The contestants are all overated and far to cocky to be talented at all. Maybe the reason why the programme is failing is due to American audiences finally realising that they have a right to be discerning and not to accept anything that the American television and music industry is throwing at them. I also think it is important to mention here that the music industry has changed drastically in the last 20 years in the avenues which allow non productive workers ie, not performers to be the major income source via the provision of secondary services, i,e marketing and pr, management and photgraphic promotions packages, money laundering for the merchanidising of products etc. It is this gross manipulation of wanabe artists and established artists which needs rethinking.
