They are really obvious, especially during the judging segments of the show.  Why do they use them, why do they not take the time to blend them in better, and what are they covering up?

yeah i noticed that too. espically in the episode with niki hilton, i think heidi might have pronounced niki's line wrong, cause you can hear when she says "chic" it was a voiceover, and nikis face looked a little like 'what did you just say?' so they must have gone back in and fixed it.

Hi bigslow,\nI think it's just another way to confuse someone. Good Luck: Blueladybug

Reading facial and body language cues are an essential tool used by law enforcement and judges all the time to determine truthfulness-It is unfortunate that the case was dismissed but I do understand why the judge did it.\nHe was not asking for her to parade around in her underwear just to show her face. Men have to remove their hats, witnesses are not allowed to wear sunglasses without cause while on the stand.\nI think the judge was right.

I agree with most people here. I watched the show too and was shocked that a woman stripping got through to the next round! That was not talent. There were other people on there that had more talent but didn't get through to the next round. Then comes a women and takes almost all her clothes off and she gets to stay! What the heck?! (No one even stopped her when they realized what she was doing!) I think it's stupid that they let her on the stage in the first place -- hello, there are kids watching this too. Do they really want kids to be influenced by crude behavior? Do they want young girls to be motivated to become strippers someday, believing that it's a great talent? Stupid, stupid judges who only think about themselves (except for Brandy).

I'm pretty positive that it's just for the drama of television.\n\nA real crime scene investigator will definitely take all the light they can get.  They might check the light switch for fingerprints before they use it, but trust me, they're gonna turn the lights on!

When the producers put together the re-cap at the end with the phone numbers, they use the footage from the dress rehearsal NOT their live performance.  The reason being that they don't have enought time to put everyone's live performance in.  The last person's performance [in this case, Elliot] wouldn't have gotten into it in time.  So to make it fair, they use all of their dress rehearsal performances instead.  Sometimes it is obvious that they are different performances.  It happened when Melissa performed and she forgot her lyrics in her live performance and then in the re-cap she "suddenly" remembered them...LOL

It's because of the minor imperfections in the placement of the mirrors. Also, because the effect can't be seen without seeing it at an angle, it causes a curve based on your viewpoint.

Yes, it's because they're stupid and incredibly bored.  But, no - it's not because the Caps Lock is on.  That would make their text LOOK LIKE THIS.  Not lIkE tHiS.  It's a deliberate thing, not an accident

Maybe it's their soap operas.  Have you ever watched one?  I admit I don't understand a word of them, but they sure LOOK more dramatic!  And my father-in-law who does watch (and understand) tells me they're a lot more exciting.\n\nConsidering how much TV we watch, and how large a part the media plays in shaping our feelings and self-image, this could very well be more true than you might think.\n\nBut mostly I'm just talking out of my ass and spending my 2 cents.

You're spot on mate, I've not heard anyone in the UK take our version seriously though. I take it with a pinch of salt, some are truly talented, others not so, but they have a dream so who am I to judge?!\n\nOh yeah, and Simon Cowell is a bit of a fool, he can be honest in a more civilised fashion! (gives us Brits a bad name does Simon!)

I love that the people in their TV shows look like real people. They have physical flaws, they don't look airbrushed. They look normal. That's sooo cool!\n\nIn America, we expect everyone to look like a movie star at all times, instead of expecting our movie stars to look like us.

They are skinny and tall to compensate for designers.  The items they wear are made in a similar size..and it makes it easier for them during runway shows to change in and out of outfits quickly.  That is why the models have to be around the same size. \nDon't forget that there are pluz size models as well as all other types and body shapes....and just like the skinny ones, the larger different model sizes have to match...you can't tailor a dress in five minutes you know!

Hidden by using the same color is only from what the USER sees.\n\nThe search engine compares the color CODE of the text to the color code of the background. If they detect that is is the same, they know you are only trying to override their default rating by using the words more than the user actually sees. Too small of letters also trigger rejection by the search engines.\n\nA way around this is to make the keywords in a different color code at the bottom of the web page...that is out of the viewing area of the user.

I know exactly what you are talking about!\nI can only explain it by the other people probably not being so good at their job, and at the same time would like to be/look better than you. Having this ambition, they try anything, look for intrigues, make up lies just in order to by contrast to you, look good themselves. Try not to look so good in front of them, try to make your supervisor see without these colleagues knowing about it, try to compliment them, try to make them look good, they will feel better

Yeah, a lot of it is fake. Like on Survivor when they're doing that confession thing and they're all wearing makeup and their hair is all neat.

they keep in at least one act that are talentless right up to almost the end in the belief that it will throw the public off the scent of the whole thing being a complete fix.\nif the act that the producers prefer happen not to win then they are signed up anyhow. makes you wonder why they bother with months of programs if they know from day 1 who they are willing to sign to contracts

I don't know if this is an acceptable answer, but here goes:  they just want something to complain about!  I mean, like most television shows today, the storylines that take place are completely fictional!  (With that said, I don't see anyone complaining about some of these oh-so-crappy shows that, for some odd reason, get some of the best ratings!) What is so hard to understand and/or accept?  Moreover, though the action may differ, wrestling is no different then, let's say, a soap opera!  Like you said, it's just entertainment!  Geez!
