I actually can't see the interest in this; but to each his own. I know how to hit the off switch on my remote if I don't like something.
You are not the only one, joe. I don't watch AI either, especially the early episodes. I think to myself, don't these people have friends or family that tell them they can't sing?

I don't watch reality shows, just for principle. I've never watched a Survivor, and only have peeked at Wife Swap and Super Nanny when my husband couldn't find anything else.

I really enjoy dancing, though, so one night as I was flipping through channels I caught a rerun on Fox Reality of the final 12. I watched that, then got interesed enough to watch the rerun of the final 6 on FR, so I was really curious who would win.
