American Idol season 8

There must be something completely wrong with me,because I think I'm the only person in this country that has never seen one single episode of this show. What is wrong with me??? Will I ever get over this malady?

Maybe the show just isn't for you. Nothing wrong with this. At least you are not ragging others who like the show.
 
I know Lambert has it in the bag, but I think Allen really should win this if this singing competition. Lambert is more entertainer, Allen is more singer/songwriter, which to me is what a true artist is. JMO.

I like what that poll shows, but Adam is going to win easily, she has the judges pulling for her.
I'll say it again, out of 88 million votes last week, only 1 million votes separated Adam and Kris.

It's going to be close.

I still find it hard to believe they get that many votes. Every week they break the record from the week before.
 
If Kris does win I think it will be because the anti-Lambert crowd votes him in. Adam can sing and entertain but he is a polarizing guy. Some people know he can sing but they just don't like him, me included. My opinion is he just comes across way too confident and borders on cocky with his performances without much humility.

Yeah, it's all bogus. The ratings have gone down but somehow the voting keeps going up.
 
As a massive romo fan I would like to go on record and note that letting carrie underwood slip through his hands was a terrible mistake :D

Wait, isn't accuracy kind of evidence for the notion that it is rigged?

Honestly, I don't think even the judges are pulling the strings, but people behind the scenes are.
That doesn't make sense. The website uses a program that dials in and measures the busy signals and projects a winner based on that. Last year they correctly predicted 97% of the voting results.

No, the program claims to supposedly do that.

Regardless, typically if something is predicted so accurately, especially in something that is not quantitatively, but qualitatively measurable (singing voice) that is evidence for repeatability, or predictability, which tends to be evidence for fixing.
 
Wow! The Kid Kris won it. Congrats and congrats to Adam too. Everyone in the top 10 had some serious talent and the top 5 was as good as it gets. Glad Kris won it!!!!
 
My faith in the world is restored --the screamer did not win...He should have been voted off when he destroyed Johnny Cash's "ring of Fire"
 
The best left won.

Congrats to Kris.

He will do extremely well.

A year from now you won't remember Adam's last name.
 
I really enjoyed the finale this year. KISS AND QUEEEN AMAZING STUFF.

Bummed out Adam did not win, but he was great tonight. He will shine in whatever he decides to do, whether its broadway or rock stah.

Kris, good luck and sorry about the ugly song.

The website is predicting based on a system that measures votes. Votes are quantitatively measurable.
