yes, I know that American Idol was on last night, but I watch a different program.

The Ascent of Money on PBS (http://www.pbs.org/wnet/ascentofmoney/)

It was a fascinating program about higher finance. I especially loved the part about two mathematicans who wrote a formula/program to price options. They were so successful that they won the Nobel Price for economics. Of course two years later they were completely broke! :p

I missed that, was NOT watching Idol. Sounds like an interesting show....
