According to Ryan Seacrest, the host of TVs powerhouse ‘American Idol’, the infamous results show will now be a thing of the past.
“We are going to do the performance show and the results in the same show,” said Seacrest, the show’s longtime host. “So there won’t be a ‘wait ‘til tomorrow night.’ There won’t be a ‘Coming up, coming up, coming up.’ We are going to put it all into one format in one night. So that will be exciting.”
The show has been gradually dropping in the ratings and the new format is similar to ‘Dancing With The Stars’ and will take effect once they show gets into the final stretch.
“[It will be] one night when we get to the final stage, the top ten, there will be one night of performances and results all in one night,” he said.
‘American Idol’ returns to FOX on Jan. 7th.
