I'm ashamed

OK, so I'm watching American Idol. It's a bit embarrassing, because, well, it's American Idol, and I'm an adult with brain cells. Yet, I watch. I actually enjoy the show. It's american pop culture to the Nth degree, and is geared mostly to ensure record sales (read: marketability). However, there is a talent side to the program, and usually the most talented make it to the end. For that, I'm willing to stick it out. That, and it doesn't require too much heavy thought to enjoy.
