thoughts?

Not really into that show.

I figured that would happen. I don't think the show will last long without him.

Good, now I won't have to hear about the show all day.

"OMG Did you see who got voted off last night!?"

"Nope"

"That Simon! He cracks me up! OMG I love American Idol"

That's awful, he's my favorite judge on the show. I might even stop watching the show after that.

More like..

"OMG like..he just like got voted off and i like can't believe it he was like so cute and i was like..so shocked" :P..

Another negative

Last season's winner has his annoying song played everywhere

Yes, since he is the producer of XFactor (if I heard right), he will make more money on that show.

Plus, the show lost any credibility it had left by hiring Ellen D.

And my new conspiracy is that Paula had no intention of signing a new contract so that Simon could bring her on XFactor (but I could be totally wrong if they had contracts of only one season)

people still watch this show

...They hired her? Wow, I've never been more thankful that I don't watch.

OMG YEAH!!!!!! even though i only watch the try outs

Not surprised, he's been talking about leaving for quitea long time now. I'm surprised that show is still even running, and wouldn't be surprised if this is the last year of American Idol. And if not, it will definitely be crap after Simon leaves. Well more like super crap since it's not the best show out there right now anyways lol.

[QUOTE="rawsavon"]In all honesty, I have never seen an episode...not my thing...but sucks for those that enjoy it -I have heard that he makes the most $$$ in TV though...why give that up?ATKisNeat

Am I the only one who thinks he'll just get a huge offer to stay?bluezy

Nope. He is leaving it for XFACTOR, in which he will be the producer of, where the REAL money is.

Ones he and Paula are both gone i probably will only watch the beginning.
