The three judges replaced John Legend, Gwen Stefani, and Camila Cabello, all of whom had exited the panel for this season.

[16] On March 2, 2023, the show, via its online platforms, released the coaches' cover of Frankie Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes Off You".

Among the auditionees this episode was Miss Mississippi 2021 Holly Brand,[21][22] and former two-time American Idol contestant Savion Wright, who auditioned in this season as Noivas (stylized in all caps).

[26] Vinson's reappearance as part of the trio marked the first time that a former contestant, who advanced to the battles, returned to compete in a later season.

[27] At the end of the five blind auditions, Jimmy Fallon made a guest appearance singing "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)".

[33][34] Among the auditionees this episode was Kason Lester, who previously competed on the seventeenth season of American Idol.

For the first time in the show's history, there were no guest advisors for the battles, which meant the artists were mentored solely by their coaches.

At the end of this round, seven artists remained on each team; five were the battle winners, one was stolen from another coach; and one received a playoff pass.

In episode ten, Alex Whalen from Team Blake left the show due to undisclosed personal reasons; his opponent, Neil Salsich, performed alone and advanced to the knockouts by default.

This was the first playoffs to not be contested live since season 13; it was prerecorded and taped at the same stage as the prior two rounds, hence the lack of a interactive viewer voting component or a subsequent results episode.

This season, there are no instant save performances; instead, the public votes, in real time, to advance five artists to the finale, eliminating the remaining three from the competition.

During the episode, mega mentor Reba McEntire made a guest appearance, where it was revealed that she would replace Blake Shelton as a coach in the next season.

The following night, on Tuesday, the finalists performed a duet with their respective coaches before the results of the public vote were announced, and the winner of the season was named.

[55] At the end of the show, Gina Miles was named the winner, in the closest margin of victory as noted by Daly, surpassing season 12 between Chris Blue and Lauren Duski.
