“The Voice,” NBC’s new singing competition which stars Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton, Cee Lo Green, and Adam Levine as coaches, has scored the coveted post-Super Bowl spot in 2012. This show has nowhere to go but UP UP UP in ratings!!!
NBC’s Bob Greenblatt said, “There is no better showcase on television than to follow the Super Bowl, and we believe “The Voice’ is deserving of such high-profile exposure. The attention-grabbing blind audition phase of The Voice has mass appeal and will fittingly team up with the biggest sporting event of the year.”

“The Voice” hosted by Carson Daly, debuted on April 26 and has been a ratings hit since then. Starting next week, the show will have their singing competition live after the coaches had chosen four contestants each. Due to consistent high viewership, the show was picked up last month for a second season.
Fox hosted the Super Bowl this year and gave the coveted spot to its breakout hit “Glee,” which became the top scripted telecast in three years. The Voice is expected to accomplish the same or even better.
One advice to NBC execs though. Don’t let Christina sing the national anthem again next year. She might mess up the lyrics again. Remember the lyrics fumble last year?
