Today marks the four year anniversary of "American Idol in 60 Seconds." Deep breath.
To celebrate, we've re-posted the first "Idol in 60 Seconds" I ever produced. (In 2008, most of my early recaps were taken down thanks to a change in our video encoding process.) It's funny to think that only a few hundred people saw this four years ago when it premiered.
As you can see, not much has changed in the snark-a-second formula. Hell, I'm still sitting at the same cluttered desk. (Seriously, MTV? Will you ever give me an actual office?)
The rest is history, as they say. By my count, I've done 101 more "60 Second" entries since, summarizing everything from :Project Runway" to "Trl," from Al Gore's "Live Earth" concerts to actual elections, from Paula Abdul's gonzo Bravo reality show to Kelly Clarkson's "My December" drama.
The recap segment has been praised by "Idol" winners, Bravo...
