Yet ANOTHER American Idol

Is it just me, or do the producers of these "reality" shows beat the heck outta them? First Survivor, now this. Previous to these were Joe Schmo, Joe Millionaire, etc. Coming up is My Big Fat Greek Fiance. Whats next?

Is anyone else getting tired of these reality shows?

Oh, and that brings me to my next rant: How does a show which involves a person playing a millionaire that picks out a woman to marry qualify as "reality"?

Stupid television.

Yeah, I'm watching it now, since I dont feel like flipping through the channels. It is funny, however, watching these horrible people sing, as GC pointed out.

And as Martoch said, what happend to the good shows? Magnum P.I. used to be on A&E, and now Murder She Wrote or something crappy took its place. Magnum kicks ass.

Magnum was a great show. Maybe it will be out on DVD someday

I have a feeling that these bad singers were hired by Fox to make fools of themselves. C'mon! They are obviously terrible and I'm sure anyone with that much talent (or lack of it) would know better.

I only watch the tryouts for american idol. Remember that guy last season who tried to sing "like a virgin"but he was just terrible? I'm waiting for another one of those .

I don't know. My mother is a terrible singer but she doesn't think so.

Do like me : don't watch it. They overdo it because people watch it.

Personally, it doesn't interest me at all.
