UNIVERSAL CITY, CALIFORNIA: 'The Voice' aired its 2-hour-long finale result episode on December 19, and fans are not happy. As viewers of the NBC show eagerly waited to see their favorite singer get crowned the title of Season 24, they seemed dissatisfied with the show delaying the result with too many guest performances.

Season 24 of 'The Voice' will select the winner on Tuesday when host Carson Daly delivers America's choice. The star-studded finale included special performances from chart-topping musicians as well as duets by finalists and coaches Niall Horan, John Legend, Reba McEntire, and Gwen Stefani.

On X, fans begged, "Why is everybody and their mama performing…pls just give me the winner."

While another user chimed in, "I just have zero patience these days, they could have made this show 5 mins. Bring final 4 out, say “the winner is blah blah” balloons, confetti, applause show over. I would be ok with it."



 



 

One user further wrote, "2 hours of nonsense just to announce the winner? No thanks. I’ll have to look tomorrow at who won."

A fourth user sighed, "Man... #TheVoice knows how to drag something out as loooooong as possible." 



 



 

"Come on now, it’s my bed time, just tell us who won," quipped another.

One user wrote, "This entire finale could have been an email."
