Holographic Idol

I'll trade you my David Cook for your Kelly Clarkson. Please???

Wow... American Idol really isn't just a TV show... And I hate it. The 7-year-old reality TV series American Idol is coming out with its very own "line of trading cards". Trading cards... Exactly what audience is American Idol trying to appeal to?! Obviously not kids, because FOX should know that kids don't watch American Idol. It's on during Suite Life of Zack & Cody and Hannah Montana. Why does life pose such difficult questions...? Not. What the heck else is American Idol gonna do with their money?! The show makes money because of all of it's sponsors. You get companies to sign on like Coca-Cola and Old Navy and you WILL have a surplus of money. Because they give Idol lots of money. Lots. Because you can't swing a dead cat at an American Idol episode without hitting 7 commercials of both Coke and Old Navy. So what would any wise franchise (<-rhyme) do with a surplus? Exactly, set up a really dumb idea that the people on VH1 can make fun of in their "I Love the (Insert decade)" shows. Kids barely buy enough Yu-Gi-Oh cards to keep that franchise afloat. What could possibly make American Idol think that trading cards will work?! Because they are living in the past, in all aspects of the statement. The idea of the show is old. The judges are getting old. Horrible auditions are getting old. American Idol has the inability to innovate. Therefore, they have crappy ideas, like trading cards. But if for some reason you would want them, you can Catch 'Em All(!) April 21st. The bravest person on American Idol... Poor guy was exploited so negatively. But I give this guy major props for following his dreams. He sounds bad, but I totally respect him. At least he's on pitch. It's too bad people like Simon Cowell exist in this world... :\
