Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Erin Willett did, unless you mean annoying Erin

Yep, I meant the other Erin, not Willett.

Tony rubbed me the wrong way, for reasons I can't quite pinpoint. He just seemed like a bit of an ass, and the other people didn't.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Let me give you an example: all the other final 4 seemed quite generous in having 3 or so other people up there singing with them in their "final song." Tony only had one person? ONE?

What's that about?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

oh, and all the others had other contestants saying: "I love you like a brother", "we are siblings from another mother", shit like that.

Not one of them said this about Tony.

Because books.

I don't pay a lot of attention, except when they're actually performing, so I missed a lot of that, I guess. I did notice that Christina seemed to hate him.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

So, so much. The Christina hate was a gorgeous thing this season. She simply would not let it go and never let an opportunity pass to get in a dig at Tony. They both were so petty about the whole thing all season, but I adore her and I am so cool on all things Tony Lucca, so I was Team X-Tina all the way.

Is that the one that was on Team Cee Lo? I think she's the one who made a lot of comments, after she was voted off, blaming him for being a bad coach and being the reason she lost.

ETA: I was a big Tony fan before the show. Now, not so much. The Britney cover was funny but things devolved from there and I kinda despise all three of them (Adam, Tony, Christina) now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Was this on Twitter? I may need to go look for them--I could use a laugh
