I always hated this show for it's cookie-cutter stars it produces but my wife watches it so... hey, what can I do?

lol

Kinda cool that Bo Bice (a rocker!) has made it to the final 2 though

If this wasn't posted by an Admin, I would close it down before it could start any real trouble...

Ahhh man, I hate that show lol. But the girls are hot.

**Riff Addict** · 05-19-2005, 06:27 AM

I only watched a few episodes in the beginning to see all the really bad singers that didn't make it. I'm sure the show includes the worst of these people intentionally make the show more interesting. Its pure comedy.

The actual competition does nothing for me at all. Its all about Pop and R&B and that doesn't appeal to me. I couldn't care less who wins.

My wife and daughter were really into Idol, and Survivor. Thank god for those shows, means more quality time with my guitar for me.

buzz77 · 05-19-2005, 06:42 AM

I have to admit that I watch it but atleast we have Bo to make it interesting. Nice to see something different.

DuDe no real rocker would ever do that. it just a joke on us (the public..)

my singer & JakeELee.com said Bo sung Badlands - In a Dream, last night on the show. thought that was pretty cool.

wip5150 · 05-19-2005, 11:57 AM

I watch this show every chance I get and, yes, I'm gay

**nroberts** · 05-19-2005, 12:11 PM

I didn't even bother to hook my TV up to the antenna. I just rent videos when I really want to watch something. Keeps me from wasting my time with stupid shit like this particular show

Otherwise I would probably sit there like a blob and watch the damn thing. And I have at other people's houses but I will never admit to enjoying it

I disconnected the TV like 4 years ago or something and to tell the truth I don't really miss it. I wouldn't mind getting Sci-Fi, but you have to pay $50 a month for cable just to get a couple good channels. Even on the good channels there is very little worth watching. I think I get the better deal just renting videos...except I have almost seen everything at the local rental store including the really dumn shit.

**KC_ArtRocker** · 05-19-2005, 12:36 PM

I personally like the show. Sure, it has it's crappy points (I'd like to meet that pomous, no-talent, cock-smoking Simon Cowell in a dark alley with a baseball bat, and I get kinda tired of Randy Jackson calling all the women singers "Dude" or "Dawg"), but I can't sing for jack squawt so I appreciate some of these poeple who truly have some singing talent. I WILL say that I do get kind of turned off at how the preferred singing style is this MariahCarey/Whitney Houston/Beyonce clone thing, but this year is different with Bo and Constantine, the two rockers. I personally think Bo Bice is a great all-around rock-based entertainer and I hope he ends up winning one for us rockers!

MattM · 05-19-2005, 12:53 PM

i dont watch it. my mom and my sister do.

i have to say youre right about that. i dont even watch tv hardly at all anymore. theres nothing on it whatsoever...reality tv has ruined it all.... we have cable and theres 2 channels i look at once in awhile.
i was at my friends house and he has dish network. i got the remote and went through the tv guide...i swear there was NOTHING on interesting at all...most of it was the same crap over and over. 500 channels and nothing to watch!
tv is supposed to be about fantasy not reality! its my escape from reality lol.

Just saying that it's nice to see something different on the show. And yes a real rocker would do that when they see the dollar signs!!!!! Plus if thats what he wants to do its cool with me.
