I'm recording it in case I need to fast forward through the useless fluff. I'm looking forward to Keith Urban, who may be the only judge worth listening to. IMHO.

Hope the drama with the two female judges is low and Randy isn't too "Randyish", if you know what I mean. He gets old really fast!

I'm going to watch, but I think I'll be considered more of a hostile witness this season than a willing fan....LOL

I'm just getting unpleasantly anxious thinking about how much time this show takes up. I gave up Bachelor/ette, so at least I won't have both of them to deal with.

Jimmer, if this is the only show in this section that is in season, can you please move it to the top of the list? I keep clicking on the Idol 11 area.

I feel that way almost every season Naja and then I ended up rooting for Phillip Phillips, bought his CD. I was happy with last seasons winner.

the auditions are so scripted but I am curious to see the judges. I like Keith Urban and will be curious to see how he reacts to the two women.

the girl who went to camp mariah was pretty good, all the other brief clips of people going through from NY so far, not impressed. They wont make it past hollywood week.

Wow....they are turning folks down that would have made this cut in earlier seasons. Even Randy, who's been there the whole time is rejecting good talent. I guess they have to stay competitive w/the Voice & the X-Factor. I've already watched 2 folks go home that I would have thought should have got the "yellow" ticket based on prev. yrs.

Mariah looks good. I cannot stand Nikki and she is a sight for sore eyes. I predict lower ratings for this season.

Both of these ladies sure are spoiled divas, but Mariah is a diva with a sugar coating, and Nicki is a diva with a vinegar coating.

Keith is very sweet. I find Nicki entertaining, especially her snippets at Mariah.

I did laugh at the sound effects they added to make that one guy's red pleather pants squeak....LOL

I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. My favorite was the girl who sang country and then turned around and sang Super Bass. That showed a pretty astonishing range. Great personality as well.

The judges were better than I thought they would be. Keith (not surprisingly) seems like a great guy.

I watched for 5 minutes. The two "lady" judges were terrible.
Done

I thought the lady judges were nice to the contestants and quit picking on each other, but I am not half way through the program yet. LOL

Do you think they were sound effects? The sounds were better than his voice.

Definitely a show that needs to be 'taped'. FF button will come
in very handy. Having judges who make the show all about themselves instead of about contestants has ruined American Idol.

I loved the guy with the artificial leg. The deer hunting/atv gal
snowed them all. : (
