Survivor time! Did you know that even before the show starts, I can fast forward my Tivo for 6 minutes and THEN the show actually begins? I think it’s the exact same on The Apprentice, which I also watch. This is another reason I kinda love Mark Burnett and would have his reality TV show [...]

There’s someone in the parking lot behind my apartment building shooting off fireworks. They’re as excited at me about the results of tonight’s American Idol apparently. I am not, however, at all happy that people won’t vote for Elliott. Yes, he looks like a hobbitt, but he’s so sweet and sincere and can sing like [...]

I didn’t actually blog American Idol live tonight. Why? Because I was getting chest x-rays (again) and apparently so was everyone else in the entire metro area.

During his always-lame intro to the show, Ryan Seacrest asks if anyone can match up to Freddie Mercury. That’s like asking if anyone is going to match up to [...]

Queen is the featured artist on AI tonight. This, of course, coincides with the tour they’re about to start, or maybe have already started.
I don’t know how accurate the rest of the information on this post is, but I figured I’d post it anyway. The contestants and their song choices are listed below. I’ve given [...]

Along with about 39 other TV shows that I Tivo every week, I also watch Survivor. I’ve only missed a couple of seasons, and that’s because either A) I didn’t have cable TV or B) I was working two jobs and hadn’t found the luxury of Tivo.
I love me some Survivor. This season, I thought, [...]

Want my quick American Idol recap?
I hate America. That’s it.
Mandisa and Elliott are two of my favorites. I didn’t vote for Mandisa on Tuesday, because I thought her song choice was terrible. But definitely not the worst of the night.
Simon was right on the mark every time he says that your song choice sticks with [...]

I hate country night. It’s nothing against country music. Well, maybe it is. I think it’s mainly due to the song choice on nights like these. The songs are boring and because the majority of the contestants don’t know the songs, it’s harder for them to actually make it “their own”.
Thankfully, there are only nine [...]

Ten left on American Idol, which means these are the ten that will tour once the show’s over. I’ve never actually been to one of the American Idol group concerts… so no chance of me hooking up with Kevin Covais when the tour stops in Minneapolis. I guess I can settle for Chris or Ace [...]

I had the World’s Longest American Idol Review almost completely written last night, but then, wouldn’t you know it, I lost it. You can read the shortened version in the extended entry.
Next week, I promise to save it more frequently. Or something.

I am really hoping what I just read isn’t true, but rumor has it that this week’s American Idol will feature the remaining 11 artists singing 50’s songs, with Barry Manilow guest judging. Does he guest judge every year?
Here’s the deal. I haven’t told you what I think about this year’s contestants yet, so I’m [...]
