Five Reasons Why American Idol Season 13 Is Worth Watching

Much has been said about the declining ratings of American Idol. Despite that, it is still  the most successful reality-singing competition with more viewers than the Voice and X Factor. I still believe the show will do well this year and is worth watching.



Here are 5 reason why American Idol Season 13 will be great.

Most Talented Singers. No talent show has ever produced some of the most incredible artists. Just look at Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Fantasia, Jennifer Hudson, David Cook, David Archuleta. And the list goes on. Based on the 79 contestants who received golden tickets so far, I am confident that this year will have phenomenal voices.

New Judge, Harry Connick Jr. This multi talented singer is just hilarious. In previous seasons he made appearances as a mentor and even performed on stage. He is likeable and knows well what he is doing. In the first episode, he lectured his fellow judges and contestants about pentatonic scale. Pentatonic what? Oh, he will the one to watch.


Eccentric Contestants. The early two episodes have already showcased some of the funniest auditions. Watch the shirtless ( wearing jumpers ) comedian wannabee, beefed up guy with no singing talent and the cool James who joked "Why does the dog likes to go to the water? Because it doesn't want to be a hotdog."

Great Chemistry Among The Judges. We didn't like the tension between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj in Season. We had enough of the bickering. The new panel of judges, Keith Urban, Jennifer Lopez and Harry Connick Jr, have excellent combination of personalities. 

New Format. Notice the new golden tickets? They also introduced  the Chamber, a room where contestants have a few seconds to prepare before they go in and perform. Guitars are now allowed to be used when auditioning. Noticeable also is the refreshing way of presenting the clips. The editing is well done. I also like the way they engage viewers by asking them through twitter to guess if the contestant will go trough or not. I look forward to more of that. It's cool to involve the audience.
