So! There has been lots of TV on this week and I can barely keep up. In fact, I had to delete all the episodes of Jeopardy! I've been saving up to watch (shut up, yes, I tape Jeopardy! every day) so I could make room for the New Shit.
So, I hardly ever watch the results shows for AI because really, there are about ten million other things to watch on Thursdays, or you know, stabbing my eyeballs out might actually be more fun. I do like the group sings (mostly what a hot mess they are), but the results shows are only worth watching once they start their car commercials, and then I just rely on Jacob to tell me if they're worth youtubing or not.
ANYWAY. So I watched it. Group sing was mildly horrific, although the girls actually sounded good together. Paula's music video was... not the worst thing ever? It was somewhere in between Gimme More and Piece of Me, except that Britney's dancing in PoM was actually better than Paula's dancing, and Paula doesn't have the excuse of being drugged and crazy.
Oh wait. Nevermind.
Anyway, I was pretty happy with the results. I'd rather have had Kristy Lee Cook go home than Joanne, just because Joanne is pretty and I wanted to look at her some more, and also not have another Carrie Underwood wind-up girl wandering around the Idol stage for the next million years doing that freaky eye thing she does.
I felt vindicated that Colton got the boot, if only because they took him and Lief Garret and boring David in place of my seekrit Idol boyfriend, KYLE. Booo, Idol. Danny cried. I know exactly what color Danny is: the gay one who cries when people get voted off. I want him to stay as long as possible, just to see what gay thing he does next. Not even Nigel Lythgoe can subdue his rainbow flavor.

And then I watched America's Bitchiest Judge. I mean Dance Crew. Whatevs.
Wow, JC was in top form last night. For serious, I thought he was out to make someone cry. I think it was the combination of Mario calling him "Hitmaker JC Chasez" and reminding him, you know, of all the hits he's NOT written, followed by the big pimping machine pulling out the stops for Lil' Mama's absolutely awful 'Wheels on the Bus' song. He was sitting there thinking, "This will probably be a number one hit. Wheels on the Bus. Hey, maybe if I write something to 'Itsy Bitsy Spider', someone someday will play my songs on the radio."
In any case, he was NOT happy. He got BOOED by the crowd for telling Jabbawokeez that they need to make their transitions less boring. (Also: am I the only one who thought the Superman at the end was lame?) But everything he said to Status Quo was amazing. He was slightly poetic with his, "And it was like you ripped your hearts out and left them on the dancefloor and walked away!" Also, he called them a BAND. Oh, honey. If it makes you feel any better, we want NSYNC to get back together, too.
Also, I think he really dislikes Lil' Mama. With good reason. What the FUCK was she wearing last night? It was very sparkly. But not in a good way. I don't understand her horrible hats with the fake hair on them. DO NOT WANT. But on the other hand, the horribleness of her makes JC look normal. And he was wearing the hot band uniformish jacket last night! Mmmm.
Oh, and about the show. The skaters need to go. And that was my only thought.

LOST...I don't even know what to do with you anymore.
Last night felt pretty pointless to me right up until the end and then... WHAAAT!!?? Is Claire dead in the future?? That's the only reason I can think of for Kate taking the baby. Why would Jack not want to see him?? I thought, you know, because it was Sawyer's kid, but that kid was obviously too old to be Kate's at all, and then she called him Aaron so I assume it's baby Aaron?? Does he count as one of the Oceanic 6?
Does anyone remember how many they lied about surviving the crash, etc?

And that was all for me. Have not watched SPN yet, but I heard it was a Bella episode. Honestly, she's just so boring to me. My problem with all the secondary characters on SPN (with the exception of what's her name, Jo's Mom, and Bobby) is that I don't give a shit about them. I have no emotional connection to any of those people and they are not in any way empathetic. Even Ruby, because she's such a generic girl and there's really nothing exciting or moving about her personality.
Ellen! That was her name. Ellen is by far my favorite SPN character. Yes, more than Sam and Dean. Also, can the whole Dead-is-dying storyline be over yet? And whatever happened to the war against Hell? Because the war against Hell looks an awful lot like ssdd to me.
