Title: Do you watch American Idol?
Post by: workin4alivin on May 12, 2014, 12:15:34 pm
I like AI, but am really looking forward to So You Think You Can Dance.  From when I was young, I always wanted to dance and was pretty good.  But not SYTYCD.  With AI ... I'm glad a rocker is in the last 3.  That's good.  It'll be a hard choice all three that are left are really great!

I do also enjoy American Idol but am also really looking forward to So you think you can dance! American Idol is a little bit old news now but So you think you can dance is right up there and I believe continues to win awards. I love to see the un-tapped talent in the young dancers, some of which can perform unbelievable moves. Sadly I don't have a dancing bone in my body but I can definitely appreciate the artistry.

There are so many of this kind of program on now - it's hard to keep track.  I like American Idol - one of the first of this type.

Yes, I've been a fan of American Idol since it began.  I remember seeing Kelly Clarkson win the title.

I love the idea that these kids can be "discovered" so they can materialize their dreams if they have the courage to share  their talent.

I have watched a few bits and pieces of the show over the years but have never been interested enough to watch a whole show.

I watched the first season or maybe two; then I watched just the auditions, and sometimes the finale. Now I'm trying to keep up with The Voice

I did when the season started, but was never happy about the final people they chose and maybe because I am old school and all the young people songs I did not like an don't know them.  Don't like rockers or country so, maybe next year.

Never have watched it ever.   People in my extended family watch it & them seem to enjoy it, especially the kids/teenagers.

I watched AI and the contestant this year is better than last year. I Like Caleb, a rockstar.

I watch American Idol every week.  I love Caleb and Genna.  it is going to be hard to pick which one is going to win.  I'm pulling for Caleb because he is from my home state.

I have watched every season of American Idol.  And no matter what Harry says, this year is NOT one of the best.  I read that even though it will be back, next season is going to be cut down to almost half the amount of hours.  Probably won't show as much preliminary stuff and back stories.

Actually I used to watch American Idol, but have not in the last few years. It seems to have gotten stale.

Last AI I saw was when Chris Daughtry was booted off. After that I feel the whole show is rigged.

No.  I feel like it is fixed.  Pretty much like all the other reality shows.  I watched it maybe the first year or so but not any longer.  I do not watch any of the reality shows.

I don't really count talent shows as "reality" ... I save my dislike for shows like Housewives of ... or Survivor ... or Naked and Afraid ... or Bachelor now those are the reality shows that give the first ones in the field a bad name ... chuckle.  But each to their own.

I used to be a big fan of American Idol; until...... the year they eliminated Kelly Pickler!  After such an absurd elimination, I lost all interest!   :bad:

Watched the first season or two .. but had a friend who was really good try out for the show and all they seemed to want, at least in our city, was the ppl who were the most bizarre .. totally lost interest after that.

I was watching regularly until last week when they sent Jessica home.  That one upset me soooooo badly.  You could see the smug look on Jennifer's face when Ryan announced her as the eliminated one.  And the decision was so wrong!  But, at this point, it doesn't really matter because she will have a great career as soon as they are done touring.  Jessica was the one I was so rooting for.  She has real, pure talent, as was obvious by her "Blue Eyed Lies".   Now, I am no longer watching because I am not a fan of any of these three, least of all Jena.

I used to but not anymore. I find it hard to watch TV at night. I will just have to read the news online or find out from my other family members about the results on occasion.

I liked it when it first came out.  There are so many programs like it  now - they all compete for us to watch.

I have been watching Idol since the first season. Don't always agree with who they choose but... I hope it is Caleb that wins this week.

I watch less. I think the crowd gets to noisy to hear the singing. or its the music louder than the singing.

Not anymore. I used to watch it, a lot. But then it just got so scripted and seemed fake. Like that time with that Asian guy who sang the Ricky Martin song. Like c'mon, we all know that he was just put on for ratings. So I don't bother with the show anymore. I think it's going to end soon anyway.
