    I quit watching years ago. Other than Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood, can anyone tell me the names of past winners?

    I haven't watched since 'Constantine' - I got to see him on Broadway, too!! Besides, most television is boring! I spend my day listening to good music while I quilt, I mean do HOUSEWORK! LOL!

    I totally agree, watched for the 10 minutes, left the room, came back and couldn't take any more. It's a real waste of time. There is noone who can control Nicki -- who seems to feel that it's her responsibility to be obnoxious. If she was replaced, maybe I'd watch. Feel sorry for the gentlemen judges.

    I used to watch it every year, but along with most of you, the judges have turned me off this season. We need to find out who/where do we put our complaints in to. This used to be a good show. I don't care for some of the types of music but do enjoy most it for good entertainment. But the choices of judges this year have turned more people off then ever. I won't be watching it.

    Kieth and Randy are the only judges that are good. They put through talent that is not good. I used to watch this but this year I will not, just a waste of time. American Idol and America's Got Talent are some of the few shows to watch. whatever happened to the guy that won that was a 'chicken catcher"? was Skinner his name? He won and was very good. a country singer. I listen to books on tape and read, quilt and learning hair-pin lace.

    I am so glad to see that it isn't just me. I was just wondering what in the world was going on this year.

    The issue of judges will be what ends A.I. They keep changing the panel out every year, and they aren't getting better at finding replacements. I am so tired of Nicki Minaj. She is Annoying. I like Keith Urban more and more with each show. I thought I really wouldn't like Mariah, but she doesn't bother me. I miss Simon Cowell's honesty and he called it right most of the time. My problem with celebrity judges is that they have make their fans happy so they can't be honest and speak their mind.

    I agree the female judges are just ridiculous . The show is actually gone down the hill and I wish Simon was back too.
