As Ryan Seacrest stated twice … tonight was the most “dramatic rose ceremony ever!” Oops… wrong show… but Ryan did focus on the “dramatic”, and “intense” in his announcements. I’m sure dragging out the announcements stresses out the American Idol contestants and the producers seem to be trying to make things a little less predictable [...]

I actually have to say that I was was pleased with most of the performances on American Idol last night – and even though some contestants fell far short of the greatness of Elvis – others came through with flying colors.

In my opinion the [...]

What do you think of American Idol’s Top 12 this year? 2010… I just had a comment on a previous post that the contestants seem to lack diversity. As they introduced the contestants… actually it was a bit skewed to 9 white contestants, 2 black contestants, and 1 Latino. I did think that the talent [...]
