The Idol

I love so many actors in this series - but man oh man oh man....it's not good. And I really REALLY wanted to like it. It has heavy inferences that lead you to acknowledge the tragedies that have befallen the likes of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Amanda Bynes, etc etc etc. It gives the viewer a snapshot into why so many of them have suffered mental breakdowns and self-medicated. But there's no depth in this series. I feel like all they wanted to do was continue to glorify the savage treatment of young female artists by those who they should have been able to trust the most. They could have really made this into something - but they squandered the opportunity. If you want to see a lot of scantily clad, seemingly young (minor?) women being taken advantage of by everyone around them - then I guess this is the show for you. Personally, my time is worth more then what this show deserves.
