Hi kids, your not-so-faithful author is back with you. It’s not that I have forgotten to blog these past… MONTHS? It’s been MONTHS?!? Anyway, I have this horrible thing where I’ll just be staring at a blank screen for several minutes, then I’ll navigate away and put it off ’til later. I do it with my Star Trek RPG too (yes, I’m a nerd. I do a Trek RPG called “Federation Space”. I’m a science officer!) and it’s really something I should probably work on.
SO many things to catch up on, so let’s get started…
First thing I want to talk about is AMERICAN IDOL because it was my LIFE for the 12 weeks it was on the lot. I love working, and I love working even MORE when I’ve been there, right at the centerpoint of America’s attention, seeing stars, and hearing some GREAT (and some not-so- great) performances.
I loved this season, and was decently happy with the results, UP TO the finale. In my opinion Adam Lambert should definitely have won, having much more talent and stage presence. Kris Allen is HOT, don’t get me wrong, and I found his music OK, just not quite as talented. That being said, the results were not a surprise, and Kris needed the win more than Adam in the long run, so no big deal.
Next up on my list of stuff to 
gab about is the upfronts for the 2009-2010 broadcast season. (Does it feel weird to anyone else to type 2010? Freaks me out a little- I can’t remember living in a year without the same two digits in the middle!) Now, there’s some really specatcular stuff on the schedule for this upcoming season. At CBS, we’ve got NCIS: Los Angeles, Three Rivers, and The Good Wife that I’m looking forward to seeing, while over at ABC there’s Eastwick and Defying Gravity that I can’t wait for. Nothing takes the cake like Fox’s GLEE, however. This semi-campy dramedy had an AMAZING pilot (I’ve watched it 5 times already) and I hear the following eps are just as good. If you haven’t seen it yet, you should! Check it out here.
Ok, that’s part one of this post, there will be more. For now, keep on knocking those rocks together, guys!
