Are you a fan? I came late to enjoy American Idol, probably not until season 4. Usually, my daughter and I get sucked into the excitement late in the season when there are only a handful of singers left. We usually forget when it's on due to the kids' activities. For some reason, we've managed to watch the end of a couple of episodes already this season. Last night, we watched the whole thing. I must say it was fun to see Simon say, "I have to admit you were right." He said that about the Dolly Parton singing girl. Simon admitting he was wrong! Amazing. I've seen enough really good singers this season to be hopeful that the competition will be great fun to watch.

So are you an American Idol fan?
