iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 Not interested until they put up the betting lines. Then only to leech off of other people's analysis. I can't stand watching the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 I know its good for ratings but it's usually obvious who isn't good and is just looking to get on TV but they shouldn't let those people perform. The people watch for Simon, Paula and Randy until the competition actually start and attach themselves to someone. It'd save alot of time by just sending the crap home right away. Most aren't even funny or cute anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted January 17, 2007 Agreed. These aren't as funny when there's people who are purposely bad and know it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

devo 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 The kid with the juggling sticks was a highlight. I enjoyed how his mom comforted him with "Don't worry, you'll be famous someday." The hissy fit he threw alone should be enough for his fifteen minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 crap, i can't remember her name...she was on in the first half hour...she bombed at first, but they told her to sing a Shakira song and she did a dead on impression so they let her through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 I missed the blonde girl they kept showing on the previews going "I'm going to Holllllyyywooood!!!". At least, I thought I saw them show her tonight but missed the audition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

naiwf 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 There were only 2 good singers in that whole 2 hours. The brunette with the curly hair (last name was Krieger or Krueger I think) who sang "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" and Crackie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted January 17, 2007 Yeah, the only decent singer I recall was that kinda cute brunette in the 2nd hour, and they showed her for like a total of 30 seconds while doing the long storylines with all the crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoCalMike 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 I think the first few episodes where they have all the shit people on is kind of humorous. Of course after that when it becomes a "serious" contest to see who will be the next generic pop star, I tune out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

starvenger 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 I only watch the early eps when they're getting through the really bad singers What YNA said. I'm pretty much the opposite. I'd rather watch the performance shows than watch people vastly overrate themselves because producers decided to put them through to the Judges stage of initial auditions.

C Dubya 04 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 I didn't think that they showed enough people getting through last night. At the end they just did a quick fly-by of like 10 people. I'd rather at least see a little of the "good" singers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yuna_Firerose 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2007 crap, i can't remember her name...she was on in the first half hour...she bombed at first, but they told her to sing a Shakira song and she did a dead on impression so they let her through. Yeah, what a great message to send to viewers. She sang normally, and bombed. Then she sang Shakira and shook her ass; of course she got through. Randy's eyes weren't on her voice. It sucked that the one rocker, who went around and learned the ABBA song, didn't get in. Sure he might not have had range, but neither did the rocker last year. He showed dedication and diligence towards the career. More than others. The way they deal with contestants is also annoying. Spend an hour and 58 minutes on all the bad and horrid singers (did we really need to see that horrid girl and her "impersonation" of the Cowardly Lion THREE TIMES??) but only do 30 seconds on those that actually got through. It's just stupid. They're only encouraging the people who watch for the bad singers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
