[Red Mile Style]

I don't know why everyone is harshing this show. I mean, yeah, it might be a cash grab but who cares? What isn't a cash grab? People spend sometimes hundreds of dollars for a ticket to a concert, that's a cash grab, so are tickets for a hockey game. Does that mean just because people enjoy it and they can make money off of it, that's it's not legit? It's the nature of the beast, basic supply and demand. People want to make money and good for whoever thought up this one.

I do not watch reality t.v., I dispise American/Canadian Idol, Big Brother is so boring, Survivor is the same thing year after year, my favourite channels are IFC and the documentary channel. But for some reason I find Rockstar addicting as hell. What's wrong with auditioning for the lead singer of your band and getting the entire world to vote on who they like? It's probably a pretty thorough way of ensuring that you pick the right person for the job. I mean, they have to perform for a live audience and it's televised all over the planet. You get to see how they react in a real-life setting, it's the best audition you can provide in that scenerio.

Plus, the music is usually pretty decent, except I agree with that Ryan Star song... what a crappy song! If that guy can get a record deal, anyone can!
