I'm pretty sure I zoomed off to a different planet from the rest of the world because I am completely disappointed in and unimpressed with this season of Idol, and I've never felt that way. There's always been someone or a few someones worth watching for me. But while EVERYONE is singing the praises of these contestants this year, I'm shoving cotton in my ears. And I don't get it. The judges are fawning all over them, various friends praise them online each week after the performances, and some people say it's the best season they've ever seen. So why the hell am I hearing something completely different? I'm never this judgmental about this show (or most others, really). But I'm clearly hearing utter shite every time they perform. And yet, I seem to be in the minority. I'm cornfuzed. I don't even watch the results show anymore. I just wait until the next day to find out online who was voted off. Casey's been my favorite from the beginning, but even his performances are making me cringe a little. I would have loved to have seen that guy, Brett (with the big, red, frizzy hair) make it through. I've a soft spot for the underdogs.
