With the season kickoff tonight...I was just curious who follows? I have been an avid follower (even boycotted when Daughtry was kicked off 2 seasons ago) but with Simon leaving after this season I might have to re-think my following. LOL

you may choose multiple choices if you like!

I'll typically watch a bit of the first few to see the really, really bad performers, but otherwise, no .

We don't watch real TV in this house... we download the shows we care about and send them to the TV from the media server. American Idol really isn't one of those shows.

We rarely watch TV here in the house. We just watch the DVD collections.

Pablum - 24 hr TV on hundreds of stations overwhelm the creative capacity of the entertainment companies - the result is reality-less TV

I admin I am something of an American Idol junkie since the talent towards the end of the show has really improved. I tend to skip the first few weeks when it's about making people look stupid. It really is just a great musical performance show if you fast-forward through judges comments and results announcements. I love Tivo!

A few years ago, I saw a few minutes of American Idol and didn't like it. Haven't seen it since.

We too do not watch TV. We got rid of cable over two years ago and since then, we only watch stuff on DVD and the lovely internets. The outcome? Less time getting sucked into TV, and the kids are running around, playing their instruments and drawing.

Yeah, since youtube, Hulu, and streaming shows on network sites, I really rarely turn my tv on that much anymore and am really starting to consider selling it! I'm not a video game person so much anymore either.

The only reality tv I watch is the Wed. night Syfy shows.

I've went out of my way to NEVER see this show!

I think you'll find that most real musicians will avoid this show like the plagued groupie. It totally short circuits things called talent and luck for a few mins of video time.

Keep rockin the underground and clubs, that's where the good music comes from!

I'm with Sammi. The only episodes I really care to watch are the first few with the really awful people who think they are amazing. Like my brother, who auditioned a few years ago and even though he sucked at singing he wound up getting to come back to the finale that year and get surprised by Clay Aiken. I actually think that part of the reason I could care less about the show is because my brother was so fanatical about it. I like a few of the performers who have been on the show, like Kelly Clarkson, Daughtry and Carrie Underwood.

I don't get TV channels. I really do wonder what kind of shows I would watch if I had them. Hard to say.

I watched like seasons 2-4 like every episode from the beginning and all that, but after that, I just got out of the habit of watching it. So I haven't watched it in years.

I won't watch it now that Simon and Paula are both gone. Simon made the show. Randy gets on my nerves. There's only so much "yo dawg" I can handle in one sitting.

I'm required to watch it for a Music and Politics of Identity class I'm taking right now, but I watched it sort of last season as well. And I love Carrie Underwood, so.

I hate it, same goes for 95% of the crude reality tv series on tv these days, which I don't watch since its all garbage and commercials *shudders* I mostly watch my stuff online via streaming (hey, its legal :3)

I could care less, I know a few people who are obsessed with it though.

you ... more
Everyone at work talk about this show. Drives me nuts. Caught five minutes of one show...and it was five minutes too much for me. Sorry. Hope you enjoy WHATEVER you want. It just is NOT for me.
