AMERICAN IDOL Goes to Omaha…by Guest Blogger Aaron

I’m a selfish, selfish blogger, and as a result I couldn’t bring myself to recap last night’s AMERICAN IDOL. Sorry, but I’m so over the audition shows that I couldn’t fathom watching and then trying to find something witty so say about them. I’m so ready for the good singers. We saw a few last […]

Live Blogging AMERICAN IDOL – South Cackalacky

I’m home and watching, so I might as well LIVE blog tonight’s AMERICAN IDOL. I’m just a few minutes behind you all, but I’ll be caught up soon enough. I can’t say that my commentary is going to be all that exciting, but feel free to watch along with me and comment as we go. […]

AMERICAN IDOL Snooze Diego Auditions

Settling in on my couch with pen and paper in hand, ready to take notes on the most memorable auditions of the evening,I was ready for last night’s edition of AMERICAN IDOL. Fast forward one hour later and my page is nearly blank. A few notes about some guy who is a single father with […]

David Archuleta – AMERICAN IDOL with Idols Before Idol

This year’s AMERICAN IDOL is going to be packed with “undiscovered” talent – you know those who have had no record deals, agents, grammy nominations, TV roles…you know. Oh wait! That’s exactly the type of people taking over the Top 50 this year. Semi-pros (and some honest to god professionals) will be trying to dominate […]

AMERICAN IDOL Recap – “I Am Your Brother”

“I am your brother, your best friend forever…” What a strange journey it has been…and it’s only night number two of the AMERICAN IDOL auditions. The judges were down in good ‘ol Texas, and the crazies once again came out to play. There were some doozies last night, and I for one may never visit […]

AMERICAN IDOL – “I’m Going for Actressing” (Philly Auditions)

Believe it or not, we are only two episodes in on the 7th season of AMERICAN IDOL, and it’s a loooong way until the finale. The talent search is on and the freak flags are waving high. The ‘bush baby’ backlash has left us with a kinder, gentler Simon Cowell, Randy still hasn’t found a […]

AMERICAN IDOL is Back Tonight

Maybe I just haven’t been watching too much Fox, or perhaps it’s because I watch everything on my TiVo and fast forward through commercials, but it seems to me there hasn’t been much hoopla about tonight’s season premiere of AMERICAN IDOL. In light of the strike, I would have thought that Fox would be overwhelming […]

American Idol and SYTYCD on Tour Together?

Nigel Lythgoe, creator of both AMERICAN IDOL and SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE has hinted that the top talent from both shows may come together for a joint tour next year. Interesting. Is the far less watched show, SYTYCD, carrying the top rated AMERICAN IDOL on its back? Definitely not in the ratings, but […]

59th Annual Primetime Emmy Award Nominations

It’s about 5:30AM here on the West Coast and my bleary eyes are up only because it happens to be EMMY day!! Here are the nominations for the 59th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards.

Sparks Fly for AMERICAN IDOL Finale

We use the word “awesome” so much that it has lost some of its meaning. But tonight’s AMERICAN IDOL finale was truly an awesome television event. The eclectic mix of musical genres from different eras gave everyone in Idol’s vast and diverse audience something to smile about. From performances by past Idols, to today’s hottest […]

Make Your Case: Blake vs. Jordin

AMERICAN IDOL is down to the final two.  Just Blake Lewis and Jordin Sparks have survived.  So who is going to take this year’s crown? Will it be Blake and his beat boxxing ways or the powerhouse young Ms. Sparks.  Honestly, I think both are extremely talented in their own way and I will not […]
