Comments on: Could Nigel Lythgoe be returning to ‘Idol’? http://blogs.ajc.com/american-idol-blog/2010/07/27/could-nigel-lythgoe-be-returning-to-idol/ Rodney Ho's blog about all things American Idol: the show, the judges, the alumni, the controversy Thu, 29 Sep 2011 01:16:00 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: William http://blogs.ajc.com/american-idol-blog/2010/07/27/could-nigel-lythgoe-be-returning-to-idol/comment-page-2/#comment-67782 William Thu, 29 Jul 2010 15:06:56 +0000 http://blogs.ajc.com/american-idol-blog/?p=6030#comment-67782 Here is an out of mind idea: How about the bottom 3 become the new judges for a season. Using that formula and judge base from the last 9 seasons. We get new judges every season. If the bottom three gets recording contracts or just doesn't want to do it, then go further up the line of the top ten. Salaries would be cheaper than big name judges and they could save a lot of money and produce a better show with better guest singers, etc. Here is an out of mind idea: How about the bottom 3 become the new judges for a season.

She's a comedian (pretty good, not great) but not a musician. Replace the entire group and start over.

Hello! Adam Lambert... the year he was on is when I stopped watching. His appearance took away the "family" show for me. Besides, it had gotten boring with very few country music singers put through to the finals. In my opinion - nobody can replace Simon. Idol, anti-gay? Hello!
