For the first time in years I would probably consider skipping American Idol. I'm just not "feeling it" this year without Simon.

Sadies, it will be interesting to see who "blinks" first and moves their time slot.

Simon mas never my favorite, but the thought of looking at Tyler's face for any period of time without trying to count the lines.....not sure I can do it, think it will be distracting.

it is interesting that the results show is against the Big Bang Theory which has the youngest demographic, while Idol's demographic is 50% over 50 and keeps getting older.

I'm a drop dead Idol fan! I will watch as long as this show is on. Simon will be missed! Paula was missed last yr. I never put too much into the judges participation anyway...........it's all about the kids & their talent that keeps me coming back.

Some of the top 40 have been spoiled(possibly)

A former America's Got Talent singer apparently makes top 40. Her name rhymes! Oh and she's awesome!

The show hasn't even started yet and I am already tired of them... "We are the new judges and we are one big happy family. Ryan takes so long to get ready. JLo is not a diva" --
I certainly hope they realize that this show is about the contestants not the judges.

At the end of the Bachelor article you will see this paragraph and below it the audio player you can click on.

"EW's TV INSIDERS PODCAST: This week, Dalton Ross, Adam Vary, and Mandi Bierly go inside the AMERICAN IDOL' ..."

ack! They are already making the eps longer even though we were promised to have time for a life this season.

"Who didn’t see that coming? The Futon Critic reports Fox is expanding the January 26th edition of American Idol to 2 hours and bumping Human Target. Human Target will air on Monday, January 31 at 8pm ahead of the season (and likely series) finale of Lie To Me at 9pm.

Human Target is still scheduled to air after American Idol on 2/2 and 2/9, but don’t be too surprised to see those bumped for more Idol expansion or something else."

They get too greedy with my TV time and I tend to hit the delete button instead of just FF.

The reviewer in our paper claims that Steven Tyler is less coherent than Paula ever was in his comments. Oy.

LOL.. and a friend of mine who DOES watch AI, asked me the other day.. "who the heck IS that guy?" She mostly likes country. I wonder how many other viewers will feel that way?

I swear they brought Nigel back just to make sure the show ends on time. the show over runs really bugged a lot of people.

That's exactly how I feel as well and not just about AI. Some shows just try to stretch it out too much. And the over-runs are ridiculous.

Can a reboot save 'American Idol'?

(CNN) -- Sure "American Idol" is returning, but is it coming back any better?

Not being a long-time watcher of Idol, I'll skip the audition rounds and start watching when they are down to 24. I tend to get too wrapped up in reality shows so have to limit my intake. Seriously. I learned my lesson after Big Brother.

<But I will be reading about the auditions online :-)>

Oh, I'll be watching - always do. I didn't even vote once last yr. I might just vote this yr if we can do it online like was mentioned above.

Nyheat, you have to watch! It's the coolest feeling when you totally fall for someone during auditions and they end up making it to top 12. But I have to admit it's more gut-wrenching when they are sent home after making it that far.

Weird, tonight's show is meant to be starting with a statement apologising for Steven Tyler's "outrageous behavior"!?!?! I wonder if he lusts over someone who's underage... I'm not sure he notices how young some of the contestants are. Or maybe it's a joke/publicity stunt???

Ryan exclusively confirmed on his radio show Wednesday that producers plan to issue an apology to viewers.
“There’s a black card that starts the show tonight,” Ryan explained of the episode featuring auditions in Austin, TX. “It starts with, ‘American Idol would like to apologize for last week’s outrageous behavior by Steven Tyler…’”
What the rest of the apology says, we’ll find out tonight, but Ryan insisted viewers watch the entire hour because, “it will all add up and make sense.”
When asked by co-host Ellen K. if Tyler would keep his job, Ryan exclaimed, “I hope so!”

I cannot even imagine what in the world they are issuing an apology for. He's the best thing to happen to Idol in years. Even though it is almost impossible to offend me, I haven't heard any scuttlebutt regarding anything offensive from last week's show.

I hope you are right Kitt and that it is just a publicity stunt.

Steven is great on the show. Hopefully it is just a publicity stunt. Steven and J Lo (and the rejuvenated Randy) are the best thing that ever could have happened to the show.

Ryan exclaims "I hope so" when asked if Steven will get to keep his job. Ha! He's the surprise new star of the show. I'm thinking this will be a tongue-in-cheek apology. If it's serious, there have been complaints coming from some silent sources.
