Sorry Simon!
American Idol is getting better ratings than last week AND last year!
Without the help of Simon Cowell, Wednesday night’s Idol episode snagged nearly 25 million viewers — up 2% over last year’s equivalent-night Wednesday-night!
With new judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez joining Randy Jackson this season, Idol is gaining back it’s ratings magic.
Wednesday’s episode was up 1 million viewers from last week’s Wednesday episode — and won the night in all key demos.
To increase viewership even further, we propose Steven wear a different scarf for every million than tune in. Or is he doing that already?
