...Americans watched the show like they watched the Super Bowl, 16 million and up every single week, and more than that talked about it the morning after. Rooting for Rudy, Kelly, Colleen, talking about Richard. But the reality of the thing, this "Star Wars" of "reality TV," had been decided months ago. The suspense was artificial. Nobody cared.
