    *** American Idol: Season 6 ***

    http://www.zap2it.com/tv/news/zap-am...p-tv-headlines

    On Jan. 16 and Jan. 17, FOX will air "Idol" audition footage -- shrieking hacks with the occasional talented singer mixed in -- from 8:00-10:00 p.m. ET. Starting the following week, regularly scheduled hours of "Idol" will air at 8 p.m. on Tuesday and 9 p.m. on Wednesday.

    That means that the sixth season of "Idol" will kick off the day after "24" finishes its own two-night, four-hour opening.

    The audition shows, from Los Angeles, San Antonio, Birmingham, Memphis, Minneapolis, New York City and Seattle, will be spread over six episodes, showing on Jan. 16, 17, 23, 24, 30 and 31. Guest judges for that leg of the process included Olivia Newton John, Carol Bayer Sager and Jewel.

    The semifinal episodes will air on Feb. 6, 7, 13 and 14. In theory that means that the Top 32 will begin vying for America's affections starting on Feb. 20.



    The audition episodes are always the best. I'm glad they will all be aired in January and not the next month when it will go head to head with Lost.

      No. My wife watched this show religiously until it became painfully obvious how fixed it really was.

        Well, 6 years later, now the kids that were too young to audition can. Talent is being born everyday.

        Sadly, that means there is always a reason to have an American Idol so long as ratings are high.
        "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

          I miss Star Search.

          At least that show had REAL talented people and some of them had pretty big careers after being on that show. I know Arsenio Hall tried a retooled version of the show a few years ago but nothing beats Ed McMahon hosting it.

              It'll probably be pretty good since 2 of the 5 winners have been born in Birmingham (Taylor Hicks and Rueben Studdard).

                    I, honestly, couldn't tell you who Taylor Hicks was, whether Taylor is a guy or a girl, what season he won in..etc.

                    I know who Rueben is, though.

                    Granted, I've never actually watched more than 5 minutes at a time, and I've never seen any episodes past the auditions...so...forgive me that I don't know where the winners were born, heh.

                            Has Taylor Hicks done anything other than those annoying Ford commercials?

                              Not that I know of.

                              Him and Fantasia are having a contest to see who can do nothing the longest.
