Luke Bryan was an AWFUL casting choice. Katy and Lionel are good, but a better third judge could easily have upped ratings a bit.

Cause it’s garbage. They take out the best part (crazy auditions) and replace it with even more sob stories 

“I’m the next American Idol because when I was 2 months old I died in 9/11, and then my granny tied me to the back of the car and drove, and my teachers all set me on fire everyday, and oh, plus I have cancer and aids and I’m homeless. But listen to me play 3 chords on the guitar and sing this shitty country song!” 

“I’m the next American Idol because I live in a chicken coop with no roof or walls that leaks nuclear waste and my mom works 15 jobs to feed me and my 89 siblings two kernels of corn a month. My dad molested me with a rusty chunk of ship wrought when I was 5-minutes-old and my uncle shoots up black tar heroin off my back, and now heres The One That Got Away. 

And Paula Abdul ain’t got [BLEEP] on me!

The last time the show was good was 2011 when Scotty Won. Phillip Phillips season wasn’t bad either but everything after those have been complete messes. 

I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill.

This. People want to be entertained, but if every second candidate is just another sob story then they become desensitized and more importantly, less entertained. Bring back the crazy shockers, the extremely funny ones that make us cramp up from laughter, the ones that several different generations can appreciate because of how bad/memorable they were. Not "wig". Might sound cruel, but that's entertainment for ya.
