‘The Voice’ Fans Are Still Unhappy With Amount of Country Artists: “Bring Back Nashville Star”
The Voice provides an opportunity for aspiring musicians of all genres to get their start in the industry. With a fresh crop of hopefuls each year and a revolving coaching lineup, producers do their best to keep the show fresh after 26 seasons. However, a recurring complaint has surfaced online again this season: that there is simply “too much country.”
‘The Voice’ Fans Hope the Show Has Met Its “Country Quota”
The first three Blind Audition episodes have already brought us some incredible performances, including Tanner Frick’s four-chair turn cover of Morgan Wallen’s “Thought You Should Know.”
Nashville duo MisterMoon shocked viewers during Monday’s (Oct. 7) episode when they chose Snoop Dogg over Reba McEntire, the “Queen of Country.” Both coaches turned for their performance of Kacey Musgraves’ “Deeper Well.”
While the duo prefers to think of their sound as “folk-pop,” some viewers lamented the number of country artists auditioning for The Voice this season. “Gwen, please tell me you reached your ‘country quota,’” one viewer wrote on X/Twitter.
Yes. It started when she was dating him. She wanted to get a country singer from him (And she's under the impression that even a bad country singer will get her the win) Which didn't work out for her the last time she was on. She had no one in the finales. pic.twitter.com/XmaQwjo2WA

They later added, “All the country on #AmericanIdol and the #TheVoice is proof they need to bring back Nashville Star.”
Well Gwen now you know how we feel when we get country artist after country artist.

Another X/Twitter user suggested the show change its name to The Country Voice. Yet another added, “Way too much country on this show.”
Last year’s panel consisted of three country artists, Reba McEntire and coaching duo Dan + Shay. This year is more balanced, with hip-hop, ska, pop and country represented.
In any case, The Voice still has another week of Blind Auditions to go. Once all four coaches have filled their teams, the Battle Rounds will kick off Monday, Oct. 21.
Major Schedule Changes Incoming
If you just can’t get enough of The Voice, you’re in luck. Starting tonight (Oct. 8), the show will air every Monday and Tuesday at 8 p.m. Eastern on NBC until the beginning of November.
The Voice will skip an episode Election Night (Tuesday, Nov. 5) but will return to its twice-weekly format the next week for the rest of the season.
Initially, the show cut back to one episode a week to make space for the U.S. presidential election debates and the season 19 finale of America’s Got Talent. Now that both have ended, The Voice will return to its normal twice-weekly schedule.
