2009/01/14 – 6:45 pm

Alright, so I just got done watching the season premier of “American Idol” season 8 episode 1 online since I missed it. They were doing the Phoenix,AZ auditions,and I must say that in the midst of all those crappy singers there was some good ,and unique talent there that I would look forward to seeing more of if I didn’t know that the American Idol format is just going to screw them up later on with all the genre switch ups. For the judges of course we still have Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul,and of course the very blunt yet very real Simon Cowell. But there’s a new judge named Kara DioGuardi.

‘American Idol’ Season 8 Makes a Few Changes

2008/12/19 – 4:01 am

It’s almost close to that time of year again. American Idol is gearing up for its 8th season,but it’s coming with a few changes. They are going to be showing less of the early round audition footage and more of the Hollywood week footage . Basically it means when the season starts on January 13 they will air a two hour show and another two hour show on the 14th. Then they will confine it down to just an hour show the following week and cap the audition shows off on the 29th of January.

Then the Hollywood round starts on February 3, and will get two weeks worth of shows up from just one week in past seasons. It will conclude with 36 semifinalists up from 24 in past seasons.
