The amazing Abi Carter won American Idol season 22, but I’m worried that her win could mark the end of an era for the ABC version of the reality singing competition series if Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan are also replaced after Katy Perry’s exit. Lionel, Katy, and Luke were the original judges when Disney-owned ABC revived American Idol in 2018 after FOX canceled the beloved show in 2016. They judged together for seven seasons, and discovered some of the most successful artists in the ABC era of the show, including Gabby Barrett, Benson Boone, Chayce Beckham, and HunterGirl.
