keychange Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 (edited) This now leaves open an extra week of performances. My new format prediction is: 24 - 16 - 12 - 10 - 8 - 6 - 5 or 4 - 3 Edited March 12, 2021 by m1key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliott Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 (edited) Am I the only one who thinks the Monday shows might just serve as another performance episode rather than a 2-hour results show? ABC doesn't really have much to air given the circumstances. And ABC has already experimented with doing the whole live voting followed by an actual elimination on Monday night rather than Sunday with the most recent season of Dancing With the Stars. 4/04 - Top 24, Group A Solo 4/05 - Top 24, Group A Duets 4/11 - Top 24, Group B Solo 4/12 - Top 24, Group B Duets 4/18 - Top 16 Perform 4/19 - Top 16 Results (Direct Advancements + Wildcards Akin to S16/S17's Top 14 Round) 4/25 - No Episode 4/26 - Top 10 5/02 - Top 9 5/03 - Top 8 5/09 - Top 7 5/10 - Top 6 5/16 - Top 5 5/17 - Top 4 5/23 - Top 3 / Finale The only reason I could see it not being a thing is because once they get to multiple song weeks, it'd be hard on the contestants, but there's way to alleviate some of that as well. Just an idea. Edited March 12, 2021 by Elliott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keychange Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Im going to guess the format is 24-16-12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-3 This is assuming that after the Final 12 reveal episode, all Sunday and Monday episodes are performances. They have room for one double elimination but IDK where they would put it, for now Ill guess right before Finale. They also completely removed the episodes the week of the Oscars which is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie_On Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 It would be amazing to get a season with single eliminations again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will probably be similar to S16 and S17 F14 where there were victory performances/wildcard performances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think there's any way theyre gonna go back to announcing the results at the beginning of the episode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWTS just did it on Monday nights for their most recent season, and ABC has experience doing it for Idol on Sunday nights.

Gives viewers more of an incentive to watch. I feel for the contestants though, two performances a week and theyre really gonna have to be on their A game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the real issues may come towards the entire when both performance shows are multiple songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliott Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) Updated guess at what our schedule looks like now: SUN 4/04 - Top 24, Group A MON 4/05 - Top 24, Group B SUN 4/11 - Top 24 Results & Top 16 Perform MON 4/12 - Top 16 Results (I'm guessing it'd be similar to the Victory/Second Chance performances from S16 & S17) SUN 4/18 - Top 12 Perform MON 4/19 - Top 11 Perform (Not sure when they'd do the double elimination, but I'll put it here just since it happening before the week off makes sense to me.) SUN 5/02 - Top 9 Perform MON 5/03 - Top 8 Perform SUN 5/09 - Top 7 Perform MON 5/10 - Top 6 Perform SUN 5/16 - Top 5 Perform MON 5/17 - Top 4 Perform SUN 5/23 - Top 3 Finale Edited March 26, 2021 by Elliott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
