I agree 100%. All of the folks you mentioned are fantastic to watch. My favorites are Jamar (sp) and his buddy, the widower who looks like a smaller Robert Downy Jr and the two big old boys (Oil Rig dude and giant bald dude with dark facial hair).

I’m glad mediocre Rocker Girl with pink hair and poor widdle Rose were sent home. Dreams = destroyed! Now, if only I could punch Von in that giant mouth and pull the pins out of Nathan’s face. Hate those two guys.

And boots013, settle down. Megan isn’t nearly as hot as the little brunnette from Austin who did the bikini pics online. I’ve noticed they haven’t shown her yet in Hwood but I did see her in the background yesterday of a group who made it. Excellent.

I totally dig her as well. I don’t think she’s the type of person America will vote as a winner. She’ll make it far though.

Fact.

I want to know what happened to my favorite from auditions, the ringer.

I read there was some controversy with her professional recording past so they may have reduced her time to let that cool down a bit. She was easy on the eyes as well.

One thing I always think about is how 140 odd people go to Hwood but we only see such a limited nbr between the auditions and the Hwood week. There are all kinds of people out there saying “Yeah, I was kicked out during group day” who are telling the truth but it seems like bullshit since we never see them. Of course, that is what every barista I meet seems to say so they’re all full of shit anyway.

When can we play my favorite game? - “Which Idol finalist has a hilarious and until now hidden criminal past” Top 36? Top 16? I love that game.

Thanks for the info, I think top 36 will have at least 2 people with hidden pasts.

So far my favorites are the ringer girl (as pictured above) and Casey Carlson (the chick you were talking about)

From the guy side of things, I like that dude who lost his wife (von?) and the roughneck guy. I can see a lot of potential there.

So not only did this chick already have a recording contract, Joanna Pacitti is personal friends with producers of Idol.

Can Tatiana get hit by a bus already?

Ok, got all caught up on my AI watching.

In my earlier comments I did forget a few of the folks mentioned here. Digging the widower guy, think he will go far. The roughneck wasn’t bad, either. And I liked the blonde that was in the group that imploded and sent home the black chick who stormed off.

And there were a few pretty hot chicks in the auditions that slipped my mind. Haven’t seen much from them yet, maybe we will soon. Still think Corkrey is the hottest, but that’s probably based the fact that she strongly resembles my ex and that spunky personality.

Tatiana is a complete annoyance. Mr. Dickson’s imaginary bus cannot get to her fast enough. Ugh.

It’s amazing how much more I enjoy this show when they focus on the talented people. There really are a great bunch of singers this year and I think any number of them will be able to do well on the show. I really think AI should do away with audition week and/or giving screen time to the William Hung’s of the world.

Which reminds me, that Nick/Norman guy. Why is he still around? I get that he has a good voice. But if he can’t perform as someone other than Norman, how can he expect to perform on the show? He has to be able to adapt to whatever theme the show throws at him.

Why only cut one room? Just seemed to be unnecessarily dragging things out, and last night’s show dragged on enough as it was.

Any excuse to torment Tatiana a little bit more. I want to see her gently tip over into a beautiful, perfect madness. Maybe they’ll give her a dead puppy, or tell her that there are hidden cameras everywhere which can record her thoughts.

Didn’t Simon hate Sanjaya and say he’d quit if he won? Then why did this guy make it so far. I know it’s for the ratings but this one note joke has wasted 20 minutes of airtime with his joke. This guy is just taking a spot for some who wants to be there. Who knows if they missed out on someone good because of jitters.

And I love how the Idol ringer can forget the words and still make it because she had a good audition before. And the other hot chick made it as well.

Boring so far.

The guy started over and stopped halfway through his second try made it through as well.

So there’s a Top 36 this year? Cripes. This thing will be forever just getting to the “real” show.

That’s been the growing trend for a while now. Gotta fill those time slots!

How does someone who is making fun of the AI make the top 36? And the giggling bitch makes it too. Fucking shameless for the ratings.

How are they doing the top 12? It can’t be 6boys/6girls if they are doing 3 a week and mixed company. Have a feeling there will be more men than women unless they stack the Wild Card with almost all women.

First week looks like rough.

Ugh. Two fucking hours of “I don’t have good news for you… I have great news! You’re coming back!” I fucking hate this show.

I can’t believe they decided to kick Jamal (the widower’s friend), he was far better than many of the other guys.

Plus having two buddies competing against each other would have made for some great drama.
