When Do the Battle Rounds Start on The Voice Season 3?

If you turn on your television tonight hoping to get a ringside seat at the first of The Voice Season 3 battle rounds, expect to be disappointed. It looks like those producers, crafty ratings hounds that they are, will make us wait until next Monday (October 8) to see the newly formed teams duke it out.

The battle rounds, which pit teammates against each other until only half remain, are expected to be even more cutthroat this time around with the introduction of the new “Steal!” button that will allow coaches to get in on all the battling action.

In case you’re in danger of going into total Adam Levine withdrawal, however, you’re in luck! Tonight’s episode will be a “best of” the blind auditions, featuring highlights and previously-unaired, behind-the-scenes footage from the first few weeks.

At the very least, we’ll get to see a little more one-on-one time between Cee Lo Green and his pink feathered accessory, Lady, and that’s always a win in our book!
