Australian Idol (2003–2024)
Australian Idol: The Phenomenon
17 October 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I love Australian Idol and if fact auditioned for it myself this year. It is a really great program and always gets an emotional response, even if the performances are verging on the banal. Each week you are found cheering for your favorite contestants on Sunday night, crying when they leave on Mondays (which from experience is even worse when viewed in the live audience) and learn more about them as people on Inside Idol on Thursday nights. I thoroughly recommend this fantastic display of human emotion. Enjoy the soaring heights that gain touchdowns and the shattering lows that show people the door. In 2003, Guy Sebastian was crowned the Australian Idol as was Casey Donovan in 2004. This year we have some real contenders with Anne Robertson, Dan England, Daniel Spillane, Emily Williams, Kate DeArauge and Lee Harding still in the competition after the shock departure of James Kannis (and all his lovable "Greekness") from the competition tonight. Enjoy the rest of season 3. In my opinion, this show is a lot better run and much more entertaining than other shows in the same genre like 'Popstars' (which was a huge flop in Australia) and 'Starsearch'.
