Jason knew he was toast (ed) last night. But I must say his goodbye video package was one of the most entertaining in memory and made me smile. He seems like a good kid even though he blew a part of his Reelin' in the Years -- it's "etched UPON my mind" -- not across....
Now the rant...
What's up with the technical side of Idol lately - miscued B roll footage - audio dropouts - poor mixes and tonight's hiss/hum on Bo's mic that Ryan was holding. And Seacrest calling for the booth to "Cue It!" instead of "Roll It!" --- but he probably was subconsciously hoping the package was indeed cued this time...
And WTF was up with tonight's special musical guests? The theme this week was the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame right? Moron Five? I thought we got rid of Blake Whatsizname last year. What's the deal? Were The Who, The Stones, Pink Floyd, Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon, Tom Petty, The Eagles, Aerosmith and Van Halen all too busy to show up and play a CLASSIC Rock and Roll Hall of Fame calibre tune? So the producers went with Moron Five??!! Bo Bice I can somewhat understand... as he has ties to Idol and has a new CD coming out. But c'mon now ... Moron Five??? Who are they sleeping with to get on the show ... Seacrest? Thankfully I have :30 skip... on the ReplayTV.
