Ok .... So ...

Here's what Jacob had to say about last nights episode of Idol:

'I think tonight's Australian Idol had a definite 'end of term' feeling to it. Like, classes are coming to an end, the assignments are having their last touch ups, Marty is making excuses for why his essay is illegible and written on the smooth side of a piece of sandpaper, and all that's left to do is revise for the upcoming exams. Tonight's lesson didn't produce anything new, and it wasn't all that interesting.

Marty, with any luck, will be gone tomorrow, then it will be Carl, and then in a gripping finale we will see Matt Corby take to the stage as the 2007 Idol winner.'

At this point, he got bored and wandered off ... leaving just a draft in the folder for someone to find and take pity on and sculpt an Idol post out of. And because I am nothing if not a busybody, I found it and nominated myself that person.

Truth be told, I saw the last ten minutes of the show last night ... so, long enough to add the following observations (which may or may not be true, but rather an attempt to reverse fate):

- Movember is a horrible month. Doesn't Andrew G realise he looks sleazy enough without the porn 'mo?

- Natalie Gauchi is TERRIBLE. Simply ... terrible. And not at all gorgeous. Come on Australia, vote her off. I dare you.

- I love Marty. He stole those five second snippets at the end with that constipated foghorn voice and ... those eyebrows. *swoon* Plus anyone who says that 'light my fire' is NOT Big Band clearly needs their ears checked. I mean, The Doors had FOUR members. Four. That's more than Silverchair and Nirvana. Plus, you have to admit, that they were pretty big in that 'famous' sense, so: I say it works. Let's all band together and send some love Marty's way tonight.

Eugh. I feel so dirty. Let's hope it works.

I gots nothing else, so I'm leaving the real snark to all our fabulous commenters ...

(Sorry Jacob. Best I could do)

question: did anyone else notice what looked to be suspiciously like matt corby attempting to grow a mo? i mean, really... he can't be serious. his balls only dropped last week (as mark holden mentioned in a completely un-cringe-worhty comment).

and one last thing, GET AGGRO OFF MY TEEVEE. he sucks and i hate him.

MC & NG for the opera house... any other combination and i'm gonna boycott.

ps how the hell has carl risely made it this far? he really is mediocre at best.

I really dropped the ball this week, huh?

(Unlike Matt Corby, whose balls dropped last week, apparently)(boomtish)

I love Nat. I hate moustaches. I think Andrew G is kind of hot. I think Marty is the ugliest man alive.

Thanks for picking up the slack, Chesty. I owe you one.

I think Marty needs SLAPPING so damn hard. I'm sick of his smug, self-entitled smirk all over my TV screen.

Urgh.

Mars - Carl is appealling to the mum demographic. Or something.

I saw the Matt Mo and EW. I hate Movember.

Jacob - No problame-o. If it had been any other week I probably would have watched the whole thing.

I think Andrew G is kind of hot.

Shhhhh .....

AB - I don't know if slapping is required ....



That would involve touching him.

Meva - Heh. Stupid show believed my so very obviously fake chants of support. Who should I fall in love with next? It's a toss-up between Matt and Carl ...

Mars - Amen.

(PS. Now that he's gone I'd just like to clarify that I do not, have never and will never LIKE Marty. It was all a ploy ...)

Last night was the first episode of Australian Idol of the year that I didn't watch, and I CANNOT BELIEVE IT. I'm glad Marty is gone, but I wish I hadn't missed it. GRR, outrageous, ironic fortune.

Still - YAY!

Marty, fuck off and DIE. Or at least fade into nothingness, which you absolutely will.

Maybe ... that's WHY he was voted off?


Spooooooky.
