“American Idol” – Changing Days and Adding More Country

More changes are coming to “American Idol.”  It will air a day later in the week. Instead of Tuesdays and Wednesdays, it will air Wednesdays and Thursdays.


And, the new season of “Idol” will have more twang. Producer Nigel Lythgoe tells TV Guide.com they’re seeing a wider-range of talent than in previous seasons, 
including many country, indie and jazz singers. The new season of “American Idol” starts January 19.
