Why Bother to Watch?

They finally kicked out Tim Urban off American Idol tonight. But it's the way they did it that was downright dirty. The camera focused on him a lot throughout the night. And when he got the boot, they didn't even allow him to sing. They're supposed to sing down to the top five idols. Okay I know he wasn't the greatest singer out there besides the judges have already decided on their winner and don't be surprised when she wins.

And what's with the length of the show? Was it really necessary? And then we had to sit through the longest sessions of commercials. And the 'talent' they had was mediocre at best. I understand the idea behind a telethon but this was plain bad. I was surfing the net and blogging during the boring parts anyway.
