NBC has announced that it will air this Saturday's SMASH up one hour. The episode, titled 'The Dress Rehearsal' will now air at 8:00PM - 09:00PM. Encores of "The Voice" and "Saturday Night Live" will now follow at 9:00/8:00c and 10:00/9:00c, respectively.

In 'The Dress Rehearsal,' as Tom (Christian Borle) and Julia (Debra Messing) race to ready "Bombshell" for previews, Tom's eagerness to prove himself may not be the best thing for the show. An onstage mishap forces Ivy (Megan Hilty) to make a choice, while tension mounts at "Hit List" as Karen (Katharine McPhee) becomes suspicious of Derek's (Jack Davenport) motives towards her. Anjelica Huston, Jeremy Jordan, Leslie Odom, Jr., Krysta Rodriguez and Andy Mientus also star. Jamey Sheridan and Jesse L. Martin guest star.

"THE VOICE"

The "blind auditions" continue and are held in front of a celebrity panel of coaches including, Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Shakira and Usher. The strongest vocalists from across the country compete to be selected by one of the coaches and fight for a chance to win the title of being named "The Voice." Christina Milian ("Be Cool") serves as Social Media Correspondent and Carson Daly ("Last Call with Carson Daly") hosts.
