Hey, Mods! Maybe it's time to start a thread for AI 10? I think some of us might like to discuss the drama ensuing over the judging situation this year. Who will be sitting at the table now that Kara is out? Will Randy stay now that everyone else is gone? I don't think it will be at all the same show without Simon. We'll probably watch just to see how it goes.

So Season number 10. At least it should be different!

Just one of many reasons I hate the idea of JLo as a judge.. baggage and exploitation of the situation. Her ex Ojani says he will audition and of course he has chosen the day where the press will be in attendance. Seems like he should be above the aga limit and of course ineligible to compet given his past relationship with a judge.. but you just know.. AI will be eating it up. I cannot deal with the article in popeater.com.. blows away my broswer but right now it is on the front page at www.popeater.com.

I read bits of the article Seamonkey - Ojani is 36-years-old.

It's official. New American Idol judges are J.Lo and Aerosmith's Steven Tyler. Record exec Jimmy Lovine will mentor. They don't plan on guest mentors. Nigel Lythgoe says the singers 'are now going to stay within their genre'

So no more theme weeks? I remember in that poll we did at the end of last season there were questions regarding how we felt about "theme" weeks, what was our favorite theme, etc.

Instead of themes like country,etc, I like when they have to pick songs from a certain year instead. Sigh-I guess J.Lo has had some hits

Oh. My. God. I am so torn! I have watched all the seasons. I love Steven Tyler. I love Randy Jackson. I absolutely detest Jennifer Lopez, and I always have. What to do, what to do......

Bic, maybe Jennifer Lopez is trying to change our minds about her. I hope so.

I think the only good thing about this year is Jimmy Iovine as a mentor. They need someone to help the contestants pick songs, not critique them after they've sung.

I thought they stayed in their genres fairly often. Guess we'll see how it works out.

Wow, finally! If it's true that the contestants won't be forced to pick songs according to themes, it will greatly benefit them. How in the world can the judges expect a Frank Sinatra song to seem "hip and current" and not cheesy, for example? I have always disliked the forced-theme format. This season should be more enjoyable for me--and easier on the show's contestants.

I had some entertainment news show on and I was only half listening, but I perked up when they started talking about AI. They said this year public voting will start at top 12. No more of this voting down from top 24 crap. I hope it's true, but I am pretty sure a lot of people will hate it if they find a fav early in the auditions.

That absolutely sucks Wilson - especially since Survivor will be starting up again on Wednesday in February.

Well, it should make for an interesting fight. looks to me like they are avoiding dancing with the stars which beat them a few nights last year.
