Yeah, That is why Im here typing. I couldnt even bear to hear Simons comments. I think he butchered one of my favourite songs. Damn you Taylor.... He has a great voice though when he uses it on the right songs. Im still rooting for him.

It was an interesting idea to begin with, and less obnoxious than many of the reality shows, but it has become a parody of itself. Just saw the movie American Dreamz which spoofs it.

That's because Britain invented it. Our version - the original - is called Pop Idol.

We still make the best TV in the world. Another show we exported to America is Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

I agree Blackleaf! And The Weakest Link started in the UK too. I remember the first Pop Idol....with Will Young and Gareth Gates. They were both so good! I've met Gareth actually, he's a total sweetie!

All right, I do have to concede that British Humour can be pretty funny. I am a big fan of Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean)

It is true that English TV has many "firsts" and are copied in "America"....but the "American" versions are usually improved versions of the "firsts".
