Its strange to think Mary J Blige missed out on the job to him. She would have been so much better.Maybe next year they will throw the big bucks and get Kylie afterall. We also need to know the contestants better. We know very little about them and thats not good enough if viewers are to invest in their story. |

Let's see now - so far we've had...
Spinning chairs & erratic camera angles focussing on judges (sorry coaches Flat "live" shows... ![]() Every other act being praised unrealistically with comments of "you remind me of" then gettting chucked off... ![]() The BBC jumping through hoops as if it's some sort of television event of the decade , with even Willibooby gushing "it's the tv event of the night".... :yawn: Acts connected to Universal Music at the so called impartial BBC Contestants being told to change their image - oh wait a minute we were told "it's all about the voice" ![]() I.am.ill being reprimanded for Tweeting on air. "Boobgate" with Holly in the press. Danny O'Digmetoo gushing about how many "marriage proposals I've had since the show started" :sleep: Critics have a cheek to pan BGT and/or X Factor when there's a circus of a show being trotted out by Auntie.

I think the panel looked good on paper but hasn't really delivered, and the banter between them is lacking. One of the things I read a lot is there isn't any humour about The Voice. These problems are very much secondary to the format issues though. |

I think you've said that about everything on the BBC, including the Grand National and the Six Nations. But I don't see how you can do the selection process for Eurovision any different, unless you make it the prize for The X Factor.

There was a report a couple weeks ago saying all four coaches on The Voice UK will return next year, each of them getting a 5% increase in wages. But after whats happened the last week or two, the BBC might want to make some changes. I like Danny a lot but will.i.am has not been good during the live shows.

The Voice UK overnight trajectory
Auditions 1: 8.43m; 37.6% Auditions 2: 9.00m; 39.3% Auditions 3: 9.54m; 41.1% Auditions 4: 10.68m; 45.5% Battle Round 1: 9.89m; 42.3% Battle Round 2: 10.09m; 38.5% Live Show 1: 9.33m; 41.8% Results 1: 8.62m; 35.1% Live Show 2: 8.16m; 35.6% Results 2: 6.53m; 30.3% Britain's Got Talent overnight trajectory (inc. +1 in brackets) Auditions 1: 9.43m; 39.2% (10.00m; 41.7%) Auditions 2: 10.28m; 41.3% (10.82m; 43.7%) Auditions 3: 9.43m; 38.7% (9.96m; 41.0%) Auditions 4: 10.04m; 39.5% (10.58m; 41.8%) Auditions 5: 9.52m; 38.2% (10.01m; 40.4%) Auditions 6: 9.67m; 41.8% (10.16m; 44.1%) Auditions 7: 9.82m; 38.9% (10.14m) Live Show 1: 9.05m; 35.5% (9.53m) The Voice will have to accept that increased competition from Britain's Got Talent and the football plus an early start due to Eurovision will hurt it in it's final weeks. The switch of EastEnders to 7.30pm could hurt Britain's Got Talent tonight and I expect the results show to take a massive hit as they're on too late for families with children. I think, if anything, Britain's Got Talent has slightly more to worry about if the live shows continue the trend of shedding viewers. The Voice has clear faults which can be rectified next series but common consesus appears to be that Britain's Got Talent put on a good semi final last night so I'm not sure what can be changed - except maybe a larger emphasis on quality variety. |
