American Idol 7 - David Wins!

It’s moments like this that make me proud to be an American!  David Cook is the new American Idol.  Now if we can all just pull together and elect the right president too.  Oh, screw it, at least we got one right. 

American Idol 7 - Final Performances

In the red corner David “Rocker” Cook and in the blue corner David “Baby Face” Archuleta, both are ready to go three rounds to gain the title of AI Champ.  May the best David win.  
David Cook starts with a Clive Davis pick “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” by U2.  He didn’t try [...]

American Idol 7 - Down to the David’s

Tonight’s result show was actually worth watching, just for the shot of Simon’s face when Fantasia performed.

3 seconds out of 3600.  The other 3597 seconds were filed with the usual boring crap that Idol serves up every Wednesday night. Sorry, but her performance was crap too. I liked Fantasia when she was on the show, [...]

American Idol 7 - Cook and Cowell

The judges pick the first songs for the final three contestants.  David Archuleta started with Paula’s pick, Billy Joel’s “And So It Goes”.  He sounded powerful and tender.  Randy thinks David can sing anything…”You’re in it to win it.” Paula thought it was a pure and stunning performance. Simon thought it was good, if a [...]

American Idol 7 - Castro’s Cast Off

I have such a hard time writing about results night.  Unfortunately American Idol doesn’t seem to have a hard time filling an entire hour full of fluff when five minutes would do.  I mean we just want to know who’s going home. For the most part I don’t even want to see them sing again. [...]

American Idol 7 - Rocky Road for Rock & Roll

Ryan informs us that anything can happen - every vote counts as the final four fight for the rights to be exploited by the American Idol Juggernaut.  Tonight’s songs are Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees.
Looks like AI might be stacking the deck for David Cook. He sang Duran Duran’s “Hungry Like a Wolf” [...]

American Idol 7 - David Rocks Diamond

 Who hasn’t heard of Neil Diamond (besides my 17 year old daughter?) He is a legend, but I honestly couldn’t tell you five songs he’s written.  I’m sure the contestants are feeling the same as he mentors them this week.
Jason Castro started out with “Forever in Blue Jeans” and I think his days are numbered. [...]

American Idol 7 - Jesus Christ Carly’s Gone

Carly Smithson and Syesha Mercado were in the bottom two this week.  WTH?  Both these ladies had powerful performances and neither deserved to be in the bottom.  Brooke White stumbled over her lyrics and Jason Castro fell flat and they remain safe. The judges are shocked by the results and I’m shocked by that Carly [...]

American Idol 7 - Show us your Tunes

The top six perform show tunes and if history repeats most of these hopefuls will be happy if they get to headline on Broadway after their idol moment. The judges aren’t optimistic about the night.  Randy thinks it’s probably going to be the toughest night because the songs aren’t easy.  Simon isn’t usually too keen [...]

American Idol 7 - Red Rover Results

Have I mentioned how annoying results night is?  Tonight was especially annoying as Ryan Seacrest plays with the placement of contestants. Did he torture bugs and tease small animals when he was a kid too?
David Cook was set aside as though there was any way he could be in the bottom three.  Jason, Syesha and Carly [...]
