'The Voice' Season 26 has seen a surge of complaints, especially now with the semi-finalists. The loudest critics are coming from its massive fandom—the loyal viewers of the show. According to some fans, the top contestant was eliminated too soon, and since then, the remaining contestants have failed to appear fully prepared for the finals.

Some have taken to social media, pointing out instances where judges fail to assign suitable songs to contestants on 'The Voice', resulting in weaker performances from those contestants. On X one fan wrote, "Tonight is really showcasing that a lot of good singers were sent home last week and some ppl who stayed are not finale ready… plus the judges dont pick the right songs for their voice." Another wrote, "The judges get rid of 97% of the good singers and leave us to vote on the 3% leftover. Then they wonder why the winners never go anywhere." "I'm glad America is voting. Because the judges haven't made good choices this season," added another.





 

One critic said, "So all the greats got sent home and now we gotta sit here and watch the judges BS each other as if these are the greats? Ok." Another noted, "Is it just me or has Christina consistently performed WORSE? Like, there is no reason she should have carried this far into lives when she’s NOT gotten better? & I HATE that the judges only say positive things now & don’t call them out on their bullshit excuses."
