Idol (Cyrillic: Идол) was a reality TV contest produced in Belgrade, Serbia and aired from 2003 until 2005.

Based on the popular British show Pop Idol, it was its local version for young singing hopefuls in the then still existing state union of Serbia and Montenegro. For the second season, Macedonia was added to the mix as well.

Being referred to unofficially as Srpski Idol (Serbian Idol) or Idol SCG in season one, it was considered as Balkan Idol during its second season because of the adding of Skopje as the audition destination resulting in a number of Macedonian contestants making it to into the top 12, however throughout the entire running of the series its official name remained Idol only.

Hosted by Dejan Pantelić, the programme aired on Serbia's BKTV network from late 2003 until May 2005. During that time two seasons were produced, however BKTV decided not to buy the licence for the third one due to financial problems.

In 2010, the first season of Macedonian Idol started, only for Macedonia.

For the first Idol series 4 audition were held in the following cities in Serbia and Montenegro:

The second Idol series of added Skopje to the audition tour.
