Watching local news--Seacrest says that during the next auditions (starting in August) Idol will focus more on the talent and less on the celebrity judges. Seems like they're getting the message.

They better get the message, because they have totally lost sight of what this show is really about, and what made it popular.

According to entertainment news, for yesterday's finale show FOX averaged a 17.2 rating/28 share for the night and about 29.5 million viewers -- down sharply from the 36.4 million who watched last year's "Idol" finale.

AI is still the #1 show on TV, but it lost a lot of ground this season.

They also better get their heads out of their *sses and realize that when they diss winners they also diss the fans that got that winner there. They don’t have to like the style of music that their current winner does, just let the performer do their thing and the fans will do theirs.

Their obvious manipulation and disparagement of winners only makes them look bad and brings the whole show down after they spent so much time building it up.
