I haven't watched AI since season 2. If Harry's a judge, I'm sure that will change.

I'm pretty sure Harry is the one to get for this show. They'd be crazy not to hire him. He's got it all!

Is Harry current enough? He was very caring when he was mentoring, and is obviously very talented, but I don't know how current he is with styles that aren't as croony(!) as his own. I think he might not be into the same type of music most of the public is.

What I like about Harry is his high level of musicianship, and I bet he knows American music history like nobody's business. He also knows "pitchy" is not a word lol. Kara and Randy can take care of the current trends part. They seem pretty up on that.

I think Harry would be a great replacement for Kara, he an play the nice critic. he can offer real criticism but with empathy. Kind of an intelligent, sober Paula. Kara offers nothing to the show, absolutely nothing. Since Piers is going to be replacing LKL, then he is out. Another great judge if he would do it would be Quentin Tarantino. He is an IDOL fan and he is also a pretty good judge too.

While I dislike Quentin Tarantino movies, he was both a great judge and mentor (and a true fan of the show). I read a few years ago that he shuts the set down so he can watch Idol. But I'm all about Harry.... Chris Isaac is just so random - I don't get that.

Without Simon, I don't give a flying fig at present.. of course my mind could change later, but I think once more they will not really be able to replace.

Unfortunately Mame, Brett is completely out of the running. It is between Harry and Chris.

Why is Brett out of the running? I thought it was almost a done deal.

Wouldn't Bret Michaels and Harry Connick Jr. be awesome as judges together? I would be glued to my set. NO, wait, those two and Garth Brooks. YESSSS.

They could get rid of Randy or Kara any time now. Anytime.

While I like Ellen, she doesn't add anything to the show nor is she a music mogul/expert/artist/producer, etc. She's a listener and she had a talkshow. I don't get it. I say a whole new panel of judges.

Kara has grown on me. Randy they could get rid of and I probably wouldn't miss him (even though I'm sure he's a nice guy). I have been contemplating this for a week and I still don't get Chris Isaac???? That is just so random!!!!

Tex, the newspaper article I read didn't say why he was out, just that he was out.

Maybe his ongoing health problems had them nervous? He could always be a guest judge or mentor.
