That's why Baskin Robbins offers 31 flavors of ice cream...we don't all like the same thing.

......[I know, but don't watch and find it a waste of electrons].....

IDOL is sort of a reversion to yesterday where there were talent shows on TV every week. Arthur Godfrey was an icon and his show was a favorite.

In a day and time where sex and viloence and liberal propaganda are the daily TV fare, a show that allows fans to determine who is the best of the crop is very welcome.

Idol although Brit in origin, is American to the core and has led to many imitators that are literally changing the face of TV.

Watch once, pick a favorite and then root by voting.

I used to think it was so silly, too. But it's really great fun--especially our thread. Join us tonight!

I think it's some kind
of videogame that runs
on consoles even

older than the first
XBox. And you can't use that
Wii controller thing . . .
