Curtis says
It should definitely be cancelled. For the past few years we’ve seen so many male winners, some of whom don’t make it past their Idol success. And there were surprise eliminations involving the female hopefuls who were considered front runners for each season. Plus the judges are often giving out negative reviews for mostly female performers while praising their male counterparts. These are the factors on why Idol’s ratings are dropping fast.
Ian says
I completely disagree. Idol is still continuing to be leaps and bounds ahead of other singing shows, and while the rating may be down, they still have a strong fan base that will never be broken. Idol will always have those fans, and should remain one, and continuing to produce great talent. Season 14’s talent is so much stronger than be past few years, and ending it now would lead us to miss even more great talent to come.
Mandy says
American Idol has put out incredible stars: Carrie Underwood, Phillip Phillips, Scotty McCreery, Kelly Clarkson… etc. As long as the right judges are on… They’ll always have a great show. This season has the best judges by far. Keith Urban, Harry Connick Jr., and Jennifer Lopez. Amazing.
Brenda Rafferty says
I hope American Idol is renewed! I look forward to it each week. Please keep the same judges. Keith is my absolute favorite. He rarely criticizes, but gives advice to help. Have watched all seasons…and will continue to do so!
