Catching up on Reality
My calendar has been very busy this month, such that I'm still catching up with American Idol and Dancing with the Stars. Though I still like DWTS, I think this is it for me as regards American Idol.
DWTS had the predictable outcome of saying good bye to a spirited, serious contender in Marrissa. The finale has three strong stars left, and I'm looking forward to it.
But this week's Idol might have been the worst show in years. The talent hasn't been as strong, but the three remaining all were disappointing, quirky, and - boring! The only suspense tonight is the slim chance that David Cook might be voted off early, as sometimes happens on this show.
I still like Syesha, and what a shame to see her trip over more poor song choices when the David's basically took the night off. It was her night to shine, she did as well as the boys I think, but without the fan base, she's done tonight.
UPDATE: And she was.
