AMERICAN IDOL

[XV19]

yup...I'm done with Idol, until they change the voting. I saw too many crappy singers make it, and a few really good ones booted way to early. And the way the show is edited, it's just to easy to let someone really good slip thru the cracks.

It's simple; The top 12 should be decided BY JUDGES, not by America. Keep the main panel of 4, and have one Guest Judge each week..someone with SERIOUS music industry credentials. Ya get 5 people to vote, so there's never a tie. The Top 12 will be the cream of the crop..the best there is.. the ones DESERVING to be there. NO more 'Sanjaya syndrome'.

At THAT point..turn the voting over to America. Let them pick the best of the best 12. At least you know those that made it to the Top 12 got there because people WHO KNOW THE BUSINESS put them there.

It's time to turn this BACK into a real TALENT CONTEST, not the crap that it's become.
