All five of us will sit in front of the TV and holler at it all the time. I think it's because with the Olympics, you know the results before they air them. With 'American Idol,' you find out on the spot. |
I don't think people can relate to the Olympics. But they can relate to 'American Idol.' People can't imagine themselves being a downhill skier. But everyone, at one time or another, has visualized themselves on stage behind a microphone performing in front of an audience. |
We are television surfers. We haven't ignored the Olympics altogether, but if it's between the Olympics and 'American Idol,' it's 'American Idol' all the way. |
