QuoteNBC is in talks with Fremantle Media to resurrect ?American Idol,? Variety has learned.

According to sources with knowledge of the discussions, NBC has been pitched a revival of the long-running singing competition by producer Fremantle and is now mulling options for how to integrate the show into its programming slate. One possibility being considered: cutting NBC?s existing singing competition ?The Voice? from two cycles a year to one.

Get rid of the voice for sure. They haven't producEd one super star ever and im tired of hearing Mel post about them tbh

Just scrap the concept of reality singing shows in general. They're so late in this day and age.

The Voice is cute, but they have nothing to show for all the talent they've had.

It's just promotion for the judges.

It's never needed to be on twice a year.

I think they should come up with like an acting type reality show.. Look for the next big actor. That would slay.

I am actually surprised they haven't done that yet. I wouldn't watch, but still...

How bout no.
we need to keep wholesome television on TV

everything else is trash and degrading, especially those VH1 shows.
which do nothing but degrade and perpetuate the stereotype of black people

And it doesn't say that they're cancelling "The Voice"
it says they're thinking about cutting it from 2 seasons a year to only one

and that I agree with. It doesn't need to air twice a year. It's overkill
