Muenkel 0 #1 January 16, 2008 It's that time again folks. At the very least, AI sees us winter people through to the spring.I'm going to make a couple predictions after tonight's premier. On to the finals will be the black girl who has the handicapped daughter and the white girl from Oregon who sold a horse to make the trip to Philly (Kind of ironic that last one). _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #2 January 16, 2008 I have yet to watch an episode of American Idol. I don't think this will be the season. Yet somehow, I manage to maintain awareness of the winners every year. Y'all have fun. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J.

Muenkel 0 #3 January 16, 2008 One really funny moment tonight was a guy who sang some song about Moses. His voice was so deep, he actually sounded like the burning bush in 'The Ten Commandments'. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His co-workers talked him in to trying out for AI, probably knowing all it would do would embarrass him.ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hell, if I get skydiving again; I'm secure enough in my heterosexuality to attend the Rainbow Boogie. Anyway, the reason I love AI is because singing has been a huge part of my family. My mother sang professionally and also won many competitions back in her day. I personally have sang all my life. I understand how difficult it is for these kids to compete on AI. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shropshire 0 #11 January 16, 2008 aghhh the Mingers, Blingers and Clingers showLet's make some other predictions... The favourite comments from judges will be... "You really owned that song" "That song was too big for you" During the series, one of the judges will walk out and then come back again. We all know that it's crap tellie, but strangly addictive (says more about us that the program makers). (.)Y(.)

CReW Skies, bubbles * A guy even creepier than me did wrote and performed a love/stalker song for Paula Abdul. It was hilarious but I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a restraining order. * A guy dressed like a male belly dancer from hell was told to go away but asked for (and received) a second chance if he would get his hairy chest waxed. He did and came back. No, he didn't make it to Hollywood. * The "scariest woman in Philadelphia" auditioned. She was not a bad singer but got really pissed at Simon, who was not all all that mean to her--at least by *his* standards. * The tour guide from Philadelphia who sang a Christian song in a way that for some reason reminded me of how Chef from Southpark would sound if he overdosed on Valium. Seemed like a nice guy who got talked into auditioning by some really mean coworkers. There were really good singers too. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muenkel 0 #23 January 16, 2008 What does suck about AI is the teenybopper vote. Those little people vote thousands of times in one night. The result has been that the people who have deserved to win, didn't.

Even I, Skydiving's Biggest Asshole®, would *not* stoop as low as that guy's coworkers did in encouraging him to audition so they could laugh at him on national TV. IMO Fox shouldn't have aired that but I suppose they really wouldn't be Fox if they *didn't* air that kind of stuff. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
