Simon Fuller says Idol “will be coming back for sure," adding that he’s already planning “the next generation." “There will no doubt be another format or refinement or elevation of the format,” he tells The Hollywood Reporter. "Now I can actually revamp it and come up with a new version. And we can look back on 15 seasons and think of some legitimate ways to allow people to enjoy them again, maybe adding another dimension to it.”

Why? It's already dead in the ground. There isn't any use to bring it back

^I agree. "The Voice" also needs to go away.

^I know. And yes it does. What do people see in these reality competition shows? I used to like "American Idol" a longgggg time ago but not now. I've never watched "The Voice"

I was thinking about "National Idol".

I think it'll be interesting to see what he comes up with. I'd at least watch the first episode of a new version to see what it's like. But I think the public has moved on from these kind of competitions. But I think they can be interesting.

Ed.

^I don't, but I know many people that love "The Voice".

I don't think the public is actually tired of music reality shows. I think the format of "AI" just grew old.

A new format may work but I probably won't watch.
