When a monstrously funded, intelligently engineered, brilliantly conceived production chooses to be so lazy as to make their Theme of the Week “Whatever is on your iPod Shuffle”, I have no choice but to answer their laziness with some of my own. Let’s make this tripe quick.
Randy is useless and ugly and has the [...]

Grading the American Idol Season Eight Top 10 on the TiVo Multi-Bloop Scale
You know what’s the best? An American Idol season where the producers pick the Themes without paying attention to the musical styles of the contestants. We had Country Night last week and no one in the Top 11 is a country artist. This week we had Motown Night and barely 3 of [...]
Grading the American Idol Season Eight Top 11 on the TiVo Multi-Bloop Scale
American Idol has a huge Country fanbase. We know this because contestants like Kristy Lee Cook routinely make it to the Top 7. We know this because Carrie Underwood is the highest selling Country Artist in music today. We know this because Bucky Covington exists on this Earth. And while those [...]
Grading the American Idol Season Eight Top 13 on the TiVo Multi-Bloop Scale
Oh, TiVo Multi-Bloop, how I missed you so! On those long audition rounds when I yearned for your sweet mercy. In Hollywood Week whilst enduring the aural torture that was Bikini Girl. During the Top 36 when I kept fighting the urge to grab you and Triple Bloop the bejeesus out of [...]
American Idol Season Eight Wild Card Predictions
UPDATE: Nailed all of my predictions, and would have picked Matt, too, had I known they were going to a Top 13. That makes me 10 for 12 (or 13), with 4 of my 6 Early Favorites still in the race. I am an American Idol predicting machine! Check back next week [...]
12 Word Summaries of the American Idol Season Eight Group 3 – Top 12
I am bored of this Top 36 nonsense. Tonight especially, was worthless and utterly predictable. Lil Rounds has been pimped as the BBV (Big Black Voice) for the season, you KNEW Scott MacIntyre was getting a pass, and whomever else gets through is merely cannon fodder, so who gives a Seacrest? I [...]
12 Word Summaries of the American Idol Season Eight Group 2 – Top 12
I’m holding off on the TiVo Multi-Bloop Scale until the Top 12, when I can actually tell this bus full of kids apart. For now, we’re going with quick summaries.
A quick word about the judges… were they all drunk? Or just really tired (in general or of each other, doesn’t matter)? Way too [...]
12 Word Summaries of the American Idol Season Eight Group 1 – Top 12
I’m holding off on the TiVo Multi-Bloop Scale until the Top 12, when I can actually tell this bus full of kids apart. For now, we’re going with quick summaries. Why? Cause I need to spend the rest of my day figuring out the fuzzy logic that sends three non-gender-specific contestants from [...]
My American Idol Season Eight Early Favorites
How are we a full month into the season and literally nothing has happened except a heinous girl in a bikini, Ryan not-fiving a blind guy and the world-crushing awfulness that is Tatiana Del Toro? Seriously, has there been ONE good note of music sung in four weeks?
By this time last season David Archuleta [...]
Idol Gives BOOF!
Ever wanted to see what it looks like when a person goes on an audition and gets the part, in the room, in the middle of things, and knows it?
This is BOOF-tastic 20 year-old Casey Carlson:
A petite bruny stunner on the order of Rachel Bilson, likeable to beat the band, with a Southern song voice [...]
