The bad thing is, I'm not really that excited about it. I don't know, the Idol format seems to be getting a bit stale for me. I love Nigel, but I'm hoping his exit will mean fresh ideas for Idol. I'm not holding my breath, however. Good to see you again Leo! I never miss "The Idol Guy!" The good thing is, I have tickets to see the Idol concert in Dallas this month.
