Released in 2001, Pop Idol is a telerrealidad series.

What it’s about. Pop Idol is a British television music competition which ran on ITV from 2001 to 2003. The aim of the show was to decide the best new young pop singer in the UK based on viewer voting and participation. Two series were broadcast - one in 2001-2002 and a second in 2003. Pop Idol was subsequently put on an indefinite hiatus after "Idol" judge Simon Cowell announced the launch of the The X Factor in the UK in April 2004. The show has become an international TV franchise since, spawning multiples of Idol series worldwide. In the mean time a legal dispute arose with the makers of Popstars, which eventually led to the word "Pop" being excluded from the titles of all the spin-offs, such as American Idol, Australian Idol, Indonesian Idol, New Zealand Idol, Latin American Idol and Idols.

Who’s in it. Pop Idol stars Anthony McPartlin as Self - Host, Declan Donnelly as Self - Host, Simon Cowell as Self - Judge and Pete Waterman as Self - Judge, among others.

How it landed. With an audience score of 2.5/10, Pop Idol has proved divisive with audiences.
