"American Idol" Renewed for Season 14
May 7, 2014

Fox may have given "The X Factor" the boot, but it's not closing up shop on "American Idol" anytime soon. The network has officially renewed the long-running singing competition for its 14th season.

The announcement came Wednesday when "American Idol" revealed that auditions for the new cycle will kick off on June 18 in Minneapolis, Minn.

It remains to be seen which judges will return for the new season. After a conflict-heavy Season 12, this year's trio has gotten favorable reviews. However, Jennifer Lopez is set to star in an NBC drama beginning production in 2015 and it is unclear if she could juggle both commitments.

Longtime host Ryan Seacrest is in negotiations to return to Idol, according to Deadline.com.

I'm still concerned about the season two finale.

The top 3 were:

Kimberley Locke
Clay Aiken
Ruben Studdard

What went wrong?

1.) Kimberley was eliminated out of the top 2 and ends up in third place.

2.) Clay and Ruben were the top 2.

3.) They pick Ruben as a winner and Clay as a runner-up.

Clay should have been a winner and Ruben should have been a runner-up.

That was the worse season finale in this show's history.

But IMO, here's the correction of my own way:

1.) Ruben should have been eliminated into third place instead.

2.) Kimberley and Clay are supposed to be the top 2.

3.) Kimberley should have been ended up as a runner-up and Clay should have been ended up as a winner.

Here are the questions:

1.) Were the votes miscounted and messed up?

2.) Were the judges bad?
