Tonight's CSI is so much better! Best episode I've ever seen :)

Quentin Tarantino wrote and directed this episode.
He was talking about it on a show last week.
Don't tell us what happens!

I liked Scooter Girl. I also liked Opera Girl from this year's auditions. But their singing style wasn't fitting for this kind of competition, especially Opera Girl. Simon can't stand Britney Spears. He's not looking for a pop tart, but a pop star.

BTW, are you still going to post your Cold Case thread?

Rats, I missed it! I just got home from picking up my 15 year old daughter, who just had to talk to the guy she's going with to his Jr. prom!

Hi jonny. Just poped in to say hello. I have been turning on AI during commercials from the Apprentice. I think tonight isn't even funny. It's rather boring and sad.

Vonzell had no low or middle projection range. It was all at a shout level, mostly very well in tune.

This lends itself to perhaps broadway or a lead singer in the gospel choir.

You lose the subtlety of a softer voice with a boomer like Vonzell and it would be tough for her to come up with a pop winner IMO. Pop these days has a lot of softer more relaxing voices in that class.

Even Whitney Huston has a level that is not SHOUT.

That is why many kept saying she over-sang this or that song.

I think she is a sweetie, nice girl!
I think she could have more an acting, rather than a singing career.
I hope she has a great money making opportunity. I like her a lot.

I had liked Tana alot until last week, then she disappointed me. Tonight she's not acting the most professional either.

About Vonzell, some might not agree with me, but I think she has a lot of trouble staying in tune when she sings softly. The notes come out fine when she powers them. I haven't seen ever show, but the ones I've seen - unless she is REAL familiar with the song (ie her pick), she ain't so great on the soft parts.

LOL, I know :)

I wasn't exaggerating when I said this is the best episode of CSI I've ever seen--WOW. Just when you think it's over, it's not! Tarantino keeps piling on the suspense right up until the last minutes!

Oh, keep an eye out for the late Frank Gorshin (The Riddler) in his last role. Awesome show! And it's funny, too (in a Tarantino kinda way :)

I just downloaded Kurt Nilsen (the World Idol who sounds like Bono and looks like a Hobbit)'s album. It's really good. One of the best ones is Never Easy. You can hear a clip of it and watch a part of the music video here:

He should have gotten more pub. He's really talented.

You didn't miss anything, believe me. Idol was a complete waste of time tonight. Just filler.

You got that right. If they stuck with just American Idol auditions, then it probably would've been worth watching. But who cares about Kazakhstan Idol???

Constantine was a seasoned performer. He never hit a bad note and he had great stage presence. He had a better pop voice than Bo.

I agree 100%. I thought Constantine had a far more versatile style whereas Bo is stuck in Rock and Roll heaven forever, I fear. That's the only thing wrong with the two in the finals they're both stuck in one style. Nothing wrong with that if they were picking either the American Rock and Roll Idol or the American Country

Whoever wins, AI will adapt to the winner. Bo's CD will be Rock, Carrie's will be Country.

Don't apologize for pinging us to this ep. Anything concerning Idol, interests me.

The "Worst" show was good as background music while surfing the Net. It's as entertaining as anything else on TV.

Don't worry about the ping. Most of us would have stopped in here anyway.

I love CSI but hardly ever watch because I get easily distracted by other things and miss so much. Then I'm completely lost.

That's my own fault, I always think I can do two things at once, but I can't!

Maybe, I should step away from the computer.......

Well, the contestants were all funny, and funny-looking tonight, but so were the judges.

My favorite was the stalker who told all the judges he knew where they lived (in London). When Simon told him he was terrible, he answered "But you say that to everyone".. They played Psycho stalker music, and it was a very entertaining it.

I plan to go to the AI concert. Is anyone else thinking about going or am I the only dork? :-)
