Season 22 Update:
The legendary music competition series "American Idol" returns for its seventh season on ABC, bringing back renowned judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry, and Lionel Richie, along with the seasoned host Ryan Seacrest. They are on a mission to unearth America's next singing sensation. Last season, "American Idol" held the top spot as the No. 1 program in the Sunday 8-10 p.m. time slot among Adults 18-49, maintaining its dominance in the demo for the fourth consecutive year.
ABC has given the enthusiastic thumbs up to "American Idol" as the beloved competition series secures its renewal for the seventh season on the network, coinciding with its remarkable 22nd overall season.
This exciting announcement arrives just before the Season 21 finale scheduled for May 21, where former judge Keith Urban will make a special return to the show as a mentor for the Top 3 finalists. Since ABC took over the reins in 2018 following its previous run on FOX, "American Idol" has consistently delivered strong ratings, captivating audiences and solidifying its place as a television sensation.
