the only one of those three that I've heard of is American Idol, so I'll vote for that.
Are the other two British shows?

Pop idol is international or something... I think?
And X-Factor is British (and pwn)
And Eurovision is... er.... European :P

I thought Pop Idol was just in the UK?

I think American Idol is the only one distributed internationally, although I could be wrong.

Seeing as I've only heard of "American Idol," I shall have to vote for that.

Boo for us Americans not getting European shows :(

Pop Idol's the UK version.

I don't watch any of the others. I like Australian Idol. Oh, the amounts of snark that can be drawn out of one show...

I was basically mortified by how Latvia's act sang in Italian for some unknown reason.
And why the name had "Napoleon" in it is still a mystery to me as well. xD

I had forgotten them.
Then again, I only watch it for the shockingly insane costumes and Terry Wogan getting steadily drunker through the night.

Yeah, that was really strange. I hope this year there'll be better acts. Also, last year every single country in Europe didn't perform, like they usually did, is there now auditions to get through or something? o_O

And @ Alex, I added Australian Idol to the list. :)
