More like the the X-Files. 564658@blogcritics.org Thu, 22 Mar 2007 22:18:17 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-564196 Alessandro- Apparently, all 12 year olds and grandmothers are deaf. These people voting for Sanjaya this year voted for Chicken Little last year. Belle- Thanks! Glad you enjoy my recaps. Ann- Thanks as well! We can't give VFTW too much credit though. That's what they want to think. Jeremy- I'm not too crazy about Haley either. I didn't think she'd make Top 12. As for Sanjaya, well that's your opinion. Steve- You definitely have a different definition of "talented", but again that's your opinion. Terri- We all know how Michael Jackson turned out, right? Grandpa Idol- You are awesome. 564196@blogcritics.org Thu, 22 Mar 2007 01:03:42 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-564165 Michael Jackson, eh! Keep an eye on your children. 564165@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 23:27:38 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-564153 Haley was really bad last night. I hated her song. She really can't sing and has no talent. She should go home..... Democracy wins and will win Sanjaya will go on the tour. He has the X factor. He reminds me of Michael Jackson... cute and talented... My Vote goes for Sanjaya!!! YOU GO SANJAYA!!!!!!! 564153@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 22:50:17 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-564152 Haley and Stephanie both Suck!!! It's about time one of them goes home. As for Sanjaya he is good. I like his performance and he is talented and good looking/.Everyone talks about him all the time. Sanjaya will definately stay for few more rounds GO SANJAYA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 564152@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 22:45:54 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-564151 Sanjaya Rocks!! i think haley should go home 564151@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 22:43:15 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-564128 Boy, did you call it this week! Excellent assessments. And if it weren't for "Vote for the Worst" we would be free of Sanjaya by now. 564128@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 21:56:24 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-564103 Ahhhh, exactly why a democracy must maintain one person, one vote. I would enjoy Idol so much more if they would change the voting system. However, that's not going to happen so, I'm going to just sit back and watch. By the way, Kaonashi, your reviews of AI always seem spot on, as well as, fair and balanced. Now, if I don't catch the show I feel I can count on your review to keep me up to date. Thanks. 564103@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 20:47:54 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-564090 We'll see if the Sanjayanatics will put him through. All this syrupy he's an inspiration stuff is nonsense. Pure rubbish. What? Lakisha is not an inspiration seeing that she's a single mother? What? Melinda is not obviously "nice?" Phil who actually served his country? Are we to accept that because Sanjaya is such a nice kid that we should overlook the fact that he simply can't sing? That in this case mediocrity is acceptable? His sister is so cute borderline hot. Correct me if I'm wrong, did she not have a better voice? Speaking of that performance. Seriously, where's that Vaudeville cane when you need it? Oh, my lord, I squirmed and cried along with that girl. Awful. There is no grade for that stuff. He should have smashed the band's instruments and given the finger after that. That would have made it an 'A.' What's with Peter Noone? He was as smug as David Foster. Sorry Pete: Simon is right: it's a singing competition, mate. Well, Sanjaya may go through. No one said a democracy is perfect. 564090@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 19:59:15 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-563981 Bec- I agree with you in that Stephanie isn't improving. She's definitely a great singer, but her last few performances have been rather stale. I think she's hit a comfortable groove and is reluctant to leave it. I don't know about the team player thing though. I haven't noticed it. Grandpa Idol- Welcome to reality, away from the Sanjaya worshippers. By the way, I did mention that I think Phil will be in the Bottom 3 tonight again, so that makes us in total agreement. Yes, his voice is best in the upper range, but he has a lot of problems with the low notes. As for Sanjaya, sadly I have no doubt that he'll make the tour, but reality will kick in soon enough and he'll be eliminated. 563981@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 15:37:22 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-563969 This was the best assessment I've read to date and I'm in total agreement except that I think Phil is vulnerable. He has nothing unique that makes you remember him although his voice is not bad albeit mostly in the upper range. I can only pray that the Sanjaya fans were preoccupied with homework and did not have time to vote and save him. 563969@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 15:19:00 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/03/21/143021.php#comment-563960 I believe Stephanie should go home, not only does she not grow each week, but while other contestants are standing and cheering on the others she has been seen setting down, no team play, besides that melinda and lakisha kick some major butt!!! There awsome. 563960@blogcritics.org Wed, 21 Mar 2007 14:56:21 EDT
