The Twitter world is ablaze today with commentary on Simon Cowell’s pending departure from American Idol.
Here’s just a sampling of the comments I’ve caught today. I’ve included my favorites.
In addition to these, there was a mid-morning campaign calling for Sue Sylvester (who plays Jane Lynch on “Glee”) to replace Simon.
andysack: “I for one won’t watch American Idol without Simon Cowell.”
thatboyG: “Does anyone care that Simon is quitting American Idol? On the real, the show stopped being interesting after the first couple of seasons.”
Claudebaby: “American Idol will never be the same w/out Simon Cowell, I think it’s gonna die soon.”
Cadeely: “American Idol without Simon Cowell is just not American Idol.”
mariannexjonas: “SIMON COWELL CANT LEAVE IDOL. I’m auditioning whether he’s there or not but he BETTER not!”
RobArcher: “If they replace Simon Cowell with Dr. Gregory House, then I’ll watch American Idol.”
mickyB74: “If Madonna replaced Simon Cowell on American idol I would so watch that show!
sybilT173: “It will be less interesting, that’s for sure. Simon is infuriating sometimes, but the most articulate and honest of the bunch.”
egomol: “I hope American Idol execs are able to find someone as snarky. It won’t be the same.”
mcrao05: “People watch that show for Simon. Contestants care more about his opinion than anyone else…it’s done. Sorry.”
erineeagerton: “Idol went downhill when Kara joined. It took a nosedive when Paula left. Now Simon’s leaving-American Idol has officially jumped the shark.”
docpants: “I’m more concerned that Simon might leave Alvin and the Chipmunks than Simon leaving American Idol.”
