Gasmii, I love you guys so I can’t lie to you – I’ve never been an Idol fan. The closest I’ve ever come to American Idol was when the auditions were in my hometown of Omaha, Nebraska and a group of co-workers almost talked me into auditioning as a comic relief candidate. Luckily I sobered [...]

Let me say upfront that this is a long-ass ep (AI is the best at dragging shit out, followed closely by The Biggest Loser), so the recap is going to look a lot like those boring books in the Bible that are mostly just a list of names.  Sorry.  Let’s get started. Welcome to The [...]


American Idol

Oh, America. What evil lurks in the hearts of Fox Producers? Why do I have an urge to pour both cases of Coke Zero in my house down the drain…and my entire bottle of Captain directly down my throat? And why, oh why, did I just enjoy the past 2 hours of glossy tripe? I [...]

The contestants’ first night in Hollywood sparks drama, puking and back-stabbing. So, ya know, typical day in LA.

Hi, Gasmii!  I’m so excited that I get to recap the best part of AI … Hollywood Week!  We’ve been promised blood, tears, an angry mom rushing somewhere from backstage (presumably to kick Randy in the nads) and someone falling off the stage.  Bring the pain, Twink!  Actually, what I discover after watching this hour [...]

  I wonder who’s bright idea it was to hold auditions in Aspen? It doesn’t make much sense when you think about it. Aspen is small. Aspen is expensive. Aspen is a destination town, not the hub of Colorado. Sounds perfect! I blame Randy. I blame Randy for everything To justify the Aspen location, we [...]

Well it’s back! Digging up alllllllll the freaks from the nooks and crannies of Savannah, Georgia. What an extravaganza this show has become! Such pageantry! My only regret is that the freak parade was a little light this episode. I wish they would have focused on the freak-a-zoids a little more, but I guess there [...]

***NotWithoutMyTV is one of the funniest commenters/recappers on our site. Unfortunately, he has a “real job”, which interferes with his writing. We have been struggling to find a way to showcase his talents without forcing him to write ten pages of recaps, and then we figured,….WAIT. NWMTV will mock anything and everything put in front [...]
