The new season of ABC’s “American Idol” is coming up, and the network is promoting it with a quirky clip about the judges’ visit last summer to Idaho. You can see the clip below.

ABC explained it this way: “Last summer, the ‘American Idol’ bus visited 24 cities across the nation in search of a superstar. As previously announced, viewers at home will be able to follow the inspiring journey starting Sunday, March 3 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EST), on the ABC Television Network, when the first crop of Idol hopefuls audition for their shot at a ticket to Hollywood. The cross-country audition tour will move forward with an all-new episode on Wednesday, March 6 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EST), rounding out a talent-filled premiere week. New episodes will continue on Sunday, starting March 10 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EDT), and adds Mondays for five consecutive weeks, starting March 18 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EDT).”
