Edit on Idol: American Idol Voters Yank Hernandez

Posted on: Thursday, March 13th, 2008 in: American Idol, FOX, Reality T.V., television

I love Katherine McPhee. Her self-titled debut is a nice pop album. Not trend setting or awesome, no killer single, but it’s a good listen. Good to see her.
Surprise, surprise, surprise! Syesha - and not Ramiele - gave Chikezie a break tonight. We all know that he was right behind her. David Hernandez and […]

Edit on Idol: American Idol Top 12

Posted on: Wednesday, March 12th, 2008 in: American Idol, FOX, Reality T.V., television

Syesha Mercado - I’m hereby withdrawing my vote for Syesha as the one to win it all. Do I think she’s the best female vocalist? Yes. Is she in the top three overall? Probably. But I’ve been saying this every week: she’s going to finesse herself out of this competition. I don’t see her coming […]

Edit on Idol: American Idol Trims to 12

Posted on: Friday, March 7th, 2008 in: American Idol, FOX, Reality T.V., television

We’re down to twelve. I can’t help but think that Cardin McKinney would be in this group and doing well. I’ll tell you this right now, I’m going to be watching out for this one to breakthrough on her own some time in the future.
She’s the total package: She not only looks good - […]

Edit on Idol: American Idol Top 8 Women

Posted on: Thursday, March 6th, 2008 in: American Idol, FOX, Reality T.V., television

Asia’h Epperson - What a horrible outfit, very unflattering. The second thing to come to mind is, karaoke. I said a couple of weeks ago that she’s fearless, but that may be her downfall, ’cause she keeps picking songs that are a bit bigger than her.

Edit on Idol: American Idol Top 8 Men

Posted on: Wednesday, March 5th, 2008 in: American Idol, FOX, Reality T.V., television

Luke Menard - Jesus, if this doesn’t send Luke home, nothing will. I thought he butchered Queen last week, and this week he sounded like a girl, and, he, um uh, just forget it … InSinkErator Inductee #1.

Edit on Idol: American Idol says, “CYA”! to a•leks•zan•DRAY•uh!

Posted on: Saturday, March 1st, 2008 in: American Idol, FOX, Reality T.V., television

Like I said, DRAYuh was on borrowed time. She should’ve gotten kicked square in the rear last week (and left a better singer, Amy Davis, in the competition). She flat out ruined two songs, two weeks in a row. That OoooOoooWooo (”please don’t go”) hurt my ears. 
Alaina … there’s really nothing left to say. 
I questioned […]

Edit on Idol: Top 10 Women

Posted on: Thursday, February 28th, 2008 in: American Idol, FOX, Reality T.V., television

Carly Smithson - Not too “crazy” about the song choice, but she didn’t do anything to get knocked out this week. She’s good, but the problem is, she hasn’t hit her stride yet and I don’t know how many more chances she’s going to have to live up to her stellar potential. She’s much, much […]

Edit on Idol: Top 10 Men

Posted on: Thursday, February 28th, 2008 in: American Idol, FOX, Reality T.V., television

This may have been one of the most underachieving AI that I’ve seen in a long time.
Michael Johns - Whoa! Great song, less than mild performance. It seemed liked he was shouting during the chorus. If he keeps picking them like this, he’s gone before April. I like this guy but … I don’t care […]

American Idol: Gone Amy Gone

Posted on: Friday, February 22nd, 2008 in: American Idol, Amy Davis, FOX, Reality T.V., television

No suprises tonight.
First Cardin McKinney (who sat right next to Joanne Borgella as she found out she wasn’t going to make the top 24), and now Amy Davis gets booted. So much for my top-ranked eye-dol candy.  

Edit on Idol: Top 12 Women

Posted on: Thursday, February 21st, 2008 in: American Idol, FOX, Reality T.V., television

Kristy Lee Cook - An all right performance … nothing that stood out. She seemed a bit uncomfortable. She’ll be gone before the end of March.
Joanne Borgella - People who don’t watch AI always sneer as they say that’s it’s nothing but a karaoke show. Well, in this case I agree.
Simon: “I don’t accept […]
