The most entertaining audition was the "not yet admitted to the psyche ward" Paula stalker who "Snuck into her house and put on her underwear." If she was a chalkboard he would chalk her, or If she was a bathtub he would caulk her. Don't they have prescreening auditions to see if you are "t.v. worthy." This may be the season the judges need to take out restraining orders. The acknowledged stalker needed to be escorted out of the room. Then there was the social worker who sang "Sex Is Not Allowed," a song he wrote, he also seemed to be one Lincoln short of a dollar. I know Pennsylvania can represent better than this. Hello! It is the home of Benjamin Franklin and Rocky Balboa! These two are Freud's dream patients.
You know how they do the personal stories? Wouldn't it really suck if the ones that are doing it for a family member that is dying (or whatever tragedy), and they didn't make it to Hollywood?
I was hoping American Idol would be better considering all my favorite shows are in reruns due to the strikes. Fox really played it up, but it was a big disappointment. I still haven't figured out what Simon wants. Skinny or fat? Sane or insane? Good or bad? Mainstream or unique? He's fickle.
My favorite performer was the very last one on the second day in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She doesn't watch rated R movies, nor does she smoke or drink. She should be the idol just because I idolize her. Why do people have a desire to corrupt the righteous?

I missed it...I usually have to DVR it, but it conflicts with other programs I watch. Does FOX replay them online? I agree with you about Simon though he is a pain in the rear. I don't like the guy who says "dawg" all the time, he never really has constructive criticism. And well, Paula is too nice and flaky. I only really like Ryan Seacrest, and he isn't even a judge.
Although I am decidedly anti-television, I will occassionally watch American Idol. I caught the last 10 minutes last night. When that last gal came on, we all (Jared, Micah, Nathan & I) decided she must be Mormon. Wouldn't it be hilarious if 2008 is the year a Mormon wins both American Idol and the presidency? :-)
As for the "personal stories" - don't worry about them not getting sent to Hollywood. I'm sure they only take the time to do those interviews after the auditions. So if a contestant is precluded by one of those, it's pretty much a sure thing that he/she is going to make it.
Make that "preceded by."
Sigh. No more trying to type/think with a toddler crawling all over me. :-)
