Season Seven, Season Seven Finals
David Cook saves the night on Idol

March 26, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

The cast of singers American Idol keeps billing as the best ever stumbled and bumbled through another show Tuesday night. Rather surprising considering they had the pick of singing any song from the year of their birth. It’s a good thing they saved David Cook for last, because he saved the show. And it’ll be…

After week 2: Ranking the remaining Idols

March 20, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

How many times can Kristy Lee Cook dodge the elimination bullet on American Idol? Wow, she did it again last night, meaning she’ll get another chance to show Simon she can blow him out of his socks. And viewers all over America will get to see what other songs and sayings she can mangle. Bye,…

Idol should have known better

March 19, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

Ramiele Malubay sang “I Should Have Known Better.” It fell flat. And that was pretty much the story of Tuesday night’s American Idol. Perhaps the producers should have known better than to force the contestants to perform Beatles songs two weeks in a row. Because they certainly weren’t up to matching last week’s strong performances….

After week one: Ranking the remaining Idols

March 13, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

Well, got that one wrong. Somehow, Kristy Lee Cook survived a horrendous country version of “Eight Days a Week.” Somehow, she survived Simon’s “Dolly Parton on helium” comment. Gotta give the young lady this: She took it all in stride. First, she asked for the mic, figuring she’d be in the bottom three. Then she…

A most unpleasant surprise on Idol

March 12, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

The stage was bigger. The field of contestants was smaller. And American Idol got down to the business of letting viewers select a new star Tuesday night as the show’s final round began. The biggest surprise of the night came with the final performer, and it wasn’t a pleasant surprise. The rundown … Best of…

4 more gone, ranking those who remain

March 7, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

Way to go, viewers. It took a while, but you weeded out the worst of the bunch on Thursday’s American Idol elimination show. Luke Mennard: Gone. I’ll miss his nice-guy image, but not his off-key singing. Kady Malloy: Gone. I’ll miss … nothing. Not the pout. Not the imitations of Britney. Not the singing, which…

A rocker-nurse comeback on Idol

March 6, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

Darn, just when I think I have the Idol ladies figured out, Amanda Overmyer turns in a smoldering rendition of Joan Jett’s “I Hate Myself for Loving You.” Now I still don’t think Amanda is a threat to become the Season 7 Idol. She’s too one-dimensional. At some point, Idol will come up with a…

On Idol, Noriega nauseates again

March 5, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

I can’t wait to see the final eight Idol ladies perform tonight. With spots in the final 12 on the line, I’m expecting dazzling performances. At least from everyone except Amanda Overmyer and Kady Malloy, who miraculously survived elimination last week. I have no idea what Paula Abdul was raving about at the end of…

Idol says goodbye to talented twosome

February 29, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

Well, you can forget yesterday’s Idol blog about eight worthy female singers vying for six spots in the show’s final 12. Two of those worthy young ladies — Alaina Whitaker and Alexandrea Lushington — got the boot last night. Idol judges preach to contestants all the time about the importance of selecting a song that…

Way to go, Idol gals

February 28, 2008 By Mark Franklin 0

Wow! Now that’s what American Idol is supposed to be about. One strong performance after another. Leaving you wondering just who is the best of this bunch of talented female singers. Leaving you anticipating the next show to see what these ladies can pull off next. The only problem is Idol’s format. The way the…
