Just Plain Dull

First of all, why 50's week? Please, for the love of God, how about a week where all of the contestants have to sing songs written during their lifetimes? Or songs that weren't Top 40 material the year their parents graduated from 1st grade? I was just plain bored tonight; this is the problem with American Idol--we still have 11 contestants. Eleven? Isn't that a little overboard? If the producers can't give us some decent themes and the performers can't, you know, perform... it's just not worth it.

So let's just go ahead and get rid of a bunch of people. Ace: sings through his nose, falsetto is consistently out of tune. Kevin: horrifying lack of talent and dreadful personality. Kellie: give me a freaking break, people. Let's lose her already. Chris: obviously one of the best performers, needs to quit and join Fuel or get signed to a record contract already and leave the contest to people who'll benefit from the continued exposure. Lisa: has talent, but isn't interesting. Lose her.

See? That wasn't so hard? Now we're down to six, enough for a one-hour program, and we've eliminated the four worst performers and Chris, who has outgrown the show. Am I right people? Let's move this along.
