5/7: Jason wants out? Idol top 4 elimination show
American Idol Blog — Here’s the holding spot for tonight’s elimination show. We’ll be seeing Bo Bice and Maroon 5. Some folks think Jason Castro last night was mouthing the words “Don’t vote!” to the camera as Ryan Seacrest was giving out the numbers. I was typing frantically at the time and as usual, not watching. Some think he simply repeated the word “Vote!” Hard to tell. Go to 4:12 or so: Then again, it’s a moot point. He’s going home. Right? Right? We do not want a Daughtry or Tamyra tonight. In other “Idol” news: ...

American Idol: teeth-grindingly compulsive TV
Television & radio: TV and radio blog | guardian.co.uk — american idol contestant david cook Giving it everything ... American Idol contestant David Cook. Photograph: Mark Mainz/AP The most exciting thing to happen on The X-Factor last year was Emily being kicked off the show for her knife-wielding YouTube exploits. She'd previously been billed as the youngest-ever finalist, who had miraculously "come back from the dead" to compete. Apart from that, all we had was Niki talking about her deceased mother, Beverley whose mother abandoned her (and then died), Sharon Osbourne threatening to quit, and the most tedious winner in the show's history. It wasn't a classic. Compare and contrast with this year's American Idol. ...
