'The Voice' Fans Crushed After Adam Levine Exits
On Friday, May 24, it was announced that Adam Levine would not be returning to The Voice, [...]
Not the same
Many fans expressed disappointment, noting that the show just won't be the same without the original coach.
There's just no replacing Adam. You can put someone in that chair but you can't duplicate the way he interacts with Blake and the other coaches. This changes the whole dynamic of the show. 😭

Tuned out
A few viewers wrote that they won't be tuning in now that Levine won't be on their screens.
Don‘t know if I even continue to watch #TheVoice with @adamlevine gone 😔

Why?
Some wondered about the reasoning behind Levine's departure.
Sad to see Adam go but I will say he seemed a bit removed this year. I hope he's leaving on his terms and wish him the best.

This season it looked like he checked out. Just wasn’t feeling it anymore. I wish him luck other his new show.

prevnextI feel like this is a temper tantrum for bad decisions he himself has made the last few seasons. I hate that because I love him on and off the show, but to be honest, I felt this coming and was just talking to my husband about it even before the finale.

What about Blake?
The relationship between Shelton and Levine had become one of the cornerstones of the show, with many fans sad to see it go.
I’ll miss Adam and the bro banter between him and Blake! I so hope there was no rift in any way! He did a great job and was an outstanding coach!

Who’s @blakeshelton going to banter with? It won’t work with Gwen. Their too lovey 😂

Genre divide
There were also tweets about the musical style Levine brought to the show.
Please they need to change the show to country voice at this point #missingrockandroll #notacountrymusicfan

Gwen's return
Amid the news of Levine's departure, plenty of fans were thrilled about Stefani's return.
YES!!!! I'm crying of happiness right now!! This totally made my year! Welcome back @gwenstefani. I've Surely missed you on my TV. I'm soo looking forward to watching your beautiful, positive, endearing personality. I love you so much!

Excited to see Gwen again, but sad that Adam's leaving. The best coach chemistry was during the seasons that Gwen was there with both Blake and Adam.
