The ongoing health crisis has halted some plans by sporting agencies, talk shows, reality TV shows, and even some talent competitions.

Further productions have been either postponed or have taken place in a more suitable environment that allows for social distancing and self-isolation, which in turn is required to curb the spread of the COVID-19.

One fan begged that a few more talents be added to make the list top 21 instead of its first top 20. Another fan angrily blurted out some disinterest in the show. @TennisLover813 wrote:

"Sorry, IDOL-- NO SHOW for me, I'm done with this show...Have fun with your low ratings."

Irrespective of some of the harsh comments from some fans, it appears the show will have a few interested viewers who are supporters of the best picks by the team of talented judges which includes Lionel Richie, Katy Perry, and Luke Bryan.

Some outstanding performances that were mind-blowing and managed to scale through to the final moment are Arthur Gunn, DeWayne Crocker Jr., Faith Becnel, Aliana Jester, Nick Merico, Cyniah Elise among others.

While contestants will deliver a rendition of their selected music from their homes, the panelists will also be watching from their areas of comfort that affords them the ability to self-isolate.
