Season 11 of 'The Voice' kicks off Tonight at 8 p.m. on Local 4 with a two-night premiere event.
Superstars Miley Cyrus and Alicia Keys join coaches Adam Levine and Blake Shelton and host Carson Daly this season. For the first time, a pair of female coaches will command the red chairs for NBC's immensely popular musical competition series.The two-time Emmy Award-winning show returns showcasing extraordinary talent from across the country.
The show's innovative format features five stages of competition: the first begins with the blind auditions, followed by the battle rounds, the knockouts, the live playoffs and, finally, the live performance shows.
At 10 p.m. on Local 4, following 'The Voice' 2-hour premiere, is 'The Good Place,' a new comedy starring Kristen Bell and Ted Danson. Check it out.
From Executive Producer Michael Schur ("Brooklyn Nine-Nine," "Parks and Recreation" and "Master of None") it's a smart, unique new comedy about what makes a good person. The show follows Eleanor Shellstrop (Kristen Bell, "House of Lies," "Veronica Mars"), an ordinary woman who enters the afterlife and, thanks to some kind of error, is sent to the Good Place instead of the Bad Place, which is definitely where she belongs. While hiding in plain sight from Michael (Ted Danson, "CSI," "Cheers"), the wise architect of the Good Place (who doesn't know he's made a mistake), she's determined to shed her old way of living and discover the awesome (or, at least, the pretty good) person within.
Helping Eleanor navigate her new surroundings are Chidi (William Jackson Harper, "Paterson"), her kind, open-hearted "soul mate" who sees the good in people but finds himself facing quite a dilemma; her seemingly perfect new neighbors, Tahani (Jameela Jamil, "Playing It Straight") and Jianyu (Manny Jacinto, "The Romeo Section"); and Janet (D'Arcy Carden, "Broad City"), the go-to source for any and all information in the Good Place.
In addition to executive producing, Schur also serves as writer and showrunner. David Miner ("Brooklyn Nine-Nine," "30 Rock"), Morgan Sackett ("Parks and Recreation," "Veep") and Drew Goddard (Oscar-nominated writer of "The Martian") also executive produce. Goddard directed the pilot.
