"American Idol" beats the games (lowercase "G," please)


Yessssss. I don't get Fox, so you can't thank me. But "American Idol" put the Olympics to shame. I'm serious. I think I saw the men's figure skaters crying. Not that I was watching. I mean, it was uh, on the wire.

And about the whole "65 percent of Americans have tuned in to watch some of the Olympics" thing -- I beg you all, stop letting your dogs play with the remotes. They're making the numbers go way up.

I agree, I enjoy all of the winter olympics. I watch about 1 hour of it in the evening, even if I have checked to see who won online in the afternoon. It's not taking me away from other programming, but I don't understand why it is picked on so much. It is an old and beautiful tradition. I prefer the summer games, but the winter ones are nice to watch. The opening ceremony is awesome in the winter games. Did you see Salt Lakes opening? Why does everyone come down on the olympics?
