American Idol?

Has anyone been watching this season? This may actually be thee WORSE season of them all. The judges have lost all credibility with their comments and the singers are not very good. I'll bet Paula is somehere laughing herself 2 sleep.

I totally agree. This is the worst season since Taylor won. I see potential in a few (like 2 or 3) of the people, but the rest can go home.

When the 70's rock guy was voted out, I quit the show. I had planned on giving it up this year anyway, but stuck around for the auditions. Then I stuck around for Ellen, and as much as I have loved her since day one, it didn't do it for me on A.I. I was pretty much over it at that point.

It's dead in the water.

He had potential, but he messed up when he got to the "big" show.

I agree the show is dead. Maybe it will pick up here soon.

With Simon bowing out after this season, it is over. I would NOT watch this show without Simon.

That's how the Republicans are taking over. Care about American Idol or Kate Gosselins sex life and they can put Sarah Palin next to the red button. Good going popular culture.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

I think Sarah is more about the "spotlight" and doesn't care about the country.

Maybe Bristol will audition for next year's idol. lol

I actually like a few of the girls this year. Siobhan, Didi, and Crystal are quite good.

That is the TRUTH. Except for Simon, the judging is totally nonsensical, and the voters who are helping to eliminate the best singers are even worse. Stupid show. confused

She's the only one left that I like, since she has great judgment with her song choices. All the others have absolutely no clue how to pick songs. disbelief

This is by far the worst season. It's so funny becasue in the first few live shows, the judges kept saying "OMG, BEST SEASON EVER." And then you listen to these fools and it makes you wonder if you're listening to the same people. It's so bad.

They said that last year too, this show was over about five years ago, when Taylor beat Katharine Mcphee, this is when i thought the show should be cancelled or at least changed, and not let "people" vote,the fact that a "lounge singer/elvis impersonator/leno look alike" beat a real singer that has about the best vocals in the business is sad.

This is definately the worst season ever. How the hell did Andrew Garcia get into the top 12?! The girl who was eliminated from the first live show [thank god] her singing was sooo annoying. I think the judges let a lot of good singers slip thru the net during the auditions. The only one that I like is Siobhan. I do not like Kara and Ryan Seacrest is too cocky and acts as if he is the best TV host ever. Wrong!

Ryan thinks he is the best TV show host ever. He also thinks he and American Idol are so important. I dislike Ellen as a judge (she offers nothing).

I find it incredibly obscene that Ryan Seacrest got a contract for $45 million (!) to host for 3 years and most of the actual talent on the show isn't going to get 1 percent of that amount. The whole set-up is so degrading and after jumping through so many hurdles to finally 'win', you might get a gold record and be dropped after 12 months. I really think there's something wrong with putting kids as young as 16 through that experience.
