And people do not know half of the past winners so as i am sure Abi will be near the top when in fact shes not near it.

NAH. lol jk I HATED FOX IDOL HATED IT. Ryan was treated like crap by Simon, the contestants were kept out of the media/news for the most part and couldn't even interact online with fans! ABC IDOL FOR THE WIN. I'll go a step further. Katy, Luke, and Lionel were better together as a unit than Paula, Simon, and Randy. Now Paula is amazing but half the time I swear she was on drugs or something. Or Nigel did something to her. (Well that may prove true because he's been accused of sex allegations.) Before ya'll drop a confused face? THINK. Don't be blinded by nostalgia, firsts, and pointy fingers out group performances. lol IN no particular order... Kelly Carrie Kris Abi David C.

I guess he was so bad to you that he didn't even make it on the list. Any list with Lee at the very bottom is automatically perfection in my eyes, and since you erased Lee, your list is beyond perfection. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The contestants were constantly on talk shows after their eliminations during Idol’s heyday. After the finale, it was like a week straight of the top two doing the talk show rounds. During the inaugural season, the finalists had blogs on the Idol website that they updated regularly and talked to fans on. I’ll give you that the show took a while to embrace social media (mostly because of Nigel), but from S13 on, they were allowed to keep their profiles active. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantasia Jordin Ruben Maddie Iam JustSam Scotty Phillip Trent Candice Caleb Nick Taylor Noah Chayce Laine (Though I'd rank him in the negatives what a prick ) Never thought of a take quite like this (maybe it's because the show was more popular/had more interviews and a tour so it looked like the contestants got more attention,) but I totally get it. I just wish ABC could have access to that level of support. I'm watching through S4 right now, and it's simply awkward sometimes...What you said about Ryan, and knowing Simon is gonna get booed even if 85% of the audience hates the person. Plus, could you imagine if someone like Elleigh Marie got cut out entirely just so they could mock some self-righteous garbage singer in the auditions? But I guess that was the showy part of 2000's RTV. Edited May 26 by NGL2008 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they all got magazine covers... Talk shows, and things like constantly being in the newspaper aside. The AI live tour aside. Oh and FOX Idol did have things like merchandise and video games. So I can't fault them there. Lol The way that American Idol's website used to have things like... Calendars with anniversaries and alumni birthdays. Behind the scenes content Interviews Games A fan forum THEY HAD BLOGS? Ugh. See this is why official websites are a dying art. Everyone is relying too much on social media to promo anything. I guess I have nostalgic vibes for FOX Idol. I have been watching since I was 16! But it doesn't have rewatch ability like ABC Idol does imo. If that makes sense. lol Edited May 26 by KelseyW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you did something real cool with Wix or whatever...But the fact that links don't even work on IG posts probably doesn't help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
