Ellen DeGeneres

I know I may have been out of touch (actually I am certain that I am) with the rest of the world. I’ve never watched American Idol or had any interest in the shows winners, mainly because I thought the show was about the judges (like the Judge Judy) and who could be the most mean spirited. The talent, or lack of talent, is really “straight man” for the judge’s routines. I know the show served a purpose for it’s viewers, some one to cheer for or to hate. A mix of pro wrestling, Glee, Judge Judy and Gladiators with the audience giving thumbs up or down. People seem to get a rush from watching programs like this even if  they not real.

Reality TV is not Real Life

I was surprised when Ellen DeGeneres decided to be a judge on the show. I am now relieved that she is leaving ‘American Idol’. ( I am certain that she is happy that I’m relieved)  I don’t think she could fake meanness.
