I watch the try out shows every year but the last few years I haven't bothered past that.
First of all hads no one noticed the commericals EVERY 5 minutes!!!!! How disnchanting that because they can get big bucks for commercials that they have them every five minutes.
PLUS.... where is the excitement in guessing anymore. I noticed last year and this too that if they show a biography.... the person is IN

.
So that kinda shoots the whole point if they tell you ahead of time how the person made it before they sing. They do this with the later shows also...JUST WATCH.
