American Idol: The Search For A Superstar - The Newest In Reality

[Arthur Dent]

As for this Idol show, is this the one where the guy tells the people really mean/truthful shit about their performances? If so, the show might actually be funny.

Yes.

And the winner from the first season in the UK was named Will Young and he is now a "famous" singer with a real career in the UK. His stuff is played in the nightclubs and on the radio. Manufactured industry bullshit.
