I was wondering where you two were last week, lol. You were missed! This show is begging for your comments, Mags--LOL
Congratulations on your new arrival, Yaelle!
I wondered where you were. Didn’t see you in the debate thread either and wondered. Glad to see you! :)
Congrats on your new baby! :)
I like your writing but I have to disagree. I liked the show, and the reaction in the arena was quite different to your reaction. Simon was cutting the bad ones off quickly, but then came the hokey couple from Vegas with the 80-year-old wife, and they were hideous, but so into it, that Simon let them go on for the entire song. Everyone was in tears laughing because they were butchering Unchained Melody forever. It was a hilarious moment and we all knew it would make the show. Yet on tv the mood and setting were so different it lost something.
Then toward the end of our show, the single mom came out. We had seen a lot of acts. We had heard a lot of sob stories. No one expected much from her. When she opened her mouth, she sounded as good asAretha and her voice filled the arena. Truly it blew us away. I guess it didn’t translate as well to tv, but to us in the room it was a goosebumps moment, a moment like when that country English woman sang, forgetting her name right now.
I liked the tv show too, but I will agree that allowing that man to strip was wrong. He should have been arrested for indecent exposure. I can’t believe Paula had to puke from seeing it, but it was pure ugliness that should have no part in a family show.
Thanks to you both! Looking so forward to the thread tomorrow!
Paula’s all about the drama you know. :)
Good to see you on the thread .
Appreciated your at the event summary of an actual show.
Enjoyed your posts on the Idol thread.
Congrats on the new member of your family. Best wishes for good health, and some sleep for all of you.
Uh, it is Wednesday, right?
Evening Jonny.
Let the games begin.
Yes, lol
Here. I came by the thread last night and thought, “why is there no ping?”. Duh, it’s on Wed and Thur:)
Good evening :)
Good. I need a break from that stoopid ‘Cain should apologize for not endorsing Perry during the primaries’ thread.
It about made my head explode.
Hi!!
I know, I kinda prefer the ol' Tuesday/Wednesday lineup.
Thanks for the inside info, Yaelle. It’s a shame Adele didn’t perform. Hopefully she does later in the season.
I haven’t caught up on last Thursday’s show (still on the DVR). Guess I didn’t miss much??
Or as Paula calls it, "my usual" :)
