This "American Idol" Thing is Huge!

The full article can be found here.

"The ratings juggernaut that is "American Idol" had a monster season premiere Tuesday, coming back with a vengeance to post its highest opening-night numbers yet with more than 35 million viewers."

35 MILLION! Why?! How can so many people sit down and watch this, year after year, when every season is exactly the same as the last?! The one judge (whose name I cannot remember) lets everyone down easy, Paula loves everyone, and Simon beats everyone with the "You suck!" stick. The first season wasn't bad. Even the second one. But seriously... if they don't start doing something a little more innovative, I'm not really going to care to watch Season 24 of American Idol.

It's just like Survivor. Or any other "Reality TV" show for that matter. I don't know how people can watch that stuff.

Comments:
I never really saw what the big deal is. Give musicians who actually write their own stuff some credit, not a puppet with vocal chords.
