Just when you thought American Idol had floated back out to sea, ABC may be throwing a lifeline.
Fremantle will apparently go back to Core to greenlight ABC negotiations, and follow up with NBC and FOX.
Obviously, at least one of the major networks is determined to get Idol back on the air, but is it still too soon?
According to TMZ, ABC put in a bid with Idol overseers FremantleMedia last week, in hopes of getting the singing competition back on the air by March 2018.
