Simon Cowell, the acerbic Brit who has helped give "American Idol" some of its sharpest — and nastiest — moments, will leave the popular singing show after this season.


The cantankerous judge said that "The X Factor," a show he created and is a hit in Britain, will join Fox's schedule next year. Cowell will be on "The X Factor."


Cowell's decision is the biggest threat yet to what has been the country's most popular TV program and a true cultural force. This season, original host Paula Abdul has been replaced by Ellen DeGeneres.

LMAO, we posted at the same time... maybe someone can delete mine?
 
Maybe Piers will take the job. I like him. :(

Or one of the guys from Dragons Den. lol
 
Piers seems the only one fit to take Simon's place. I feel they will lose much without Simon. I think he is always on target as a judge. He will be missed as Paula will be.

The show just won't be the same without him:snooty:- he is what really makes the show! First Paula, now him...

I hate to say it, but with the X Factor coming to Fox next season, and taking Simon, I don't see American Idol lasting much longer.

Sadly, I think you're right, and it's too bad, I was hoping the show would last another 8 years so my daughter might get a shot...
