So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehn, Goodbye

So, off the top- the Ford commercial is lame, the group sing was only slightly better than usual, and the judges are stupid. ( Well, they haven’t done anything offensive as of this moment, but it bears repeating.)
The typical breakdown that Idol does for top five week, creating two groups of two and making the [...]

They Can Take This Away From Me, DAMMIT!

Idol and standards weeks has previously delivered some great performances- Kelly Clarkson’s ” Stuff Like That There”, Fantasia’s ” Summertime” immediately come to mind.  But it’s a week that always worries me, because there might be a desire by the Idols in the effort for relevance to strip the melodies of classic, beautiful songs to [...]

Chuck Update

Please ignore all rumors- NBC did momentarily have Series Finale on the official Chuck webpage, but that has been fixed. NBC may be stupid, but they are not THAT stupid. Also, there is no merit to the suggestions that ABC would pick up Chuck. There is no financial incentive for them to do so. This [...]

Now, there are rumors floating about that Chuck has been picked up for thirteen ( no truth to that), Nikki Finke saying that the show is safe ( I have issues with Ms. Finke at times, some things she wrote during the WGAstrike hurt some writer friends deeply, [...]

Do a Little Dance, Make A Little Love, Go Home Tonight

Fucking Idol had to remind me of Paula’s “sexy” comment for DWP last night? Why does Idol hate me so when all I do is love snark it?
Anyhoo, tonight’s Idol will be interrupted as I will watch part of the East coast Letterman feed- one of my future husbands is on, and the EC feed [...]

I Love The Nightlife, I like to Boogie, on The Idol Sta—ay–ay–ge, Yeah

Wow, we’re moving quick this week. Did Fringe fans threaten Seacrest’s life? Or did Fox execs? (I’m betting it was the Fringsters).
Lil Rounds goes with Chaka Khan’s legendary ” I’m Every Woman” and completely butchers the modulation of the chorus, goes sharp constantly on her big notes, and is a general train wreck. That was [...]

Ruminations on Chuck Episode 2-21 ” Chuck vs. the Colonel”

First off, Colonel is a funny word. Like Lieutenant in Canada, where it’s pronounced ” Lefftennant”. Just saying.
As season two of Chuck winds down, I have been thinking about a lot. Like how I am regretting not touting it as much as I should have. Not talking it up every week. I felt it would [...]

What The Idols Should Sing-Disco Week

You know, this one was just to mind blowing to wait till Monday or Tuesday to do. I mean, it’s disco week. The much mocked, undervalued seventies dance music that has enjoyed a recent underground revival ( truthfully, it never really went away). The general consensus is Adam will be the only one to survive [...]

We can Dance If We want To- The Safety Dance

Oh. My. God. Has Idol now become a UFC grudge match? WTF is up with that opening?
RyRy looks smirky and smarmy.
Looky, the Idols did a Ford vid to J. Geils Band’s 80s cheestastic ” Freeze Frame”.
“Maniac”? Really? Idol couldn’t clear a better song that?Oh, and it was painfully live, not canned. I’m in agony.
Adam looks [...]

Raise Your Hopeful Voice, You Have a Choice- So Don’t Choose Wrong

Quentin Tarantino, all-round pop culture geek, is this week’s mentor. I know some people have issues with this development, but I don’t. QT was a guest judge in season three ( he was a Fantasia fan), and every single one of his critiques were more spot on than any of the judges. In retrospect, he’s [...]

Save Chuck mini post of the day

I spend waaaa-aaay to much time watching the TV. I admit it. But I’m an obsessive creature by nature, and I tend to latch on to shows. Fortunately, I also suffer form what is known as a short attention span, so I obsess over multiple shows at multiple times. But once as show has hooked [...]

Chuck Monday: The List

I spent all this past long weekend hunkered down with every episode of my favorite spy show ever in marathon session ( only breaking to watch Conan O’Brien on ITAS, but that’s a different obsession thread). So I decided to come up with a list of my ten favorite episodes.
10. Chuck vs. the Imported Hard [...]
