Hah hah!

I won’t watch Jesse Watters anymore. I don’t care how good he is, he betrayed his wife and two little daughters.

What a disgusting thing to do. If I were Fox News I’d fire him.

What kind of man betrays his family like that?

Ed

Dong all right.

I am going to have to catch up on the internet replay — retro-snark to come :)

[silent_jonny]

And the dancing wasn't even that good. Katy Perry falling down was more memorable.

[silent_jonny]

Ima gonna leave my snarky comment to myself :)

I'm strepping wide around that one too, lol

There are a few things Katy wishes she could unsee, I'm sure.

[silent_jonny]

Maggie!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

[fatima]

They are still trying to find that elusive Latino idol

Hey ... that's right! Despite everything they've tried they've never had a Latino Idol*

*I'm not 100% sure about that as I self-delete all information, including who won, as soon as each season ends :)

[silent_jonny]

Aw shucks ;)

[silent_jonny]

Macy stores closing faster than Mariano Rivera.

LOL

[silent_jonny]

everyone QUIT hugging the contestants

Especially this early. Make it past the Hollywood round and then maybe the snowflakes can get a hug.

But a hug at the audition is the equivalent of a participation trophy.

[silent_jonny]

I was wrong about the schedule. The show will be on both Sunday AND Monday night's for the foreseeable future.

Two hours each night.

[silent_jonny]

Only wish I didn’t embarrass myself with so many comments! Shut up, self!

No, self! Don't listen to her!

[silent_jonny]

except for the one guy who wanted me to come to his house in Studio City to pick up the tapes... He was at least a little less persistent than Weinstein, lol, so I hustled in and out of there quickly each time.

I'm picturing some slob answering the door, wearing a hair-piece and a purposely loose bath robe.

Did you ever have to transcribe someone you couldn't understand, like Ozzy Osbourne or Bob Dylan? You could type anything you wanted :)

[silent_jonny]

Haha!

[silent_jonny]

Stay away from Katy! She is not good enough for you! Lol

Okay, okay :)

My attraction to her only goes so far. I imagine her with Russell Brand or shilling for Hillary and it's like a bucket of cold water drowns the fire.

[silent_jonny]

Lionel must like him as he looks only half Asian.

HAHAHA! We're going to have to set-up a chart of Asian levels for Lionel, like the DefCon numbers.

For example, if some kid butchers a Commodores song ...

Asian Level Samurai!

[silent_jonny]

No problem, Sir :)

This guy who gave me assigned tapes was just a little curly haired Jewish MARRIED short nebbish. Who thought he was Very important.

I don’t think I did Ozzy or Dylan. There were some I had trouble understanding. Definitely. So I would write [unintelligible] which they wanted to know so they didn’t put that part on the air. There were some people I didn’t know of, then later realized how famous they were. I think at the time my personal favorite, someone I saw a lot in concert, was Bowie. I honestly don’t remember them all. The saddest one was James Brown. He came off really really dumb and he thought he was a god, he was apparent;y told from morning til night he was the greatest singer in the world ever. It wasn’t egotistical so much as sad. I can’t explain it but he just didn’t have the best grip on his place in the universe.
