She gives a long and winding explanation of the Long and Winding Road and what it means to her.

Rofl! It is fun to read this stuff even with watching the show!

BTW, JLo’s eyes are looking baggy. Makeup didn’t do a good job on her eye makeup tonight.

Wow. I wish I had seen It. She is normally so beautiful and her only flaws are weird makeup or hair choices.

Darn..thought you meant Haley Scarnato. I was getting all excited..

5,000!!!!

Whoo-hoo!!!!

This is about the youngest group we’ve ever had. 3 or 4 are under 18. Maybe that’s why we haven’t heard a peep about the house this season.

Sam reminds me of a young Ricky Nelson. He has the same low-key vibe. Love to see him do "Travelin' Man"

I saw a clip of Keith Urban critiquing one of the guy contestants and they have office chairs and Keith was dancing seated and it’s a nice companion to the head bobbing footage. Keith was trying to show the guy to “get into it”. You gotta move, you gotta groove. I don’t even have real tv but it happened on one of the shows and I saw a clip on Roku.

I hear more and more about Roku as an alternative to cable TV.

Would like to know of anyone’s experience with Roku.

This guy at Forbes likes Roku:

Little Orphan Annie's been with us since November when she was newly hatched and orphaned. Her permanent home will be ready in April. She's such a charmer that the duck rescue lady is going to keep her instead of placing her elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Les Brown the large Muscovy boy duck has been here for three and a half years. The avian doctor luvs him - well what's not to love? We want some sunshine over here.

Ducks at my you tube channel.

Lots more choices than satellite or cable. You can't get any more on demand than Roku. You also have access to Netflix, amazon and all other platforms. There are hundreds of free channels and also subscriptions per channel for sports or whatever. I have a couple subscriptions to movie channels, a few bucks a year. You can visit www.roku.com and see what their channels are.

You just have to have a wireless router and pc to connect the Roku box by the router's antennae to it. So, I have internet and cable for the cost of just the internet access, a savings of 50 bucks.

American Idol - would have to pay for whole shows. I watch clips and that's plenty. I never see Ryan Seacrest and I don't miss him.

The Roku box and wireless router are not physically connected. They interface - a signal I guess you’d call it. I can fix it myself if I lose the signal. It fixes easily and no need to wait for a cable guy.

Was that the leggy Haley? I didn’t like her personality I think. Wasn’t she having the affair with the anal bleeding drama guy?

[Yaelle]

We have Apple TV and it seems to work pretty well. But we have dish too.

[MagUSNRET]

“Wasn’t she having the affair with the anal bleeding drama guy?”

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE the way we snarkers remember the contestants LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[floriduh voter]

Yes, it is killing cable and satellite. Last year 5 million. I believe they’re up to 15 million Rokuians at this point.

She gives a long and winding explanation of the Long and Winding Road and what it means to her. That was even more boring than the song.

I am catching up now before tonight's show and I'm cracking up by myself on the thread.

[ken5050]

Yes, that was she....ask silent_jonny, I'm still disconsolate that she didn't make it all the way..

Here's her best performance "Tell Him"

Hey, you're LIVE with us tonite..kewl..!!!
