Last night, the Idols sang the songs of Frank Sinatra after being coached by Harry Connick, Jr. I give this show a lot of crap, but I really must applaud them when, at times like this, they go above and beyond to keep the contestants relevant and … [Continue reading]
American Idol Top 5: The Trouble With Harry
May 5, 2010 By
From over 100,00 contestants (well, potential contestants -- Ryan likes to exaggerate), we're down to a mere 5. That's probably 5 too many, but we've stuck it out this long, haven't we? Might as well see it through. It's not like we have lives. Or … [Continue reading]
Sober House 2, Season Finale: Pointlessness
April 30, 2010 By
It's the moment we've all--well, six or seven of us, as I can't imagine the ratings are much higher--been waiting for. The Sober House Season Finale. Not because we're excited about something that's happening in the episode itself, but mostly because … [Continue reading]
American Idol Top 6: Results
April 28, 2010 By
Last night, Shania Twain stopped by to mentor the contestants to all-new heights of tedium. Tonight, she has good sense to stay away (unless I fast-forwarded through her). Instead, we're treated to an hour-long commercial for country music. It's … [Continue reading]

American Idol Results: Idol Gives Back
April 22, 2010 By
After a wonderful skip-year, "Idol Gives Back" is swooping down on us like a poor, disease-ridden, bird of prey. It wants our time. It wants our money. It absolutely wants our votes. And I think, maybe, it wants our souls. This is American Idol. … [Continue reading]
American Idol Top 7: Outwit, Outplay…Inspire?
April 21, 2010 By
With "Idol Gives Back" looming over us like a starving, malaria-ridden guillotine, tonight's musical theme is "inspirational songs," which for the contestants, roughly translates as "something I heard on the radio at some point." But there are only … [Continue reading]
