So I watched the whole show tonight, but unfortunately I don’t have much time to write about it. Here’s a few quick hits –
- The show improved immensely tonight. If I had to watch any more of those stage auditions, I was going to go crazy. I like the division into groups.
- However, if they plan on eliminating these groups as a whole, and not people individually within the groups, then that blows. The whole team shouldn’t be penalized for one dopey kid’s terrible performance.
- How did Mesh-Shirt Prince Guy make it through still? Terrible.
- Sorry, Mark Inman. My invitation to you writing this blog with me expired the second I saw you lose your shit on national TV when you got the boot. Unless you want to write for me. Then we’ll talk.
- Jazzlyn apparently forgot the words, but I never listen to U2’s words anyway, so I had no idea. She continues to impress me, despite her crazy shyness.
- Brian Bradley, the little rapper boy, got a rap song to do. How convenient. And yet he forgot his words. Sigh… Come back next year, little dude.
- The “Superman” group was pretty bad, I thought. The one fat hairy guy did pretty well, though. I just don’t get why people feel they have to change all of the notes in songs that already have really good melodies.
- I wish Tiah had been more awful. I thought she was terrible in her initial audition, so I wanted her to be terrible again. Unfortunately, she was much improved. I still don’t think she’s a star, though.
- What’s up with that 12 year old chick looking like she’s 25 and singing like she’s 35? That’s nuts.
- Sometimes I think Simon doesn’t notice missed notes at all. No doubt the guy is smart and can pick a star, but I think he just doesn’t hear that things are off-pitch. Me and my wife both shudder at some notes and it shows Simon just sitting there smiling. I don’t know.
That’s my brief thoughts for the night’s show. What did you think??
