At the computer listening to the finale of American Idol, which season I'd watched only sporadically. I personally did not care for any of the Top Five, including this year's winner, Just Sam.
As does everything nowadays, it just made me sad. It used to be a must-watch show, with contestants such as Jennifer Hudson, Kelly Clarkson, Fantasia, Phillip Phillips, and my favorite, Adam Lambert. I remember Marilyn driving Dorothy and me to meet the family at Cape Cod through the densest rainstorm ever experienced. Joe T. had written on the cabin door the names of the 2 finalists, who he called Carrie Underwear and I forget the other guy.
To my jaded self, this year's contestants were just plain dull, in voice and personality. It is true I can no longer find anything interesting, but Ryan Seacrest also seemed bored, sitting in his home, head in hand for much of the time. I guess I'll just have to wait for the release of Tiger King, the Movie. Maybe Nicholas Cage will step out of the role and Donald J. Trump can play the part.
