Ok, enough said right? I don’t even need to go any further. Article=Done.
This show, you love it or you hate it. Apparently even if you say you hate it, you probably love it and are secretly watching it in your basement on your iPod. Yes, that is right, Idol on the iPod download it now-get the tunes and jam out even when Paula is being ditzy somewhere else and Randy is saying “dog” to someone but you.
The ratings for American Idol are ridiculous. Fox is in love with this show because, quite honestly, Fox loves money like all networks. And if we are talking money it is obvious this show is rolling in it. But, in all fairness, the show does have “Idol Gives Back” and they are doing some good things. So, now they are the best show on TV if you look at the ratings and they are helping people all over the world. They are like the cuddliest care bear of all TV shows now, right?
Just look at the Web and you will find that Idol blows all other programming, aired at the same time, out of the water on almost every occasion.
Even watch-dog groups like the show, saying it is wholesome family entertainment, even with mean Mr. Simon in his too tight black T.
Not only is Idol successful on Fox, other networks have talk-shows or late-night shows that talk about Idol on almost every episode. It is like constant advertisement for the show.
I mean really? My 49-year-old father loves it. He DVR’s the episodes so he can watch them with my mom when he gets home from work. What is it about this show that makes it so successful? Well, whatever it is Fox has found the fountain of ratings youth. Beacuse even when Idol sees a drop in its ratings, they still are toping the charts compared to other network's shows in the same time slots. So, it seems Idol will not be disappearing like Ruben Studdard did.
