I didn't see a thread for this yet. Who's watching? What do you guys think of the new judges? I usually only watch the audition part, but might check in because of Steven Tyler. Stick Out Tongue

I don't really care all that much who wins. I guess Alaina or whatever her name is. Scotty...I'm just not that into him and I'm really surprised at the huge fan base he has. He'll most likely win. He really does look like George Bush though laugh out loud
I've always said he looks like Alfred E. Neuman. Roll

I liked the performances, who else thought Carrie's legs were very tanned, must've been bad lighting, but I'm jealous of her hot legs!
For the record I like Country, but I cannot stand for some reason Carrie Underwood, I don't know why, I have no clue, maybe someone might buy me a clue EEK! But if that Laura Alana chicka had won this, I was going to vomit

We really wanted James Durbin to be up there rockin' it out with Steven Tyler tonight, as Steven said if the last two standing was James and someone else - he would sing with him Sadwalk Yes, Steven Tyler can still make the house Rock

As well as JoLo's booty apparently does have a booty call waiting when she get's home Wink5

Now back to our Winner from NC - Scotty - who crooned with Tim McGraw tonight, and the only thing missing was Scotty didn't have his own cowboy hat Mad What deep tones come from within that youngin' and imagine in years to come nod I think the best person won, we didn't need another bleach 'em out, Southern Belle - no thank you (nothing against ya'all down there in the South bounce ) Little know factoid, Scotty, with that red hair and freckles is part Puerto Rican - would ya have evah guessed that OMG I guess what I'm saying is Scotty will probably go a lot further than another stamped out look-a-like Carrie Underwood, which is what Laura Alana reminded me of, but couldn't sing nearly as well. James Durbin, come back again next year if you don't get some type of offer you really Rock

Maybe you don't like Carrie b/c she's so saturated in the media. Dontknow

Scotty's sound reminds me of Randy Travis.

Carrie is good, but not great like Reba, Patsy Cline or Loretta. The foundation of her success is built on all of the hype of a tv game show. She's an insta-star. Dontknow She ranks with the likes of Taylor Swift for me. Sure Taylor and Carrie are talented, but are they great or legend material? shake head

Iagree

There are too many others whom came up thru the ranks, working their way to get where they are, they didn't just "win" their chance to "be there" - I guess that's my issue with it Frown

As you say some maybe talented, but they are NOT legend material by any means shake head

Ya know if James would have won, I would have liked him even though I didn't think he was consistent with his performances. Reason being is that he's overcome obstacles and worked hard (harder than the other average contestants) to get where he is today. KWIM? In my mind hard work pays off. Youth today have the Veruca Salt mindset...I want it and I want it NOW! Instant gratification with little or no work/struggle.

The first year I watched Idol the TiVO cut off just as they were about to announce the winner. Annoyed So yesterday as we were out shopping my thoughts kept going to AI and I kept hoping the little bugger would do it's job correctly. We upgraded to the whole home DVR system and it's been a tad glitchy so I was wondering....

After getting things settled, I was one the couch with my Dr Pepper and butter popcorn ready to watch the show! That when the WTF moment struck. Nothing. Zip. Nada. The back DVR shows weren't showing up on the front DVR. Hubby checked it and said it wasn't working properly at all. UGH!

I got up this morning and tried it again...sans popcorn and Dr Pepper. Loved the show. heart So glad I was able to see it. So glad Scotty won. I was rooting for him from Hollywood week. Well, I was really rooting for a lot of them. laugh out loud But I have to love the boy from my home state. Yahoo!

I saw something on Scotty's face the week that James got booted. Maybe I misread it but I swear I think he might have known then he would be in the finale. I doubt he would ever say that. It's not his style. Or maybe I misread what I saw. Maybe it was sheer disbelief that James got the boot.
