For the record, I can’t stand American Idol. But for whatever reason, my wife has me hooked on it this season. One thing I have noticed, the DVR is a Black family’s best friend. I say that because as you know, we have this thing where we like to talk back to the screen thinking that the people on the other side can actually hear us. The DVR allow you to pause the show, tell somebody off or give instruction, then you can just un-pause and enjoy the rest of the show. The pause button is used a lot for American Idol in our house.
Man, the people that have been trying out so far really have some problems. I mean, really, REALLY deep problems. And then, after proving to the world that they couldn’t carry a tune even if it was on a sheet of paper, THEY GET MAD at the judges!
Okay, let me hit the pause button fo’ min!!!
The other day I heard on the news that “some” (notice they never tell you who) people out there have been complaining that perhaps the judges are being too harsh on these contestants. What is more harsh: being told by a few judges that you can’t sing or being told day in and day out by folks all around the world that you suck?
This show always leaves me wondering if there is anybody out there willing to tell these po’ babies that they really need some professional help–not with singing.
Well, come to our house and we will be glad to do it!
un-pause!
