The first day in Hollywod wasn't as exciting as they usually make it out to be, but Group Day did not disappoint! Oh, my. :blink:

I was, however, sad to see Seth go home. He auditioned in Orlando and had the two kids, the older of which is Autistic. I really liked his cool, mellow vibe.

~Bo 02-16-2010 09:45 PM

I have to agree with Randy.........

This group of kids can really sing.

Does anyone know the status of the girl who claimed she was from Italy? Is she still in?

~Bo 02-24-2010 07:49 PM

Simon's tough tonight. I don't have any favorites yet. Too early.

What about last night? What girls did you like?

~Bo 02-24-2010 07:53 PM

I didn't see much of last night. I think this year's group is really good tho.

I was VERY unhappy that they let Angela Martin go AGAIN. She's improved greatly and is running out of years that she can do this. She's way better than a few of the girls they picked, I think. I think that they are trying to make the groups as diverse as possible, including musical styles as well as physical appearance, and I appreciate that, but if it comes down to true talent versus a more even color palette...come on now. She should have been included. /rant

I'm excited for the guys and for tomorrow's show too. I hope my picks go through!

So far tonight the boys are not so good...

Is it just me or is this group really young this year?

It IS harder for me to connect with most of the Top 24 this year, I admit.

Apocalipstic 02-25-2010 02:13 PM

So I have never watched the show, we are way into So You Think You Can Dance, but I thought for works sake I would watch this year.

Last night was my first viewing.

Is it always so bad? Karaoke in Nashville on any Wednesday night is better. So many of those guys could nto even sing in tune? WTheck?

The dude with the mullet? Seriously?

Are the girls better? Should we keep watching?

It's up to you two whether you continue to watch, but in the girls are two very non-Barbie types that I enjoy. One is a blond dreaded indie kind of girl. I am blanking on her first name, but she's got a beautiful baby boy and her last name is Boxingsox or something beginning with a B and ending with 'sox'. She's a really good musician (plays multiple instruments) and the other is a girl named Lilly. She's got a Lily Allen/Duffy vibe about her but she doesn't sound like a copycat....just in the similar vein of music. She plays the guitar too.

As for the boys, Andrew Garcia is wonderful. I think he was better during Hollywood week, but I sooo enjoy his vibe. He did a version of Paula's "Straight Up" during Hollywood week that was off the chain! He had balls for doing it and the talent to do it well. Love him!

I like the three you mentioned also. The guys last night were disappointing for the most part though. I think Lacey will get kicked out tonight. And I think Park will go too. The guy that was really awkward on stage has a great voice but he was painful to watch so I'm not sure about his chances.

I did like him best.

I will check out the girls and be back to discuss!

Tonight, we'll find out who is going on. I'm rather excited!

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!

Janell Wheeler, Ashley Rodriguez, Joe Munoz and Tyler Grady
were kicked off tonight

Daywalker 02-25-2010 11:12 PM

I like Lee, he's got a great Alternative sound to his voice.
:listening:

Sports a beanie pretty good too.

I liked Joe and was surprised he was kicked off. I was surprised Lacey stayed. I think she was surprised too. I think Tim Urban should have been kicked off. I will miss Tyler Grady's 70's vibe.

That's what I was looking for......pics of the 4 booted off. I don't know anybody by name yet. Too many of them.
Thanks!!!

~Bo 03-04-2010 09:24 PM

I think they got it right tonight. :thumbsup:

And I'm Ellen's number one fan, but it's not working for me having her on there.

Apparently, from posts on the site, Halley gets the boot. That, I agree with. I do like her but her performance hurt at spots to listen to.

Don't tell me who else goes, though, mkay? It's not on here yet.

~Bo 03-04-2010 09:33 PM

I couldn't tell ya if I wanted to. I can't
remember their names. :thinking:


lyric 03-04-2010 10:03 PM

Oops! Sorry about the spoiler, Gemme!

Okay, I admit that Haley's performances weren't all that great. I just love how adorable and sweet she was.

Mum is the word on the others. I wasn't even thinking about that!

No worries, there were a couple of folks who mentioned it. :)

I liked her too, but after the Sanjaya debacle, if someone repeatedly just isn't performing well....they have to go. :blink:

I'm glad Didi is still there. I realize that she didn't have the best performance but I see good things for her. I'm still totally loving Lilly and Andrew and Crystal, though. :thumbsup:

~Bo 03-10-2010 09:59 PM

For the first time ever, I don't have a favorite.....I don't have anyone who I want to vote for. :blink:

I do think Michael is cool. The guy who just had a baby.

Lynn 03-10-2010 10:21 PM

Hello, again, Idol-watchers. It's been another year.

I think Ellen is doing really well, after a rocky start. The awkwardness is gone, and I'm seeing her personal confidence. On the other hand, what kool-aide is Kara drinking? She is really odd this year. I hate how she hangs on Simon. I seriously wonder if she's worried about getting too close to Ellen. Could that be?

Love Crystal. She's the household favorite. But, Lilly and Mike are both contenders for our votes. Overall, I think the voices this year are so distinctive.

Rook 03-10-2010 11:12 PM

The chick that has a professional past shouldn't be there.....
Dreadlock girl's ok....kinda....
Ellen..hmm...I'm happy not being tarred and feathered, so..never mind...
that's..about it...
:dozey:

Which is the one with the professional past? (and I agree, she shouldn't be there)

I'm still having a problem with Ellen being there. It's like she just doesn't "fit". To me it's like it's like it's awkward.

And watching Paula trying to speak in a drug-induced haze wasn't awkward? :blink:

That was strange too, but in a different way. I liked Ellen in the beginning, but now it's like......is she really needed?

Gemme 03-11-2010 07:30 PM

It doesn't have to be Ellen (although I think she's fine), but there does need to be another female

Yes, because they need the estrogen. Kara's nice but isn't popular enough to carry the same weight that Randy and Simon do.

That's fine. When you make your selection and send them the proposition, make sure it's someone who is going to be well-liked by the public and has enough knowledge of music (over Ellen) to make the change understandable. Ellen is there to balance the nasty, so if a change is made, the replacement will have to be even cheerier and positive.

I agree that I was initially all "Huh?" about it, but now that I see how Ellen is fitting in, I think it's fine. Could it be better? Sure.

Lynn 03-11-2010 07:50 PM

So sad to see Alex go so early. I'd buy his albums today. :(

OMG...Lilly. I thought she was a contender for the top 10. What a shame.

~Bo 03-11-2010 07:55 PM

How bout Diva????

Female?.........check
Music knowledge?............check
Well-liked?........check
Positive?...........check
Cheery?..........check
Funny?...........check
Able to balance the nasty?........check
Would look damn hot sitting in that row?.......CHECK!!



There ya go. There's my selection. :goodscore:

Careful about giving results away.....the west coast people haven't seen the show yet. We don't want to ruin it for them. :shocking:
