Katy Perry may be leaving "American Idol" but the show goes on. The music talent format has been renewed for its eighth season at ABC and 23rd season overall.

The renewal comes ahead of its Season 22 Grand Finale, which takes place on Sunday, May 19. "American Idol" has provided consistently strong ratings for ABC since the network picked it up in 2018 (after it ended its run at Fox in 2016).
