Watching local news--Seacrest says that during the next auditions (starting in August) Idol will focus more on the talent and less on the celebrity judges.

Seems like they're getting the message.

Yea!!! There might be hope for the show yet.

I am mildly looking forward to the battle of the bands show whatever that will be called. That has potential to be cool, but after this AI season I'm not so sure.

They better get the message, because they have totally lost sight of what this show is really about, and what made it popular.

According to entertainment news, for yesterday's finale show FOX averaged a 17.2 rating/28 share for the night and about 29.5 million viewers -- down sharply from the 36.4 million who watched last year's "Idol" finale.

AI is still the #1 show on TV, but it lost a lot of ground this season.
