American Idol-America Don't Know Talent

Well I guess American Idol is going to start a new season in January 2008. I vowed never to watch it again after Melinda Doolittle got voted off last year by the part of America that obviously wouldn't know talent if it came up and hit them on the head! I don't know how many of you out there watch it, but I was very frustrated when she got voted off. She had proven each week that she could sing any type of music and do it to perfection. I am a musician myself, in my spare time I play guitar and do a little singing, not great, but enough to know what I'm talking about; I've been performing since around age 9 and I can tell you she should have won that competition easily! I have been debating about watching the show this year and I just don't know whether I will or not. Another thing....Have you seen most of the people that try out? My goodness, I didn't know that America was full of such no talent hacks! It is very funny to watch. Maybe I will just watch the out takes and try outs this year! Some of those people are just plain nuts!!! By the way, while I am on the subject, I may as well let that new program America's Greatest Band or Band Competition or whatever.....have a dose. Another show proving that the part of America that calls in don't know jack about talent. The black group that was on there....Brooklyn Bridge....or whatever, they were great and got voted off! The others that were left could not even come close to them in talent with the exception of Sixwire! How in the @#%$ did that happen??? The Clark brothers are pretty good also, but there is not enough of them. Anywayssss, let me get back on track here....this is the reasons that I just may quit watching shows like this. If enough of us stop watching these shows....they will go away....and then maybe we can get some good drama or sitcom shows back on!!! As an add on to this blog...I learned today, Jan 9th, 2008, that last years winner, Taylor Hicks, has been dropped from the Sony record label that signed him only a year ago. I cannot help but feel sorry for him.....but this only proves my point!!!
