I guess rockstar gave exposure to the other contestants that would hve been hard to get as quickly otherwise but I just think they could have done more to help them after the show Yes, they did get plenty of exposure on the show, but I don't think the show had much of a budget to help them afterwards, compared to AI. I would guess that AI probably has 10 times the amount of viewers that RS did (if not more), so they have lots of extra $$ to work with from ad revenues. I have had some favorites on AI, but still prefer Rock Star if I had to choose between the two shows. I think it's because I prefer the "band" aspect and the music they feature on RS. If they do come back, I hope they are able to secure the same House Band again! Bringing the link over to this page... November 14, 2008 6:00 PM Adalian Column: No New Reality Ideas?

AI had a a lot more viewers maybe also because not all people are fond of rock music. Unlike in AI, they would sing a variety of songs. I for one, didn't watch the series because of that. I'm sorry but who won in rockstar supernova? I don't recall it being shown here.

I'm sorry but who won in rockstar supernova? I don't recall it being shown here. Lukas Rossi (from Canada) won. They put out a CD and toured for a year or so. Now, Lukas is performing and touring with his new band, called Stars Down.

Hey, Eyecatcher, if you didn't watch Rockstar, how did you know of MiG? I've forgotten if you've mentioned that!

I like Cheryl's idea if the Zep idea doesn't pan out...just look for a solo rockstar with the judges she mentioned and the House Band...any excuse to bring back the House Band, lol! I did vote, couldn't resist! I'll try to remember to get back and drop a comment.

DBD,
I'll be sure to stop by and vote and leave a comment. Just thinking about the House Band playing Led Zeppling tunes makes my heart flutter.
Although I must admit...IMO, Magni would have been a great candidate for this round!! ;D

Aww, Riza... You know you'd wanna watch if they do come back for a 3rd season. After all, that's the show that brought all of us together in the first place! Nancy, I wondered if you saw my post from yesterday, because I remember you mentioning before that you were a fan of Led Zeppelin. Can you imagine Jimmy Page sitting in one of those throne-like chairs, critiquing rockers on primetime TV? That would be something to see! I wonder if they would even consider the show if it were offered to them, though. #IDunno# I really hope they bring back the show, whether it is for Led Zeppelin, another band, or just individuals aspiring to become a rock star.

As long as Tommy doesn't have anything to do with it. He just totally ruined it for me, what with his "it's all about me" self.

Hi dreambabydream, Welcome to Team MiG, and thanks to you, Joyce and Nancy for the info on Rock Star! I thought it was a great show and will post a comment soon. It would be cool to see another Rockstar show. I'm also going to post that one thing that would be awesome is for CBS to give a lot more publicity to their previous rockers and weaving that into a new show. Including what they're doing now, how to hear their music, and guest performances of their original music. IMO they missed a huge opportunity in Supernova by not promoting the rockers that so many people were crazy about from the previous year. Thanks again for keeping us in the loop, dreambabydream! Stop by again when you get a chance. Kay
