AMERICAN IDOL - "111 (Top 24 Solos)" - As the pool has been narrowed to the top 24 contestants, 12 of the top 24 finalists perform solos at Academy LA in Hollywood during this week in the competition, as the search for AmericaÕs next superstar continues on its new home on AmericaÕs network, The ABC Television Network, SUNDAY, APRIL 15 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EDT).

American Idol ratings in the 18-49 demo were dwarfed by the Academy of Country Music Awards over on CBS. The ABC show lost 2/10ths of a point versus last Sunday, while the ACMs stayed steady with last year’s numbers.

The Academy of Country Music Awards carried CBS to a ratings win Sunday with numbers that compare well to the 2017 ceremony. “American Idol” (1.3) was off two tenths of a point week to week opposite the ACM Awards.
