I hate american idol

The people I work with apparently have a burning need to recap daily the American Idol episode from the previous evening. They talk about the contestants as if they are on a first name basis with them and get very emotional about the outcomes. I am so happy I can honestly say I have only watched a couple of the preliminary episodes and was lucky enough to catch the one where William Hung made his now-famous debut. It was truly unforgettable, but not great enough to make me want to watch that stupid show.
