My mother.

She lives downstairs and likes the volume such that I can hear the music and cheering. I also hear ALL about it from her and once (only once and never again) she made me phone and vote for an hour or two. It was about as exciting as picking lint and cat hair off a wool suit.

I don't know if I'd admit to being a fan, but I decided to watch this year...

The whole family loves it. Can't wait for the serious auditions to start next week.

We used to be. Our wedding song was a moment like this by Kelly Clarkson. We fell in love with her when we saw her audition.
After Fantasia No Talent Barino and Rueben Studdard one, I kinda lost interest. Mind you, I looooved Daughtry. Unfortunately, I ended up going back to work after Mat leave and am working tues, wed, so I miss it!
Hopefully I can catch it once in awhile

Sure it is, tell that to the artists who are making the mega bucks and winning awards - great singers.

I just love American Idol!! :smt054

Well, the first round anyway - the auditions are hilarious, especially Simon Cowell's comments!! :smt005

Once it gets on to the more serious rounds :smt034

I generally lose interest!

I've only ever watched it a handful of times past the auditions... I find it kind of boring and dragged on. Maybe this season though, I must (reluctantly) admit that I've enjoyed the auditions...
