American Idol

most tv sucks these days, but there are some shining examples of good writing, acting, camera work, etc... we call those Deadwood and Arrested Development. Family Guy sucks ass, though...

Moderators: Zero, John Madden, Bob Ross, General Zod, Richard Simmons, Batman

There was an article in the news a few months about Simon's paycheck. It's immense. If you're familiar with Chris Rock, we're talking "wealthy," not just "rich."

Worst of all, they'd been promising Bono would perform for weeks now, and he didn't.

I actually thought about calling and saying, "I was going to donate $500, but then you aired that mockery duet with Celine Dion and Elvis. The man is dead. No need to piss on his grave."

Dude, tonight proves once again that the American public is too fucking stupid to be allowed to vote on anything more than the next flavor of Pringles.

Fucking Blake. I fucking hate him and his goddamned stupid gimmicky beatboxing. There are very few people who I'll publicly say I'd like to stick my foot down their throat, but he's definitely one of them. I'm not even going to throw out a childish gay joke, because that would be degrading to homosexuals everywhere.

I bet he gives bad blowjobs because he tries to beatbox and spits all over the guys he's blowing, and they have to pimp-slap him, and the continuous pimp-slapping makes him dumber and dumber.

Word. I am still amazed that this douche bag got the yellow paper in the first place. This proves that the majority of the voters are 12 year old girls. Which makes me wonder.....Why would anyone aspire to be a pop singer with a 10-14 year old female fan-base? Get a guitar and start a rock band. Slutty drunk groupies are what any straight guy would be after.

Up to this point, I've managed to avoid viewing American Idol. (well, except for that clip of some dork singing "Eye of the tiger" that someone emailed to me a long time ago). The other night, I went to bed early, but my wife was in the bedroom watching this show.

Anyway, I was fairly disgusted that they had all of the contestants singing songs from the Beatles Sgt. Pepper's album. How can you people watch this crap?

Now that the two most obvious plants are gone, I might watch this season again.

Wait, there's only three or four people left. Why bother?

Paula Abdul sucks, such a mental case that needs to stop drinking and popping pills. Did anyone see her critique Castro this week for two songs, when he only sang one? What a fucktard. If you didn't catch it live, which was hilarious and about the only portion of the show I watched (mustuve been fate) then I'm sure you saw it all over the internet the next day, and the day after, etc. Then she tries to cover her tracks and ends up looking like a bigger dumb ass. Awww man... I'm so done with this show; with the shitty contestants and the awful judges (with exception to Simon of course) this show has become unbearable to watch. Also, who needs to have a fucking hour long show to kick off one contestant? They could do that shit in 3 minutes. I'm out!
"Once there were brook trout in the streams in the mountains. You could see them standing in the amber current where the white edges of their fins wimpled softly in the flow. They smelled of moss in your hand. Polished and muscular and torsional. On their backs were vermiculate patterns that were maps of the world in its becoming. Maps and mazes. Of a thing which could not be put back. Not be made right again. In the deep glens where they lived all things were older than man and they hummed of mystery."

I still watch it, but I'm not too invested (never really have been), it's just something to fill the time. I stopped watching the results show this year though since it's just a huge fucking waste of time.
Shit. I can't think of a good signature.

Looks like Jonny Lang's kid sister is one of the contestants this year. I might have to actually watch again. Jonny Lang kicks ass and a half. Well, he did until he became "born again" and started doing crappy Christian r&b and turned his back on the blues.

I haven't watched much this year unless I've been at home when it's on (usually not). It's kind of played out at this point, I think.

Pop Idol as we call it here gets the same dregs. the same talentless hicks with a sob story to weep like a little girl about and get the sympathy vote. Simon backing the most talentless claiming they'll revolutionise the pop industry a guy who fawns over all the guys and we did have sharon osbourne but now we have danni minogue or some tart from a girl band i've never heard of but apparently were once chart toppers.

I much prefer the freakshow that is 'America's got talent' we have a UK version of that too but the acts we get are really dull. your american acts are just hilarious. weird and bizarre. mind you, you have a much larger number of citizens who want to humilliate themselves on TV.

this phone voting contest concept is really sinking low when we have shows over here to find stars for a West End show like Oliver or the sound of music. or the ones searching for britains next top airhead model. maybe politics should be run this way. phone vote for your congressman or president.
I have never read any of your posts, but from what I can learn I should say that for people who like the kind of posts you deliver, they are just the kind of posts such people like.

The only good thing I've heard about the new season of Idol was the "bikini girl".

I don't watch the show but I read about it. Apparently some girl went on the show in a bikini. Just do a search for bikini girl idol.
