How much longer does American Idol have left?

Well, seeing as how they have Nikki Minaj on there and I couldn't tell you if I've even heard one of her songs ever, I'd say that it is in the final throes.


I mean, who the frick is she?

The utters almost out of milk at this point but I suspect they will keep jerking for at least 1 more season.

Realistically, probably another 4 or 5 seasons. It's in the ground and Fox just has to squeeze every last dollar they can out of it.

Then they'll bring it back 5 years later...

The only entertaining thing about Idol now is seeing which entertainer is in desperate enough need of publicity to judge. At least JLo got a bit of resurgence out of her stint. Doesn't look like that's gonna happen with Mariah this round. Look to see the bottom of the barrel to start being targeted for the following seasons judges.

How has it been on the air this long?

My wife still watches the show. I hate J-Lo. count. Mariah is a huge one too. Even when she complimenting someone she manages to make it about her. Nicki M. is actually pretty funny. She's my favorite judge. Randy "Yo yo yo" and the country dude are alright. Hell, just get rid of Mariah and the show is 10x better. I never understood the point of having 4 judges.

My wife got me started on it. I always route for the quirky and unique performers.

I will say that I don't like the boring ballads they often start singing when the pack is still really narrowed down.

The interesting thing about idol is that the winners are often not the most successful after the show. This probably has more to do with voting demographic than talent.

In 2-3 years they'll try some brand new format that will drum up a little more notoriety, like an all star event for all the winners/finalist that haven't done shite since.

I do agree with Fox cancelling it, then bringing it back 5 years later.

Should have ended when Cowell left
