Reality Clack – The Amazing Race, American Idol, Survivor, The Bachelor, Celebrity Apprentice

Well, the CBS heavy-hitters in the reality genre returned this past week. Yes, I’m talking Survivor and The Amazing Race, not Big Brother. Last year’s winter version of BB was only due to the writers’ strike and that show continues to be a guilty pleasure of the summer. That’s just as well. When all three […]

See Jane Clack – 24’s Mole, Walter Bishop’s Lab, American Idol’s Crying Boy

The 24 mole. Got any theories on who the FBI mole is on 24? I’m thinking it’s Larry Moss. The guy has some serious stability issues, and not just because his girlfriend Renee was missing and presumed dead. I think Larry is masking a guilty conscience and that’s why he sweats so much. Dashing Bill […]

Idol’s Top 36 — really? – Open Letters

Dear Simon, Paula, Randy and Kara, Apparently your producers value weirdness more than talent.

I swear, they had to have put […]

Reality Clack – Hell’s Kitchen, The Bachelor, American Idol, Survivor

Right now The Bachelor is in full swing, American Idol has taken over the world once again, and Chef […]

Guess who made Idol’s top 36!

Isn’t it strange that for people who supposedly hate American Idol, Vote For The Worst has some of the most comprehensive information on its contestants? I would argue that they actually love the show in their own way. They can be pretty mean, but then again, so are the judges! Anyway VFTW, along with Idol […]

American Idol – What’s the point of group performances?

I can tell you the answer to that question in one word: drama. The Powers That Be at American Idol mistakenly think that makes for good TV, so they throw in this obnoxious group competition. I’m here to tell them why they’re wrong. No one wants to see the sleep-deprived divas blubber and whine. We […]

I have seen Clay Aiken at 65 …

And he is Barry Manilow. Yes, that is what struck me most about American Idol tonight (actually, it was pretty fun to see the talent pool that we missed during the hokey auditions). I’m not sure whether it’s because Barry Manilow has had way too much plastic surgery and he looks like he’s thirty, or […]
