Default AMERICAN IDOL 2

I just watched this, due to a mixture of apathy (came on when I switched on the TV) and fascination/horror.

OH-MY-GOD!

It was a complete squelch fest of 'I love you guys', and perfect smiles.

Simon Cowell is camping it up wonderfully as the baddie, and the contestants are (very unoriginally, after Will's approach) of course attacking him back. All the time blissfully unaware of course that they are boosting the ratings and lining his pockets (19 ).

It's an early knock out heat, but the things that struck me were:

All-American self confidence looks and feels like crass arrogance when viewed in comparison to our contestants.

The presenter Ryan Seagrass isn't a patch on Ant and Dec, but I suppose has a Duncan from Blue type appearance going on a BIT..

The winner of this heat was a Waller sized black guy from Birmingham Alabama, and he was wonderful.

AND, awful as it all was, I will probably be watching it again!
