Any Idol Fans?

I heard on the radio today while driving home that American idol was starting again today.
does anyone here get into that show?  I haven't watched it much the last few seasons, but I am interested to see how Ellen does as a judge.

I used to watch Idol, but to me it has run its course. I don't watch it anymore.

I turned it on @ 8 but lost interest real fast.  I will watch if there is someone that I like.

[rkdtlb]

i also turned it off...maybe when it gets into the season

I never liked it, never will, do not understand the craze and do not care about it.

I just heard that Simon is going to be leaving after this season. Say goodbye to IDOL!   I have to give Ellen a good credit for this year. Maybe this is her chance to be top woman in this field. She is a great performer!

I think American Idol is great!  It is fun to watch it in the beginning because you see the good and bad singers.  Some of them are soooo bad that you have to feel sorry for them.  I think Ellen will be a good addition to American Idol.  I think she will make it real funny.  We will see.  I miss Paula a little and I am not sure about what it would be like without Simon.

I started watching this season and so far its great, I cried last night after the girl from the small country made it. Everything she said made me believe she was full of life. Did you guys see that Mary J. Blige (might have spelled her name wrong) was a guest panelist last night? Was it just me or did she come off to be like a bi**c?

I can understand why the show would be fairly popular, but I have never understood why it is a popular as it is? Talent shows have been around for years and years, it is nothing really new or different.  The fox news stations cover American Idol, like it is VERY important news!  It is very silly and ridiculous, there are far more important news stories to cover.  I guess because it is BIG money.  Maybe it is winding down..........

I only watch Idol during the audition segments. The auditions are so funny. It is hard to believe that so many people who can not sing at all, would tryout for a national televised talent show. You have to have some real courage to do something that bold. I basically only watch Idol for the auditions because they are too funny to miss.

I watched it the first season. It just got on my nerves after that. The same thing with Dancing With The Stars. I just never saw the big deal with it.

[wsydephatty]

  I usually watch it every year, but not every night it comes on like I used to.  I probably won't watch after this season, with Simon leaving.  I know Ellen was supposed to be on and I was anxious to see how she gets on with Simon, but I have yet to see her on there...guess she's just a guest judge.

[mlmhome]

not really!
