I have nothing against Danny Gokey or Adam Lambert. They seem like swell guys, and for the first time in several Idol seasons, the Top 3 are all pretty talented performers.
But something hit me tonight: I’m a little bit over Adam Lambert. He’s got a killer “rock voice” so to speak, but the screeching is [...]

It’s Wednesday. Paula Abdul is performing on the Idol Stage. Hilarious. Pyrotecnics were involved.
Speaking of American Idol, a stage manager fell on the stage yesterday. She’s okay but needed some stitches.
Guess who’s a lot older than he looks? MTV Correspondent Kurt Loder. The original MTV News guy turned 64 yesterday. Shocking!
Kiefer Sutherland headbutted a [...]

I’m on an American Idol high right now. I won’t spoil it, but let’s just say history was made tonight, and I am thankful. This show keeps finding ways to keep me coming back. Some ways are easier on the eyes than others.
Let’s get to it!
Will Ferrell is going to hang out with Bear Grylls [...]
American Idol Judges To Get Veto Power?
Posted in In The News, tagged American Idol on March 11, 2009 | 1 Comment »
According to Reality Blurred, American Idol may finally take a dramatic shift for the better. Beginning this season, the judges may be given veto power. They may have one opportunity to overrule the audience vote to save a contestant from elimination.
Idol producer Ken Warwick spoke with Seacrest on his radio show to discuss a new [...]

Who had a good week? Let’s find out.
Celebrity Apprentice 2: CA2 was probably the funniest two hours of television I watched this week. It was unintentionally awesome. I love it when C-List celebrities (and a few heavy hitters) come together to make asses of themselves and pretend to apply business knowledge to absurd situations. Shot-out [...]

Do you realize how much good TV comes on Wednesdays? Wednesday is my new Thursday. Booya.
A bunch of analog stations switched over to digital yesterday ahead of the new deadline. So far the FCC is reporting very few issues. Sidenote: A kid I work with just submitted his application for a converter box. I asked [...]
It’s Hollywood Week: Night 4

Two hours of Idol later and we’ve finally got our Top 36. Here are my thoughts:
My favorite sort of nerdy guy, Alex Wagner-Trugman made it through after a sing-off. I don’t think he’ll make it very far but he’s not half bad. He might catch a few lucky breaks.
Cry-Baby Emotional vocalist Nathaniel Marshall also got [...]
It’s Hollywood Week: Night 2

The claws came out for the second night of Hollywood Week on American Idol. I’m pretty sure the producers of this show only do group night to create a little drama. Yes, the Idols perform in groups on tour and during the show, but none of those performances are ever very strong, so I don’t [...]

I woke up today super tired. All I could think about was,” Thank heavens it’s Hump Day Update Day.” I love rounding up this stuff.
Need to send an e-card to your girl crush/friend who loves popular cable news ladies? Try these Rachel Maddow e-cards out for size.

It’s Hollywood Week: Night 1
Posted in Episode Re-Cap, tagged American Idol, Ryan Seacrest on February 3, 2009 | 1 Comment »
My first LOL moment of the night came courtesy of Seacrest. “A test of courage, a test of stamina and strength.” Really Seacrest? It’s Hollywood Week. It’s challenging and overwhelming but it’s not exactly Basic Training.
So tonight we caught a glimpse of the 147 singers who made it through to Hollywood. Prior to taking the [...]
