American Idol Semifinal Ratings Stay Steady

AMERICAN IDOL: Jordin Sparks and contestant Trent Harmon in the ““Showcase #4: Judges Vote” episode of AMERICAN IDOL airing Thursday, Feb. 18 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. © 2016 FOX Broadcasting Co. Cr: Ray Mickshaw / FOX.

American Idol ratings are down 1/10th compared to last week’s numbers in the 18-49 demo, and stay even compared to Wednesday Still hanging in above a 2.0! Expect that to change once the once a week finals competition begins. The good news for FOX, is the abbreviated schedule eliminates a long painful slide. As the show draws near to the finale, and the promotion heats up, the ratings should eclipse last year’s numbers. And then it’s goodbye to Idol. At least until that reboot!

Idol came in 4th for the night behind The Big Bang Theory, Grey’s Anatomy and Life in Pieces.
