Woah... that dude is a total sell out.

So pretentious. The drummer was utterly pretentious though. He's content to label anything he doesn't like as useless while believing that his standards are by what music should be judged. Maybe the guy just sees the band going no where and he want a change.

Mary must be schitzo. I couldn't guess what she was going to do next or where her mood was going to take her.
 
Ratings:

IDOL STILL WORSHIPPED: Fox predicted American Idol would lose some steam this season — and wow were they wrong. Last night's two-hour, fourth-season premiere averaged a whopping 33.4 million viewers, up 17 percent over 2004's debut. Somewhere, the voices in Mary Roach's head are screaming, "You're the next William Hung!"
 
I'm still waiting for someone to ask Paula how the hell is she judging people in a singing competition when she couldn't even sing. Anyone remember that song she did with MC Scat Kat? Yikes.

Getting sick of hearing about the show, for real. !!!!!WATCH SMALLVILLE YALL, DONT WATCH AMERICAN IDOL!!!!!

To be honest I'd rather watch American Idol... but if you don't want to hear about it, seems logical to not enter threads where people are talking about it. Go start up a smallville thread or something :)

Randy and Simon aren't singers at all, and yet they judge people singing. You don't have to have singing talent to recognize singing talent.
 
I watched like a minute of American Idol once..

I saw Clay Aiken singing some commercial for soap or something. I think he was in a bathtub with the fat black guy. Lots of bubbles and smiling..

And then I decided to never watch this again.

Didn't Randy sing in Journey or was he just the manager?

That guy would've had to been an incredible actor if he was faking that. Did you see him in the hallway warming up before the show? It looked like he was trying to do a front flip but he landed on the side of his head and got up looking around to see if anyone saw him.

I dont understand how people watch this show.
HAHA HE SINGS BAD! So fuckign what? They obviously know theyre bad and theyre doing it to get on tv.

Whats left? Watching people decent voices sing crappy cover songs?
If you actually watched the show, you'd know that wasn't the case at all.

Understand: the people they show in these preliminary rounds believe absolutely that they can sing -- even to the point of putting enormous emotional stock in the contest. Some of the rejected contestents seem as if they are heading for a breakdown, and fast. As a thorough misanthrop, I must admit, this kind of debauchery is almost too much fun to watch sometimes (the earlier episodes, of course).

24 is free from This Apparition. No more AI lead in!@!!!!

This is not true.
There will be a couple of weeks where AI will be the lead in of 24. It has something to do with the men vs women (monday men / t women / w resulshow).

It's only for a couple of weeks though.
 
I was a little weary of FOX planting actors that sung bad on purpose for entertainment (and they may still do that)

However, last season, one of the contestants they were making fun of was in my Chemistry class sophomore year. And yes she did think she could sing like no other back then. I was watching the show with some friends and we all recognized her and had a nice big laugh, when the judges thrashed into her.
 
Wait a second... there was a third American Idol show?!? I know Kelly and Ruben were the original 2. Was the American Juniors show considered the 3rd or something?
 
:lol Paula started choking in her drink when that guy said he sounded like Brian McKnight. :lol

*Maurice finishes singing*

Randy: Wow..Just wow...

Maurice: Thank you!

uh, no. there was a full 3rd season.
 
Half these people are obviously acting just to get on tv... and some of them are really bad at it. Have all the seasons been like this?

Pretty much so, which is why I always avoid watching this. Same 'ol thing every year
 
They need to make the scenes with the bad singers short and sweet. Hearing that guy with the "longest note" was extremely annoying; it went from funny, to, ".....ummm, OK. Stop him, please."
 
its supposed to be really hard to actually get an audition in front of Simon, Paula and the black dude, so the fact that these horrible singers make it that far would lead one to believe its obviously staged.

It's called, if you're really good, you go through to simon, etc.. If you're really bad, you go in through to simon... If you're somewhere in the middle. You're shit outta luck.
 
Yeah. On a scale of 0 to 10, all the 0 - 3s would probably make it as well as the 7 - 10s. (10 = Whitney Houston/Mariah Carey)

If I had to rank myself (because I also sing), I'd give myself a 7.9. Auditions came to Cleveland, but I had a summer internship. If I was free, I might've considered the opportunity (after hours and hours of debating it with myself :p)

[insert segue]

It's weird...some of those horrible people (like that black guy who used the word 'fabalous') can actually sound pretty decent, because they have somewhat of a singing voice. They just have no idea what to do with it, and because of that, they sound really bad.

Anyways, New Orleans is up in 5. :)
 
Leroy was the fucking man.

This dude was clearly blunted up before he even showed up. The downside of William Hung is that American Idol will be populated by people competing to be the absolute worst just to be on TV as well.

But damn New Orleans, you let me down in a way that not even the Saints have done before. I will hold me head in shame for years....
 
Leroy was a Dave Chapelle skit gone CRUNK!!

I just realized why I love the show. This is the modern day Gong Show with Simon as anti-Chuck Berry. I wish they would bring back that show reruns or remade.
 
:lol

My favorite part was when he's going into the waiting room, there's this kid staring at him, and the mom picks up the kid and takes her away from Leroy's entrance.
 
Holy shit there are some awesome pranks in this one. Mary (the schizo) was hilarous. Toni Braxton's cousins was another classic. And Leroy was the most entertaining audition I've seen!
