I agree - I think they did something truly great. It was great fun, completely harmless, showcased France and its people, and pissed off a lot of people I don't care for in the process. And it gave a lot of genuine talents a moment in the spotlight, without ever getting dull or overly traditional.
I can't read the article beyond the headline, but that's already hilarious.
