American Idol is a reality television competition to find new solo singing talent. Part of the Idol franchise, it was created by Simon Fuller as a spin-off from the British show Pop Idol, of which two series were broadcast between 2001 and 2003. Debuting on June 11, 2002, as American Idol: The Search for a Superstar on the Fox network, the show has since become one of the most popular in the history of American television. It is currently the #1 program in the Nielsen ratings and is the only program to have been #1 for six consecutive seasons, surpassing All in the Family and The Cosby Show, which were both #1 for five consecutive seasons. 60 Minutes was also the #1 program for five seasons, but not in consecutive years. |
