I'm with Downhilln, it's funny watching people make idiots out of themselves, but the idea of a pop star or whatever is lame. They should have a heavy metal version of American idol or something. :think:

You guys are just too cool. I'll revel in my lameness and enjoy the show.
The first episodes are good but when they get down to like the top 10 it starts to get boring.

They have that Ozzy show on one of the music channels with the bands trying to get on the Ozzfest, I think that is close to what you seek.

TV is your friend.

I caught a glimpse of it while my sister was watching...there was this insane bitch on, I think she's going to go home and plot to kill off the judges. She said she has..."voices". :think:

I watch it sporadically. Sometimes I tape it and ride to it, it keeps me entertained on the trainer then.

the really funny thing is that they are looking for good singers (hence the opening a capella round, where you can't hide behind a band or studio trickery), when in reality it's been shown that the majority of pop stars today cant' sing their way out of a paper bag.

and is it just me, but did whitney houston ruin pop singers w/ her style of hunting all over the goddamn scale for the note? that's seriously irritating. and everyone does it now.

I don't watch it, but it's not funny to me that people across the nation are bagging on someone that thinks they are incredible. Some folks are delusional and others that don't have the balls to try something they may suck at too are making fun of them. Lame really.

*I think that any *star* that would be a judge is a sell out and usually they suck more than anyone on the show.

-S.S.-

I can't really bag on anyone who watches this show, since I am a big fan of the Surreal Life and the Swan...but I have to say this is one of the worst shows in my opinion. Is it me or do they always have people that HAVE to know they suck and they're just waiting to become the next William Hung? It's like hey, I'll go on there and make an ass of myself and someone will think it's funny and I'll get famous. Like I have no clue what the winner looked or sounded like this year...but I know who William Hung is...unfortunately...

I heard that anyone that wants to be on the show has to audition for the producers then the judges(simon cowell,fat black guy,and the wierd mexican chick).The producers pick the worst bad people to make the show more interesting.so it really isnt a search for pop stars, its a search for people to get humiliated(which is pretty damn funny). i agree yojimborace they do need a metal american Idol, they should have slayer be the judges. I'd most definately watch that show.

who would be the judges? here are my choices:

rick rubin
ronnie james dio
Ashley Bird (Kerrang! Editor)

if RJD can't make it, i'd have scott ian as backup.

Reality TV is no worse or different that going to a movie, unless of course it's a real true documentary, or reading a fiction novel, or watching a sit com or any untrue tv show, or sitting on the internet all day...stuffy bastard!

Holy Crap! I just realized that documentaries are actually the purest form of reality TV...
