Next week at 9pm, after the third round of winners are revealed, there is another hour of AI.

Here's the description of the episode:
Funny, weak and embarrassing auditions, with new footage, classic moments and comments from judges Paula Abdul, Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson.

Hopefully after the backlash from Joe Milionaire the other night, they wouldn't do such another lame show. But then again, this was put together before Joe aired so is this even going to be worth taping?

This episode is airing opposite the 2nd hour of the finale of Bachorlette. Also for anyone who watched Birds of Prey, they will be airing a 2hr series finale on WB during that time too.

I don't think FOX is trying to fool us. This will just be what is advertised - a highlight show of new and favorite old bad auditions. Most viewers love those, and the producers should have plenty that they haven't aired yet. Kinda like DVD bonus footage.

FOX is only putting this on as counterprogramming to take some of the viewers away from the Bachelorette finale on ABC. And they should be wildly successful.

I'll be taping the two hours of AI and watching the Bachelorette... especially after last night's show with the men telling "all"...
