Alright, so I watched the first season of American Idol and fell in love with Kelly Clarkson. I still love her. I tried watching season 2 and got bored with it after the initial auditions. Then, last season, season 7, Carl and I, got into it because we had a friendly wager with another couple. We came up with a point system and everything. Whoever won got dinner from the losing couple. Needless to say, Carl and I did not win. Sad, I know. The bad part is that we haven't paid up on our debt either. We are so bad. Anyhow, I will now get to my point. Last season they introduced instruments at the end. Fair enough! I think it could have, maybe even should have, been done sooner. Now, there's this season. I don't get all of this extra crap they added. The round with the room of chairs. There's also the splitting of everyone into 3 groups where the top male, top female, and 1 extra advance. Then there will be 3 wild cards to complete the top 12. Let's not get into the addition of the 4th judge. It has changed so much I am bored with it again. Just wanted to share!!
wow I haven't watched American Idol since Taylor Hicks won and a lot has changed! It sounds so confusing!
And for those of us whose attention is not always the best anyway, it doesn't work!
I also liked American Idol the first season with Kelly Clarkson-I'm not sure there's been another voice as powerful as hers on that show since. I also watched the second half of the season that Reuben & Clay Aiken were the winner & non-winner duo--Clay also has a tremendous voice. I havent watched a single episode since those seasons ended. LOL
