David Cook won this year’s American Idol. I was disappointed the night of the announcement, but he’s a terrific performer and very deserving of the win. I loved how gracious he was in sharing the stage. Should be great to hear his album.

Plus I’m sure David Archuleta will have a fine career as well.

Having said that, I’m not sure I’ll watch the show next year. I got hooked because of the local boy, but watching is a bit of a roller coaster. You never know who will get the axe. I guess that’s why people watch it, but I don’t want to become invested like that week after week.

Although if another local singer is in the running, I might tune in again.
