CandiceFan12 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) What would you guys think of this being the Top 2? I'm saying it would bring a lot of controversy. Of course, the producers would love that. It would bring more buzz than Iam/Megan from last season. Edited April 12 by CandiceFan12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarmenSandiego Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I doubt it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1key Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) That "buzz" would primarily be negative buzz about there being yet another male/country Top 2 though? Not sure what benefits that would have for the show. There's no way producers want an all male Top 2 when a woman hasn't won in what will soon be 4 years. It also isn't really realistic since people will start to compare Triston/Will when the numbers dwindle, and naturally, viewers will prefer one of them more.

ptebwwong Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I don't think the producers want them for the Top 2. I think they want Abi as one of the Top 2. However, I think it's possible the audience might make this the Top 2. It depends how Triston does at the live shows because if he doesn't do well I could see him be eliminated earlier. I definitely think Will will be in the Top 3 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarWalker1 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 As much as I could very well see it happen, I doubt production would want that to happen. They know how to run the show, they know what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Persy Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I doubt they want this to happen since the most pimped so far are Abi, McKenna, Julia, Emmy, KB, Odell, and Will. I'm gonna guess producers will bus one of these guys eventually to get a top 5 females. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie_On Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I think they want Emmy in the finale more than anybody right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamAudra Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 No, I doubt that’s what the producers want, but they also probably don’t care as much as some think they do, as long as they get decent ratings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mytake1 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I doubt the producer's really care. It's something that IDF always trips about. They are not going to alienate their base. They know the actual votes, including voting patterns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenboy1 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 It’s not the one they want and it’s also highly unlikely that that’s what they are going to get…although being country helps, I think people are overrating how much it actually matters …neither one of the top 2 last year was country…2/3 token country males dropped out in the Top 9…only one made it to the finale and they came 3rd…it helps, but it’s not as overwhelming as people think… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season. Colin Stough and Haven Madison were the first 2 to get record deals. The odds are stacked against the winner. Since Season 12, only Chayce Beckham has any kind of success. It's more interesting to see who can have a career after show. And odds are it's going to be people that aren't popular on IDF. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of those who ARE popular on IDF already signed a recording contract with Groundwork. None of us know the ramifications of that. I’d love to see what is in that contract.

Viewers these days are invested in the TV show. Not so much what happens after. Lauren Spencer Smith will be a guest performer this week. She was voted off Top 24, Season 18. She focused on her song writing, reinvented herself on Tik-Tok. Did all the grunt work as an indie artist. She and her song gained traction, and it eventually led to a bidding war in the industry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree with that. That’s why it helps to be ready to hit the ground running as soon as they leave the show. Which contestants does that apply to? Probably Will and maybe a few others to a lesser extent. They also need to have the drive to actually go out and do it, and the understanding that they need more than whatever fanbase they gained from the show.

If the season had normal shows like usual, I think the season & the finalists would have been different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m1key Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Lauren's success has little correlation to Idol imo. She was one of the least televised contestants in the Top 20 if I remember correctly. However, it did allow her to meet Natalie Jane and Geena Fontanella (both who made Showcase) and their viral singing TikTok's helped build Lauren's platform.
