Been like me and confused about what's happening with the American Idol 9 semi-final and finale live shows?

Fret no more - help is at hand! This is a confirmed schedule of the broadcasts on M-Net for the rest of the season, with explanations where needed.

As you'll see, the overall structure is:

The semi-finale and finale Performance and Results shows are on Live in the early hours of Wednesday and Thursday mornings.
There's a delayed broadcast of both on Thursday nights.
And a repeat of both on Sunday's.

The schedule:

Wednesday, 19 May 2010

Time: 02h00
Show: Top 3 Finalists perform - a LIVE broadcast

This was on in the early hours of this morning.

Thursday, 20 May 2010

Time: 02h00
Show: Top 3 Results Show - a LIVE broadcast.

This could start between 02h00 and 03h00 because it's live and dependent on the US timing so if you're recording, it's best to start as early as 02h00.

Time: 19h30
Show: The Top 3 Finalists perform - a delayed broadcast.

Time: 20h30
Show: The Top 3 Results show - a delayed broadcast.

These evening broadcasts replace 90210 and Desperate Houswives, which return once AI ends.

Sunday, 23 May 2010

Time: 17h00
Show: Top 3 Finalists perform - a repeat broadcast.

Time: 18h00
Show: Top 3 Results Show - a repeat broadcast.

Wednesday, 26 May 2010

Time: 02h00
Show: Top 2 Finalists perform - a LIVE broadcast

Thursday, 27 May 2010

Time: 02h00 - 04h00
Show: The Finale - a LIVE broadcast

Time: 19h30
Show: Top 2 Finalists perform - a delayed broadcast

Time: 19h30 - 22h30
Show: The Finale - a delayed broadcast

This replaces 90210, Desperate Housewives and Fringe for the evening. All three return on 3 June.

Sunday, 30 May 2010

Time: 16h00 (this may start a bit late because of a rugby game just before)
Show: Top 2 Finalists Showdown - a repeat broadcast

Time: 17h00 - 19h00
Show: The Finale - a repeat broadcast.

On M-Net Series the schedule runs as usual, in the regular weekly American Idol slot.

I'm also glad he's gone!

This year's contestants are really not wow!!! Still overshadowed by Adam Lambert, a year later.

I think Casey saw it coming last night. And it was so obvious that he was on his way...

I hope Lee wins although I love them equally with Crystal (who hasnt up-ed her game recently)

@ SistaBB....I agree, Crystal lost it somewhere. I also hope that Lee gets it.
