Yes, it's tough to believe but true. Last night's episode of Idol had the highest ratings of a premiere EVER for Fox and the highest ratings in the show's history. An estimated 37.3 million people watched the cracky baby and zit boy. In comparison, 35.5 million people watched the premiere last year. Hopefully the extra 2 million viewers are all Worsters.

I am convinced that the really weird/bad people auditioning are strictly ringers.  I believe the producers found these actors to play freaks.  If you look closely at them when they leave the audition (and didn&;#39;t get the golden ticket), you will notice their friends waiting for them outside the door.  Then, listen to the rehearsed script that the rejects are speaking.  Their friend is mouthing the same scripted words the rejects are saying to Seacrest.  Almost as if they were rehearsing it with their friends during the hours of waiting.  Check it out.  I&;#39;m convinced that the producers have given them a script to read when they come out of the audition, just for show.  It&;#39;s bull...  In the immortal words of Elaine, "fake, fake, fake..."
