The season finale of FOX’s “The Four: Battle For Stardom” airs Thursday night.
“Season” is the pivotal word in that sentence.
FOX just confirmed that the music competition series has been renewed for a second season. The new season will premiere this summer.
The renewal is utterly unsurprising. While the show did not premiere to a massive audience, it has remained impressively stable throughout its first season.
Last week’s episode, in fact, set series highs in adults 18-49 and overall viewership.
Beyond the stable live+same-day ratings, “The Four” is also generating ample social media buzz.
“THE FOUR is truly a next-generation show,” said Wade. “It has pushed past the boundaries of traditional music competition series by focusing on recording artists in an epic battle to become a superstar. And for the winner, guided by music giants Sean “Diddy” Combs, DJ Khaled, Meghan Trainor and Republic Records, this is just the beginning. We’d like to thank our panel, our ringleader, Fergie, the contestants and our incredible production team for delivering concert-quality shows every week. And we look forward to pushing the boundaries even further in Season Two.”
Remaining contestants Candice Boyd, Vincint Cannady, Evvie McKinney and Zhavia will vie for the inaugural crown in Thursday’s finale.
