    • The seventh season of American Idol has only been done for a week, and the series is already looking ahead to what is up for its eighth season. Simon Cowell has already promised big changes for next season. They might even lower the age of the contestants. That makes it sound like Star Search. Anyone remember that show? David Cook and David Archuleta have been making the rounds in support of the American Idol tour. You can catch them on TRL tomorrow afternoon. Cook’s performances for last week’s finale have been topping the sales over at iTunes the past week, and he’s already starting to work on his album. It will be a rock record, and that is really no surprise. David Cook is a rocker.

      What do you think about American Idol? Do you like it how it is now or do you think some changes can be made? As a fan and view of the show, I think there is always room for improvement. My attention goes to the audition round which plays on our television screens for the first month of American Idol. Yes, I love a good bad audition scene as much as anyone, but four weeks of them always gets boring. Other series of this type of shortened their audition process on air. I really think it is time for American Idol.

      However, I’m not sure if lowering the age requirement for the show is a good idea. Yes, there are some amazing younger singers, but if you go too young, they might not be able to handle the pressure of a full season of performing and being judged. David Archuleta, at 17, is one of the youngest to be on the series, and you could tell he was overwhelmed. Imagine if he had auditioned and made it onto the show earlier?

      What do you think?
