Season three of NBC’s a cappella competition show The Sing-Off will sport a new judge as Sara Bareilles joins Ben Folds and Shawn Stockman for the new season opening September 19 at 8p. Bareilles replaces Nicole Scherzinger and she appeared on the show’s finale last season. NBC has opted to make The Sing-Off a weekly competition show versus running a slew of eps in one week. In doing so, the show has doubled its number of episodes to 11 (up from five last season) and also a total of sixteen groups will now compete which is six more than last season. The expanded season will also allow viewers to know more of the contestant’s personal stories.
