    Season 54 of The Price Is Right Is Coming—Here’s What We Know About the Fall Premiere

    When Does ‘The Price Is Right’ Return With New Episodes?

    The Price Is Right aired a special July 4 episode dedicated to first responders to the California wildfires of 2025. That was the last episode for a while from the beloved game show, which is also daytime TV’s top-rated daytime series. So, when will one of audience’s favorite games return with new episodes?

    It was a milestone year for the hit series as it celebrated the 10,000th episode of The Price Is Right on February 26, 2025, on CBS. It was part of The Price Is Right Season 53, which premiered on September 23, 2024, and continued through June 27, with the July 4 bonus episode tacked onto the end of the season last week. The show is now on a summer vacation, but it will come back later this year.

    When does The Price Is Right return?

    The Price Is Right Season 54 will likely premiere in September 2025, with The Price Is Right at Night slated to air on Wednesdays at 9/8c starting in January 2026 (see the CBS fall 2025 schedule here).

    An exact premiere date will be announced at a later time, but the game show has premiered at the end of September for several years in a row now.

    Given that episodes air daily on CBS, expect a Monday premiere date for its return. We’d predict that Season 54 will kick off on either Monday, September 22, or Monday, September 29. It will likely air in its usual time slot of 11a/10c on weekday mornings.

    The Price Is Right' Says Farewell To Television City

    Where can I watch episodes of The Price Is Right?

    While you wait for the return, past episodes of The Price Is Right — including installments from Season 53 — can be streamed on Paramount+. There are always Price Is Right reruns airing somewhere on TV throughout the year, so Drew Carey and late former host Bob Barker are never too far.

  • John Legend Spills the Truth About The Voice Winner—And It’s Not What Fans Expected

    John Legend Spills the Truth About The Voice Winner—And It’s Not What Fans Expected

    The John Legend Revelation That ‘The Voice’ Winner Asher HaVon Says “Hits Me in My Gut” and “Ignites a Fire to My Destiny”

    Even before Asher HaVon won The Voice, he understood the pressure that comes with performing on the stage. Having shared his voice with his church choir over the years, the singer also performed in front of former President Barrack Obama when he visited Selma, Alabama.

    Eventually finding his way to The Voice, the winner explained how he entered the competition broken and how John Legend’s father offered him high praise with Legend calling him the “Best vocalist in the competition.”

    Although HaVon teamed with Reba McEntire to dominate season 25 of The Voice, Legend understood the power behind the singer’s voice. And caring about the music, Legend revealed during the competition, “My dad texted me this week and said, ‘Asher is the Voice,’ Now, I’m a little biased toward my team, but I will say this: No matter what other factors people are voting on, I think you’re the best vocalist in this competition. And you show that with every song, no matter what you sing.”

    Speaking with Parade, HaVon shared his thoughts on the compliment and how it helped solidify his destiny as a singer. “I’ve never heard that in my life. Of course, I believe in myself and I think that I do well. I think I do well because if you practice at something, you become really good at it. So, I think I’m a good singer because I’ve practiced all my life. But it’s different from when your Mama tells you that. She’s your Mama and she’s supposed to say nice things, but when John Legend’s dad says it, it hits me in my gut and almost ignites a fire to my destiny…”

    Asher HaVon Shares He Felt Safe In Reba McEntire’s “Smile”

    While gaining high praise throughout the competition, HaVon explained how he continued to struggle with imposter syndrome.

    Not believing he belonged there, he insisted, “I didn’t feel worthy to be here. I thought it was a joke. I thought they felt sorry for me. They heard my sad story and they had me on the show. Getting the chair turn was the greatest validation I’ve ever received in my life. For no one to know what I look like, but only my voice alone touching these mega stars to turn around. And when Reba turned around and our eyes locked and that smile, I felt safe in a smile that felt familiar and warm.”

    With HaVon’s voice and Reba’s guidance, it seemed the perfect match as the singer eventually found himself the latest winner of The Voice.

    Carson Daly Reveals Trouble Blake Shelton Caused On ‘The Voice’

    Blake Shelton and Carson Daly

    Carson Daly recently revealed the trouble Blake Shelton caused on The Voice. The show recently revealed the four coaches who will be in the red chairs next season.

    Fans were hoping that Blake Shelton was going to return. However, that may never be the case. The host, Carson, wanted fans to know what challenges they had to face due to Blake. Keep reading to find out more.

    Four Coaches Announced

    The Voice has revealed who is going to be the four coaches in the next season of the show. There are two new coaches and two familiar faces that will be returning. Michael Bublé and Snoop Dog are going to try their hand at coaching next season. Fans are curious to see how this is going to play out. Reba Mcintire will be returning to the show.

    Some fans are not happy about that. However, there is another coach who will be returning that fans did not like. Gwen Stefani is going to be back on the show. Although fans did not like that she was returning, they hoped this meant Blake would return in the future due to them being married.

    The Trouble Blake Shelton Caused

    Carson Daly revealed the trouble Blake Shelton caused on The Voice. It seems his exit made it hard for them.

    “To try and succeed in a post-Blake Shelton world — he was the least known star when we started, yet ironically got the biggest bounce from the show and left the biggest star of anybody on the panel. Arguably, he will go down as one of the biggest stars in the history of NBC as a network, as a TV star. I mean, The Voice is really part sitcom hidden as a singing competition. And a lot of that’s because the personality of Blake and Adam [Levine]. He’s been sort of at the epicenter of our paneling. So in a post-Blake world, that’s where Reba McEntire comes in.”

    Blake did not cause trouble in a bad way necessarily. He just made it challenging to find someone as good as him.

    It seems Blake was a popular judge, and they did not know how they were going to replace him. However, they could not expect him to stay on the show forever.

    With Gwen coming back to the show, it is possible Blake may return in the future. If not as a coach, maybe he will return as a mentor for his wife’s team. What do you think about it all? Sound off in the comments below.

  • Reba McEntire Breaks Records on The Voice

    Reba McEntire Breaks Records on The Voice

    ‘The Voice’: Asher HaVon on Being the First Openly LGBTQ+ Winner and Working With Reba McEntire (Exclusive)

    Asher made ‘The Voice’ history on Tuesday as Reba’s first winner — and the first openly LGBTQ+ ‘Voice’ champion.

    Reba McEntire won her first-ever title on The Voice with season 25 singer Asher HaVon — and that wasn’t the only bit of history the duo made on Tuesday.

    ET’s Cassie DiLaura caught up with the singer and his winning coach following the big announcement to get their thoughts on Asher being the first-ever openly LGBTQ+ singer to win the NBC singing competition. (Season 8 winner Sawyer Fredericks came out as bisexual in 2022 — seven years after winning the show at age 16.)

    “I am so proud to be a part of that community, and I just pray that everything that I’ve done on this show have inspired them all that, they can do the same thing,” Asher marveled.

    “Working with a queen like this,” he praised his coach, who applauded his victory, “thank y’all so much.”

    Reba shared that she was “tickled to pieces” to notch her first Voice victory since joining the show last season, adding, “It feels wonderful.”

    “But I got to say something about The Voice — look how Asher is dressed,” she continued. “Every time you got on stage, you looked regal.  You presented yourself with regalness. I was so proud of him.”

    The tears kept flowing for the duo as Asher joked, “I put too much mascara on!”

    “But I was so excited,” he added. “My heart was filled with so much gratitude and to look at Reba and to see her excitement, it was everything.”

    As for the lessons the duo learned from one another, Asher joked, “I’ve been crying most of our sessions [so I don’t know] what you can learn!”

    However, Reba recalled one important bonding moment.

    “There was one song you were going to sing, and you said, ‘I don’t know how I’m going to perform this — I don’t know, I can’t relate to it,’” she recalled. “I said, ‘Think of somebody who can relate to it and channel that.’ That’s what I’ve been doing for 30, 40 years in my business. If I am singing about a situation I’ve never dealt with, channel somebody who has.”

    Asher surprised some when he joined Team Reba after earning a three-chair turn for his Blind Audition performance of Adele’s “Set Fire to the Rain.” However, he’s been a team standout since, winning both his Battle — with “We Don’t Need Another Hero” by Tina Turner — and Knockout — with a show-stopping performance of Toni Braxton’s “Un-Break My Heart.”

    He busted out another epic performance in the Playoffs, lending his vocal power to “Titanum” by David Guetta and Sia before showing his versatility in the live shows, with Boyz II Men’s seductive “I’ll Make Love to You” and the Beyoncé breakup ballad “Irreplaceable.”

    Asher showed off even more of his range in the first night of the finale taking on two iconic divas with Donna Summer’s “Last Dance” and Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You.”

    Asher and Reba kept it old school with their finale performance, taking the stage with a rendition of Patti LaBelle and Michael McDonald’s “On My Own.”

    ET spoke with the season 25 coaches ahead of part one of the finale on Monday night, and Reba shared how excited she was for the star-studded finale, which also featured performances from The Black Keys, Jelly Roll, Kate Hudson, Lainey Wilson, Muni Long, Thomas Rhett, and season 24 winner Gina Miles.

    “So many great entertainers hitting the building,” she marveled. “Not only the artists who have been competing all this time for The Voice trophy but our guest stars. I’m so thrilled!”

    Just a few weeks ago, The Voice welcomed 40 aspiring artists to compete for a chance at stardom. But with the finale a few days away, only five remain. Throughout season 25, coaches Reba McEntire, John Legend, Chance the Rapper, and Dan + Shay have offered their teams priceless advice.

    While season 25 isn’t over just yet, it appears the show is already looking ahead to next season. And for those who loved the coaches this season, The Voice decided to shake things up for season 26.

    While season 25 might be ending, The Voice is already getting fans excited for the fall premiere of season 26. Although Legend, Chance the Rapper, and the charismatic duo of Dan + Shay enjoyed their time on the show, they will all exit after the season finale.

    With three open chairs, The Voice announced that along with Reba, Snoop Dogg and Michael Bublé would be entering the competition as new coaches. The news is somewhat of a shocker for both fans and even Reba.

    When speaking with Access Hollywood about the new lineup and what advice she would give them, the hitmaker admitted, “I don’t think I could give them any advice that they wouldn’t already know. They’re going to have a blast. They’re going to love doing the show because it’s fun and you get to listen to so many talented people get up there and sing.” Although not offering much advice for the upcoming season, Reba insisted, “We’ll have a fun time.”

    Reba McEntire Not The Only Veteran Coach Returning For Season 26

    For those keeping count, that is only three coaches. While Reba welcomed the newcomers, the fourth chair will not go to a new star but a seasoned professional Gwen Stefani. That’s right.

    While fans hated watching her and Blake Shelton leave the show, the singer will return for season 26. Sadly, she will be leaving Shelton at home. Still, with a lineup full of stars, the new season already has fans excited to see what is in store.

    While promoting the new season, the remaining contestants will determine their fate on the season 25 finale, which airs on Monday, May 20, and Tuesday, May 21. For Monday’s show, the start time is 8:00 p.m. ET/PT on NBC. And for Tuesday, the starting time is pushed one hour to 9:00 p.m. ET/PT. And as always, for those who might not have cable, they can watch all episodes streaming the following day on Peacock.

    Kelly Clarkson’s First Outing Since Brandon Blackstock’s Death Hints at Her Emotional State

    Kelly Clarkson’s First Outing Since Brandon Blackstock’s Death Hints at Her Emotional State

    Kelly Clarkson is slowly making her way back to the spotlight after the death of her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock.

    The 43-year-old talk show host was spotted at LAX after jetting into the international terminal in Los Angeles on Aug. 23. According to Page Six, which obtained the photos, she was joined by her sister, Alyssa, and her two children, River, 11, and Remington, 9.

    The appearance was described by the media outlet as “somber” as Clarkson was dressed in an all-black ALO leisurewear ensemble and accessorized with dark sunglasses and an oversized black cowboy hat. With tons of suitcases in tow, she’s likely in town to continue filming Season 29 of The Voice after taking a short hiatus to mourn her ex.

    Despite their contentious divorce and subsequent court battles, Clarkson was concerned about her kids’ well-being in the wake of his death.

    “While I normally keep my personal life private, this past year, my children’s father has been ill and at this moment, I need to be fully present for them,” she wrote on her Instagram page just hours ahead of Blackstock’s passing. “I am sincerely sorry to everyone who bought tickets to the shows, and I so appreciate your grace, kindness, and understanding.”

    The Daily Mail revealed Clarkson’s reported complicated feelings about the situation.

    “She separated her personal feelings about Brandon after the divorce, and she progressed from there,” a source explained. “While it was frustrating to deal with him in divorce, once the cancer came into the situation, she felt bad; it took a toll on her because she had to think of her kids’ feelings and to protect them.”

    After Blackstock’s death, Clarkson reportedly “doesn’t feel great,” but keeping River and Remington close by is “helping her to cope with the onslaught of emotions.” It’s going to be a long road ahead because the last five years were filled with a rough divorce, legal bombshells, Blackstock’s relationship with her assistant, and his secret battle with cancer.

    There is a lot to unpack for the entire family, so Clarkson is easing her way back to public life.

    After Heartbreak, Reba McEntire Shares a Moment of Light—Fans Celebrate Her Resilience and Spirit

    Fans Relieved to See Reba McEntire’s Positive Post After Losing Stepson Brandon Blackstock: PHOTO

    Fans were relieved to see Reba McEntire having a little fun in a post she shared on August 21, 2025 — two weeks after “The Voice” coach lost her stepson, Brandon Blackstock, at age 48. McEntire shared a photo of her and her longtime love, actor Rex Linn, backstage with country star Kenny Chesney after seeing one of his residency shows at The Sphere in Las Vegas. However, the photo was two months old.

    McEntire captioned the post, “Never thought I’d go to the beach inside a sphere in Las Vegas but thanks to my friend @kennychesney I sure did 🏝️”

    The photo was actually from June, when the couple attended Chesney’s show, but McEntire’s first since sharing a tribute to Brandon on August 12, whom she called her “stepson/eldest son.” Brandon, who died after a three-year battle with melanoma, was the son of McEntire’s ex-husband, Narvel Blackstock, to whom she was married from 1989 to 2015. McEntire had remained close with Brandon, who was also the ex-husband of Kelly Clarkson.

    Among the fans who noted what a tough time she’s been going through, one wrote, “Hard couple of weeks for you and family, glad your’e doing something fun :)”

    Another commented, “That’s 3 pairs of kind smiling eyes 👀 with big hearts ❤️ Let the music flow 🎵”

    Others were hopeful that McEntire’s post about Vegas signaled she might be considering a new residency there. She and country duo Brooks & Dunn ended a six-year residency at the Collosseum at Caesar’s Palace in 2021.

    One fan wrote, “👀 Maybe we get to see you perform here in the near future ?? Oh how awesome that would be!! Reba at the @thespherelas 🔥🙌❤️”

    McEntire has a busy week of filming ahead in Los Angeles. According to ticketing outlet 1iota, she will be on the set of her NBC sitcom “Happy’s Place,” filming on August 26.

    On August 28 and 29, McEntire is due on “The Voice” soundstage, where she’ll be taping the Knockout Rounds for season 28 with Snoop Dogg, Niall Horan, and Michael Bublé. She also filmed Battle Rounds earlier in the month, shortly after Brandon’s death.

    On August 18, “The Voice” host Carson Daly told Us Weekly that the show’s cast and crew have been supporting McEntire and Clarkson, who’s been filming episodes for 2026’s season 29, through their grief.

    “It’s been tough,” Daly told the outlet. “We all knew Brandon well, and we are a family. I was working with (Reba) last week, everything was fresh, so we’ve just been sending our prayers and support to them. It’s a terrible situation.”

    “It’s really no different than what you would do for your family members,” Daly continued “You let them know you’re there, you’re praying for them [and] you’re giving them space at the same time.”

    Shifting Gears is expanding Riley’s (Kat Dennings) world in the upcoming second season. A new report reveals that comedian and A Little Late host Lilly Singh has joined the show. Singh plays Jen, Riley’s new friend. Like Riley, she’s a mom, and “the two click instantly, but their relationship is derailed by unexpected mama drama.” The date for Singh’s debut has not been revealed.

    The comedian/actor makes the fourth new addition to the hit sitcom in the upcoming season. Tim Allen‘s Home Improvement costars Patricia RichardsonRichard Karn, and Debbe Dunning will appear in the Season 2 premiere to support Matt.

    Singh’s background as a comedian can be traced back to the early YouTube culture. She rose to prominence on the platform for sharing her hilarious comedy skits, amassing over fourteen million subscribers. She pivoted to late night television in 2019 when she hosted A Little Late with Lily Singh on NBC, but the show was cancelled after two seasons. Despite receiving a positive reception from critics, the show failed to resonate with the audience.

    Singh has been involved in numerous voice acting projects over the past several years, including The Muppet Mayhem and The Bad Guys. Her foray into scripted comedy comes on the heels of successful transitions by YouTube comedians like Benito Skinner (Overcompensating) and Brian Jordan Alvarez (English Teacher).

    Shifting Gears follows Matt, the stubborn, widowed owner of a classic car restoration shop. When his estranged daughter, Riley, and her kids move into his house, the real restoration begins. The show also stars Seann William Scott as Gabriel, Daryl Chill Mitchell as Stitch, Maxwell Simkins as Carter, and Barrett Margolis as Georgia.
