Even if you watched it just once, you could at least discover what all the "buzz" is about.:-)<br /><br />It's music, mayhem, and a mixture of other stuff in between. I don't think you'd find it boring. That's just my 2 cents.:-)Jennifer Brown Banksnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632640970016916029.post-5613630811708618192010-02-25T14:38:38.063-08:002010-02-25T14:38:38.063-08:00Thanks for gleening something useful from the show...Thanks for gleening something useful from the show.

Think how many former Idol candidates have been bashed by Simon Cowell and gone on to greatness!
