now i normally only watch the beginning of the series cause its funny, and then maybe the last couple of episodes but after tonight i dont think i will bother at all. To me i am finding the judges really cruel... and the audiences too, all that booing while the judges are talking... grrr. and tonight that guy who was put thru to the wildcard didnt even get a chance to practice, just thrown in the deep end... grrrrr.

They have a programme over here called X Factor and some of the things they say are just horrid- I can't ever see how it would be ok to speak like that to another person! I can't really talk about the whole 'reality TV dumbing down the nation' thing as I will probably still be tuning in next week...

I haven't watched any of NZ Idol this time around...I'm sorry but I can't really see what a radio DJ who says he knows nothing and a one hit wonder girl have to offer in the way of expert judging.

I also got sick of how cruel they could be to people.

At least it means it's a good time to jump on Oh Baby instead!

The thing I don't like, is that they aren't being consturctive at all - it's not like "you need to move around a bit more", they'll say "you looked stupid just standing there". I don't mind the criticism, but there is a way to say it so it is helpful, not just mean.

Jennz, my sister's flatmate love that X factor, they were singing along when she rang me yesterday morning (so Sunday night your time). Have to say I don't like the new judges - Stables really doesn't have the "it thing" to be a judge, he took over from Paul who was a music mananger he knew what he was talking about. Jacqui was lovely but had her reasons to leave but so can't stand that true bliss chicky.

Megan is just awful. And what does she know? Nothing! Stables seems to have a list of comments (aka insults) that he reads from, whether it relates to the performance or not. Frankie - well I always felt he was the weakest judge, sad that he is now the strongest!

I am actually enjoying some of the performances this year though. ANd I like to complain about it, so that gives me a reason to watch.

Thought having to sing the same song for the wildcard was stupid.

Yeah I hate the new judges Megan thinks shes so great but shes nothing. She was so mean to Ashlee I think she was jealous of her. The wildcards should of got to sing another song and there should of been a few more.

Personally, I think Ashlee is a pretty poor singer anyway. She is okay, but is undeveloped. I'd say she needs lessons and then come back in a few years time.

I think the judges suck, surely there must have been better qualified people out there. That stables just needs to grow up, he's not funny at all and well where is True Bliss now, just goes to show she doesnt know anything about the industry. Its funny watching little old nz idol compared to Rockstar Supernova, they are all good performers and its fun to watch, nz idol seems so ametur (sp) compared.

< language=> i totally agree stables should not even be a judge listen to his radio show its shocking!! As for megan she does have more industry experience over stables but as previuosly said he was in true bliss but when the band broke up if she was so wonderful then why did she not go out on her own? I so like Jo better she was the best!! Megan is now only riding on her famous husbands coat tails!!

I think you'll find that they all would of practised as who ever made it through had to sing again.

Anyway.... he made into the final 10 so he didnt do too badly!


Did anyone read the magazine article about stables having the stroke right after the show?

OK so must admit to being secretly in love with Frankie Stevens But Maya's godmother told Willie he looks like FRankie Stevens, and his head grew about 4 sizes lol...

Anyways, did anyone else pick up last night that Frankie and Stables don't like Megan and she doesn't like them? IMO that was more entertaining than the performances...

Oh and I listen to Stables every afternoon on my way to pick up Maya from preschool. The guy is crude and nasty and neanderthal - but sooooooo funny!

I llike Kali best so far, with Matt a close second. Indira is good but you can't understand what she is saying (except for Freedom!), Becks was good, I just don't like her voice.

Aslee should be first to go - she is just too young to cope with the show.

Yeah Emma, you totally get that the boys think as *highly* of Megan as I do!

Im boycotting Idol from now on - the MC from my wedding is Cams dad - and we all love his singing (we even played one of his songs for his dad at the wedding to thank him)....Cam has won so many awards including the golden guitars etc, sung with Topp twins at Tamworth, in shows etc ...and THEN the judges chose his song, told them how to arrange it and literally picked him to pieces saying how bad it was - and Frankie told him not to over perform, so he didnt, and then Frankie told him he hated country music - so Cam hasnt sung any country (only one of his abilities) and then the poodle comment was sooo unecessary...when Cam didnt get through I couldnt beleive it - he is so much more talented than some who did and he did all the judges wanted!
And then to read that becs is one of the Mermaids - I mean they are a professional singer group AND one of the members is Jo Cotton from True Bliss....anyone smell anything BAD!!!!
Im over idol - I was hoping it would go for greater things this year (and not just Cam) but they will have another flop on their hands....UGH!

I thought Cam was pretty good in the audtions, but I have to admit that I didn't like him as much on the night. I totally disagreed with the dumb comments he got. Do you mean that they chose the songs that the idols sang in the rounds for auditions, or in the 3 knockout episodes to get the top ten? If they do chose the songs then they are so wrong with all their comments about song choice!

I can't believe that about Becks - that seems totally dodgy. But I think their rule is to do with recording and a contract so she probably hasn't done anything wrong. But it would also explain my problem with her - I find the Mermaids group a little over theatrical in their approach to music, a little OTT and I think that is coming through in what I see and hear from her. (I knew she was in a band with that Wiremu guy, I didn't realise mermaids as well).
