    Fox recently confirmed that the iconic singing competition will come to an end after 15 seasons following next year's final season. This is sad because I still enjoy watching the show and haven't missed an episode in all 14 seasons so far :( Do any of you still watch this show? Are you saddened or surprised by this? Can't say I am so much surprised as I am sad...
     
    This is just a tragedy, given it's one of the most watched singing talent shows in the world. But it's still quite a shock to hear about it, but I guess it couldn't compete against the booming popularity of competing shows like The Voice and The X Factor.
     
    i use to only watch american idol during the auditions. it doesn't surprise me that their ending the show, the winners don't seem to get famous.
     
    ugh about time. Let's put the injured horse down already.

    I was really, really only watching at this point for her. I didn't even FINISH the finale performances, haha, and I've been rooting for her literally since the moment she walked into the audition room so I was breaking down. ]: in any case, she'll have freedom to choose who signs her and her terms, and her first record will be out in no time so I'm not worried about her soon-to-be blossoming career
     
    Nope, I myself never cared for it and don't think even this would make me. We have a lot of other shows like it out there now, and i'm not a reality TV person anyway.
     
    It should have been put down after Randy Jackson left, but even then it was still limping along in denial of its own fate.

    At least we'll always have the auditions.
     
    Idol is so whack, the celebrity judges are the only reason it's still around after so long, but they don't have the charisma to carry it. Everyone I know just watches the voice now... But J-Lo's light up dress was batshit awesome, I ain't gonna lie. That was pretty cool.
     
    I haven't watched the last few seasons, the last season I watched before 14 was 11. But it was apparent to me at least that the show was done. When you have contestants like Daniel Seavey, Qaasim and Jax make it as far as they did, somethings wrong. I will say that I liked them, but they definitely should not have made it as far as they did. Seavey should have been out one of the first weeks of hollywood or not gone on at all after all the hollywood week stuff. Jax should have went home in place of Rayvon last week, but Nick still won so I'm okay with this season.

    But yeah it's time they put it down.
     
    Eh I used to enjoy the show when Paula, Randy, and Simon were on it, but after they left the show kinda died with them. They were such a good trio and they really complemented each others personalities especially how Paula's niceness went up against Simon's... hate for every living soul.
     
    I haven't watched American Idol since Paula, Randy and Simon were on. I watched the finale only to see if Nick won, seeing as he comes from a city close to mine. But I pretty much don't watch anymore, it's not really fun to me without the trio.
     
    Honestly this was looonnnnggggg overdue. Imo it started tanking a while ago. I'll remember the glory years
     
    It's honestly about time. Once they started rotating out judges it lost a lot of it's fun and the chemistry between the judges was never the same. It also got annoying how they always featured a sob story during the auditions. I stopped watching it like the season after the judges first switched, and I have a feeling I didn't really miss much :p
     
    I think the formatting of this season killed this show in all honesty. The judges are fine, the contestants were pretty average(except Jax she should have won and is amazing xoxo), but the way they handled the results was atrocious. They eliminated the results show and had a save nearly every week ?_? It really became annoying. After watching the very subpar finale I guess I am content with this thing ending. Guess I'll watch The Voice!
