Live-Blogging the American Idol Season Six Finale

10:07 – The Jay, OUT! Bloop-Bloop!
10:06 – Congratulations to Jordin, she’s a great choice for an American Idol, will be a great representative for the show and a (moderately) successful solo singer. Best of luck to Blake, who entertained me so well for five months; I can’t wait for the shaky, beatbox-heavy debut [...]

Grading the American Idol Top 2 On The Tivo Multi-Bloop Scale

First things first…
Melinda…
The writing was on the wall, problem is, nobody was paying any attention to that wall.
You were far and away the best singer of the season. Your journey took you the farthest, and was the most inspirational. Your consistency and goodwill set a gold standard that few contestants will [...]

Grading the American Idol Top 3 On The Tivo Multi-Bloop Scale

Thanks to two different power outages at The 209 my TiVo tripped up on last night’s Idol taping. So instead of the full hour I got a ten minute chunk in the middle, and the last fifteen minutes. But it was enough to confirm what I was feeling about this group of three. [...]

Grading the American Idol Top 4 On The Tivo Multi-Bloop Scale

The herd has been thinned, the discarded chum chucked to the sharks, and all that is left is the top sirloin. By all accounts, the Top 4 is the best Top 4 in American Idol history. Each performer is talented, professional and for the most part, marketable. There isn’t a Sanjaya Malakar, [...]

Grading the American Idol Top 6 (Again) On The Tivo Multi-Bloop Scale

We’re gonna call a mulligan on last week’s axe predictions since no one got the boot and the whole week was a sham anyway. I’ve already spoken at length about how I feel on the topic of Idol Gives Back, so I won’t rehash my thoughts now. I’ll simply point you to this [...]

Grading the American Idol Top 6 On The Tivo Multi-Bloop Scale

Sometimes it’s OK to be wrong. Those times are when you thought someone didn’t like you and it turns out they did. Or when you assumed a movie would be terrible and you actually ended up enjoying it. Or when you don’t think you’ll find the right type of internet porn for [...]

Grading the American Idol Top 7 On The Tivo Multi-Bloop Scale

Well I guess I know nothing. Yes, Haley was the least talented of all the contestants, but I never thought she’d be kicked off on Latin week. I guess it just goes to show that America would rather watch creepy bald aliens dreary there way through B-list Santana joints than ogle a pretty [...]

Grading the American Idol Top 8 On The Tivo Multi-Bloop Scale

Another lackluster week in Idol Land. I can’t blame the mentor this week, as I found Jennifer Lopez disarmingly endearing (anyone who cracks up at their own jokes because it amuses them so much is OK in my book; I mean, I know she’s really a beyotch, but her on-camera persona is very cool. [...]

Grading the American Idol Top 9 On The Tivo Multi-Bloop Scale

How do you spell credibility? “T-H-E-J-A-Y”. Not only did I nail the ouster last week (smell you later, FrankenSligh), but I also pegged the correct bottom three. I am the unofficial Idol Kreskin. The Mandalay Bay should hire to me to work their sportsbook and take crazy Idol bets like “will [...]

Grading the American Idol Top 10 On The Tivo Multi-Bloop Scale

American Idol gave me exactly what I deserved. I railed against them for bringing in mentors that today’s viewers (and Idols) could not relate to. So what do the Idol producers do? They give me Gwen Stefani Week, and not surprisingly (cause my karma is for “S”; I could be Earl’s stand-in, [...]
