what about the 'talent' type shows?

I've watched American Idol every season.  I do enjoy it but haven't watched much of the other shows lie "the voice", "the X factor", "America's got Talent", etc.  Anyone watch those shows and if so, what's your opinion on them?

Personally, I think they're a total waste of time and along with all the stupid reality shows, seem to be taking over every single network. Is this REALLY the best network television can come up with? They should have their own network...........the "ISBIRTWTC........." (I'm so bored I've resorted to watching this crap)

I watched Americas next top model for a few seasons early on.  Enjoyed it a lot up until the make over show (my favorite) and then the women would just get caddy and fight.  But I did love the makeover day---  wow, one season, this poor girl had her teeth worked on for 10 hours and then had to model!  Remember that early season --  maybe the first with the girl that slept with someone and told her boyfriend on camera?

Americas Next Top Model is the only "talent type" show I watch (if you call modeling a talent) I do like Iron chef and those type of cooking challenges..I used to watch American Idol but it got old very fast IMO...I heard the voice is really good but I never got into it...
