The month of January is exciting for many reasons. It marks a new year. Winter weather usually brings a little (or a lot) of snow in January, oh and one of the biggest singing competitions ever premiers as well. That is right my television loving friends, American Idol is back for an eleventh season this year. Grab the popcorn, get the remote and turn on the adt security in connecticut, it is time to watch one of the most watched reality competitions on television. The show will have a two night premier January 18th and 19th on FOX, so get ready to see just how great and how awful some singers really are out there.
I know that there are a lot of reality singing and music shows out there right now, and I have to admit that I watch a couple of them, but American Idol is practically an original in the category. That means you have to show a little love for the show and tune in.
Last year there were even more changes with the judges and the new panel was made up of Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, and Steven Tyler. At first people were unsure if the show could survive such a drastic change, but it seems like the change was not as difficult for viewers as it was expected to be.
This year all three judges are back along with Ryan Seacrest to find the America Idol. Take a look back to last year when American Idol was starting to ramp up.
