Fox has cancelled American Idol. The network has picked up a 15th season of the long-running reality series, but confirmed that it will also be the last.
American Idol Season 15 will end in 2016 in what the network describes as “a season-long celebratory event.”
American Idol XV will feature host Ryan Seacrest and judges Jennifer Lopez, Keith Urban and Harry Connick, Jr., as they search for the final Idol superstar and pay tribute to the past 14 seasons of amazingly talented contestants and the millions of fans who tweeted, texted and championed their Idols.”
RIP.

Finally a program that does not deserve to be on the air. It is so Incredibly fixed it isn’t even funny. The judges are absolutely boring and could not compete with The Voice judges. They have even copied some of the Voice formats. I have never seen a reality program that is so completely FIXED!!! I cant believe it is even being given another season. It cant even make it into the top 25 best program ratings. GOODBYE American Idol!!!! After Carrie Underwood nobody has become anything in the music business. Where is last seasons winner? Gone and forgotten!!!!
Yo says
Not fixed at all. It’s based off of votes, you idiot.
Yo says
You guys are retarded. The show was renewed for another year. That’s not cancelled.
