Casey Abrams is Saved!

Did anyone watch the result show on American Idol last night? Reality TV Morons feels this is the best Idol season ever. Perhaps it has to do with the change in judges.

 

Watching Paula Abdul the past seasons was difficult. Whatever she was taking made her seem kookier than Kelly Bensimon, and that isn’t an easy feat. Simon seemed like a cranky old man who was bored out of his skull. The pair of them had to go. Seeing Steven Tyler just makes you go “aahhhhhhhhhhh” and watching Jennifer Lopez makes you go “ooooohhhhhhhhh”. They are a breath of fresh air. Judges aside, the talent on Idol this season is INSANE!

Last night the three people at the bottom were Thia (not so surprising – while she is a talented singer, she isn’t Idol ready yet. At the young age of 15, give her a couple years to mature & she could make it); Stephano (kind of surprising to see in the bottom three) and Casey (VERY surprising to see in the bottom three). When it came down to it, Casey was the one with the least amount of votes. SHOCKING!

Ryan gave him the dreaded mic and told him to “sing for his life”. The grizzly teddy bear, started singing “Don’t need no doctor” (although it looked like he did need a doctor), the judges cut him off. Randy interjected saying “We know who you are. We don’t need to hear you sing anymore, do we Steven?” They used a new tool for this season called a “Save”. They only had one to use and they used it on Casey.

This is where it got really good! The BLEEP button was used A LOT. Can you imagine being the dude in the control room? He was probable dropping the “F” bomb just as much. Casey kept saying “Are you kidding, are you kidding”? ((Yeah Casey, PSYCH! We were just kidding, get the eff outta here)). Wouldn’t THAT just be mean? Casey, drained of all color, stumbled over to the judges table to thank them. Honestly, I was worried for a little bit that he was going to hurl all over the judges table!

All remaining 11 contestants will be going on the American Idol tour this summer. Next week, 2 people will be going home instead of 1. Other fun events from last night’s show were a surprise appearance by Stevie Wonder who surprised Steven by singing Happy Birthday. A cake was brought out as well as a large poster of himself. ((Sheree Whitfield from Real Housewives of Atlanta would be happy – she too likes giant posters of herself)). Hulk Hogan also surprised the audience and the contestants. Crazy American Idol and their silly surprises!

What did you think of the show? Did the judges make the right decision by saving Casey?
