The Voice Season 4 Blind Auditions recap

Now that we are done with the blind auditions, I will make my assumptions on who will stay longer on the competition for each team, my basis would be their auditions plus their charisma and stage presence. I will also include which team is the strongest and weakest. Let's see if we have the same picks.

STRONGEST TEAM:

#TeamADAM @adamlevine

I chose Team Adam as the strongest team because of Judith Hill. 90% of my decision was simply because of her. She can win this. No doubt that she is the person to beat this season. I just hope she sustains her intensity and improve every week!

Members of Team Adam that I think will also do well in the competition:

- Sarah Simmons, MidasWhale, Sasha Allen and Duncan Kamakana. 

Not behind by far, #TeamUSHER @UsherRaymondIV . His team is my 2nd team to beat, although  he wasn't able to get Judith Hill(which I still think would be the perfect fit for her) he was still able to form a very strong team!

Save the best for the last! I think Usher got two-three singers who could be with him until the end. And that is a good thing for him! 

In my opinion, any of Vedo, Ryan Innes and Jessica Childress can totally be with him until the end and win The Voice!

Usher has a deep team, probably the most talented team this season, he still has Josiah Hawley, Michelle Chamuel and Jeff Lewis!

Third team, #TeamBlake @BlakeShelton

Definitely Blake has come up to win this one for the third straight time, and I was right about him getting Cassadee all the way to end and she eventually won! I think his team is not that strong this year, but definitely two talented great singers are on his team!

Danielle Bradbery and Christian Porter will be his main guns for me.

He still has the Morgan Twins and the Swon Brothers to back him up.

#TeamSHAKIRA @Shakira

I'm still having second thoughts about her team, but she definitely has one of my favorites, and she is very lucky because he might bring her until the end!

Kris Thomas will be her main guy, and I am confident that he will be the last guy standing on Team Shakira. But the likes of Cathia and Monique Abbadie, the Latina singers are also forces to be reckoned with! Luke Edgemon is also good!

I can't wait for the battle rounds!! :]

Do you agree with me? Who are your favorites?

The Voice Season 4 Episodes 5-6

I was expecting a lot since this will be the last 2 episodes of the blind auditions and I am glad that they delivered. Some are good but only few stood out for me. The judges clearly showed that they mean business! I really enjoyed all the cat fights, and the fights between Blake and Adam, and also Blake and Usher! Shakira also is doing her thing! :) They're all amazing!

Jeff Lewis -  sang an Usher song, I can see him go far in this competition. He's new, original and definitely has the voice.

Caroline Glaser - she is way up there! She is really good! The nerves are still there, but she really did great! I'm a big fan of hers!

Mary Miranda - Latinas represent! She was good but I think Shakira already has too much Latina on her team! Cathia and Monique are better than her.

My new favorite! He is good! Ryan Innes! He sang Gravity! This man will go places! Usher got a lot of good talents on his team!

Luke Edgemon and Jessica Childress are definitely on the top of my list! They're the best! Definitely save the best for the last! I was more impressed with the Episode 06 than the Episode 05!

Can't wait for the Battle rounds to start! Thoughts: Usher and Shakira are really doing well as new coaches, I can't wait to see them train their team come battle rounds.  Team Usher all the way!

Keep The Faith.

Series Talk #2: Raising Hope

I've been watching a lot of TV series and majority of the stories i'm watching are about families. Since I am also a family man, I really enjoy show that tackles the adventures and happenings within the family and how they are able to get through the problems and trials.

James "Jimmy" Chance is a clueless 25-year-old who impregnates a serial killer during a one-night-stand. Earning custody of his daughter after the mother is sentenced to death and electrocuted, Jimmy relies on his eccentric but well-intentioned family for support in raising the child.

Since I am just on the first season, I still have to give my full review about the series but after 14 episodes of Season 1, I am really hooked up and I can't wait to see more of Raising Hope. 

What I like about Raising Hope:

* Cool Parents (Virginia and Burt Chance)

* Laid back set up, the ambiance of the show is just very nice to watch

* Right mix of everything: Comedy, Love, Romance, Action all packed into one!

* Cute baby Hope!

* Maw Maw's craziness

I highly recommend that you guys check out Raising Hope! :] Family first above all right? :]

Keep the Faith.

The Voice Season 4 Episode 04

After catching the latest episode of The Voice, I can't help but wonder where are those great talents that we've been looking for? This episode felt flat for me. The only thing that made me finish this episode was the judges. It is really damn good to have this kind of really great judges.

I can't really say anything that much about this episode, I just hope they'll do good in the competition. However, I would like to point out some things, Shakira should really choose wisely. I felt that she filled up the slots easily without really thinking about the right decision to do. And the last one would be for country artists who will be joining The Voice, I don't have anything against Blake Shelton but it would be really great to surprise the world, like choose Usher, Shakira and Adam. You don't want to be on the same boat with people singing the same style as yours. You want to standout, do a bold choice.

I still envy every single contestant that will be mentored by Usher! Like man, USHER! THE USHER! 

I still have to download their studio versions, but I'm sure it's really good!

Series Talk #1: Modern Family

Another new on my blog! Series talk contains my comments and thoughts regarding the different tv shows that I am watching. I will probably do 1-2 Series Talk every week and I hope you can give your insights too by simply commenting on this article. :]

First on my Series Talk is probably the second most favorite TV Series. The first one, is a no brainer, since I've been a nerd and die-hard Chuck fan for years, but for this time I would like to do a review for MODERN FAMILY.

Here are some of the information about Modern Family:

Modern Family is an American comedy which debuted on ABC on September 23, 2009. Presented in mockumentary style, the fictional characters frequently talk directly into the camera. It tells of Jay Pritchett, his second wife, baby son and stepson, and his two children and their families.

The show revolves around three families who are interrelated through Jay Prichett and his children, Claire and Mitchell. Jay (Ed O'Neill), the patriarch, is re-married to a much younger woman, Gloria (Sofía Vergara), a passionateColombian woman, with whom he has a baby son, Fulgencio (Joe) Pritchett; and a 14-year-old son from Gloria's previous relationship, Manny (Rico Rodriguez). Jay's daughter Claire (Julie Bowen) is a homemaker married to Phil Dunphy (Ty Burrell), a real estate agent and self-professed "cool dad". They have three children: Haley (Sarah Hyland) the stereotypical ditzy teenage girl, Alex (Ariel Winter), the nerdy, smart middle child and Luke (Nolan Gould), the offbeat only son. Jay's son Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson), a lawyer, and his partner, Cameron (Eric Stonestreet), have an adopted Vietnamese child, Lily (Aubrey Anderson-Emmons).


My Talk:

I liked this show simply because it has the mixture of everything. Comedy-Love-Family-Drama-Romance all wrap into once show! The humor of the show is for all ages and I can definitely say that families can watch this show together. Phil Dunphy is my favorite on this show. His actions, words just get through me. I laugh every time he does something! His relationship with his children is also admirable. They are very close to each other.

Series Grade: 10/10

Series Problem:

So far, I cannot think of anything that can affect the show. I hope they continue to be awesome and I'm sure they are here for a long time. Pritchett family is the best!
