Tonight, they have to get it all in, squeezing the last dollar out of each of their sponsors while somehow making us think we’re being entertained by two hours of commercials punctuated by the occasional live performance and finally, an announcement of the winning wannabe at 10:02 (just to piss off the DVR folks). Then, mercifully, we’ll be done until January 2009.
The entertainment charade will involve the Jonas Brothers and Carrie Underwood (thankfully not Miley Cyrus, as I originally reported—my bad for picking up on a blogosphere rumor), along with cameos by Idols past and plenty of forgettable banter by Seacrest and the judges. We’ll probably see a performance by the aggregated top eight Idol contestants, as a preview and promo for their forthcoming Idol Tour. Perhaps there will be a sprinkling of out-takes and funny auditions. There will be “surprises.” But mostly there will be commercials.
Archuleta and Cook will be placed on public display like zoo animals and will occasionally asked, in so many words, just how brown their shorts are. The sadistic rite of making them wait to find out will be played out as painfully as it has been for each of the past six seasons. When, in the waning buy ativan 2mg online seconds of the show, the idol of the universe is announced, there’ll be just enough time to say goodbye.
Most people expect David Archuleta to be this year’s American Idol but anything can happen, as we’ve seen in prior years. I have never, ever been able to rationalize Taylor Hicks’ win over Katharine McPhee and it seemed that Bo Bice had a strong lead over Carrie Underwood, yet Carrie won. But that was then and this is now. Last year, we all knew that Jordin Sparks would triumph over Blake Lewis. (Seriously, can you remember anything that either of them sang?) This year, we all sorta know that David Archuleta will wind up on top.
If David Cook somehow pulls out the win, justice will be served. Anyway you slice it, Cook will have greater potential as a recording artist than PeeWee. It doesn’t matter anymore who wins and who doesn’t. They’re all winners at this level. Doors will open for them now.

OK, so I installed Slingbox on my notebook so I can watch this thing and blog from the bathroom. TMI? Tough shit!
I’ve already consumed 3 liters of the pineapple flavored polyethylene glycol crap and I have one more to go.
—TNT
The Nittany Turkey says
My snack for tonight will be…polyethylene glycol!!! Yay!!!
The Nittany Turkey says
Maybe some Gatorade, too.

Note to Self: Fasten your seatbelt, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride.
The Redhead says
Where is your blackberry? Thought you were going to get one.
The Redhead says
By the way,
The Redhead has arrived.
The Redhead says
Ya know, I’m waiting for the unauthorized, behind-the-scenes, tell-all book about AI.
The Nittany Turkey says
The Blackberry is in my pocket.
The Nittany Turkey says
But I can’t watch American Idol on my Blackberry (yet).
The Nittany Turkey says
Hmmmm 56/44
The Redhead says
Stay hydrated, Turkey. Take it from an expert.
The Nittany Turkey says
Matt Rogers, ex University of Nebraska football player and American Idol contender.
The Nittany Turkey says
You’re an expert, eh?
The Redhead says
There’s your babe…uh, what was her name again?
The Nittany Turkey says
Fee fie foe fum…
The Nittany Turkey says
Ramielle Malubay
The Redhead says
Ulcerative colitis: Age 4. Frankfurt, Germany: American Military Hospital.
Sort of set the stage for the procedures to come.
The Nittany Turkey says
I should just be able to pour this stuff down the toilet without running it through me.
The Nittany Turkey says
Yeah, well this is colonoscopy number six for me, so I’m quite well prepared for all possibilities.
The Nittany Turkey says
I’ve developed a certain undesirable expertise of my own, as it were.
The Redhead says
Well, I’m not going to compete!!!!
The Nittany Turkey says
I liked the Phospho Soda approach better. This gallon of battery acid thing is all-consuming.
The Redhead says
What is this–a sing-off?
The Nittany Turkey says
Oh, how cute. Two Rode Together.
The Redhead says
The gallon thing–no way. The other s–t is much better.
The Nittany Turkey says
The Unrighteous Brothers
The Redhead says
Do we still agree that David A. is this year’s winner?
The Redhead says
Too bad if he does take it. David Cook is the intelligent choice.
The Nittany Turkey says
I have no idea. But a 56/44 split suggests it, yes.
The Redhead says
So we’ve got Mike Myers now. Is this funny?
The Nittany Turkey says
More filler material.
The Redhead says
If this is funny, I’m either behind the times or way ahead 🙂
The Nittany Turkey says
I’ll go with way ahead.
The Nittany Turkey says
There is a certain irony watching that crap while sitting on the toilet.
The Redhead says
A whole movie of this s–t?
Uh, no pun intended, Turkey.
The Nittany Turkey says
I’ll just rush out and see that movie. Yup.
The Redhead says
Here ya go, Turkey!
Like the extensions.
The Nittany Turkey says
I like her more and more.
The Redhead says
Aw, it’s the Seal.
I dig me the Seal.
The Redhead says
This is pretty hot, actually.
The Nittany Turkey says
Who da pimp?
The Redhead says
I think she’s been coached. I see a possible career for her.
The Nittany Turkey says
I’d coach her.
The Redhead says
Seal.
Seal.
I dig the Seal.
The Nittany Turkey says
You stand alone with da Seal crap.
The Redhead says
Oh, here we have the trailer for The Love Guru.
It’s a one-note joke. So not funny.
The Nittany Turkey says
Most of Mike Myers stuff is unfunny.
The Redhead says
Come on! He’s had some great tunes.
Heidi Klum digs The Seal.
The Nittany Turkey says
Unless you’re 15.
The Nittany Turkey says
But then look at their target demographic and look at who watches this show.
The Nittany Turkey says
Ben thinks da Seal sux.
The Redhead says
I wouldn’t have laughed much at 15. My stupid friends would have though–the pot went to their heads.
The Nittany Turkey says
And he’s ugly, too.
The Redhead says
The Redhead thinks The Seal is da bomb!
The Nittany Turkey says
Fire and meat.
The Redhead says
We’re not going to agree on this one.
Let’s move on 🙂
The Nittany Turkey says
I moved on the minute I saw dat pimp.
The Redhead says
Fire and meat?
I don’t get it.
The Redhead says
I knew it would be Jason.
The Nittany Turkey says
Well, it was his best number, wasn’t it?
The Nittany Turkey says
Fire and meat was a Winn-Dixie commercial.
The Redhead says
Gee, he’s singing with more power than he ever did in competition.
But it still sucks.
This is a weird show.
The Nittany Turkey says
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
The Redhead says
Oh, I didn’t know he previously performed this.
The Nittany Turkey says
He’s been coached! He’s been coached!
The Nittany Turkey says
They’ll all be coached prior to the great big Idol Tour.
The Redhead says
You go guy!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Redhead says
Will we hear from Brook/Sheryl Crow tonight?
The Redhead says
Let’s hear it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Nittany Turkey says
What about Kristy?
The Redhead says
It’s the Oprah moment!
The Redhead says
I dig me the Donna!
The Nittany Turkey says
I need to take my 8:30 dose while this crap plays out.
The Redhead says
Who is this woman?????????????????
The Redhead says
They are bringing back people I don’t recognize.
The Redhead says
All right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Donna is in the house.
The Redhead says
She still has pipes.
The Redhead says
She needs to limber up though.
The Nittany Turkey says
So they’re doing has-been revivals again. First Neil Diamond, now Donna. Donna was a guest mentor a couple of years ago.
The Redhead says
Unlike so many others her age, Summers can still sing.
The Nittany Turkey says
Gotta fill the time somehow, and she gets promotion for her latest ablum, which will sell 500 copies.
The Redhead says
Ooooo, Paula is groovin’.
The Nittany Turkey says
She can’t sing anything I want to hear, though.
The Nittany Turkey says
Enough 1979 disco, already.
The Redhead says
Turkey never dug the disco.
What about Earth, Wind and Fire?
The Nittany Turkey says
Now this is a hot Diet Coke commercial.
The Redhead says
1979. That was some year!
The Nittany Turkey says
Hey, I actually liked EWF.
The Redhead says
Okay! So not all disco sucked.
The Nittany Turkey says
That’s the way…YOW…of the world…YOW YOW
The Nittany Turkey says
They had great harmony and didn’t rely on a lot of electronic crap.
The Nittany Turkey says
Oh, how I really really loved KC & the Sunshine Band.
The Nittany Turkey says
If you believe that, I’m voting for Obama.
The Nittany Turkey says
Her tatts are singing.
The Nittany Turkey says
Michael Johns could do Joe Cocker if he wanted to. And she ain’t doing too bad neither.
The Redhead says
Okay, I stepped out. That’s Carly, right? Who’s the dude?
The Redhead says
Why couldn’t Carly sing like this during competition?
The Nittany Turkey says
Dude is Michael Johns.
The Redhead says
Who is Michael Johns?
That was pretty hot.
The Nittany Turkey says
Because she wasn’t coached back then.
The Nittany Turkey says
Michael Johns is the Aussie guy from Atlanta who bombed out singing Dream On.
The Redhead says
So true, Turkey, so true.
The Redhead says
Oh yeah! He did the Queen medley. I liked him.
Ah, how quickly we (I) forget.
The Redhead says
This guy sort of reminds me of Howie Mandel from St. Elsewhere.
The Redhead says
Mandel crossed with Bob Costas.
The Nittany Turkey says
The Simon thing was cute. Redeemed the rest of his lame routine.
The Redhead says
Yeah baby!!!!!!!!!!! It’s the Summer of 69.
The Nittany Turkey says
Well, Jimmy Kimmel did do sports comedy before he generalized.
The Redhead says
I’m worried, Turkey. I’m enjoying this group rockers.
The Redhead says
I did not know that about Kimmel.
Makes sense.
The Redhead says
Make that, “these” group rockers.
I’m typing way too fast.
The Nittany Turkey says
I enjoyed it until Archuleta did his solo.
The Redhead says
All right, let’s go back to rocking. I’m not digging these ballads.
The Nittany Turkey says
Baby what a big surprise…
The Nittany Turkey says
Is it time for my 9:00 dose yet?
The Redhead says
Ryan Adams is a “B” rocker dude who actually gets your foot tappin.’
The Redhead says
I mean, Brian Adams.
Ryan is the more contemporary dude who would be greatly offended that I mixed him up with the older guy.
Get over it, dude. It’s show biz.
The Nittany Turkey says
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The Redhead says
Okay Turkey, high-tail it to the bathroom!
The Redhead says
RE: “Baby, what a big surprise”
Chicago: Now that is a band that sucked. I mean, could there ever have been a more limp band?
The Nittany Turkey says
I’ve moved to the family room so I can watch this on the big screen while there is a break in the action.
The Nittany Turkey says
Yes, there have been more limp bands.
The Redhead says
Color My World with love………….
gag………..
Does anyone really know what time it is?
Yes, I do, asshole: It’s 8:53pm.
The Nittany Turkey says
Frankie Goes to Hollywood.
Now there’s a limp band.
The Redhead says
Name a few, Turkey.
Here’s one: Air Supply.
The Nittany Turkey says
Or any band in the 80s. Including Genesis.
The Nittany Turkey says
REO SPeedwagon
The Nittany Turkey says
Jordin looked better before they got their hands on her.
The Redhead says
Genesis. Now there was a band that sucked.
I actually saw REO Speedwagon at a concert in the 1970s. Guess what?
They sucked!!!!!!!!!!!!
🙂
The Nittany Turkey says
Here you go, old pothead.
The Nittany Turkey says
ZZ Top in da house
The Redhead says
Turkey, this show is tolerable tonight because it is rockin!
The Nittany Turkey says
I’m suddenly liking this show.
The Redhead says
I saw The Top in the 70s. They weren’t as good as they would become in the 80s.
The Nittany Turkey says
Cook is right at home with ZZ Top, except for beard length.
The Redhead says
I’m digging this!
The Redhead says
Cook is right at home.
Yeah, you said that!
The Nittany Turkey says
Who are they going to show off Archuleta with? Josh Groban?
The Redhead says
Now THAT’S an AI!!!!
The Redhead says
Yeah, Grandma!
The Nittany Turkey says
She was one of my favorites from years past.
The Redhead says
Oh, does this fit Brooke!
The Nittany Turkey says
Christ almighty.
The Nittany Turkey says
Nash has had a long and distinguished career. But enough is enough!!!!
The Redhead says
Aw, Brooke, she wants to be the next Joni/Carly/Sheryl.
The Nittany Turkey says
I’m going for my 9:00 dose. Fittingly.
The Redhead says
I’d rather look at him than those slobs Crosby, Stills and Young.
The Redhead says
Turkey, this isn’t a bad season-ender. I’m actually enjoying the music.
The Redhead says
Turkey, you’re harsh. Nash sounded and looked fine. What, he should hang it up because he’s over 55?
The Nittany Turkey says
Crosby is working on his fifth liver. And I am DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Nittany Turkey says
With the NuLytely, I mean. I’ve finished drinking a whole gallon of that crap and a whole gallon of water. Now I get to start on the Gatorade.
The Nittany Turkey says
Tom Cruise in da house.
The Nittany Turkey says
Not really. David Cook was doing a movie promo acting like Risky Business.
The Nittany Turkey says
Stop already with the food commercials!
The Nittany Turkey says
Ben hungry.
The Redhead says
But that wasn’t Crosby, it was Nash.
Not fair to make them one person.
The Nittany Turkey says
I think I’ll go to the bathroom for the Jonas Bros.
The Redhead says
Oh…I get it, Turkey! I feel for you. It’s not a fun night-before-the-big-C.
Who is this band? The new Boys Down the Block or whatever?
The Redhead says
Man, this is worse than MMMMMM Bop.
Ick.
The Nittany Turkey says
They’re called Perlman Does Time.
The Jonas Brothers.
The Redhead says
I’d rather watch David Cassidy (then).
The Nittany Turkey says
The little girls love them.
The Nittany Turkey says
Just like Archuleta.
The Redhead says
Or Bobby Sherman.
Remember him?
The Nittany Turkey says
They suck big time.
The Redhead says
Yeah, 25 years. That is rough.
The Nittany Turkey says
Bobby Sherman, who covered Here Comes the Sun.
The Redhead says
Yikes. I missed this.
The Redhead says
YIKES! This is scary.
The Redhead says
Are these people serious?
The Nittany Turkey says
Yeah. That’s why I rarely watch the audition shows.
The Redhead says
This is a gimmick.
The Redhead says
Anything to get on TV.
The Nittany Turkey says
But they always bring these idiots back.
The Redhead says
Yeah, I remember last year.
This is sad.
The Nittany Turkey says
Couple of years ago, they had a kid who couldn’t sing whose idol was Clay Aiken. They put him on the final show doing “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me” and Aiken came out and finished the song for him.
The Redhead says
A commercial break is welcome at this point.
The Redhead says
How ya feelin’, Turkey?
The Nittany Turkey says
Feeling like a fire hose after a three-alarmer.
The Redhead says
Man, that’s either sweet or cruel.
The Nittany Turkey says
Well, hell, I’ve run two gallons through my ass in 8 hours.
The Redhead says
I meant about C. Aiken finishing the song…but it fits otherwise as well 🙂
The Nittany Turkey says
It was cruel…the kid wanted to sing with him but they made him sit down when Aiken took over.
The Redhead says
Keep drinking, Gatorade.
What’s the flavor, Turkey?
The Redhead says
Bastards.
The Nittany Turkey says
Lemon-lime. And it’s Powerade, not Gatorade. I lied.
The Nittany Turkey says
Who the hell is this?
The Redhead says
Re: Hannah Montana. I’ve read she’s going to be on the show. She sort of came out of nowhere for me. I’ve never heard or seen (except still shots in the newspaper) her. What’s up with that? She’s another Disney chickette, right?
The Redhead says
Don’t know this freak.
Powerade. That’s still cool.
The Redhead says
A twosome for the ages.
The Redhead says
Wonder if Paula and David C. will be getting together later this evening, now that the compeition is over?
Winkwink.
🙂
The Nittany Turkey says
Miley Cyrus is Hannah Montana. She’s the daughter of Billy Ray Cyrus and his wife Tish. However, I’m thinking that one blog started the rumor that she’d be on the show tonight and it ain’t true. Yeah, she’s a Disneyette.
The Redhead says
Okay, Turkey is in the bathroom.
The Redhead says
Here he is!
I think she’ll be on the show, Turkey.
The Redhead says
Man, where did all these kids come from?
The Redhead says
I say I can speak no Eengleesh.
The Nittany Turkey says
I think Carrie Underwood will be on the show tonight, not Miley Cyrus.
The Redhead says
Aw, Jordin. You’ve got to pass the crown tonight.
The Nittany Turkey says
But what the hell. If the overrated 15 year-old does show up, we’ll get to see her gums.
The Redhead says
Poor kid.
The Redhead says
I think she’ll show.
The Nittany Turkey says
As I recall, Prince was the big surprise last year or the year before, so maybe they could get Miley. I dunno.
The Redhead says
I kinda dig this song. Who originally did it, do you know?
The Redhead says
Prince did AI? I heard he put on a great show at the Super Bowl a few years ago. Sorry I missed that though I could probably catch the replay on YouTube.
The Nittany Turkey says
Not very Idolesque.
The Redhead says
Hey Turkey–our Garmin Forerunner 305s came today!
The Nittany Turkey says
Terrifidaculous.
The Nittany Turkey says
Now you’ll have to learn how to play with them.
The Redhead says
It is so hot. As you know, Math Guy and I don’t have central air. We’ve got the attic fan on full blast and it’s still steamy!
The Redhead says
Can’t wait until I can run with it!
The Redhead says
Gladys Knight was on last year!
The Redhead says
Okay, this isn’t bad.
But I can’t stand Ben Stiller.
The Redhead says
Actually, this is pretty lame.
The comedy on the show is so pedestrian.
The Nittany Turkey says
I fail to see the hilarity in this bit. Is the laughter canned? Or are people really laughing at this crap?
The Redhead says
Poor Turkey. Stuck in inside of the bathroom with the Memphis Blues Again.
The Redhead says
This
Sucks.
The Nittany Turkey says
I’m in the family room now.
The Redhead says
You were right. It’s Carrie Underwood.
The Nittany Turkey says
OK, you’re right. Miley will show up. They will give her the feature slot just before the big announcement. Carrie came out too early, so I’ll now believe the friggin rumor.
The Redhead says
This doesn’t stike me as anything out of the ordinary.
The Nittany Turkey says
Carrie, I t’ink, is the most successful Idol.
The Redhead says
“strike.”
The Nittany Turkey says
Well you ain’t into modern country.
The Redhead says
Seems so. I still like Kelly Clarkson.
The Nittany Turkey says
She gotta promote her latest ablum.
The Redhead says
No, I ain’t.
The Nittany Turkey says
Kelly good. Ben like Kelly.
The Nittany Turkey says
I had some bouillon cubes with 1995 expiration date for lunch. They were probably an additional laxative.
The Redhead says
It’s going to be a hot summer, Turkey! Temps are already in the 90s. The track workouts are going to be boilers!
The Nittany Turkey says
More Risky Business.
The Nittany Turkey says
Come over here Sunday and I’ll introduce you to my three central a/c units.
The Redhead says
Any jello?
Popsicles? Those are particulary good after a hot run.
The Redhead says
We’ve got the window units which do well. Just hate to turn the suckers on.
The Redhead says
Looking forward to Sunday, Turkey!
The Redhead says
Is George Michael going to come out of the bathroom?
The Redhead says
This woman sounds drunk. The one with the frosted hair. Who is that?
The Nittany Turkey says
He’s DC, not AC.
The Nittany Turkey says
That is Amanda Overmyer. She was like #9 or so.
The Redhead says
Did you catch her?
The Redhead says
Wow. She is drunk, Turkey.
The Redhead says
I don’t recall her singing like that.
The Nittany Turkey says
She was the Janis Joplin one.
The Redhead says
I kinda dig this tune…even though it’s by GM.
The Redhead says
Well, she’s f–cked up tonight. She never sounded like that before.
The Nittany Turkey says
Yeah, she did. You just jumped on the train at the tail end. She always wanted to be Janis.
The Nittany Turkey says
Or maybe like The Rose.
The Nittany Turkey says
And now….straight from the men’s room in McArthur Park…..GEORGIEEEE!
The Redhead says
Wow–he doesn’t look like the GM I remember.
Not another slow ballad.
The Nittany Turkey says
He’s uglier than ever.
The Redhead says
This is just sad.
The Redhead says
Wake me up when he go-goes!
The Nittany Turkey says
He should have sung a Wham song and left it at that.
The Nittany Turkey says
Paula is taken.
The Redhead says
Wow. I can’t believe how sad this is.
The Redhead says
Wham-O–it’s over!
The Nittany Turkey says
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The Redhead says
I guess he never had much of a voice.
The Nittany Turkey says
Perhaps I can talk Math Guy into lunch tomorrow. I’m hungry already.
The Redhead says
The producers should’ve nixed this. Talk about a downer.
The Nittany Turkey says
He always had that high register that if he yelled loud enough sounded OK.
The Redhead says
Do you think you’ll feel up to lunch?
The Nittany Turkey says
May I wake up now?
The Nittany Turkey says
Lock up your young sons…George is coming to San Diego!
The Redhead says
Wow. He’s the BIG STAR tonight?
What a joke.
The Redhead says
Time has not been kind to GM.
The Redhead says
They should have gone out with Carrie Underwood.
Lame, man, lame.
The Nittany Turkey says
Apparently, Miley was, in fact, vaporware. Yet another internet rumor. I know how it came about. One blog heard Clive Davis tell Seacrest on his radio show that there would be guests on tonight’s show consisting of some popular young brothers and the biggest star in the world. I think they imputer Miley Cyrus to be the latter. In actuality, it was probably Carrie Underwood Clive was talking about.
The Redhead says
Is it too late for Smiley or Myley or whatever her name is???
The Nittany Turkey says
We only have four minutes left, and they need to squeeze in about six more commercials.
The Redhead says
Bring back ZZ Top!
The Redhead says
Randy’s jacket looks like something out of The Music Man.
The Nittany Turkey says
I just love everybody.
—Paula
The Nittany Turkey says
Music Man 😀
The Redhead says
Good for you, Simon!
The Redhead says
Yeah yeah, Price Waterhouse, etc.
The Redhead says
Gulp.
The Nittany Turkey says
This could be it.
The Nittany Turkey says
WOW!
The Nittany Turkey says
Justice prevails!
The Redhead says
ALLL RIGHT!!!!!!!!!111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Nittany Turkey says
I am flabbergasted.
The Redhead says
Wow. Poor David A. looked devastated.
The Redhead says
Turkey, we’ve been wrong all season.
Wow!
The Nittany Turkey says
Awwwwwwwwwwww Mom
The Nittany Turkey says
David A will now have to face the wrath of his father, Murray Wilson.
The Redhead says
They picked the right guy.
Amazing.
The Redhead says
I feel sorry for the poor kid, David A.
The Nittany Turkey says
There is no accounting for the voting public.
The Redhead says
I think Cook was blown away by the surprise.
The Nittany Turkey says
He’ll be embarking on a tour of Marakesh with ZZ Top.
The Nittany Turkey says
I agree with you. I think thought he was the loser.
The Redhead says
This song is so lame.
Too bad.
The Nittany Turkey says
Archuleta’s smile is freaky.
The Redhead says
David A. is putting on a brave face but he’s hearbroken.
Poor kid.
That’s show biz.
The Nittany Turkey says
The winning song in each year’s competition is always lame. But the winning Idol always has to record the damn thing.
The Nittany Turkey says
Well, Red, I’m going to write my thoughts and get to bed.
The Redhead says
Turkey, it’s another AI season gone!
It’s been a blast.
The Nittany Turkey says
Goodnight, and see you here, same time, same place, in January.
The Nittany Turkey says
Peace out and good luck DC!
The Redhead says
Have a safe procedure tomorrow, Turkey.
Get the good drugs.
Until next year:
That’s show biz.
The Redhead says
Yes, good luck, DC!
Rock on!
