This show is so fucking boring now--I'm not going to watch the finale. The Nova crew is just plain embarrassing.

'bout time Storm left.

I also have to agree with ?? on the forums that Toby's original is alot like Ashley Simpsons L-O-V-E. And of course we all know how hardcore Ashley is. As I told my BFS (Bitchy Friend w/ syndromes) While I wouldn't be against licking him, going to see him live would be too much. He's much to pop for this gig.

Dilana's spark is gone. I don't know, maybe living on the surface is killing her slowly (here's to hoping!) Neither of her songs had any memorable anything to them. She's gone.

Magni, I don't understand the bands love of this guy. My BFS and I always start talking during his performances. If he was that good wouldn't he hold an audience?

Lukas my love. Yes, I am a hobbit lover. I HATE the song LOAP by bon jovi, but I dug his version - I will admit however that even though I understand hobbit speak for the first part of the song I thought he was ordering from a drive-thru. Mumble much? Although Toby's song had a great hook, Lukas' song is the one that everyone at work was humming. I do believe that my boyfriend Lukas is gonna win this one. He may not be everyones choice, but he fits best with the band. Honestly - The other four are just too milque-toast.
Even the queen of the dead.

Hopefully they will let him re-arrange the crappy stuff they (SN) have been giving us on this show. If they don't their album is gonna suck as much as INXS' w/ JD does. My BFS thinks that maybe they are misdirecting us and they won't put out any of the stuff they are playing. (Again here's to hoping)

Hobbit Love Forever.

No no coppygodd, Mucho thanks to you.

Great recap as always.

I really don't get the Dilana=Undead thing. I do get the sense that whoever's reviewing this show really doesn't like it and it comes across in the review.

I mean, I don't really care for it like I did when it first came on, but I am still interested to see who wins.

Dilana lost her spark? Put down the pipeweed. She was lame in mid season but is back to embracing her undeadness instead of channeling Cyndi Lauper. Calling out the internet haters was ballsy. Must be the other part she took from that pope.

LOAP in 3/4 time would have been way cooler if a - he didn't do it and/or b - the Steward of Gondor sprayed him with oil and set him on fire.

In the end, I think it will be Lukas who will win. Toby won't win, because he will get better groupies than the rest (i.e., not in AARP). They don't need that competition. Dilana can't necromance "with the lights on." MAgni is too sane. Lukas - well Lukas can only improve the SN songs we've heard so far - by making them unintelligible.

Sturm and drang, dude? I am impressed. Was somebody paying attention in lit class?
Bad cat, Beavis! Bad cat! (I know it doesn't do any good but you gotta vent.)
And kudos to Ms Tumnus for the photoshop work.
I don't think it matters who wins this thing 'cause the band is going to suck no matter what. But I still enjoy the recaps!

whachoo talkin' about, jamilah? i love this show. and like all things i love, i also happen to love making fun of it.

at our house, it's not a good dinner until i've made the wife cry at least twice. that's how she knows i really care.

The Hobbit cannot win this.

Seriously, if you shell out big coin for concert tickets, wouldn't it be nice to understand a word or two of the lyrics?

I can't imagine listening to him grunt and mumble his way through 8 or 10 songs in a row. I would imagine blood would spontaneously flow from your ears.

Maybe that's part of Dilana's master plan.

Of course copygodd loves the show. Loves to make fun of it.

There is no way I could shell out big bucks to sit and witness the spectacle of Lukas or Dilana "perform" for an entire set. Good god!

As I said in the forums, prior to their first gig SN will make their new singer take vocal training. And since Lukas's only flaw is enunciating that will be rectified with the training he will get. Everyone else is BORING...vocal lessons can't help with that.

Good riddance to the Storm. I was tired of her discomforting awkwardness on stage.

My guess is that the band likes Magni because he genuinely has a voice. He hits the notes, and he's always strong. That's much more than can be said for Lukas of the Shire.

Of course, image is a big part of this competition, and Magni just doesn't have the self-conscious anger, melodrama, or angst to be a pseudo rocker. Lukas has the corner on that market. And also the male makeup/hair product market.

Awww, Beavis is a shweetie!

I predicted a few weeks back, not sure if it was here, that Dilana's ignorance about rock "standards" was pretty shocking given the fact that this is her, you know, profession, and limited creative abilities (i.e., crap lyrics), would be a problem for her. Though I'm not sure why they're only calling her on it now. Oh well, better late than never. I do like her energy, but there's probably a reason why we've never heard of her before.

Don't care who wins, but it's not because I bored with the show, just don't have a favourite, as they all have their strengths and weaknesses. One thing I do like about this show is that it's pretty hard to predict the boots.

Don't get all the naysayers, I think this show is a hoot. Way more entertaining tha BBAS that's fo sure.

During the results show, they gave Toby a car. He won..something. I don't remember. What I do remember is Brooke saying "we'd love to give out cars all night," but the time had come to get down to business. See, if she'd been quicker-witted, she'd have said, "....but I'm not Oprah."

On a positive note, Supernova performed a song that I actually liked for a change. So they're 1-for-3. Also, TheDave congratulated Brooke on her pregnancy, and didn't claim it was his.

Oh! Almost forgot to comment on Dilana's one-legged hopping on stage. I swear I laughed out loud. "Sing your song HOPPING! Sister!"

lol, I'm laughing again just remembering it. Jesus that was funny. She's trying to look all badass, hopping on one foot, tossing her crutches away like she's gonna tough it out. Good gravy.

And one more thing. Jason cried during Stormy's version of "Wish You Were Here." That just creeps me out. Jason gives me the oogies.

Maybe Dilana's losing her mojo because she hasn't sacrificed enough kitties to the underlord or something since the show started. I honestly thought she was going to take this thing when it started, then I thought it was going to come down to Ryan, Magni or Toby, until they kicked Ryan to the curb. I thought Ryan really rocked with his acrobatic version of "Clocks". Crap, the man started out slow, jumped around the stage, slid across the piano and started right back where he left off without missing a beat! And Jason basically accused him of showing the band up and dumped him for it. WTF dude! Not many concerts I'd pay for but that would be one of them. Oh well. Then again, I was a HUGE Mig and Marty fan last year too, so something tell me the Janet Charleton(sp?) rumor is true and the Hobbit is going to win after all even though Supernova is denying up and down that he's not. They've been praising his unintelligible ass way too much even though you can't tell a damn word he's saying.

By the way, love the photo of him showing how to swallow a mike right. LOL I had to clean my screen. That should teach me to drink and read with you guys!

The reason Storm was crying at the end of her song, and maybe Jason as well, Storm's mother died when she was young, and she was raised by her marine father and brothers. She sang that song in memory of her mother. I watched the FoxReality.com interview with Kennedy she had afterward. She also told Kennedy she's a tomboy who never grew boobs and that's why she bought bolt-ons. She said she grew boobs at 34(?) I think it was. LOL She was quite the sweetheart actually. Ryan's interview was also very sweet. If you have ITunes, or even if you don't, download ITunes, subscribe to FoxReality.com for free and watch the interview. I found it surfing for free podcasts after listened to Tim's Project Runway Podcast and wondering what other podcasts there were for free there might be that were good. I wonder how long it will be before I find TVGasm up there???? LOL

I finally figured out who Storm sounds like: Lisa Marie Presley. The same swallowing of her words.

Dilana's probably exhausted. This show has been intensely sexist, and that can wear a girl down. Supernova sucks, too, which can make it difficult to stay wired for sound and ready for rockin'.

Whatever. The old boys are going to dump her, as they're just too insecure. But she's been the only one with any serious musical talent this season.

I don't disagree that there has been a lot of questionable comments, but they pretty much all come from Tommy, and the guy is just too ridiculous (not to mention braindead) to be offensive. And believe me, I do get offended by a lot of what I see on television and advertising.

However, it's a stretch to project your complaints with the show onto Dilana. She may have a problem with it, but maybe she doesn't. When they went to Vegas, she made a point of telling Tommy she likes to party and hang with the boys, could be a ploy, or maybe that's just how she rolls. Who knows.

As for her serious musical talent, she's seriously ignorant about music, which most serious musicians make a point of being informed about, and she writes seriously idiotic lyrics about girls and boys partying with lotion and thongs. I do think she's a strong performer, but like I said, they all have their strengths and weaknesses.

"As for her serious musical talent, she's seriously ignorant about music...."

I think we need to remember that American rock isn't the only music on the planet. Dilana knows a lot, she's more versatile than most, and she's more talented than Supernova. I have to agree that she poses too much of a threat to be the chosen one.

"I really don't get the Dilana=Undead thing."

Nor do I. For all the cultural blather about individualism, most Americans are pretty intolerant of difference.

Actually I was thinking more of the two songs by The Who, she claims she's never heard. Not American, and kinda like one of the most important bands of the 60s and early 70s pretty much no matter where you lived. And even if somehow she's managed to escape hearing them, educating themselves about music is what musicians do. And Gilby's comments about the literalism of her lyrics were bang-on, and should be taken as constructive.

As for the undead stuff. The whole poing of TVgasm is to take the piss out of anyone on a reality tv show. Has nothing to do with intolerance.

P.S. You should check out some of Dilana's old videos. Surprisingly pop. She barely looks like the same person.

When Dilana was showcasing her complete non-talent for writing with Gilby, did she actually sing "Ctrl+Alt+Delete"???

What a 'tard.

Every one of them suck, and what's funny is that ALL of their originals are better than any of the crap Stupernova has played. Man, watching Jason play with them is just painful.

Sickest moment of the season was when T-Lee said, "Hey man, I got a pool too" - wtf??? Have some decency you scumbag, you let a little kid DROWN in that pool while you were doing drugs in the kitchen with the other "parents". Disgusting.
