Jesus...with those kinds of ratings, why on Earth would they wait so long? I was considering watching the next one, but I'm not sure if time is on my side.


They hold it off for so long, to give time for the current American Idol(this years winner) to be "pimped" by the new season..AKA Free publicity. They also do it, because if it were to come back in September, it would be OVEREXPOSURE to the max, and it would just get old. By January, people forgot about last year, and are ACHING for a brand new season.

I think it suffers from overexposure right now, but the ratings certainly don't agree with me.

I think last year American Idol may have been overexposed, they had so many ancilliary specials, Final 5 interviews, final 3 goes home, The best of the worst. This year it seemed more streamlined and focused. Which I think is the way it should be done. I will only have 5 days of no idol as Canadian Idol starts it's third season on May 30.

Bo vs. Carrie should be an interesting showdown. I favor Bo, but have no idea how the vote will turn out.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that there are more pop/rock fans that watch the show than Country, so I'd guess Bo will take it - unless he vomits on stage, does a line of coke, and calls Simon a dillhole next week.

As for the show, it's like Survivor... as long as their are interesting contestants it will be a hit, and will not overstay it's welcome. Heck, I won't mention Mav's name, but we've got people who hate the show, but still like to join our discussions. That's a testament to just how interesting of a show it is!

\:D/ If this season is half as good as last *melts into puddle of goo at the thought*

Oh and Bo has this in the bag. But Carrie is still my fave. I have a feeling it will turn out like season 2, where the top 2 both get record deals right away.

I'm just playing devil's advocate, because I do agree with you... but, I hate to underestimate middle America - the gun toting, toothless hillbilly, republican, country music lovers.

I didn't mean to suggest that's the only people who like Carrie... just one of her many core demographics.

Only the top two or three get record deals from the show, the other's will have to get one on their own.

It's all good.

But I hate how they're pimping Bo as the "sure thing" to win. I would love it if he didn't just in spite, but a deserving winner would win also.

This is it.. Tonight The Final American Idol Competition between Bo Bice and Carrie Underwood: Who takes it?? :-k The Rocker or the Country Singer who probably would've benefitted more on the show "Nashville All Stars" on USA Network which is just a ripoff of AmAlrighterican Idol..

Why do you say that? If Carrie were on Nashville Stars, she would've been exactly like every other person in the competition.
