Buckle up and cancel your Monday night plans, as 'The Voice' is returning for season 17 in less than a month, and we couldn't get any more excited.
Reality TV has kept us busy this summer with Songland, Love Island, America's Got Talent, etc... But with fall arriving, so is our favorite reality TV competition series, 'The Voice'. Though it is sad to know that longtime judge and fan-favorite Adam Levine will not be returning to his red chair, that doesn't mean this season will not be as lit as the previous ones.
With just less than a month left for the series to premiere, here's everything you need to know about the forthcoming season of 'The Voice' season 17.
Release Date

Plot
According to NBC, "The four-time Emmy Award-winning The Voice returns with the strongest vocalists from across the country invited to compete in the blockbuster vocal competition show's new season. The show's innovative format features five stages of competition: the Blind Auditions, then the Battle Rounds, Knockouts, Playoffs and, finally, the Live Performance Shows. The singers with the lowest number of votes will be sent home each week. In the end, one will be named The Voice and will receive the grand prize of a recording contract."
