Super contrived

 

Spot on review.... I called it "Over-Produced"...

 

 

Oh... And btw... The guy who dropped his pants.... Total Set-up with the producers.... Heres the deal... If you DIDNT know he was going to do that, the first thing you do is kill his music, drop the house lights, and have security tackle his stupid ass.... Not let him go on for three and a half minutes after his cock comes out....

 

Show TOTALLY fcuking SUCKS.

We watched one show. Totally manipulated and overly edited, completely contrived and scripted. What a coincidence that all the interesting tug-at-the-heartstrings stories have fully produced mini-documentaries for each of the contestants. Addict is a single dad that hauls garbage for a living; Simon's first question - what do you do for a living?

 

Also totally agree about the rock-out-with-cock-out guy. Complete plant, completely scripted.

 

The show insults the average viewer's intelligence. Fortunately the average viewer has the IQ of a wall.

And you know what else- OK... So they have the same "Comedy" auditions that American Idol has- Some apparently mentally ill person, who allegedly thinks they can sing, who really sounds like whales humping, sings "Loving You" by Minnie Riperton, and Simon makes his usually hilarious, cutting remarks... Ok... Thats a HUGE part of the magic and draw of AI...

 

Ya know what? The remarks aren't as funny, when they're being made in front of a GIGANTIC audience who are LAUGHING at the contestant. It then enters the realm of cruelty, and feels very awkward to watch.... It goes from "A healthy dose of reality" to "Schoolyard Bully" when the that dimension of intimacy of the AI audition is replaced with very Public Humiliation.

 

Doesn't work. On any level.

Agreed man. Fully.

 

And regarding the audience... the editing team needs to do a better job. Girl hits a high note and camera cuts to audience - all of a sudden they are all standing, guys dorking out making an X with their arms. Or contestant walks out and says something amusing - shot cuts to audience, they are doubled over with raucous laughter. Seriously lol

I have thought this for years, It has been alleged that the show is fixed. Meanwhile Simon does a great job of telling you who to like, then come the knockout stages the audience pay him to tell him who they want to spend their money on.

Brain out tv but has been going for 6 years or so now.

 

This year the editing of the audience clapping and cheering at the audition stages has been ott.

I agree it does suck so far. I don't' feel as bad now for not being shown. I made the show and sang for the judges and ended being cut, but looks like they edited me out. What's even crazier is I have 5 friends who are on the show who made top 40 and further and they didn't show their auditions, which is weird because they're badass!! All about that story I guess!

  • 3 weeks later...

So.... Like a glutton for punishment, I kept watching, thinking- Its going to get better, and then Ill want to watch it, and I wont know whats going on....

 

 

It has only gotten worse.... And I mean A LOT WORSE.... I cant beleive how terrible these last two shows were.... GOD! Canned, obviously studio produced tracks, lip synched outside... And each song was a sleepy, over arranged, retread of a softastic 70's song, bu an artist of the opposite sex as the contestant...

 

What in the fcuk?

 

I am commissioning a native American shamen, to perform a rain dance in every major city with a baseball team in the playoffs in hopes the rest of the shows will be preempted by rain delays...

 

 

UNBELIEVABLY BAD!

You dodged a goddamned bullet...

 

I dont know if any of these people has a shred of talent, but from the way the producers are presenting them, the performances are embarrassing.

My wife and I did the same thing and came to the same conclusion -

 

Highly edited segments featuring representatives from every demographic lip-syncing to studio produced tracks. While it's not a ratings juggernaut it's still pulling big numbers and getting eaten up.

 

That said... we tuned out halfway to watch Bobby Flay get his ass kicked on Iron Chef America :turboalex:

I was pissed! Last night I was looking for something to watch during football commercials and on the Guide channel I see Family Guy...sweet. So I turn it on fox and what do I see but some dude singing by a pool while Simon is in a lounge chair. I felt gay for even watching. Immediately changed the channel.

I agree. The only ones I remotely like are the girl Melanie Amaro (she sang right before me), and Tora. I like that Brian Bradley rapping kid too.

OK... So last night took the cake...

 

4 spots for "groups" and the 2 "Made up" groups got in.

 

There are no acts that interest me at all in the finals. I'm done with it.
