And then there was one
While we wait [2 hours] for the announcement of which David has won season 7, here is the in-flight entertainment:- The all-in-white Top 12 sing along with the Solid Gold, I mean So You Think You Can Dance, dancers. I imagine this is what the summer tour is mostly like.
- A nice dude/dude`duet by the Davids covering Chad Kroeger/Josey Scott's Hero. Just my opinion, one is a hero and the other is a zero.
- Insert very long Love Guru promotional bit. Mr. Meyer's please do not comment about facial or pubic hair during the show, never mind.
- Ahhh it's good to see Syesha again and oh yeah Seal wasn't bad either.
- Poor Jason Castro had to sing Hallelujah all alone :( I guess they couldn't dig up Leonard Cohen to sing with him.
- Dopey ford ad. At least they David's got new cars for doing those goofy commercials all season long.
- Top 6 girls working hard for their money with break dancers and Donna Summers. What was Donna signing exactly in the second song? Never mind she's now on to Last Dance with Syesha and it looks like this might Donna's last dance for real.
- Carly and Michael John's wrote me a letter and they don't sound bad together. Can you say duet's for those two?
- Jimmy Kimmel with a little stand up. For the record, the proper tip for valet in LA is 20 bucks, but in Sanjayas case you might want to make that a 50. PS The Simon song was very clever.
- Bottom 4 men take us back to the Summer of the 69 and then with the Davids they take us all to Heaven. Brian Adams - hey wait he's Canadian - sings some new song no one cares about [or is it abbut]. I need somebody, somebody like you.
- David Cook and ZZ Top are Sharp Dressed Men, well maybe not.
- Brooke and Gram Nash telling us beautifully how Teach our Children [well].
- Jonahs Brothers sending out an SOS for the show to get over soon. By the way, is the guy in the middle related to Sanjaya?
- A review of best of the worst this year culminating in a USC band backed crazy song which only emphasizes that 2 hours is way too long for the finale.
- One Republic with Archie reminding us it is too late to Apologize [in case he does in deed win].
- Jordan Sparks in an awful dress singing an equally awful song. One step at a time with no need to rush [except with my DVR remote].
- Gladys Knight and the Tropic Thunder boys. RDJ is classy as a pip.
- Carrie Underwood looking stunning [as always - actually this is the second year running] with her Before He Cheats prequel Last Name.
- Top 6 girls remind us we have to have Faith. Is Amanda drunk? Top 6 guys look for a Father Figure - summoning one George Michael. But first we need a little Freedom. Not sure what he is singing, although my wife loves it. I guess the top 12 already did the popular GM songs.
So after Simon apologized for his remarks about Cook, which was very big of him, we final learn that after 97.5 million votes the winner is - DAMN IT, my DVR just stopped, as if the show was over.
I had to shoot over to the net and find this guy at MTV blogging the show live to find the results. Live by the DVR, die by the DVR. At least this morning I got to see DC sing The Time Of My Life.
Congratulations to David Cook, now let's get recording.

Two hours and about an hour too long, right?
Some thoughts:
Jordin Sparks was retaining so much water or Twinkies that she looked like she might have been allergic to the crappy song she was singing and was swelling up and going into anaphylactic shock as she sang it. What a trooper.
Donna Summer gave advice backstage to the new stars to get a good accountant and save their money. She should have followed it up with the call of most baby boomers... "so you don't have to work like this when you are my age and so obviously past your prime."
Robert Downey Jr. is cool, but that is just because he can do Tony Stark and be a Pip as well. I think however that Jack Black stole the show (as usual).
Can Mike Myers retire already? He is so f*cking stale. The only funny part of that ridiculously long in-show commercial was when the RC carpet almost drove Seacrest off the stage.
The Jonas Brothers (I like to call them the JoBros) rocked the house, yo! They could sing the phone book, as Randy would say. What can I say, Disney Channel has brainwashed me.
George Michael is REALLY depressing with that song, and I know he is old, but dude, save the BluBlockers for when you are outside. I'll bet Andrew Ridgely wears cool shades and doesn't f*ck guys in public bathrooms, either.
Finally, I am so happy that Cook won. He was the better performer and I know that he will do well. Now for all of you conspiracy (LOST) nuts out there, don't you think Simon was excessively harsh on Tuesday to "rally the troops" for Cook?
Idol hit bottom last night ending with George Michael songs and then the singer himself (who looked like a vampire on drugs). How about a finale with positive role models next time? Why does American Idol have to identify itself with people who have bad morals.
Furthermore, Carrie Underwood should be renamed Carrie Underwear because that outfit was disgraceful. She needs to be ashamed of herself for prancing around naked from the waist down. If I were her father, I would have gone on stage and smacked her, then I would that white piece of material she was carrying around and wrapped her up in it like a cacoon.
Anonymous, you spelled cocoon wrong, so obviously you aren't smart and your opinion and post should be ignored. I am smart, spell correctly, and therefore my opinion should be extolled.
Just for the record, Carrie Underwood's full thigh exposure was the best thing that happened to the show since Syesha discovered the miniskirt in Week 2. Blame the perv cameraman that was down under when Carrie performed, but I kept hoping for him to go a little lower. Plus, if you listened to the lyrics of the song (not family fare mind you), it wouldn't have made sense without her slutting it up a little.
j-man,
Obviously you don't have daughters of your own.
Furthermore, you are wrong on many accounts. (Which I'm sure is normal for you!)
How could anyone pay attention to the lyrics when all the attention is on the girl's getup.
Go get your cheap thrills at a porn site.
I, however, would like to be able to watch a tv show with my family without having to worry about who's going to dress like a slut. And I don't care if the song is slutty. Maybe it shouldn't have been sung at all.
Stop and think from your brain instead from your "little head".
Think about all the little girls who watching that trash. What kind of message did Miss UnderWEAR send to them?
Do us all a favor and think before you write!
I have to agree with J on this one. She looked so hot my tv almost melted.
Anonymous:
I make plenty of mistakes, but being hot for Carrie Underwood would not be one of them.
If I did have any daughters, my advice would be to live in a trailer, dress up in lingerie, and play Nintendo DS while looking as hot as humanly possible. It works for Carrie, it works for me, and anyone who thinks different is just jealous.
Other thoughts for you:
Anyone who watches FOX with their children is a horrible parent.
Some of my best thoughts have been generated from my "little head".
Does Carrie Underwood have a porn site? If she does, I am so there!
