"The Idol": A Contender for the Worst Show of All Time

TL;DR Summary
The Idol, a TV series starring Lily-Rose Depp and The Weeknd, has been labeled the worst show of the year by critics. The finale received scathing reviews, with Ed Power of The Telegraph calling it a "potential turkey for the ages." The series has been criticized for its sexist overtones, risqué nature, and explicit scenes, being compared to the ill-fated erotic drama Showgirls. The show's execution did not match its intentions, resulting in a boring and confusing storyline with loose ends. Despite only airing five episodes, critics have already had enough, and the future of The Idol remains uncertain.
