One thing I find when watching shows like Canadian Idol is that my taste is completely different than the rest of the nation. The people I tend to dislike, the country loves.
I take that back. Perhaps, my tastes don't differ with the entire nation. Rather, it differs with the 12-year-old girls who call in and vote. Girls who wouldn't know talent if it bit them in the butt.
Look what happened with the Much VJ search. Everyone knows Erik Bartik should have won, but alas the teenage girl vote went to the stuttering and shy Tim Deegan. Since when did stuttering and shy become valued qualities in a TV host?

Yeah...I agree. I was "cheering" for Sheldon Elter on Canadian Idol, but only because he's from Edmonton and I enjoyed him at the Shakespeare Festival two years ago. As for the VJ search, I was hoping Sean was going to win, even though I knew Tim would. Stupid kids...oh well. They're the only ones watching Much anymore anyway.
I liked Sheldon as well. But, alas, he went home way too early. That blonde brat from out east will probably win.
But, no worries, Sean got picked up by Star TV. So you might still see him around.
