JM was quite the show, and I couldn't peel myself away. Currently there's a show Fox is shrouding in secrecy that involves a girl picking from a bunch of guys, half of which are gay. The rumor mill is wondering if the secrecy is because the show is actually JM2. Of course, Fox won't comment. 15777@blogcritics.org Sat, 23 Aug 2003 17:51:02 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/08/22/170113.php#comment-15730 I should say "has," she isn't dead or anything 15730@blogcritics.org Fri, 22 Aug 2003 22:54:31 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/08/22/170113.php#comment-15728 She had a tremendous voice, loads of charisma and a sweet personality. I guess they were just covering their posteriors by canning her. they immediately signed to a recording deal, though, so it's not like she really lost out. She is more famous than anyone who appeared last season other than Ruben and Clay. 15728@blogcritics.org Fri, 22 Aug 2003 22:51:39 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/08/22/170113.php#comment-15727 Eric - What did you think about Frenchy Davis being cut? She had one of the best voices and I think she could have made it to at least the final four. 15727@blogcritics.org Fri, 22 Aug 2003 22:48:40 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/08/22/170113.php#comment-15726 I was totally absorbed by American Idol this season, but that's it so far, and what probably really appealed to me was the talent show aspect. 15726@blogcritics.org Fri, 22 Aug 2003 22:40:57 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2003/08/22/170113.php#comment-15723 Some reality TV has been worthwhile like the first season of The Osbournes, Joe Millionaire (how on earth are they going to pull off JM 2?) and one or two others. As far as game shows American Idol is pretty good but don't get me started on how much American Juniors sucked. 15723@blogcritics.org Fri, 22 Aug 2003 22:36:21 EDT
