I like Celebrity Rehab, but it is really intense - especially where Conway is concerned. He is bad off. I watch Intervention every week, and that's Conway.

Celebrity Rehab is too watch from the hall, even for me. But I am slightly amused by Rock of Love II and eagerly await the return of original flavor FoL.
In AI news, I think they are doing a much better job with limiting the bad auditions this year to the truly deserving, deliriously bad rather than the "he cain't help it" bad. I didn't really like anyone until the last girl tonight. The Irish girl with the tattoo artist husband who also auditioned in 2005? I might've even shed a little tear at her sad tale . . . and homegirl can flat out blow. She's awesome.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I do love Simon. But I hate Randy-- he's the one who's always laughing at the bad performances! Simon's usually just honest.

But I hate Randy
Oh, Randy and Paula are the worst. Simon just tries to shut people down. When Randy and Paula get a hold to someone clearly terrible, they try to prolong the bullshit so they can laugh at them some more . . . like how Paula asked that dreadlocked boy who just kept singing that same phrase over and over again to sing something else? Evil. And yet, they're the "nice" ones. Feh.
I was upset that they put through that 16 year old kid who sang the John Mayer song. When will they learn about teen boys and this show? John Stevens, III? Keven Covais? Sanjaya, for pity's sake? 16 year old boys don't have the chops to hang on this show.

I think that's why they put him through. Simon may not like him, but he'll be drawing an audience/voters.

I just saw this very interesting interview with Mike Rowe. It's a business magazine, so it's much more serious and in-depth as to his career, past, present, and future.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Mmm, Mike Rowe. Smart, sexy and funny.

Aww, Phil! What a cutie.
Re AI: Worst episode of Idol ever? Even the "good" people were just a step up from sucky. And nobody was even entertainingly bad. I think Charleston might've topped Seattle as worst audition spot. (And I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for Seattle because it gave us Crack Baby!)
