The much-hyped X-Factor: the American edition is premiering on September 21. Touted as a competition for Cowell's previous project, American Idol, X-Factor managed to recruit Paula Abdul as well, effectively marketing this as a Cowell-Abdul reunion.

For good measure, FOX offered an early 8-minute preview for the American premiere during Sunday's NFL game. Watch the extended promo below! Will you be watching X-Factor or are you a diehard American Idol fan? Tell us in the comments!
