It was the series' final season to air on Fox. Despite the announcement that the series would be ending, ABC announced in May 2017 that they would revive American Idol.[3]
Changes from previous seasons
For the first time, performances by the top 24 were judged solely by the show's judges and producers, who determined which contestants were eliminated. From each group of twelve, seven were advanced and five were eliminated, resulting in a top 14 for the third week of the semifinals.
The voting limit for this season was set at ten votes per contestant per voting method, half of what it had been the previous season.[4]
The top 24 semifinalists were split into two groups of twelve, and were filmed at The Vibiana in Los Angeles, California. Each round consisted of back-to-back performances: each contestant sang one solo in the episode that aired on Wednesday, and one duet with an American Idol alumnus in the episode that aired on Thursday.[14][15]

Trent Harmon (born October 8, 1990) was from Amory, Mississippi. He auditioned in Little Rock, singing "Unaware" by Allen Stone. When Harmon suffered mononucleosis during Hollywood Week, he continued by singing Sam Smith's "Lay Me Down" as his first solo.[18] In the group round, he was not able to perform with the other contestants due to his illness, and the producers allowed him to perform a solo to advance.[19] He earned a spot in the top 24 during Showcase Week after performing Elton John's "Tiny Dancer."[20]
MacKenzie Bourg (born September 11, 1992) was from Lafayette, Louisiana. He auditioned at Atlanta by performing a medley of songs by the judges. He sang his original song, "Roses," as his final solo to advance to the Showcase round.[28] He advanced to the top 24 after he performed "Can't Help Falling in Love".[20]
There were seven weeks of finals with ten contestants competing. For the first three weeks, the judges had the ability to save one contestant amongst the bottom three or two, that resulted from America's votes based upon the previous week's performances.[35] As of the Top 5, the results reverted back entirely to America's vote.

I still prefer the grittier Sonika we saw on 'Bring Me to Life' — and honestly, returning to that vibe is the only chance she's got to win this season — but I couldn't really be too mad that she's the one the judges chose to save.
