OK, everybody, this is it. Not the Finals IT, or the Top Twelve IT, but the First Live Show IT. Will Steven Tyler be as awesome when he’s not whittled down to sound bites? Can Jennifer Lopez still be sweet while she criticizes? Will Randy Jackson, now that That British Guy is off the show, step up with useful commentary? These questions, and more (such as: Will James Durbin still wear a scarf tail?) will be answered live, because this ……………………… is American Idol. (Cue guitar solo.)
In the introductory camera pan, we see that all the guys are dressed in black or gray, with some splashes of color. Then the judges walk out, and I didn’t notice what Jennifer Lopez was wearing because I was blinded by Steven Tyler’s tight black leather pants. Hello, Steven, what is up? Then Ryan Seacrest says that only 5 guys will make it through tonight. What? What about a Top 12? He then points out the big stage, with some people sitting above it getting a great view of the tops of contestants’ heads. Oh, okay, a clarification: the People of America will vote for the top 10, and the judges will get 2 wild card choices. This will all be decided on Thursday. Suddenly it all seems too fast. I’m not ready!
