Ten TV Series That “Everybody” Watched Except Me: American Idol (#3)

American Idol Aired on Fox (original) and ABC (current) 2002-2016; 2018-present Now I have seen an American Idol contestant live: Bo Bice, as lead singer for Blood, Sweat & Tears:

@FourWalls I watched that here in Israel. There are some special people that came out of that show. It reminds of how some got their start from Saturday Night Live.

I don’t watch that show any more. I watched the first few season then it lost my attention. I do some times still watch so you think you can dance. I usually see who they choice and if anyone I like I’ll watch the show through if not I stop after they get to the top 10.
