What a fun night on television!! I laughed lots, sang along lots, and cheered for Taylor when he won. The Puck n Pickler segments were a hoot. Loved the cowboys toward the end. Hated that they brought back the foul-mouthed female in white, even as a joke.
Congratulations, Taylor Hicks. Loved that you kept the gray all the way through the competition. A man who knows who he is.
And didn’t Carrie Underwood look beautiful and sound terrific, fresh from winning two country music awards last night.
I’m recording LOST and will have to wait to watch it until morning. Sshh. Don’t anyone tell me what happens!!
-rlh-
For the first time in my life, I picked a winner from way out there! In fact, I was so confident that I didn’t even watch last night and only the last 20 minutes tonight.
It’s been fun, huh? Congrats to Taylor and Kat both. (I still miss Lisa Tucker.)
It’s been fun reading your weekly blogs, too. See ya next year.
Here I am months later – an (American) idolator … how far I’ve come! Must admit that I have enjoyed my first AI season … maybe a bit too much – according to my wife 🙂
Yay, Taylor! My daughter and I both screamed and she jumped off the couch – so happy for him. Though I felt very sorry for him when he had to sing with Toni Braxton and she danced so suggestively. Ew.
My parents recorded Lost for me while I recorded AI for them, so today I’ll head over and trade tapes.
I hope your cousin’s daughter is doing okay – have been praying.
Yes, Carrie K, I felt the same way about Taylor’s duet. He looked pretty uncomfortable for a minute there, as if he feared there might be a wardrobe malfunction on live TV. It seemed like the camera people were a bit skittish, too.
Kat did a great job making sense of her duet with Meatloaf. He was so off-the-wall, and she compensated for him fabulously.
All in all, very happy Taylor won! 🙂
Hoorah for Taylor! I screamed when he won, but my moment of joy was short lived because we were flipping back and forth between American Idol and Lost. (what a episode there, huh?)Any way, I had picked Taylor as a fav from the start and I’m so happy that he won! I will be getting that cd.Signing Off, Ashley
