this person is pissed her choice didn’t win and that’s pretty much all you need to know.
Phew. Whatta waste of time.
I don’t watch it and don’t care for it.
But its just like any other thing. If it continues to make money, they will continue to make it.
If they stop it, a vacuum will be created in that market and ten new things will be there trying to fill it.
i agree! this panel of judges is as good as the first panel... all that junk in between made me less interested in watching on a regular basis...
Seriously, if they didn't run that extra minute into the next hour, I'd never tune into it.
Or I am confusing it with some other show I don't watch?
Oops, it's on Fox. Fox runs the local news at 10PM...
Because the American people are stupid enough already.
There are now too many shows with the same concept.
Count them — THE VOICE, X-FACTOR, and now, a new show — RISING STAR.
This was in contrast tot eh first 8 seasons of Idol when there was almost NO COMPETITION whatsoever.
People are over-saturated with this.
I say 14 seasons is a good, long run for a show.
5) We here at MTV are in development on a series that is exactly like it, but features full-frontal nudity.
Exactly my impression.
The show will not end for artistic reasons. It will end when it stops making buckets of money.
check the ratings, it has been on a downward trajectory for a while now,
Very likely true
I worked a rehearsal as a weekend PA several years ago in Charlotte. None of the real names or judges were there, just assorted production types. I was treated very well by just about all of them.
Never watched it enough to amount to anything.
For some good TV check out “Turn” on AMC Sundays. Its about George Washington’s Culper spy ring, the British Occupation, and the increasing oppression which drove loyalists to “turn” to patriot.
This Sunday will be a Turn marathon on AMC.
It is the most worthless of shows for the brain dead. I call it “Americans idle”
RE: check the ratings, it has been on a downward trajectory for a while now
Yes it has.
The 2014 finale had 11 Million Viewers at peak time. That was DOWN from 14 million last season and WAY DOWN when Ruben and Clay were competing in Season 2 ( 38 million ).
Don’t get me wrong, many shows would kill to get 11 million viewers, but this trend simply shows that viewers are moving on...
Caleb Johnson looks like a young Meatloaf.He should sing some Meatloaf songs.
Just a bunch of people screaming on stage to try to win something that’s already been decided before hand.
