Ariel Dances with the American Idol

Posted 5/7/2008 on Hugging Harold Reynolds

On DWTS, Taylor and Yamaguchi were both outdanced by a one-armed Cristian de la Fuente, and I have to say, he and Cheryl really did a great job. Despite being in the middle of the pack as far as judging is concerned, it was Mario who got sent home last night. But I have to say, I am pretty damn shocked that he lasted this long. Maybe people really thought he was Chris Rock ? Last night on ...

Idol Recap 5/6

Posted 5/7/2008 on East Coast Bias

Tonight I can only assume there was a panoply of songs for the Idolists to choose from. We've heard lots of bemoaning from the Idolists in prior weeks about song choice and having trouble.

Look into the eyes of insanity at your own peril We at FOTP need to admit something right here and now so there wont be any confusion in the matter, we watch American Idol. Call it a guilty pleasure, a hypnotic attraction that we cannot combat, or maybe just out voracious love of show tunes, whatever the reason, the fact remains, we enjoy the show.
