The Voice on November 2: Cut Week starts at 9pm Eastern

Change that 8pm reminder

The Voice starts at 9pm Eastern on Monday, November 2, 2026, on NBC. Cut Week occupies the slot through 11pm Eastern, equivalent to 8pm to 10pm Central.

NBC’s dated schedule puts this episode an hour later than the October Battles. Use the November 2 listing when setting a reminder, rather than the season-premiere time still shown in some general programme descriptions.

Cut Week comes before the Live Shows

Each coach chooses two artists to advance directly, while the remaining five compete for one more team place. A public selection adds another artist to complete the live Top 13.

NBC lists November 9 as the start of the Live Shows. The Cut Week previews on the programme page are clips, rather than a substitute for the full November 2 episode.

Peacock catch-up is the next day

NBC says new episodes reach Peacock the day after their broadcast. For Cut Week, that means Tuesday, November 3. These notices do not give an exact on-demand release hour.

The remaining season runs on Mondays. NBC lists November 9, 16, 23 and 30, plus December 7, from 9pm to 10pm Eastern. The December 14 finale runs from 9pm to 11pm Eastern.
