American Idol 7×09 – Hollywood Week

Hollywood Week! I can’t believe I haven’t posted anything major since the last American Idol post. Just a lot of asides and a couple of videos. That’s disappointing. Oh, well.

American Idol 7×08 – Best of the Rest

“Best” has double connotation in this episode, I’m guessing. Because eight hours of auditions hasn’t been enough so far, they decide to give us another hour of auditions which weren’t good enough or funny enough to put in the first eight hours. Although if I recall correctly, there were a few really good auditions in last year’s “best of the rest” show that I was surprised hadn’t been highlighted the first time around. Anyway, the real good news here? Next week is Hollywood week! And the good news there: we’re almost to the competition part, which I like better. The auditions are just getting old for me. For whatever reason, I still enjoy the auditions on Australian Idol; perhaps because it’s just a better show. I still need to finish watching last season (for which I’ve amazingly remained unspoiled).

American Idol 7×06

I liked doing the liveblog last night, so I’m doing it again.

American Idol 7×05

I’m going to try a new live-blogging thing tonight, just for kicks. If you’re reading during the show, you should be able to keep watching this page and see the post update without having to reload the page. You can also submit comments at any time, which I can display inline. It seems like a really cool platform, and won’t limit me to 140 characters, like Twitter does. That could be good or bad. ;)

I just realized that I forgot to ever post about last week’s shows. Tuesday I liked Samantha (the girl who came in with her friend, both of them enamored of Simon) and David (the boy who had struggled with paralyzed vocal chords) the best. I don’t remember on Wednesday, honestly. I watched it the next day and didn’t take notes, and don’t remember being particularly blow away by anyone. My continuing gripe this year is that Simon keeps saying “you’re just like everyone else and therefore we don’t want you” but the ones they choose are also just like everyone else. Although, I haven’t really seen any auditions that weren’t either good, but like everyone else, or awful. So maybe there just aren’t any original-sounding people willing to audition anymore.

Anyway, check back here at seven and we’ll try out CoverItLive.
