So Who is Going to Watch the new season?
The new idol promo video featuring HP is out and it’s making me nostalgic. I personally will watch just to see how different it is (i.e. Ellen; no Paula; the post-Lambert generation) but I can’t imagine anyone ever topping (hee) Kradison (and MY BELOVED, HOW DARE I??)

















I watch every season of American Idol and Canadian Idol (although they didn’t have CI this past season – BOO!) but I’m sure I’ll find some faves among the new bunch, and of course seeing some of THIS SEASON’s idols come back to play on the stage!!
Season 8 is the best. S9 won’t top last season. Hell no.
Also, there is another promo with Kris, but it hasn’t surfaced..yet.
ADAM BROKE IDOL.
i’ve been watching Idol since season 6, and every season just gets better, but i agree, its going to be hard to top Kradison, and i cant really imagine it, but i’ll be watching it again this year of course, and i agree with Heather, i’ll probably find some faves as well and it’ll be good to see this seasons idols come back. :)
but, i’ll miss Paula, even though i love ellen. and i cant stand Kara.
Adam simply drained me. Rebecca, you were right-he broke the idol. I want to keep Adam in my heart and soul as THE AMERICAN IDOL. Such Yummy after taste.
I cannot take mediocrity (i.e. Idols “by the dozen”).
Post-Lambert generation… It’s gonna be tough for the new contestants. Adam set the bar way up high
Kris and Allison set the bar high too. :)
You know what would really break the AI mold…POLKA. Damn straight. I want a frigging polka artist to bring AI to it’s mfing knees!
“ADAM BROKE IDOL.”
I so agree! I really liked the commercial they did last yera with David Cook. I think it was much better. He started off on stage doing a concert and it ran backwards through the season. It was awesome1
Kradison just totally took Idol and made it their bitch.
I can’t wait for Idol, as usual, but I feel like we’re overdue for another Melinda Doolittle situation where the best person not only loses but everyone forgets about her. And oh my crap does that make me sad.
I feel a sense of sadness thinking about the upcoming season. What’s the word, melancholy? Nobody will ever, ever, ever, ever, be able to top Adam Lambert…after his glittery boots stomped all over that stage, he’s ruined it for everyone else.


I agree with Jada………Adam drained me with the crazy level of interest in AI this year.
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT JC!!!



I hope I will not watch and say over and over; “You’re no Adam Lambert.” I bet Simon will say it over and over though.
I’ve watched Idol for many years but have zero interest this year, maybe that will change but right now I don’t see how anyone beats kradison in terms of talent, personality and sheer cuteness
I’ll definitely watch Idol this season, because if I had turned it off for good after my favs didn’t win in previous seasons I would have missed Melinda Doolittle! (BTW: Melinda has not been forgotten, Dave! Check out her official web site – http://www.MelindaDoolittle.com – and Twitter – mdoolittle – AND YouTube – DoolittleTV!)
I’ve said for a while now that AI gives us diamonds along with the coal and every season proves me right. ;-)
