I so agree with you! I kept asking myself.... do these people really NOT know they can't sing??? It is not something I will go out of my way to watch every week. Boring for sure! Same old, same old Simon and Paula. And that one guy who exposed himself!!! WHAT??? Why wasn't he hauled off the stage immediately? Paula actually got (throw up) sick!
I agree, it is mostly gimick. Didn't seem all that genuine to me at all.
