As I said last week, this is the Top 3 I wanted. I’d be happy if any one of them won in the end. That said, I don’t think I had clued in to the reality that, holy heck, one of them has to go home before the finale and, not only that, it could […]

Idol Top 4.2 Results: Suspense Four Nothing

Well thank God someone was actually eliminated because I’m seriously out of “four” puns for this season. That said, Thursday’s results show wasn’t without plenty of suspense as Ryan withheld any results until the very end of the telecast.

Idol Top 4 – Part 2: This One’s Four The Girls

Well, I have to say that keeping these for girls around for another night of performances made for an interesting show. The content of the judging was slightly better than last week but their antics had me cringing all night. From Mariah and Nicki’s bickering to Randy’s pissing contest with guest mentor (and hopefully future […]
