The American Idol finale ratings stayed steady with last Sunday’s penultimate episode. The final show of the season notched a 1.0 in the ratings, but surged in overall viewers–7.3 million viewers compared to last Sunday’s 6.1 million viewers.
Singing competitions were forced to film at home episodes due to coronavirus concerns. Unfortunately ratings for both American Idol and The Voice remote shows have been flat. Some viewers are just not interested in watching what amounts to glorified music videos vs the the excitement and energy of live television.
