Looks like American Idol really is coming back, and they’re reportedly eyeing Sundays, as I suspected:

We’ll see what this means for OUAT.
[adrotate group="5"]According to Variety, OUAT is “staying alive”:
ABC
Dead: “Notorious,” “Conviction”
Mostly Dead: “Imaginary Mary,” “The Catch,” “Secrets and Lies”
Staying Alive: “Once Upon A Time,” “American Housewife,” “Black-ish,” “Speechless,” “The Goldbergs,” “Fresh Off the Boat,” “Designated Survivor,” “Quantico”
Too Close to Call: “Agents of SHIELD,” “Dr. Ken,” “The Real O’Neals,” “Last Man Standing,” “American Crime”
Hasn’t Premiered Yet: “Downward Dog”“Once Upon A Time” is also a sure thing. Insiders say offers have already been made to the writing staff, which will be tasked with
taking the show in a new direction with the loss of some original characters in Season 7.
Granted, this still doesn’t mean an official decision has been made, and some of these are eyebrow raising. Really, they’re considering renewing Quantico? Variety has gotten things wrong in past predictions, too:

Cool little BTS video of Colin rehearsing the choreography for his song:
Sing-a-long version of “Love Doesn’t Stand a Chance”:
I hope we get sing-a-longs for the other songs after the episode airs.
Pretty sure that the album is already out. I keep seeing people screencapping and listening to it on Twitter.
International countries got the soundtrack on iTunes early, because it was already May 5th where they live. I think Australia was the earliest country to release it.
Emerald City has been cancelled. Not surprised in the slightest:
http://tvline.com/2017/05/04/emerald-city-cancelled-season-2-nbc/When it was on Fox, yes. But Wed and Thurs don’t work for ABC because Wed is their comedy night (which is doing better than their dramas) and Thurs is Shondland (all of which has been renewed).
So that leaves Monday which has either the Bachelor/Bachelorette/ DWTS and takes up two hours.
Tuesday has the same issues with result nights from Monday.
Friday which is a big no no and has Shark Tank
Saturday which is an even bigger no no.
Or Sunday which is currently in need of major overhaul and revamp.
They could potentially reduce DWTS to Fall only, but then Idol would be competing directly against The Voice. That’s just suicide. Idol coming to ABC would scream Sundays, as far as I’m concerned. I see them doing Idol from 8-10, and a new drama at 10, as I doubt they’d air Idol from 9-11.
