200 million people watch it making it the biggest tv-show in the world after the Olympics and similar such as the football world cup.

I hope my local Euro channel airs it this year. Last year I got ticked off because I waited the whole time for them to show it, and they showed it Live in prior years, but when the scheduled hour came for it to show, they didn't air it. So it really annoyed me.

I think some BBC type channel showed it, but that's not the version I wanted to watch.

It usually always tends to coincide around Mother's Day.

I'll never get the people getting hyped for Eurovision. I can get behind being patriotic and supporting your country, but the vast majority of songs has either been weird or just plain awful.

These were actual winners and finalists.

The madness combined with patriotism is what I love about the contest haha.

I merely wish to hear good music. The stageshow is occasionally entertaining, but ultimately trivial.

Sigs are rather pointless, except if it's to showcase animation and images.
