Canadian Idol

I watched and enjoyed American Idol, so I was skeptical that the Canadian version could improve on the formula, but they totally have. The show is smarter, funnier, and more touching too - plus the Canadian competitors seem to be way more talented. I especially love that Jon Dore guy - he's hilarious! And Ben Mulroney is surprisingly funny too - his voiceover comments constantly crack me up. I can't wait to see who wins it - I already have a few favorites!

The only way this show can flop is if this guy does not win. I find that he is the best every week. I mean Mikey Bustos sucked I am glad he is gone, Toya Alexis sucked I am gad she is gone, Tyler Hamilton was better than Jenny Gear, why is he gone and she's still there?

Looks like Canada are just as bad at voting as the Americans.

CTV Bring this back! Or can you ask Simon Cowell for a X Factor for at least one season? Please?

I think that this show is not that bad. It is just like all the other reality music shows.

They find some people who can sing pretty well, they take tbem to Toronto to do the competition.

They put them in groups of 10 and they perform in front of the camera and Canada votes for who they want in the Top 10. In my opinion I have not agreed with the way Canada has voted in a long time *coughs* (Paul Martin)

Then they all sing their hearts out and prove that they are the the true Canadian Idol.

The Idol then gets "crowned" gets their 15 seconds of fame and is never heard of again...ie Ryan Malcom, Ruban Studdard, Kelly (whoever)

I would much rather be a Canadian singer then a Canadian Idol.

I think the show is fun to watch and it is entertaining and to top it all off Ben Mulroney makes the show a WHOLE lot easier to watch.

Grade. B (B is for Ben)

I watched both American Idol's (well I didn't follow the second season as well as I did the first season.) And I even watch American Juniors. I was so happy to hear that Canada was doing Canadian Idol, and couldn't wait for the show to air. When it did, I was not disappointed. I love how they even got a 'Simon' on this show too. I love how they don't sugar coat everything they say as Paula Abdul did.. And... that's all I have to say!
