Sing Off
The Sing Off determines which three artists from each team will advance to the final round of competition, the Semi Final. In this round, after an artist performs, he or she will sit in one of three seats above the stage. The first three artists performing from each team will sit down, but once the fourth artist performs, a coach has the choice of replacing the fourth artist with any artist sitting down or eliminating them immediately. Once all artists have performed, those who remain seated will advance to the Semi Final. The two Sing Off episodes was broadcast on 2 and 6 December.
