The mighty have fallen. It was great from seasons 2-8. Should have quit doing the show when Simon left.
How does a company like that get 400 million in debt to begin with?
Not having a least one judge allowed to speak critically, as Simon did, makes shows like these sugary hype, ripe for fast-forwarding through the schlock. I am a fan of The Voice, but can watch a two-hour performance show in less than half an hour, easily.
