Expansion To Other Shows
Because of the success of their American Idol campaign, Vote for the Worst has expanded its site to sometimes include other shows. The site helped support Casey Leblanc's 6 week run during Canadian Idol 3, Jaydee Bixby's unprecedented 9 week "worst" run from the final 10 to the final 2 during Canadian Idol 5, and the infamous Bristol Palin on Dancing with the Stars.
Vote for the Worst's mixed bag extends to other shows. The site has had some success with a group like Light of Doom during The Next Great American Band, but was unable to help others such as Boy Shakira during America's Got Talent.
Not all of the shows mentioned on VFTW are in a bad way. The site is a big fan of America's Best Dance Crew and supported Fanny Pak in season 2. There was also an unofficial group that supported Dynamic Edition in season 3. There was also an unofficial group that supported Poreotix during season 5. Currently they are supporting ICONic Boyz in the finale of season 6.
As of April 2, 2012, VFTW officially began including The Voice on their main page, along with American Idol. The Voice was given its own forum thread and the supported contestants were also given a place on the site's main banner, making it the only show that has received these honors since American Idol and the site's conception.

Famous quotes containing the words expansion and/or shows:
“We are caught up Mr. Perry on a great wave whether we will or no, a great wave of expansion and progress. All these mechanical inventions—telephones, electricity, steel bridges, horseless vehicles—they are all leading somewhere. It’s up to us to be on the inside in the forefront of progress.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world, and that his heart is no island cut off from others lands, but a continent that joins to them.”
—Francis Bacon (1561–1626)
