The Brinch

The Brinch
Suggested nickname for Simon Cowell. [British + Grinch]

Responding to the news that Simon Cowell will not appear in the next season of American Idol, New York Magazine’s Vulture blog wrote:

The season-nine premiere was impossible to watch without judging every moment through the lens of whether the show can survive without him. We all know it’s the British Grinch (the Brinch? Has anyone coined that term yet? Is it too late for a trademark? We’ll be rich! Rich! Or not.) who puts Idol leagues ahead of other talent-based reality shows. If he’s not there next year to roll his eyes and bluntly tell people they have no future, will it still be fun to watch? Will it even be American Idol?
