Oh gawd no.

Can TV go any lower?

I don’t want to know the answer to that.

[jersey117]

They lost me with Ellen. Now this? The show is finished if they bring him on.

[GoCards]

Hmmm. Interesting?

[Question Liberal Authority]

Are they burning down the show for the insurance money?

[savedbygrace]

I’m not-watching Idol this year because of their DeGeneres choice. I can certainly not-watch next year because of their Stern choice.

[albie]

My 12 and 16 year old daughters will NOT be allowed to view any longer if this is the case! This could be “American Idol’s” “jump the shark” moment! Sad. Great show. Simon is rude but likeable and honest about contestants. Stern will be lewd, crude and nasty! Why not just get Larry Flynt?

[leenie312]

First it was Ellen Degenerate...now they will have a matching pair. Idol is through

[svcw]

I have seem maybe 15 of the show (which I’ll never get back), but why that has been Howie. Good lord have these people have no shame. Oh, wait answered my own question.

[DGHoodini]

This can only end badly. A filth mouth like Stern, will inevitably say something foul, and get the network sued.

This must be where the guy who hired Kathy Lee Griffin to host NBCs New Years Eve Specials, got his new job.

[exPBRrat]

Might not be a bad fit. Simon’s caustic wit is the only reason we watch idol anyway.

[Red Badger]

Good......now it can go to rest with What’s My Line and To Tell the Truth.......................

[Kirkwood]

Officially jumped the shark

[My Favorite Headache]

This show is begging to be canceled if true.

[DGHoodini]

Lemmie guess...The remaining host will be replaced by Andrew Dice Clay....Perez Hilton.

Stink TV.

This is from Howard's last show (Thursday) on his website:

Howard asked how long it took for Sarah to sleep with someone new after breaking up with Jimmy.

Oh, and he had another girl do a Sybian ride for him.

So, is this what the female contestants will have to do to make the finals?

And is there any evidence Howard has any notion about evaluating singing talent???

[sarasota]

This can’t happen unless they want to lose half their audience.

[Theo]

Simon isn’t “nasty” in his comments. He’s simply brutally honest.

Howard Stern would simply be nasty. And probably pretty musically illiterate.

[youturn]

There goes the neighborhood.

What are they thinking? First Degenerate. Now Stern?

AI has always been a show for the whole family. Definitely NOT with Stern.

[Ingtar]

Neil Patrick Graham - That might work.

[Alice in Wonderland]

A reason to watch this season . . .
