      Sure, I was all snobby at first, like some of you reading this. Didn't see the first season, or the second. Saw five minutes of the third season and was hooked.

      I detest all the contestants. But I have to watch.

      Best TV show ever!!

      Everrrrrr!!!!!

      Go ahea, laugh. You just don't get it. It really is. The. Best. Show. Ever. Anyone who disagrees is just wrong. Bad and wrong. Don't argue with me! You are wrong! Wrong, I tell you! Bwaa haa haa haa haaaaa! Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!

      <swallows pill, takes deep breath>
      Far be it from me to tell you your wrong, Maddie!!! AAMOF...I completely agree with you. It's a brilliant concept; a great formula. It's a show one either loves or hates. For many it's a show they love to hate. But they just keep watching! It's entertaining and people love to be entertained. The show is making a bundle. And that is, after all, what it's all about. I'd love to know what it costs to air a 30 second commercial. Plenty, I bet!

                      Re: American Idol Season Five (2006)

                      Is it true this show is airing three nights a week? I mean, I know it's popular, but that seems to be a pretty sure step towards overstaying its welcome. Reminds me of when "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" was top dog... and ABC killed it by spreading it to several days.

                      What a great moneymaker, though. Ratings far and above the competition. "Talent" that they get for a song (pun intended), essentially own outright, and get to exploit further when they "win."

                        The boys sing Tuesday, the girls sing Wednesday, and on Thursday the losing girls/boys are eliminated. But later in the season it airs twice weekly, after they winnow the field down a ways.



                        I'm so glad I don't have to look at Brenna any more! All that posing -- yeesh, the girl loves herself a bit much
                        .

                        ETA: Uh, hello, where's my spoiler text?

                          I think the show has some intensity. It really is hard to figure out its outcome over the few weeks. as a former record producer I use the show to tease my brain if I can spot the talent and who goes on or who loses. I wish Sway could have lasted a bit longer he has a unique voice, If only sang the song the same way he did it on his exit from the show i think that would have kept him in. Tyler Hicks is one I would have never guessed on. Hip-Hop was my arena, so I guess I am opening my eyes a bit.

                          42 million votes? damn if you could attach a dollar to each vote.....lots of cash. Even a penny!

                          Whats up dog?

                          Am I dreaming or is Paula lusting after all the guys?

                            Paula does seem to be lusting quite a bit, and I love her outfits. Did you see her last night, with her boobs falling out all over the place? And I think she's high again. I love high Paula so much more than sober Paula. Much more fun!
                            But I wish people would stop booing everything Simon says. He's only being honest and telling them what they need to hear, but he gets shouted down for offering *constructive* criticism. Stupid audience!

                              Paula definitely took one too many happy pills last night. I'm still confused about the pizza and salad comment.
