That they don't want it mentioned is to be expected, really.

The Voice... bleh. I'll give it ONE more go this year (because Jessie J is gone and, as bad as the show has been, she was the worst of it) but if it's not much better in the first few weeks I'll be tuning out (or, rather, removing the series link... no one tunes into stuff any more do they?)

The format has so much potential, but they never end up with anyone decent past the second round?? Look at the two winners. Jesus effing christ. They make Sam Bailey look half decent.

Really hope cbb crushes c4 in the ratings next week and during the summer
