When Jordin Sparks was crowned "American Idol" 6th season champ back in the spring of 2007, we'd never watch the reality wreck again. Why? Let me count the waysBecause: She couldn't belt it out like Kelly Clarkson, she couldn't emote like Fantasia, and she couldn't captivate a crowd like Carrie Underwood.. And she was boring. We are too lazy and addicted to care what anyone thinks of us. "Idol" is our guiltiest pleasure, and we've come to embrace it. Because we're tuning in, doesn't mean that everyone else will join us on January 13 when Season 8 kicks off.
Last season the ratings dipped. Granted, an 8% decline isn't enough of a drop to freak out about, especially when more than 27 million people still tune in, but if the show doesn't deliver early on this year, more and more disgruntled fans might consider flipping the channel. So, what to do when "Idol" becomes idle?
