American Idol

I thought we had a thread going on this already, but nothing came up in my search, soooooooo I'll start a new one.

For those of you who follow this show, look who got a recording contract:

Four words: flash in the pan.

Honestly, I would be surprised if William Hung were still popular one year from now.....

Re: American Idol

OK, now I'm cheesed off - they are pre-empting tonight's Idol for some Shrub Press Conference. If I wanna know what the Shrub says, I'll read it later (for that matter if I cared about what Shrub had to say I would have voted for him in 2000). I hate when the little time I get to watch television and relax every other day or so is pre-empted by talking news heads or politico-babble. Let me relax already! I'll catch a paper tomorrow and catch up on current events my own dang self. Grumble.

Re: American Idol

We don't get to see him evade questions from the press often, so I don't mind that it's preempting my favorite show "24."

"This is a historic opportunity to change the [subject]"

Catch this prime time press conference. It may be his last.

Re: American Idol

I had a hard time watching. I get so easily distracted by his darting tongue. He looks like a lizard the way he always licks that bottom lip. And we need to send him and the Donald for a haircut. He looks bad.
Oh well. 24 will be on Sunday. I'll be watching, too.

Re: American Idol

JPL is gone. Not that he was the worst, but truth be told I don't much care when people get axed as long as they do. My vote for next week? I'm betting that either John Stevens or Diana DeGarmo gets the royal boot...

Re: American Idol

I SUCK! I'M SO SORRY!

Really. Though, that shouldn't come as a shock in the overall scheme of things. Once you see the performances, you might be a bit shocked though...

Re: American Idol

Dont' worry about it! I should have thought to unsub from the thread when I missed it. I still haven't seen the performances.. I need to see HOW ON EARTH Jon Stevens made it through another week, aside from my mother feeling sorry for him and voting multiple times.
