First, happy birthday,
fishanwitt! Hope you have a great day (and you start to feel better).
Secondly, happy administrative assistants day! I hope anyone in that field gets to leave early and/or gets a thank you for basically being slaves.
Yeah, so American Idol AND Veronica Mars was on last night. And, really, only one matters. So quick thoughts on AI and lots of rambling on VM.
I'm not seeing what was so horrible about about Kat. I mean, yes, I love her and am probably completely biased but you people who love Taylor or Chris or Elliott do the same thing. I thought she sounded really great and I didn't really mind her dress. It certainly was boobalicious but I don't care, I adore her. And they totally ripped her apart to get her fanbase motivated. It's stupid. AND I don't see how her singing a Whitney Houston song is like her saying that she's better than Whitney. It's a ridiculous statement and completely untrue. I don't believe Kat thinks that at all. Plus, Whitney, really? Does anyone care anymore?
Elliott rocked it. I didn't ball over it like some people but that's just me and I'm not a drunken hag. BUT he was fantastic. Suit was all stylin'. Very cool.
Picker blew. D. has a theory that you go home the week after you suck it really, really bad. It's like we give you another chance to redeem yourself and if you don't, you're gone. It's fairly accurate as to what's been happening this year. However, unlike everyone else, Pickler wasn't even in the bottom 3 last week when she should have been. So I think she'll definitely hit the seal tonight but she ain't going nowhere.
I don't know about Paris. I really just don't. I think she always sounds great in rehearsals and then she gets on stage and she does that thing she does...which works for "Fever" and whatever song that was last week that I can't remember but for "The Way We Were"? Um, no. Maybe it's because I love that song (and Kat should have totally sang it but maybe she felt like she shouldn't since she rocked the Streisand the first week). I think she's going home.
Hmm...Taylor. I think they were also being mean just to be mean. He always sounds great. There's no doubt at all but I kind of feel like he's falling into a niche, too, much like Chris and how awful, Pickler and he's not raising that proverbial bar that Paula was babbling on about with Pickler. He still rocks it out of the park, no doubt, and when he puts out an album, I will totally buy it because I love his voice. I think he might hit the seal, too, just because he hasn't.
Chris was great in rehearsals and I would have paid money to see him sing on his back. That would have been priceless! However, this is Chris and he had to Chris it up or lose his "integrity" or some bullshit nonsense. Whatev, it's Chris. I stopped caring. It sounded great but the song gives me hives. Bryan Adams? Jesus, Chris.
yay: Elliott
nay: Pickler
bottom 3: I'm having a hard time. I keep going back and forth between: Katharine, Pickler and Taylor (with Pickler going home...I think this is my fantasy), Katharine, Taylor, and Paris (with Paris going home) or any variation of the those 4 people in the bottom 3. I just don't know which seal virgin will be on it tonight. I can't decide.
going home: since I don't really think my fantasy bottom 3 will happen, Paris is going home.
Um, this may be lame of me but I already did this all with
tlace and I've just about killed myself with the caps and everything...so instead of doing all over again, I'm copying and pasting.
OMG, Tee…last night was like IT. You know I’ve always liked V/L and maybe I haven’t been squeeing as much as everyone else, but damn, last night! Yowza!
I don’t even know WHERE to begin! Seriously. Even Dave was totally into the episode! HA! Hook, line, and sinker, baby.
Maybe just get the badness out of the way? The angst of it all? The breaking my heart open with a pick-axe and laughing in my face afterwards? I am so totally shipping them for the rest of my life. They will kill me dead by the time this series is over. I have no doubt.
I knew that he had someone in the room. As soon as he opened the door and closed it a little (the tell-tale sign), I was like oh, Logan! But to have him not remember what he said? OMG!!!!!!!! I don’t know what’s worse…the Kendall or the forgetting. And Kendall!!! Why, oh why? I thought Gia or Madison. I didn’t expect it to be Kendall. Probably cause that makes everything worse.
And what is she up to? She’s killing me.
That look? Her not able to look at him and just crying and then finally letting him see what he did to her…broken, dead, cremate me. It’s over.
HOWEVER, I am sooooooooo happy about it. Is that twisted? Like when he went to kiss her, I’m saying, out loud because I’m a dork, Try and kiss her but don’t kiss her! Please don’t kiss her! You’re not supposed to kiss until next year! There’s a plan! We have a plan for you! And Dave’s like you have totally lost it. I did not disagree. So I was so happy that she ran away because that’s Veronica.
And then I was so proud of her for going to the hotel because that took a lot for her to do that and shows just how right he was and how SHE CAN’T QUIT HIM!!! Because she LOVES HIM SO MUCH IT BURNS! (Although, not burning like Chlamydia burning…which we’ll get to) and OMG the ANGST! Done right! It’s the best thing EVER. And I think I have finally fallen in love with this show. I think almost 2 full seasons and I finally LOVE IT LOVE IT. You know?
I’m dead. Along with my caps.
The rest of it? Pretty freakin’ good, too.
I have a feeling…and I’m jumping ahead a little…but I have feeling that the Goodman is going to do something so bad to Keith that Veronica is going to have to stay in Neptune and go to Hearst. Whether he ends up in jail or something that will cause her to have to stay there and fight for him. I just have this feeling. Thoughts?
I really liked Gia last night. I mean I kind of always like her…like I like Dick. In small doses (and why is that never not dirty!) I had a feeling it was Lucky because why mention him once and not again? He’s insane-o boy. And Woody molested him? You think? I mean, he was acting like maybe that could be it.
So I think maybe…just maybe, Meg felt pressured to date him from her parents after her and Duncan split and she got the VD from him and maybe, just maybe Duncan and her had a little make-up sex and he got the VD from her and then he gave it to Veronica. UNLESS, he did sleep with Kendall and her ass is totally all up in some VDs. Could baby Lilly be Lucky’s?
I didn’t like how the Mannings bailed him out and Lamb was such an ASSHOLE. And I don’t know if it’s because he’s always sort of useless and doesn’t want to help the Mars ever because he knows they’re smarter than him and that makes him jealous or what but I do know that his blatant disregard to try and figure anything out and to actually act like a lawman makes him look highly suspicious to what’s been going on in Neptune. Plus, his whole thing with the Mannings was such a great character moment and they’ve totally dropped the ball since. Me sad.
OMG, the whole Madison/Lamb thing was hysterical. I was dying. And I loved Mac and Madison in the elevator. That was interesting. And Mac/Butters forever. Totally. And where was Beav? You’d think he would be there, right?
So happy to see Dick and he was being sooo Dick and it was refreshing and needed because if they were going to tear my heart out and stomp on it and then light it on fire, I needed Dick to just be Dick.
I’m sad that Weevil didn’t crash the party in his suit and dance the night away but, I know when Weevil’s needed and when he isn’t and he just wouldn’t have fit last night. L
Do I care about Jackie/Wallace? I think she’s going to die. Maybe not by Lucky but I just have a feeling that she’s going down. And that thing she said to her dad about learning the birds and bees the hard way? Hmm…what do you think that means?
So...there you have that. And my fingers are grateful to me.
Yay, I get to leave in a half hour!
