With the ratings slump at 'American Idol' and Simon's departure just days away, TV insiders are expecting big changes in the format of next season's show -- and no, that doesn't mean Kara DioGuardi will host in a bikini."Everything is on the table," an 'Idol' insider has stated. "Nothing and no one is safe from change. There have been discussions about moving the show to New York, documenting the contestants living and fighting together in one big house and also eliminating the judges altogether. The only one who is safe is Ryan Seacrest."
Although no final decision has been made for any of the changes, those who were expecting that only Simon would be replaced will be shocked about the changes being discussed.
One suggestion was that before the producers go throwing out the baby with the bathwater, they focus on finding more interesting contestants and change some of the archaic rules on the show? After all, isn't the music what we really care about?
We'll have to stay tuned to see what is going to happen with the 10th installment of American Idol, which will premiere in January 2011.
