I have a great new promotional idea for American Idol. It’s called “Guess Paula’s Blood-Alcohol Level.” Each week, viewers would call or text their guess and all who are correct would be entered into a drawing to win a year’s supply of Jim Beam and Coke- just like Paula drinks on the show (keep in mind, this would be a normal drinker’s year supply and not a Paula Abdul year’s supply). My guess for last night’s show: .16%.
When did The Apprentice turn into “bring your kids to work day?” It was bad enough when Trump brought in season one winner Bill Rancic to substitute for George and give his “expert” business advice to the candidates. Then a couple weeks ago we were treated to the tough talk of one Ivanka Trump. This week, we got a double dose of Trump offspring when young Donald joined the board room festivities. Most of the candidates have some serious business credentials. It must be humiliating for them to have to accept criticism from Trump’s snot-nosed kids. Actually, it would be kind of fun if Trump brought in tweenie Tiffany one week just to see who finally snaps.
On the quality-television front, it appears there’s a new episode of Lost tonight. Just in time- withdrawal is starting to set in.

From what I understand the Trump kids are well educated. And they have experiance running businesses. BUT what really is amazing is Paris Hilton’s mom had a show on “teaching etiquette”. It must be pretty profound to take those lessons from Paris and mom.

I don’t know what’s American Idol real appeal. Is it ‘look, somebody got a chance to stardom. Big jiggy. Most of them are real artists, and it’s not an innocent game.
Paula Abdul? SInce when she is a “real artist”? Can she even sing now? She is a cheerleader with good TV connection. (Arsenio Hall)
And the music? American Idol music SUCKS. It’s formulaic. (Hey I got to say snotty thing about msuic. I run an audioblog)
