    This far into the "American Idol" season, it's nice to know we can still be surprised. Look at that - James Durbin, sans flaming piano, marching band or guitar god, crooning like a vulnerable pop-rock star. And wow, Randy Jackson is arguing that we hadn't actually heard Jacob Lusk sing up until now, but now he's sung, and that's a good thing because "we like to hear you sing!" And watch Miley Cyrus pop into the frame long enough to dis Jimmy Iovine, who for once just sits there and (unhappily) takes… Full Story »

    American Idol" tackled "Songs from the Cinema" this week but the theme may as well have been Deja Vu. Between the judges' overwhelmingly positive reviews and the contestants' "just OK" performances, season 10 is becoming a weekly exercise in repetition.… Full Story »

    What a bizarre "American Idol" evening it was! Kisses were bestowed, curses were hurled, tongues were wagged, and - wait, what? It's nice to know that, 10 seasons in, the show can still surprise us. And the contestants too! Haley Reinhart bounced back. James Durbin didn't make us want to flip over to another channel and endure the comparatively less-grating stylings of Guy Fieri on "Minute to Win It." And suddenly the Scotty McCreery love fest came to a close for reasons we still can't comprehend. Yes, it was a new dawn and… Full Story »

    There are plenty of ways that "American Idol" is mixing things up and dragging the highest-rated show into the present this season. But after taking a bedazzled trip to the 1970s last week with Elton John, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame theme on Wednesday night's (April 6) performance episode was yet another example of why "Idol" is your granny's favorite show. The search for today's new star made yet another pit stop in the past, inviting the Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am in to mentor the top nine as they dug into rock's back pages. Some balladeers rocked it… Full Story »

  7. Digital Cheeseburger Junk Brain Food 'American Idol' Report Card: Stefano Langone Wins The Week

    www.digitalcheeseburger.com via @HomeBuyingCalif  &bull Apr 2, 2011

    Before we dive into this week's "American Idol" report card, we need to pause and award a special gold star to Steven Tyler, whose commentary on Wednesday night - replete with rhyming phrases, butchered metaphors and one instance of nonsensical, if oddly well-intentioned, racial profiling - keep us glued to the telly through some snooze-inducing performances. Who cares if his commendations didn't always line up with objective reality? We'd tune in any day of the week to hear the Aerosmith frontman suggest that one singer has a "sorcerer's grasp of melody" and highlight another singer's "ethnic what-it-is-ness." Yet just as… Full Story »
