48 hours later…the results are the same
Unbelievable, as usual, the ‘Dead Man Walking’ show was a 55 minute infomercial, leading to 5 minutes of ‘Who’s going home?’ thrown in to torture and keep us to the very end.
Yawn, yet another Anticlimactic results show. Does Fox really need an hour long results show with so few people left in the competition?
Ryan Seacrest even stated at the beginning of the evening, “We have an hour and have to fill it up somehow”. Why have segments where Ryan quizzes pedestrians about the contestants.
We finally get the Pink performance that was promised three weeks ago during Idol Gives Back.
Why a Fantastic Four 2 preview?
It turns into another, Ryan pretending that he’s not gay by making innocuous comments about him thinking that Jessica Alba is hot charade. As much as you would like us to think that you might be on the fence sexually, we all know that Simon is the music that plays on your radio.
On to the Bee Gees, Barry’s performance of “To Love Somebody” was excruciatingly sad.
Appearing onstage wearing overly tight jeans, no visible ass to speak of and a see through shirt, this elderly man feebly attempted to replay a moment in time that had obviously evaporated into history.
It is becoming increasingly uncomfortable to see geriatric, one time stars, unsuccessfully wrestle with songs and music that 35 years ago they mastered with ease.
As for the results Lakisha gets the axe. Was it just me or did she appear to be relieved that she was finally getting to go home?
We now are required to sit through next weeks performances to get to the known destination of seeing Blake sent home, and setting up the finale’ that was known a month ago, Jordin against the back up singer.
I can pretend that anyone can win, but I won’t.
Jordin Sparks is going to win. You can argue reasons as to why you believe otherwise…but you would be wrong.
Up next…..where American Idol jumped the tracks and left the talent behind….

I don’t know which was more boring sitting in a rubber room or watching Wednesday nights show……

Agreed. This ‘theme’ was one of the more miserable of the last two seasons. This ‘theme’ didn’t push the contestants vocally and with the Bee Gees being a group, it didn’t leave a lot to choose from to showcase your vocal talent. And the results were about the worst case secret in the last ten years. Nobody expected anything else.
And a LOT of people were commenting on how bad the sound mix was on this show. Tons of mistakes by the board operators. I’ve run a sound board a few times and those were ‘rookie’ mistakes. Someone should have lost a job over that it was so bad. I wonder if Pink found the board operator after the show and pummelled him?
