It's starting on January 15th in the US.

This article says it will air on 5* in the UK but I can't find a start date anywhere online:

I'm not a fan of the show - just wanted to help.

Last series, the delay was just a day or two. I don't recall having to wait as long as Saturday.

It's definitely airing on 5* according to this

http://www.channel5.com/shows/americ...anel-announced

Maybe they'll play catch up on the auditions and miss the first week?

Yes, I think you must be right TheWireRules. Certainly by the live shows I'd have expected Ch5 to have caught up.

Judging by the newer comments on that link it looks like it won't be in until February at the earliest

Oh well, just have to watch the videos from mjsbigblog etc I suppose.

You can find the first episode at http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x19qob0_auditions-no-1-boston-austin-american-idol-2014_music. Just seen it and there is some good stuff. judges seem to have a good chemistry much better than in recent years

I'm liking the judges so far as a group. I also love the fact that they're showing a larger number of auditions than before. The new production team seem to be taking things seriously after last year,

Think this is the best set of judges for some years. Harry is a great judge and love the interaction between him and Keith.

I agree, the only thing that slightly annoys is the overuse of split screens, too much going on at times

I know what you mean, it can be a bit difficult to keep track of the constant flow of auditions, especially with the split screens. I like the modern feel it gives the show though.

Now confirmed on the 5* schedule, will be interesting to see if they make any effort to catch up or always run 10 days behind

Recorded it yesterday, just caught up with it this morning.

I think Harry Connick Jnr is a great addition to the panel, he is quite the wit.

Always love Keith Urban, J-Lo is meh to me.

Some good singers on the first auditions, couple of them trying to be Phillip Phillips I think.

But on the whole, sooooo much better than X-Factor
