American Idol Touts Past Success, Slams The Voice?

Did American Idol just take a jab at The Voice?

In an ad that aired last night, the Fox series hypes this evening's two-hour episode by recounting its past success stories, which includes nine Grammy Awards, one Oscar and artists such as Carrie Underwood, Adam Lambert, Kelly Clarkson, Chris Daughtry, Scotty McCreery and Jennifer Hudson.

The Voice, of course, has only been on for one season, but finalists Javier Colon and Dia Frampton haven't left much of an impression on the music world.

Watch the promo now and decide: Cheap shot? Desperate shot? Or a perfectly fair salvo to fire off between two similar shows?
