American Idol Season 10 Thoughts
So is it wrong that I think I watch more for the judges than the contestants? Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tylor are AMAZING! They really have breathed new life into this show.
I definitely am liking the clips of the contestants reacting to their critiques once they get off stage. Nice touch.
I can still do without the idiotic car commercial videos on elimination night. Bleck! They are worse than the lip synched numbers they open the shows with.
A lot of the kids have talent, I just thing some of their choices suck. Some of them are picking songs that are waaaaaaaay to old or slow. Pick up the tempo, rock and pop songs!
James Durbin is great, I REALLY want him to do a Skid Row song. I had hoped to see Adam Lambert do one when he was on, but it never happened.
Paul McDonald . . . WHY is he still here? His voice, his clothes, his moves . . . they all irritate me! The same with Scotty McDeepVoice. Yes he can sing, but all he can sing is country and it all sounds the same to me. I also am not the fan of Naima (sp?) that the judges are. I think she always sounds flat.
I have really enjoyed this season too. It doesn’t seem as scripted…it seems real!! And what is with all the swearing?!?! I think its funny, but I just never remember it happening before. I too LOVE JAMES!!!! Pia is really great…but really B O R I N G…zzzzzz!

I agree about Paul. He sounds and acts just like Rod Stewart and i don’t see how the judges can’t see that. He annoys me to no end. Also agree about Scotty. He can make any song sound country. If this was Country Star or something he would do great but it’s not. I would like to see him sing a song without making it country but I don’t think that will happen.

I really like James, but I really like Scotty too! I am a fan of country music but that’s not all I listen too. Alot of great new Country music singers have come from American Idol and I don’t think American Idol is supposed to be for any specific type of music or it would be American Pop Idol, American Rock Idol, or something of the sorts. I am glad that they do let us hear all kinds of music.

My issue with Scotty is he is very old school country, and I don’t think that will translate well with the modern audience too much. Every idol that has come out of this as a very niche artist (Taylor, Fantasia, Ruben) hasn’t done so hot on the charts.
