Confirmed that she is NOT coming back.

Idol's best days are definitely over. This is a huge loss.

Wow. Are they just going to stick with Simon, Randy and Kara or add another 4th judge? I really think the only judge you can't replace is Simon. Love or hate him, the show would definitely suffer without him.

The back and forth antics of Paula and Simon is one of the best parts of the show. Kara is boring and annoying. I can see ratings continuing to slip even more drastically now.

I'm glad she's leaving. Her antics and babbling are so annoying. I tune in for the contestants, not her.

good riddance

Ugh. I hope next season tanks. Kara is so NOT on Paula's level.

catlover79 · 08-05-2009, 01:26 PM

I always thought Paula would be better suited for something like So You Think You Can Dance. After all, Paula DID get her start as a cheerleader/dancer/choreographer.

I got an e-mil last Night telling me that Paula Abdul was leaveing America Idol. Good Luck Paula onto you Paula.

Not even close.

I wonder what will happen Next Season Now that Paula will not be apart of American Idol.

browneyes106 · 08-05-2009, 04:34 PM

I'm kind of sad that Paula won't be back next season. But I watch for the contestants and I think maybe Kara will improve as a judge next season.

No it isn't. I got tired of Simon and Paula fondling each other while ignoring the contestants. When he's not distracted by her Simon has insightful comments but unfortunately Paula brought him down to her level a few times.

I agree that a dance show would seem like a better gig for her. She'd be more believable and could really judge the contestants by their talents instead of just her instincts. I say that just in speculation. In all honesty, I have no desire to (nor have I ever) watch(ed) either show!
