The Voice is not on Paramount Plus

The Voice airs on NBC and streams on Peacock, NBC's streaming service. Paramount Plus does not carry The Voice, whether current seasons or past episodes. If you have a Paramount Plus subscription, you will not find the show there.

The show has aired on NBC since 2011 and remains exclusive to NBC and Peacock. Paramount Plus carries other competition and reality shows — including Survivor, The Amazing Race, and Love Island — but The Voice is not among them. The rights to stream The Voice belong to Peacock, which is owned by the same parent company as NBC.

Key Takeaways

  • The Voice streams on Peacock, not Paramount Plus, because NBC and Peacock are owned by the same company.
  • Current seasons air live on NBC and become available on Peacock shortly after broadcast.
  • Peacock offers both free and paid tiers; some episodes are free, while others require a paid subscription.
  • Past seasons of The Voice are available on Peacock, though not all seasons may be available at once.

How to watch The Voice on Peacock

To watch The Voice, you need a Peacock account. Peacock offers a free tier and a paid tier (Peacock Premium). Some episodes of The Voice are available on the free tier, but the most recent episodes and full seasons typically require a Peacock Premium subscription.

Create a Peacock account at peacock.com or through the Peacock app on your phone, tablet, or streaming device. You can sign up with an email address or link an existing NBC.com account. If you choose the free tier, you will see ads during playback. The Premium tier removes most ads and costs around $6 per month with ads or $12 per month without ads, though pricing varies by region and promotional offers.

After you log in, search for "The Voice" in the Peacock search bar. New episodes typically appear on Peacock within hours of their NBC broadcast. You can watch on-demand rather than waiting for a live air time.

When The Voice episodes air and stream

The Voice typically airs new episodes on Monday and Tuesday nights on NBC during its season, which usually runs from fall through spring. The exact schedule changes year to year. Check NBC.com or the Peacock app for the current season's air dates.

Episodes become available on Peacock shortly after they broadcast on NBC — usually the same night or the next morning. If you miss a live broadcast, you can watch the episode on-demand through Peacock at any time during the season and beyond.

What seasons are available on Peacock

Peacock carries multiple past seasons of The Voice, though the full catalog changes. Not every season from the show's history is always available. Peacock typically keeps recent seasons and rotates older ones, so if you are looking for a specific season, check the app to see what is currently there.

The show has had over 20 seasons across its run, and Peacock usually has at least several recent seasons available at any given time. If a particular season is not currently on Peacock, it may return later or become available through other means.

Why The Voice is not on Paramount Plus

Streaming rights for television shows are sold separately, and NBC owns the exclusive streaming rights to The Voice through Peacock. Paramount Plus is owned by Paramount Global, a different company, and does not have the rights to carry The Voice.

Paramount Plus does carry shows from CBS, MTV, Nickelodeon, and other Paramount-owned networks, but The Voice belongs to NBC's ecosystem. This is why you will find it only on NBC and Peacock, not on competing streaming services.

Other singing competition shows on Paramount Plus

If you are looking for singing or music competition shows and have Paramount Plus, the service carries other options. These include shows like The Masked Singer (which also airs on Fox), though availability varies. Check your Paramount Plus app under the "Competition" or "Reality" category to see what is currently available.

Many singing competition shows are spread across different networks and streaming services, so if The Voice is the show you want to watch, Peacock is your only option. If you are open to similar shows, Paramount Plus may have alternatives depending on what is in rotation.
