Singapore Idol
After 2 episodes, I'm a little disappointed with Singapore Idol. Somehow, it feels as if it's trying too hard to model itself after American Idol. Very contrived. Even the sarcastic remarks by Dick Lee seems to have been heard from Simon's mouth before. And the contestants just aren't as colourful, some of whom are obviously there not for the competition but to get a TV appearance. I'm hoping it will pick up later.
