Tonight’s show starts off pretty good…the little arrangement with the contestants (I refuse to call them all American Idols…much like the Highlander…there can be only one) was pretty good.  Andrew Lloyd Webber, while being a bit of a spaz, was pretty genuine in his critique of the contestants and fairly entertaining in his own right. I had to tell Christy who Leona Lewis was, and I myself aren’t that familiar with her music.  Her song was pretty good.  And the haphazard way they did the results tonight was not my favorite. ...

Let me first apologize for the lateness of this post…we didn’t get a chance to watch Idol last night until a bit later in the night, and we were done watching it at 10pm, so I am writing this after having a night’s sleep to think on the performances.  Well, I can’t say I actually did that…but anyway…the top 6 were singing showtunes from the great Broadway composer Andrew Lloyd Webber, and I was a bit apprehensive at first.  Let’s get right into the review.

I literally just got finished watching the results of this week’s American Idol show, and so here are my thoughts… WOOHOO!!!!!! In case you missed it, our old friend Kristy Lee Cook has been booted off the show…but we’ll get to what that means in a minute. First off…the show itself was a bit odd.

That kid has not one ounce of...

Well now, what do we have here? It’s another week on American Idol, TV’s #1 show, and the artist that just surpassed Elvis Presley with more career #1 hits is this week’s guest mentor. It’s none other than Mimi herself…Mariah Carey! I have to say…I was excited for this week to get here because Mariah Carey is one of my favorite female vocalists. I can remember listening to her first album a lot when I was in college. Anyway, this week the contestants had to choose a Mariah Carey song to perform on Idol, and choose...

If it hadn’t been nearly 10:30pm last night when we finished watching the results show last night, I would’ve come down here to the office to do my reaction post because I was surprised to say the least. I have to hand it to American Idol…as we were going through the results last night, Christy reminded me that last year during “Idol Gives Back” Week, they didn’t send anybody home in the spirit of ‘giving’…or something like that.  What they did, if you’ll remember, is carry the vote totals over...
