It's the final 36!!!


I've never been a big fan of reality TV as most reality shows suck the world wide wad. There are a few diamonds in the rough though most notably Survivor (the first and arguably still the best reality series), Hell's Kitchen (Gordon Ramsay FTW!) and yes.... I'm ashamed to admit it.... American Idol.

Now I haven't watched Idol for a few years. Actually not since Taylor Hicks won it in 2006.

Last month whilst flipping through my HD channels I came across the season premier of Idol where I witnessed Simon ripped this poor young boy a new A-hole for singing like shite. OMG I was hooked!!!

I forgot just how fun it can be to watch another persons misery. {insert evil laugh muahaha}

Ok, ok..... in all seriousness, many people scoff at Idol and say it's a lame show. On one level it may be but over time, as a viewer, you really get to know the contestants and become attatched to your favourites. You feel their ups, downs and heartbreak when Simon tells them to piss off.

Now that is good TV!!
