The Resume

Why American Idol 10 - 2011 might be annoying:

    Simon Cowell did not judge this season because he left the series to focus on developing the US version of 'X Factor.'
    Another former judge, Kara DioGuardi, reportedly lef the show in order to 'start a family.'
    Some television critics were skeptical of the replacement judges, Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler and pop star Jennifer Lopez.
    'Idol' producers and FOX TV executives moved the show from its long running 'Tuesday-Wednesday' timeslot to a 'Wednesdy-Thursday' timeslot, reportedly to avoid ratings competition from rival reality TV show 'Dancing With the Stars.'
    Some criticized that Lopez and Tyler were too 'soft' in judging during the regional auditions.
    There were claims of a 'gender bias' because the first five contestants eliminated in the Finals round were all female.
    Crazy rumors of contestants Casey Abrams and Haley Reinhart dating flooded gossip websites and tabloids.
    The live performance show in which the final two contestants perform was beaten in the ratings for the first time by the 'Dancing with the Stars' 12th season finale.
    Entertainment columnist and critic Nikki Finke complained that the contestants sounded like 'cats being strangled.'

Why American Idol 10 - 2011 might not be annoying:

    At least contestants did not have Simon Cowell assaulting their eardrums with scathing comments.
    The show's ratings improved slightly above the previous year's ratings.
    Finally! Two musical superstars are the ones doing the judging for a change!
    The judges saved Casey Abrams after they, along with fans, were shocked by his early elimination.
    Singers such as Lady GaGa and Babyface served as mentors for the contestants in some weeks.
    After being eliminated, Pia Toscano sang on a 'Dancing with the Stars' results show.
    Scott McCreery became the youngest male contestant to win in the series' history and the second youngest overall (as of 2011).
    He also became the first country-oriented contestant to win the competition since Carrie Underwood in 2005.
