Simon Says

So tonight was Simon Cowell's last night on American Idol. It was actually pretty sad. When most of the past idols joined together on stage to sing a farewell song to him, one realizes the profound impact he's had on popular culture over the past decade.

Sure, musically, there's been an impact. Some fantastic artists have been discovered and millions of records have been made. But beyond that, the impact he's had on television is truly astounding.

I've been a way bigger fan of the X Factor for several years now, and I can't wait to see its American incarnation.

Thanks, Mr. Cowell. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
