As The Voice prepares to return for Season 30 this fall on the 2026 TV schedule, its future is already being planned out. There have been rumors about the new coaches and also rumors about longtime host Carson Daly. And I was surprised how the rumors about Daly both did and did not pan out.
Just days ago, a source told The U.S. Sun that the former TRL host was stepping away from The Voice due to how demanding the schedule is. The singing competition tapes in LA, while Daly is still a co-host on the Today Show in New York. Plus, being away from his family has been hard, which also wouldn’t have been surprising. But The Voice typically films seasons back-to-back, so Daly choosing to step back for one season and not the other wouldn’t make sense. NBC has finally announced The Voice Season 31, and the Daly rumors seem to have actually been true. For the most part, at least.
