I’ve got an EXCLUSIVE look at the tentative American Idol schedule for the rest of the season!
You can say buh bye to the 1 hour performance show.
Idol performance shows will run 2 hours beginning next week until Wednesday April 6, when it cuts back to 90 minutes. A new FOX sitcom “Breaking In” will debut in the 9:30 time slot.
Then, it’s 90 minute performance shows until the finale. And here’s where it gets a little screwy.
The final performance show will air on TUESDAY MAY 24th at 8 pm and will run an hour (No Glee that night). The 2 hour and 7 minute Finale will air WEDNESDAY MAY 25.
Why? Because the last day of May advertiser sweeps is May 25. FOX can’t run any of it’s important programing past that date.
All shows, both performance and results will begin at 8 pm. Results shows will run an hour every week.
Check out the schedule after the jump. Like I said, this is tentative, and is subject to change.
