"American Idol is an entertaining show that the entire family can enjoy because it focuses only on the surprisingly good performances turned in by talented young singers."

LOL, they've obviously never watched more than 2 minutes of that show.

Their top 2 shows, JOAN OF ARCADIA and DOC, both star left-wing liberals, Amber Tamblyn and Billy Ray Cyrus.

Ahhhh...Reba McEntire.

Her show may be #4 but she is #1 with me.
(Right behind Mrs. B.S. Roberts, of course.)

Any "ten best" list not mentioning "Stargate SG-1" is worthless.

I'm surprised Nip Tuck ain't in there. Each episode the viewer is guaranteed at least 17 inches of total ass crack, at least one partial nipple and 4 piston driving sex scenes. I pretty much watch it every week. But then again, I'm a sick pup.

I agree with Will & Grace, that is a terrible show, I don't see how people can think it is funny. All I can say there are a lot of people without a life to watch that trash. I would rather read the phonebook

While Everwood is liberal on many issues, it does show the consequences of sex including an unplanned pregnancy.

#8. American Idol - Fox (air dates and times vary) American Idol is an entertaining show that the entire family can enjoy because it focuses only on the surprisingly good performances turned in by talented young singers.

Simon Cowell

Did you even watch the show or did you let your chimp type the review for you?

I actually watched Nip/Tuck for the first time this past Tuesday and was blown away by the performances and the show overall (of course, I really tuned in just to see the delicious Leslie Bibb, but that's beside the point). I can't wait to see it next week.

May be, but at least Amber doesn't sport a mullet (I know, Billy Ray doesn't anymore either). She's also easy on the eyes. Not to mention I think the show is pretty dang good, it shows a good family, working through it's troubles, is centered on religion even, and gets high marks in the ratings. It's not all syrupy like Touched by an Angel, but gets the point across, nevertheless.

And - if you've heard Billy's version of "Some Gave All" that was reworked with the names of the murdered sailors from the USS Cole (as read by President Clinton), you'd swear he wasn't a liberal.

Yeah, most people I know watch American Idol JUST for the BAD performances that they show. I'd say good/bad is about equal for the show in the early rounds.

"Do you agree?"

I certainly disagree about giving the approval to "Joan of Arcadia."

This whimsical show misrepresents God to a most dangerous degree. Kids who watch that show will be imprinted with a perception of God that is completely false.

Don't forget the blood and guts in Nip/Tuck. Great show, but it's the first one I thought of when they mention "worst shows for family viewing." Let's not forget the little affair between the tutor and the kid either.

These are not my reviews. They belong to the Parents Television Council.

I watch American Idol primarily to see the first two or three rounds of "cattle call" eliminations. I have a perverse interest in people who have no clue about how they come across to others. Many of the poor, deluded souls think they have talent.

Isn't that O.C. show (or whatever it's called, I think it's on Fox) risque, too?
