That was definitely one Simon Fuller got wrong!

 

Where is it munchkin? I'll see if I can upload it then post it on here.

 

Don't if this will work - D's a bit funny with links. If not it's Picture This - Page 86 Screenshots by L-MO - 4th picture.

I've got a beauty in my files but we can't do thumbnails on here like we can on D - shame - it's a great picture - sums up exactly what he thought of the whole shebang :lol: Chrysalis may have it too - it's actually the picture before the one she posted - if she saved all the screenies at the time.

 

He was obligated to that and was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. Thanks god he can choose what he does now. They had him by the short and curlies.

Every picture tells a story. ;)

Thanks munchkin, he looks so pissed off in that pic. :lol:

 

Carrying on with the WI scenario, this is a very interesting review of the show and so true, I've highlighted a reason as to why the show should never have been aired.

The other obvious problem is that as well as us not caring about the contestants, the contestants don't care about the competition. Will Young, for example, is one of the most famous people in Britain and has sold millions of records. What does it matter to him if the Polish judge doesn't like him? He's already a winner, as are all the other contestants. On the normal Pop Idol, the judges' comments have value - Simon or Pete suggesting that, say, Mark is never going to be a star without charisma is a useful thing to say and Mark can learn from it. On World Idol, though, Will doesn't need to be told that he isn't very good because he knows that he is, and can prove it through record sales and critical acclaim. Will is not going to be losing sleep over losing that all-important Norwegian market.

 

That's the basic problem - who cares who wins? Ant and Dec seemed to spend an awful lot of time asking us to vote for our favourite, but to what purpose? The prize for winning World Idol is that they become World Idol - that's it. All the finalists already have record deals and are all famous in their own countries, which is probably about the limits of their ambitions. Maybe there's some sort of kudos in being named the best of them all, but it means nothing to the viewer. The fact we can't even vote for Will further diminishes the appeal for viewers at home. If it was charity, maybe there would be some incentive to phone, but this competition has been created for no purpose other than to line the pockets of the two Simons.

 

Yes it is TT - thanks - In the picture I've got his smile is a bit wider but it doesn't touch his eyes - they are completely devoid of emotion. He has such an expressive face you know exactly what he's thinking :lol:

 

Thanks Suggy - 100% on the nail. :thumbup:

Thanks for posting that review Suggy. :thumbup: They've put in a nutshell what the majority thought about the show, especially about the lining of the two Simons' pockets.

No I didn't have it Munchkin, but I see TT has brought it across. :thumbup: I've got several including one of a determined looking Will pulling an equally determined looking Kelly Clarkson. Looks as if they couldn't wait to get off the stage.
