American Idol (2013) - Season 12

Actually, if you look back a "wee" bit father, we've had about 5 of the same kinds of singers win the competition. You're right about that though Coyote.

Season 7 - David Cook (2008)
Season 8 - Kris Allen (2009)
Season 9 - Lee DeWyze (2010)
Season 10 - Scotty McCreery (2011)
Season 11 - Phillip Phillips (2012)

And they're all symbolized by the AI meme that spreads around, known as the "White Guy With Guitar". Lots of people, I bet, are believing it'll happen a sixth time this year. Here's hoping we get a girl winner though.

Also, if you watched the opening theme, you could see in the part where the showed 3 of the Idol winners, it was Scotty (left), Phillip (center) and Kris (right). Lee DeWyze won the year after Kris, but wasn't put in his place because of how underwhelming he performed. More/less, Kris was a bit more popular. (That's just what I'm observing from AI discussions).

Yeah see what I'm saying, it's enough already, it wouldn't be so bad if they weren't all so boring, David was ok though.

I noticed that too, but it didn't surprise me.

If it happens again this time, I'm done with AI.

Also, notice how the female's have gone on to make the most fame and fortune.

its up to the voters.
and imo, its not really about winning, its about exposure.
after all some of the most popular people who were on the show didnt win.

Well that's true too, but you also have to think about the huge amount of young female fans who flood the voting. It's going to be tough.

That's very true, the most talented doesn't always win.

I'm only watching for Nicki and Mariah.

I love Mariah, the diva character makes the series. Nicki is so much better than I expected, I think I'm starting to warm up to her? She's so sweet.

Got to catch up on the last hour last night; the girl who covered Super Bass was SUPER. I really hope she makes it far; she could be a finalist. Tonight is gonna be insane; Chicago, bring it on.

LOL that opening. Come on you guys, that was a little disappointing. Talk about awkwardness.

The blonde girl, Mackenzie, at the start of the show tonight isn't all too bad; she's cute and precious. Good voice too, pretty sweet and softening. But she's gotta impress me more if she's going to advance; gotta be a singer that I'm gonna remember.

Oh man, watchign what's coming up in the next 2 hours, it's going to be... something. xD

I missed the intro but my bro told me about it.
That guy at the end was pretty good. And what about the high fire performer?

Lazaro, the guy with the stuttering problem, is already my idol on the show. I have had the same problem all my life, and we've both felt like loners. If I knew him as a kid, I would have been his friend. It broke my heart to hear him say he had no friends, nor would anyone want to hang out with him. That's sad. :( I hope he makes it far, he's got star quality, if not, a chance to make it to the final rounds.

Yassss sis, stan for the true queen of pop.

I liked tonight's episode. My favorite audition was Kez Ban's; she was bizarre, but she had a very soulful voice. Like Adele's, but not as overpowering. She was real and I loved it.

I don't mind a little strange as long as you don't rub it in my face. Kez Ban is an example of the "good strange"

She is my favorite too. She was really good and what the show needs.

Niccki is better than I expected. When they called her on, I was about to stop watching. Good thing I didn't give up.

The competition seems to be actually good (better than normal) this year. I haven't liked so many people in the first two episodes since season 6.

Along with Jonny Keyser coming back, did anyone else notice that Colton Dixon's sister came back to audition? Colton was the Top 7 finalist I believe, from last year. His sister, Schyler Dixon, got eliminated during Vegas Week last year, but now she made it through again this year.
