American Idol--will next season be its last season?

[Frisco]

Especially considering Simon Cowell is leaving?

One can hope. Honestly, I guess it doesn't matter considering it's easy to avoid it but I can't stand that show.

This show jumped the shark when Paula was having all her problems the year before.

I tried to turn this thread into a poll, but I missed the check box. No second chances on Macrumors. I say next season is the last. I didn't watch last night's finale and just found out that it was the finale today.

Just report your OP and ask the mods to change it to a poll.

She’s one of the reasons the show is going to end.

Yeah it's just not her niche. And I think the four person panel was a big mistake. Can anyone even name the fourth judge--I know she is female?

I think they should tie it off right now. They had all the idols on stage like it was good-bye. But I don't think they will. Its too much of rating powerhouse.

Yeah, I don’t know her name either. She’s nice enough, but she’s no Paula. They needed to replace (or not replace) Paula with someone people know. They instead picked a singing professional, but no one knew her…at least I’d never heard of her.

They had them there for Simon. I was wondering if they were going to honor him the way they did. He’s the only judge that was honest on Idol.

Simon is most definitely going to be missed. I would venture out and state that the show's survival will depend on who is selected as his replacement.
