    Anybody watching this train wreck? I missed the first night but the commentary that comes out of Nikki and Mariah to the potential singers is horrible. Everyones a star, should be selling albums, its a joke. Mariah is an emotional wreck crying, the facial expressions. Nikki flirting with every guy and you can tell really struggles to have any good commentary on a singers talent or lack there of and just comes across clueless.

    I watched. You forgot to throw in that Keith Urban is a bore and says nothing.

    That weird chick Kez Ban sang probably the 1st quality original song that i've ever heard somebody sing on any of these shows.

    Nikki is making the show unwatchable with her commentary. That dude Lazzaro story was nice. The guy who stutters whenever he talks but when he sings.. his voice doesn't stutter. I don't know how but thats Gods Gift. God takes away something and gives you something way way better.

    Interesting that American Idol is still going strong.

    I lost interest after like the second season because I thought it was the same thing over and over again. Honest question, how many actual stars did this show produce... I only know of Kelly Clarkson and that Chris dude.

    Caught the first night just to see and marvel how it's still somehow going...they did that one girl wrong when Randy showed up to her bar and personally gave her a number for the auditions then turned her down when she sang in front of the panel...wtf can you not do your homework first and see if she can actually sing?

    Voice is a better show, though in either case the only thing worth watching is the auditions.

    Not to be overly cynical...but I would much rather be able to talk fluently than sing fluently...

    Carrie Underwood! Nice to look at. :)

    I record this show so I can fast forward all the sob stories, and extra crap they do, like the nicki and mariah fake feud. and its like 1 hr and 30 mins of crap, 30 mins of singers.

    I watched some tonight and I thought Nikki was pretty funny -- definitely the 'star' of the show.

    that true but you can look at it either way. As you can see, Music was his life.. I don't know I was just trying to look at it in a positive way.

    I think the only "successful" winners of the show has been Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood.

    I found Nikki annoying at first but she may be the most interesting one to listen to on the panel imo. She obviously has the stronger personality of the bunch and is the comic relief. Take her away and I think it would be totally boring with the remaining panel.

    I'm with you. I can't stand her. She's also a terrible rapper.

    Chris Daughtry had pretty massive success. Adam Lambert is still up in the air, has had a couple of singles and might have decent success. Jennifer Hudson has been very successful in the theater/acting world + commercials and all. Phillip Phillips has had a lot of success with his 1st single after winning last year. Kellie Pickler has had moderate success as a country artist
