NBC is the last of the networks to air their talent competitions consistently on two nights a week. The ratings have been dropping so could the network start cutting back? How will the series perform this time around? There’s seemingly no chance that The Voice will be cancelled any time soon (season 12 is expected in the spring) but it’s still fun to watch the ratings. Stay tuned.
Hosted by Carson Daly, The Voice singing competition typically airs twice a week — on Monday and Tuesday nights. Longtime coaches Adam Levine and Blake Shelton have returned and are joined by new coaches Miley Cyrus and Alicia Keys. Team advisors include Bette Midler (Team Blake), Sammy Hagar (Team Adam), Charlie Puth (Team Alicia), and Joan Jett (Team Miley).
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
10/18 update: NBC has renewed The Voice for seasons 12 and 13. Details here.
12/14 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.

For comparisons: The Tuesday editions of the ninth season of The Voice (Fall 2015) averaged a 2.70 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 11.22 million viewers (live + same day ratings).
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you still like The Voice TV series? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for another season?
Miley Cyrus and her casual provocative tendencies have turned me off from this show for good. It’s not as pathetic as putting Nicki Minaj on set, but it makes me wonder if they are hiring less than qualified “judges” to appeal to young and incompetent viewers who just enjoy a celebrity entourage, despite the disgusting reputations following them (her)
