First the finalist enter the stage. The big question is "Do they cry?".
Then we look at a short summary. When and how did they cry in the earlier shows?
Then their families have been recorded when they couldn't hold back their tears. The finalists are not only great innovators, they are surprisingly also the most loving husbands or wifes and the best parents. Isn't that amazing?
Oh, then the finalists are so moved so they start crying again.
Their little inventions are now taken on by some large company. Everybody fall into each others arms. Crying.
Now the jury is crying too. The camera is making a closeup of one the jurymembers using her handkerchief.
I guess the audience must be crying in front of their TVs now. ..
The funny thing is that these "American emotions", have the exported to Sweden. We have our national "Idol" where the families are filmed in the final, to make it more personal. So far I've not seen that they focus so much on tears and crying, though. But the love between the Idol winner and his fiancee was pretty exposed. Good TV is apparently to make people feel and preferable cry.
I'm wondering, if anyone has invented a separate channel with funerals only yet?
