Wednesday Night TV Roundup

TV Fanatic breaks down your fave show of the night: American Idol!

American Idol: “So tonight, the mentors were revealed, and one is Andrew Lloyd Webber. Didn't Idol already do a Broadway Night? And wasn't it baaaad? Oh well, I love my musicals, so I'm down for it. What was that opening number? Snoozefest. And then last night's recaps. Seriously, after those mediocre performances, anyone, I mean, anyone could be a goner. But I’m thinking a girl will be saying, “bye, bye.” Well, the reveal is only 40 minutes away. Oh, do miss the days when we would get that news in 22 minutes. That uncomfortable seating for the bottom three for more than a half-hour is just not right! And the reveal begins… Brooke White and her newly straight hair is in the Top 10. No surprises there. But here comes a shocker! Carly Smithson’s got curls, and she’s in the bottom three! David Archeluta gets to plant his butt on the comfy couch. Michael Johns is actually sweating that he won’t make it in the Top 10. Did he look in the mirror before he left the house? He’s a hottie! He ain’t going nowhere. The Ford commercial is back, copping an old-movie feel. My future husband David Cook has directing skillz, and is in the Top 10. Ryan reveals that Kristy Lee Cook in again in the bottom three. You gotta feel for this girl. She’s been in like every single bottom three since Idol, season four. And she doesn’t even flinch when Ryan sends her to the chair. That’s right, show us we can’t break you down, girl! Ramiele Malubay surprisingly makes the Top 10. Okay, I'll concede America, but she better bring it next week. Here’s that 15-minute time killer, viewers’ call-in questions. The first gal asks why Simon spends millions on cars and none on clothes, and Simon’s cries it's an offensive question! Wuss! But the questions get interesting when a woman asks if Simon and Paula will do a sequel kiss, and Simon admits that Paula is a good kisser. Ewww. Kellie Pickler from season five makes a guest appearance. Okay, if I wasn’t convinced Kellie got a boob job before, Ryan makes sure to point out that she’s grown. Another shocker! Syesha Mercado’s in the Top 10! So we’re left with Chikezie and Amanda Overmyer and Chikizie gets to take a spot on the couch. So who’s out? Stop teasing me Ryan! The three girls huddle together -- Carly is safe! Shocker three: Kristy is safe! So Janis Joplin-like rocker Amanda is sent home. So long, gal! As a girl who also rocks extensions, I’ll miss your ever-changing black and blonde 'dos.” – TV Fanatic
