Idol Heroes

SportsDude:
Ok, this blog was supposed to be done before the Idol results show but it didn’t’ get done because get this, at work I was busy working L So, the theme here is tv blog. Starting off with the best show on tv “Heroes.”

On “Hereos” this week they went five years into the future and guess what there was still no flying cars! When is this going to happen? However, there was flying people so I guess that will have to do. Hiro meet future Hiro this week. If I remember right doesn’t this break the “Back To the Future” rule of not meeting your future or past self. I was absolutely expecting the world to implode at that moment, but once again I was disappointed.

The whole time throughout the show I was wondering why Nathan Petrelli was wanting to kill off the rest of the mutants/special people/heroes. By the way does anyone know the proper term for them on this show? Anyways, incase Nathan hasn’t noticed he can freaking fly. I’m pretty sure that is not normal, soooo……. Wouldn’t he have to kill himself off? Wait, no that just makes him a hypocrite. Well isn’t that just special the person that the free world elected president is a hypocrite, why don’t they just randomly pick someone out of prison.

Turns out that Nathan Petrelli is really Syler which means that Syler eventually eats that shape shifters brain. Once that was revealed everything made much more sense. Then Hiro returns back in time. Great, so they pulled a “soap opera” and absolutely nothing happened. I am worried that this will be a continuing theme on this show because the first season isn’t over and they’ve already had the save the world show. I mean really what is next “save the dolphin, save the universe?”

Second best show on tv is “American Idol.” One thing to remember this show is that it is a sport for people who don’t like sports, but if your like me and are at all competitive then you get sucked right in. (Same with all shows formatted like this but Idol does it the best.)

To start off I think that the whole combining two weeks votes is bull. What if someone came in 2nd to last the past two weeks? They wouldn’t get voted off but if the votes are combined then they would. I have been dying for a 80’s/ Hair band night on Idol but I get Bon Jovi, so I guess that is as close as I’m going to get. Turns out Bon Jovi has a lot more songs that I like than I knew. Blake’s version was AMAZING. I am convinced that he is the only contestant I would pay money to go see. Phil finally found his nitch but his eyes are too buggy to go any farther. Jordin didn’t do very good last night but she was amazing the week before so it all evened out. When will Jordin, LaKisha and Melinda start splitting votes, they are all the same singer. Hands down the best part of Tuesdays show was when Simon said he could kiss LaKisha and Ryan Seacreast got that jealous “LaKisha, you are so lucky” look. I thought he was going to race LaKisha to Simon’s lips, and Ryan would have got their first but I bet when he runs it looks like a prance.

I love recap night on Idol but I will leave this topic for a later blog. I must say that I really thought LaKisha and Chris would get voted off. Turns out I was only half right. Turns out Chris and Phil went home. Let’s be honest they had about an ice cubes chance in hell to win this.


ShopperGal:
Two of SportsDude and my favorite t.v. shows are Heroes and American Idol. We clear our schedule every week to watch them and are going to be bored this summer without them to watch.

Believe it or not, I’m the one who got SportsDude hooked on Heroes. I started watching it and couldn’t stop and eventually I made him sit down and watch it too and he got hooked. The show is always keeping us on our toes. Everytime I think I have something figured out the writers throw a kink in it.

I was annoyed at first because everyone kept dying but then they kind of stopped that but now I am worried again. It looked like Claire was going to bite the dust in Monday’s episode and I love Claire. The show just wouldn’t be the same without her. I also love Peter. He’s such a bad ass. I’m with EOnline’s Kristin Veetch that he looked even hotter with the giant scar across his face and that ain’t easy to do! I’m always looking forward to next week’s episode to see what’s going to happen next. Hopefully Hiro will save the world!

Our other favorite show is American Idol. Whose isn’t? I’ve watched this show since the end of season 1 where my beloved Kelly Clarkson was crowned the very first American Idol. I never thought I’d get SportsDude hooked on it but he’s worse than me. I was disappointed with last week’s inspirational songs. I know that’s horrible to say because they were raising money for charity but charity doesn’t keep me on the edge of my sweet. Drama, suspense, mystery does. I share Simon’s sentiments about being even more disappointed that they didn’t cut someone. P.S. I absolutely love love love Simon. I was so jealous that LaKisha got to plan one on his lips last night. Of course I have my very own lips to plant kisses on – love you SportsDude!

Here’s my biased opinion of last night’s show.
Jordin - She did bad. I love the girl but she did bad. Luckily she rocked last week so I think she’ll be safe.
Phil – He did surprising well. Trust me – I’m as shocked as the rest of you. In fact, he’s done well that last couple of weeks. I wouldn’t be all that surprised if he stuck around another day, especially since he has VoteForTheWorst behind him.
LaKisha – The old LaKisha was back but in the words of JoJo “Too little, too late.” I hate to say it because I think you’re a great singer but Bye bye LaKisha.
Blake – How many different ways can I say he rocked? Because he did. Blake is the most original contestant Idol has ever had and I realize that’s not saying much but honestly Blake is probably the most unique, original audience in the music world today.
Melinda – She was good. She’s always good. I’m with Simon in the sentiment that it’s actually quite annoying. I don’t want her to win.
Chris – He did okay. Just okay. Despite the fact that there’s rumors that he’s dating my girl Lauren Conrad (I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this girl) I’m gonna have to pick him to pack his bags and head out. Maybe now he can spend more time with LC. Word to the wise: don’t break her heart!

Who I’m picking to go: Chris and LaKisha
