WHO FUCKING CARES?
Not to put down the talent of all of the contestants involved, but this show is the biggest tool in the television shed. The producers always get their way with getting the contestants they want in the finals. Sometimes, the right person doesn't win, but everyone in the Top Ten ends up with recording contracts so they will all succeed or fail on their own merit (or lack thereof) either way. The voting system is a joke and grossly rigged. The original songs written for the "winner" are horrible. The most interesting singers are presented as walking jokes more or less and thrown off for not being accessible, mainstream, and therefore "American" enough. And what, exactly, does "Scotty the body" really imply?
In the end, all that really matters is how much Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez's waning careers are boosted as a result of telling kids how good they are paid to think they are. Jennifer acts like she's going to win an Oscar for being a judge on this weekly trainwreck and Steven is probably putting this toward some type of community service plan since so he can keep getting away with being a total drug addict. When will this country be over this myriad of over dramified yearly singing shows where almost no one who wins becomes very successful and anyone with actual taste becomes marginalized? I guess the only nice thing I can say is that some mildly interesting talent is actually discovered along the way.
.....now what time is The Voice on?
As for Oprah's belated departure, I'm not watching it, but its very presence demands comment.
Couldn't have said it better myself
