American Idol Is Kaput-Ski But Don’t Cry Because It’s Legacy Will Live On As Long As Kelly Clarkson Is Still Off Somewhere Doing Awesome Stuff!

I heard the news today, oh boy, about a lucky t.v. show that once made the grade but fifteen seasons later is now being set adrift on the seas of memory. Hopefully, they'll go all viking funeral on it  and set the thing on fire as it drifts into the ocean of forgotten television shows. That'll be sweet.

Yes, the show that gave unto the world Ryan "How Many Jobs You Got, Mon" Seacrest is going to the great beyond after this next season. Remember when the show started, and Seacrest had a partner named Dunkleman? But then, like twins in the womb, the fetus Seacrest devoured whole the rival host? Turns out the Dunkleman has been alive this whole time and managed to tweet about idol getting S-Canned:

 

I look amazing in this Target changing room mirror, I'm totally moving here

Uh, wait, the OTHER tweet:

I knew American Idol would never last without me #CANCELLED

*Sigh* Classic Dunkelman.
So, then, why is the show that gave us both Daughtry and Clay Aiken going knockers up? According to EW.com, CEO and guy who probably never heard of Gary "Not The Here In My Car Guy" Newman said in a press conference, "we spent a lot of time talking with producers about the future of American Idol and collectively we arrived at the conclusion that it was time to bring the show to an end. But we wanted to do it in a way that felt special and celebratory and treated the show the way it deserved to be treated.”
So how will we cope with this tragic loss of Seacrest and whoever wound up hosting the last season of this massive pile of showbiz goat apples? Well, fear not, fair reader, for as long Kelly Clarkson is out there doing very cool things like this, we shall never go a begging for the sweet nectar of Ameri...Ameri...uh, damn...what was the name of that show again, the one with the judges and the singers on it? Oh yeah, The Voice.
