Nigel Lythgoe's Getting Crankier
Ex-American Idol producer (man, it feels good to say that) Nigel Lythgoe ranted to the New York Post about Idol's new changes. Nigel, sounding bitter about probably being fired, said, “I don’t like fourth judges. I think once you’ve been told ‘You suck,’ you don’t need to be told another three times." Oh really, Nigel? Reality Blurred makes the awesome point that "his criticism makes little sense. It’s not okay to be told “you suck” four times, but three times is perfectly fine? And seriously, this is the man who produced a show that delights in torturing its contestants during elimination episodes for our alleged entertainment." Hilariously true. And then Nigel clarifies that he didn't mind a fourth judge as a guest, just not permanently. So apparently it's OK to be told you suck four times as long as one of the times is from a guest. It's so nice to see him gone. He clearly was one of the people fucking this show up beyond recognition.

For a second I almost agreed with his statement, then I read the rest of the post. And yeah - it's definitely flawed logic. Screw you Lythgoe.
The British Baby is just mad because he was thrown away like an old dirty rag (no pun intended). Maybe he now knows what the former contestants feel like now after being pre-chewed, used, then booted. Welcome to the club old fart!

So he thinks hiring three judges for 7 years was good.

They've had four judges numerous times on SYTYCD. I suppose he thinks his "as guests" comment covers that though. Still, the way they bring the last two semi-finalists out to tell them who stays and who goes on that program is like being in front of a firing squad!

Wait...Wasn't Angie Martinez originally a fourth judge for season 2? She ended up "quitting" and being edited out of the show.
So Nigel was okay with a fourth judge before...he's just pointing fingers.
I'd call him a douchebag, but douchebags have seen vagina.
...Uh, then why are there four judges on SYTYCD, Nigel? Just give it up. AI doesn't want your advice any longer - like it did any good for the show the last few years when you drove it into the ground.
Good riddance to bad, ugly, incompetent giant-toothed rubbish.
