Fox Reality Channel has set the premiere date for an American Idol companion show.
Plans for the show were first reported on DS back in December. American Idol Extra will be a 19 Entertainment-Fremantle co-production and will take a format similar to that of the UK spin-off shows.
The first show will air on Thursday, March 16 and continue to air weekly after the public vote-off show until the end of the season.
