1. Must have been the first time you watched it.
Every night is major sucking on American Idol.

That's the whole point.

16. Have you considered that every season they find a few losers to put on the show
just so people like you can create buzz and bitch about those lousy voices.

If it was truly showcasing the best talent they'd skip putting the hacks on the show.

19. Well these people can sing. Some just fall flat on stage.
In their auditions, they sounded good.

7. Ryan Seacrest finally blew a guy on national television?
It was only a matter of time.

13. They need to fire whoever did the arrangements last night
Simon kept saying the arrangements were bad and he wasn't being mean, he was being honest. With the exception of Danny, the last guy, everyone was off or just out and out sucked.

14. I was disappointed with the Stevie gal. I thought she would do awesome.
She was one of the worst. She and the girl who sang the Police.

15. If I'm not mistaken - American Idol has the contestants work with
"professionals" to help with their arrangements and song choices. The professional screwed up royally and the poor contestants thought they were working with a professional. I blame last night suckage on the AI staff and feel sorry for the contestants.

That Police bit was horrible and that dress she wore was awful.

17. The Police song! OMG!
Edited on Wed Feb-18-09 01:30 PM by distantearlywarning
:puke:

I think that was the worst thing I've ever seen on American Idol. It was truly horrible. It was like watching the worst beauty pageant contestant in the world butchering the talent portion of the competition.

I felt really bad for Stevie Wright, but that was a pretty lousy performance also. Simon says everything sounds like it's being done in a karaoke bar, but that Taylor Swift song she sang really did.

I think Stevie just had a bad song. In her auditions, she was good.

20. I voted for Tatiana
Overall, it was a pretty bad night. The girl who sang the Taylor Swift song was so bad, as was the one who sang the Police song. I didn't like any of the guys.

21. Locking. Not LBN.

It jumped the shark when they stopped putting Hawai'i contestants on (Jordan Segundo, Camile Velasco, Jasmine Trias). At one point it was front-page news here in the Land of Slow News Days!

edit: caps, and: But now? :boring:

23. the band screwed everyone up
i noticed from the beginning that they were off key.. especially the keyboard. it was AWFUL and probably screwed people up.

that being said, there were some horrible, horrible, HORRIBLE song choices.
