*Biggest Reality Show*:**NBC’s*"The Voice
"
*when*: Mondays and Tuesdays at 8
*Why*: Sorry Simon. Sure, Fox is the top-rated network, and its"*X Factor"adds Britney Spears this fall. Yet we still expect*"The Voice"*to edge out a victory over Cowell’s series based on how both shows previously performed. Viewers just seem to like*"The Voice"*format and judges a bit better.
Entertainment Weekly preaching truth...

Yet even in it's second season, the ratings weren't even that impressive. Yes, it got a boast from the Super Bowl, but failed to maintain a steady viewership and it slowly started to erode. While X Factor kept a steady medium throughout it's whole season.
It's finale didn't even outdo X Factors, via TVByTheNumbers:

It [X Factor] topped the finale of The Voice among adults 18-49 (3.8 v. 3.7) and average viewership (12.4m v. 11.0m).

And that was only with Paula and Nicole. It even beat The Voice's rating's in its first season as well.
Quote:
The Voice (Season 1):
Season Premiere: 11.78 Million
Season Finale: 11.05 Million
Overall Rank: #20
The X Factor (Season 1):
Season Premiere: 12.49 Million
Season Finale: 12.59 Million
Overall Rank: #17/18

So to say the viewers prefer it more is truly debatable, and the new judges haven't even aired yet, so that remains to be seen. But considering all the hype surrounding Demi and Britney, the forecast seems clear for X Factor.
