I know this post is a little late compared to the professional blogs and reports about Thursday's surprise in American Idol. However, I thought I would give my comment.
I do not really want American Idol. I only lift my eyes from my book I am reading when something might catch my attention. I think the show is past its prime. I have said this before, but who is the show helping? Not the winners. Are the past season winners actually doing anything? It might help the creators of the show and the advertisers. It might even help the random few who get voted off early.
Which brings me to see ya Pia. It was a shock to everyone. I think according to the judges reaction they were mad. They probably want to take away the voting rights of the American people.
If I was a casual viewer, I would feel insulted the judges we were mad at me, the viewer. That is my first reaction.
Wendy has some good points about the show. She feels that everyone thought Pia was going to win, so they did not vote for her. Pia will get a record label. I think her early exit was a step in that direction.
Another Wendy observation, which I agree, is that the past season contestants are awful. They have been bringing back guest singers. They sound horrible. I guess they have not been winners, but the rookies are better than the pros.
What do I know? They are the ones making money.
