    I just watched the episode about Stacey Devine, the mother of two who was killed by her evil husband in Arkansas. Are there any updates? I read an article saying a trial was to be had last fall, but there's nothing about the outcome. 

    Charles got convicted and got 30yrs.

  2. I liked Abigail and her version of "Vincent".  This is a song that needs a fair amount of finesse, and she nailed it. I look forward to seeing what she can do in the next rounds. But she needs to lose the overalls and hat ;)

  3. My biggest issue with this show tonight was the air of prosperity in the show. The original show had a weathered, dingy look. A look that felt like the depression was all around them. That didn't come through tonight. 

    Also, no Ben? And why are Zeb and Ester not living at the family house? And the girl portraying Elizabeth seems too old.

     

    With all that said, I hope the series goes forward. I like the actors, especially the new Mary Ellen. And there is enough there to build upon.

    I wonder if they'll actually be true to the original format? Probably not. OC isn't in the Law and Order style at all and the court writing on SVU these days when they actually bother with it is get the perp to confess, and Carisi gets yelled at for actually doing his job which I don't want to see prosecution get chewed out week after week (and if you bring back Cutter or McCoy they would never tolerate that shit.)

    If they change the format the show will instantly fail. People will be tuning in to see a specific type of show....anything other than the traditional format will alienate the fanbase and piss off a lot of people. Me included

    Agreed . It's dangerous for Fredrik to be driving around L.A. with the roof open & talking on his cellphone. Why did he think it was necessary to stop his car, leave the door open & jump into a pond with his suit on? It's very immature.

    KJ has been an excellent addition to the show.

    And doing all that in a $230,000 car.

  6. There's a part of me who has a problem with punishing a 12 yr old. But this isn't a situation that one can just blame on his youth. He had to know what this represented, and he did it anyway. and his parents bear some responsibilty too. But beyond leaving AI, I'm wondering if this makes him toxic in Nashville too?

  7. Some random thoughts...

    1)  Don't really know Coldplay other than Fix You.....but then again I dont know most of the artsts they cover. 

    2)   Willie needs to sing some thing other than a ballad. Something like Superstition or Do I Do by Stevie Wonder should be right in his wheelhouse.

    3)   I agree with the many who think Chayce is going to win, this despite him being the weakest singer left. And is it me or does his performances seem to all sound the same?

    4)   Is Caleb enjoying any of this? Because he sure doesn't seem like it. But its clear he has a big future ahead, even if its just as a songwriter

    5)   Casey is interesting, but I feel the themes hasn't done he any favors. I'd wish she'd get the chnce to really cut loose on a real rock song. BTW, her time with Chris showed her inexperience when she mentioned not knowing what to do with her hands

    6)   Grace has the biggest voice, but i'm having trouble seeing what kind of artist she'll be.

  8. All in all, a very good night.

    Caleb--finally did a song I liked and he was real good. Not sure why he's so popular, but he is. Go figure

    Willie--a bit of a cliche song choice, but he sung it well. Yet, I was a bit bored

    Deshawn--Nice change of the arrangement, but ultimately it was no big deal

    Casey--took a chance by singing the world's saddest song....and she pulled it off!

    Alyssa--She looked and sounded terrific. I wouldn't surprised if she gets signed by some label

    Chayce--didn't feel Baby Mine at all. But he evidently can do no wrong, so he moves on.

    Arthur--I'm sorry, he just sounds too much like John Fogerty for me. Plus, he failed to bring the emotion of that song.

    Hunter--just nothing special to me. Yet he goes on AGAIN.

    Cassandra--Most confident performance of her time on Idol. But it was time for her to go

    Grace--Big voice, good song choice. Deserved to go on

  9. I've gotta say...I was very much underwhelmed by the Comback Crew. Only ones I liked were Arthur, Makayla and Louis. And none of those 3 would stand a chance against the 9 from the current season.

  10. Well, not a great night. Some pretty good, but mostly a lot of meh.

     

    Grace--The biggest voice in the competition...and she picks a song that doesn't show it off. With that said, she was pretty good

    Ava--City of Stars wasn't a bad chice IMO, but it wasn't the zowie song she needed to stay in the competition

    Alyssa--Another good performance, but I want more from her. I thought she would win it all when I first saw her...now im not so sure.

    Chayce--picked the wrong song. I mean if he could have  done Bryan Adams songs like Cuts Like a Knife or Summer of 69 he'd have done a lot better. But he couldn't pick those so he gave us a snooze fest. 

    Hunter--frankly I didnt notice his mistake since he'd lost my attention by that point. Him beating out Ava is a travesty

    Caleb--I don;t get this kid at all. He's not a particularly good Country singer, and he picked a boring song. Why he is still around is a mystery to me.

    Casey--OTR should be banned from singing competions for over use. With that said I thought she was really good. I still want to see he rip thru Heart's Barracuda or Janis Joplin's Piece of my Heart though

    Cassandra--better this week than last. But she isn't long for the competition I'm afraid. Which is too bad since she seems to be such a nice girl. Like the kinda girl you'd like your son to date kind of nice.  Here's hoping she calms her nerves and goes out on a high.

    Madison--as others have said, she does have that pre-packaged feel to her. With that said, she was just ok

    DeShawn--I don't get him. Streisand? Really? And he didn't do Higher Ground very well the week before either.

    Beane--another show, another bit of Beane mediocrity. C-ya

    Willie--The big man can sing, there is no doubt of that. But he is kinda one style kind of guy. Frankly i'd much rather have had him take a run at Higher Ground than DeShawn.

    Very curious to see tonight's group.

  11. First, Army Girl doing Bad Girl was..interesting. Her gyrations are ineffective in a singing contest tryout. But kudos for singing it fairly well.

    Purple haired girl at the end is the real deal, prolly top 3 finalist.

    Also interesting is the judges picking up on the lack of confidence in a few of the contestants. None of the judges lack in that regard, but its nice to see them try and help those kids (especially the country boy in the black Stetson). 

    By and large I don't like the contestants singing originals. Typically they are unpolished, and weak lyrically. Ash's song to he father is a rare exception. 

    I though this was a weaker group than the other 3 editions

  12. Watching "Bounty" today. Show begins with a writer in a sleezy hotel who cant write because of loud metal music from the next room. He goes nuts and pounds on the door and discovers a dead body.

    Later upon investigating the murder, Ed calls the writer 'F. Scott FitzStupid"    LOL, I love that line

    When I see them picking people who are obviously off key and not very good at singing I come to the conclusion that they pick them because they need people to cut out as the number of participants gets less and less as the show gets to the big winner finale. There are so many good singers out there. Keep the best and pepper in the ones who won’t be winning, just filling in space for awhile.

    You are partly correct. They do need a certain number of singers to fill out the show, so they may take some that are head scratchers.

     

    With that said, we also need to remember that this is a TV show, so they need people like the Pitbull clone for comic relief/entertainment. ET also falls into that category, bu more into the freak show genre. But it is frustrating when they advance these people at the expense of people who can actually sing

  14. Sending Hunter, crying girl, and creepy ET through is bad on the face of it, but denying jingle guy and fireman Mias is a disgrace.

    Ronda has the pipes to win it all. So does Mary Jo. But MJ needs a haircut badly.

    Also liked Alanis a LOT

     

    And this show is sob story central.
