Is anyone else looking forward to this show? My daughter's best friend is in the Houston choir. I'm really excited for this to start. I've never known a "reality contestant" before this show.

I remember seeing the commercials for this last week. Thanks for reminding me it was on tonight! I am really looking forward to this show. What a treat for the holiday season and something the whole family can watch.

It's on NBC at 8 EST, 7 CST. I believe it's on for the first 4 days of this week.

Yes, I plan on watching it this week. I've been looking for something a bit more entertaining since Dancing with the Stars ended. I love music, so I'm hoping that this show will be entertaining and fun!

I would think that choosing music that best presents your choir's strengths would be a part of the competition -

There wasn't a stinker in the groups. Glad it 'll be over sooner than later.

I really enjoyed the show. I think Patti LaBelle's choir sounded the most professional of the group. I think I was partial to Kelly Rowland's choir because of their song choice, "Freedom". I've always really liked that song and they did seem to put a lot of feeling into it. I think their performance really showed off their choir as a whole. They were all very good, but I think my top three tonight, in my personal taste, were Team Rowland, Team LaBelle, and Team Lachey.

I needed a break from the Jon & Kate + 8 trainwreck, so topped to watch Clash. Blake Shelton is one of the nicest men in country music, so I'm on Team Shelton. Patti's choir was incredible, they gave me goosebumps.

Turned over after the Grinch. So far they have shown how people were chosen for the choir. Nice to see a range of ages.

So far I loved Team Lachey and then others were ok... so far Team Rowland would go home for me.. and Team LaBelle is blowing me away right now.. I guess if I had to choose a third one it would be Team Bolton. But really, they all had heart and I'd love to be sitting there in that audience.

I wanted to like Patty Labelle's group, I really tried. but WOW, a few voices absolutely dominated the choir. I also found it a little strident. I liked all the others as they seemed more 'evenly arranged'. Loved the song choices. I have a question. Are choirs something big in the usa? like cheerleading squads etc I'm straining my brain trying to think of the last Choir I've ever seen advertised. I think that in the local theatre we get the occasional British/ Welsh mens Choir and sometimes african/caribbean.

Loved this show! did think the 'judging' was rather lame...like they would say something bad?? I thought it was interesting that the two group singers did a better job of having 'one voice'. Michael Bolton's was just a guy with a really great back up group. Patti's was spiritual!

Wow, I really disliked Patti Labelle's choir. I thought it was more of two voices than an entire choir and it came across to me as screaming. I liked the rest of them well enough, but think I am Team Lachey.

Is this really a competition? Seems more like an exhibition to me. That one woman lost 140lbs. WOW!

I thought they were all really good but right now I am on Team Lachey and Team Shelton. Blake Shelton sure is a lot hotter now that he cut his hair! I hope in the end that all teams win a little money because there really are no bad teams in this competition.

I think that Team Bolton should go home tonight, but I bet his celebrity will save him for a while. I thought if you were just judging last night's performance that was the worst. I loved the show tho

Sunshyne, I don't think choirs are big like cheerleading in the US. I think this is just a mutation of American Idol and Dancing with the stars. It is "American Singing with the Stars via assembling a choir", LOL. I only know of two choirs, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the SF Gay Mens Choir (I think that is what it is called, although "Gay Men" seems a bit repetitive, LOL).

I'm on the team Lachey wagon too. I thought they were all entertaining but Labelle & Lachey stood out a bit more than the others IMO. Bolton's fame will save him (even though I probably think he had the weakest performance). I'm guesing either Shelton or Rowland go home tonight.

Harlem Boy's Choir is pretty awesome. Most schools and churches are pretty proud of their choirs. I think the reason we got all the 'heart string' stories is due to the fact that the winning teams' prize goes to charity.
