PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

The producers are doing some fine tuning of the show to increase ratings. Are these moves a good idea.

Most of these changes make sense. I am relieved there is no prerequisite nudity or yodelling.



LL, WHAT are you thinking?

Hello seahorse.Thanks for your post.Having just read the link,I think the proposed changes are alright.Time will only tell if they are a great winner.I especially like the one about the producers raising the age limit by four years from 24 to 28.I think you`ll get alot more serious talent and experienced singers..Who knows?Time will tell..

I like the changes, but without changing the voting system, have they really accomplished anything?

I agree with you Devious Weasel. The changes are fine, but what about the voting? Isn't the voting system the one the thing that causes problems every season?

The main thing that should be done is to raise the voting time limit to at least 12 hours especially late in the season.

I think the main thing that shold be done is to raise the voting AGE to at least 12 years old.

Actually - I think there is no way to perfect the voting. If you vote for who you want to leave - all the teeny boppers will vote for the best talented person because that is who will be the biggest challenge. The only voting change I would like to see is a maximum number of calls.

10. "Or?"

They could charge for voting. Lets say......50 cents per vote.

That would cut down on alot of the power voting.

Just saying.

But that would skew the voting to the more well to do and away from poorer minorities.

It probably is, but in one of those "it's funny 'cause it's so true" ways.

Actually, I would change the voting so you had to pass one of those Jay Leno "jay-walking" quizzes before your vote could count. Can't tell me who the Vice President is. Too bad, Diana diGarmo doesn't move on. Don't know what the largest country on North America is. Sorry, Fantasia doesn't get your vote tonight.


Tell me what you need, and I'll tell you how to get along without it.

Interesting idea newsomewayne.It might distinguish the intellect levels of the voters,and then create some unnessecary conflicts.What do you reckon newsomewayne?

It was a joke, but just out of curiosity, why would you hope so?
