American Idol- Hit The Snooze

Ellen DeGeneres- "This is gonna be tough, because everyone is doing well."

I could not disagree more with the woman who tried to use Shania Twain in a terrible train joke twice in one episode. Nobody did well tonight. The only one who didn't embarrass himself this week was Lee DeWyze, whose lackluster You're Still the One was much worse than his past three performances. Lackluster or not, Lee was the only one who didn't have me falling asleep or covering my ears.

Big Mike Lynche had me snoozing a la Lil Rounds. Thank God the director is so bad that he pans the crowd more than the contestant during performances, because he aren't relegated to watching Big Mike's cheesy looks for an entire minute and thirty seconds.

Is it really cold on stage because Casey James seems to be shivering like a mother when he holds long notes...oh that's just his horrible vibrato? Oh yeah I forgot.

Crystal Bowersox was just fine and dandy tonight. But when you portray a certain amount of awesomeness throughout the first nine weeks of a season, and then come up with a boring song at top six, I'm not gonna be happy with it. Did Seacrest really say that Shania Twain "has really white teeth!" right in front of MamaSox? That is a slap in the face if I've ever heard one. Yo Ryan recognize your surroundings. Also on Ms. Boxershorts. Stop talking back to the judges! It was at first a nice confidence, but is now becoming Siobhan-esque and whiny. Take any and all criticism and do your thing. Do not come up with excuses or reasons for what you did!

Oh boy Aaron Kelly. This kid is basically little dude you would find at your run of the mill high school musical. He has no talent but puts on this facade that he has a big voice. The judges week after week have to compliment him, and the rest of these jokes, so that they don't look like complete idiots for not getting any good talent to the finals.

Siobhan Magnus reverted back to her old, terrible self tonight and of course the judges loved it. When she gets in her "zone" she is like a little fat kid that is put in a race. He walks the first 90% of it and then sprints at the end so the parents will clap for him. She goes blah blah blah for the whole song and then screams out a couple of lines at the end that had me running for the other room. This was garbage.

Rizzo quit watching Idol a couple weeks ago, Jaydon tweeted last night that he might be following suit, and JJ said that he'd rather sit in a dark room and think about the season three finale of LOST than watch that sorry excuse for an Idol episode. If I didn't have so many issues I might jump on this bandwagon and stop watching Idol. I have to see this out to the end though. I really hope Idol falls apart when X-Factor comes around. Hopefully they can make some changes that have me excited to watch a singing competition again.

I still can't believe nobody sang Man I Feel Like Some Christmas!
