The good news for him tonight? It was probably his best performance to date. The bad news? It was still ear-splittingly awful.
Gawd I can't stand that guy! It may have been his best performance but it sure as hell isn't good enough in my eyes. He has none... zero... nadda.. vocal range. lol It's like watching someone shout out their words. The sooner he's voted off the better!

Alright, after reading that crap on the Stren board I actually switched channels and watched American Idol for the first time ever. I saw the little recap where they played clips of everyone.

Holy Mother of God that was some brutally awful and horrendous stuff. I seriously did not think it was that bad. They all suck. All 10 of them are so cheesy, I was awestruck.

When that Sanjaya kid popped up on my screen I started laughing out loud. Terrible. The jihad better work, it would be great if he wins.

That is some bad TV.

After listening to Stern yesterday. It sounds like the vote is rigged on American Idol, not unlike the NHL All Star Game. The show just likes to show advertisers how many calls they get. Sounds like that Simon guy actually picks the winner. Which if true, makes the show a complete farse. Since it is supposed to be America voting for who they want to be the next American Idol.

No, it really is America voting. They've often had fan (and ratings favorites) voted off due to slacking public...and previous attempts at ballot stuffing for bad contestants to ruin the show have been effective in the past.

Nah, I don't buy that.. Stern is entertaining but I don't believe this one bit.

Last night was the first time I saw Sanjaya sing. I agree with Stern that he looks like a "pre-op tranny"! He is a terrible, terrible singer....I really hope that guy wins!

I thought his sister is hot, too bad she didn't make the show.

The jars on that one!

Doesn't it cost money to text these votes in?

It's funny and all, but who cares this much about the show? I'm surprised Stern listeners are so interested in it..

I watched a couple videos of this kid on youtube (and stumbled across the one below) and yeah, he's pretty bad. How does it work though? Does he go out there and sing every night and then get raked over the coals? Hasn't he figured it out yet? Just quit, man.


Like many other Americans, last week I tuned in to American Idol to find that Sanjaya Malakar had not been eliminated. As a result of this, I am going on a hunger strike.

EDIT: we can all see she's a little hefty. Unless it's a really good one, no jokes please.

I still havn't watched any American Idol. But the morning updates on Stern with Eric the Midget have been hilarious. Could anybody be any more ungrateful than Eric the Midgit? If this Sanjiya guy makes it to the end. I might actually watch. That is unless it coincides with an NHL playoff game.

I am a little bit surprised that the kid is still there. I saw him for the first and only time last week and he is terrible! Eric the Midget is hilarious to listen to, but yeah that guy is the most ungrateful and idiotic little bugger! With out Stern that guy is nothing, but he just doesn't get it.

Stern is just taking credit for Eric's hard work.
