American Idol Reboot Moves Closer To Reality
Less than a year after Idol ended its 15-season run on Fox, the singing reality series is eyeing a comeback and sources indicate a new season may be headed to NBC next season; that would bring the three biggest talent competition series of the past decade — Idol, The Voice and America’s Got Talent — under one roof.
Asked if her multiple roles on the dance competition series would preclude her participating in an Idol reboot – Lopez having previously judged that long-running hit Fox series – she answered, well-prep-edly, “I haven’t heard anything about that. So I know nothing about that.”

If Lopez, Urban and Connick are hired as judges, I won’t be watching. Additionally, if NBC makes American Idol more about the judges, whoever they will be, and less about the contestants, like they have with their other talent shows, I won’t be watching. American Idol was a good show until Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson left and the focus turned toward the judges and away from the singers.
