there are a lot of things about Singapore Idol that just bug the hell out of me.

the audition shows. the producers take great pride in showing the packed arena filled with hopefuls on their cattle calls. the problem is that 80% of those people have absolutely no chance in hell of getting on the show, whether they're delusional or just trying to get on TV by being the next William Hung. i can barely watch these shows any more – this week's idol had nothing but horrid auditions for one hour and twenty minutes and they recapped the good ones in less than 10 minutes.

yes, viewers eat up the bad auditions like a spoon. but on a show ostensibly about finding the best singer in the country, encouraging the fools to show up and embarrass themselves accomplishes nothing. its the worst face of reality television. and with that many bad auditioners, it's possible that the good ones just didn't get enough time in their own audition to make it through. i mean by now the producers know who are the semifinalists. they should show who they are to gain more exposures so that people can choose whom to vote already.

so these morons who think that singing like a tortured sheep will make them famous have got to go. or, more appropriately, the producers need to STOP PUTTING THEM ON THE AIR! and who actually thinks they're going to get on Idol by dressing up in costume? no one – they just want to be on TV. everyone in a costume should go home even before they get a number. oh, sure, there's always a William Hung or Mr Careles Whisper or the bruce-lee-wannabe. these need to be shown in moderation – say, twenty to thirty minutes of show. or put them in a couple of "bad audition" specials. satisfy the viewers who want to see a freakshow. is that too much to ask?

thank god for daniel ong. he's stealing the thunder from gurmit singh.

now onto the judges. laughing at people with short-tounged and have lisps. criticizing a contestant who tried to be original by saying "disrespecting the song". letting the talentless people to get through. trying to be mean but failed miserably. and giving critics that never make sense. geez. they really do need to change four of them. heck. i don't mind if they bring in a foreigner to change one of them ala malaysian idol.

enough of ranting.

now onto american idol finale result show. that was most prolly the best result show ever. wow. i'm truly impressed. and if Katharine had sang half as well during the competition as she did in finale show, she would have won hands down. not that i'm excruciatingly bitter or anything. not at all. oh well. moving on..

LOST. omg. i finished watching the first season.i just love this show. for me personally it's the most intelligent tv-show since The X-Files. i can't wait for the second season DVD to come out. they have me hooked for life.

my sis is planning to get me gilmore girls dvd from season 1 to 5. woofuckinghoo. did i mention that my sis is the greatest.

anyway. still unemployed. so i've been watching lots of tv and reading lots too. i woke up early because i'm going to my cousin's school as her guardian to take her report card. geez. i'm feeling really old already. nothing much happening in my shitty life. been meeting up with my close secondary mates. funness ensues. i'm planning to watch da vinci code and x-men III. anyone wants to date me before i watch alone, do tag me.

ps : i'm a fucking pushover. someone fucking helps me.
