So, "American Idol" kicks off its 7th season this week in Minneapolis, one of the greatest music cities our nation's ever offered. And the celebrity guest judge is Jewel.
A better idea is having celebrity judges from each city in which the show makes a stop. If not for comedy alone. Can you imagine these little novice tarts being critiqued by, say, Bob Dylan- if you could even undertand his weird ramblings and mumbles.
Or Prince. Husker Du. All great musical acts from Minneapolis.
How about the Replacements? Let's hear it for someone on the judges' panel more wasted than Paula Abdul. Pick any of the Replacements who, in their prime, could barely hold their instruments, let alone play a show, due to drunkeness.
Hey, I know great televison.

I'd like to know who let Kenneth Briggs into the audition for Simon's vicious attack on the poor kid's physical appearance. The boy can't help the fact that his eyes are abnormally large and wide-open. That ain't entertainment. Dissing the egomaniacs like the tone-deaf homely plump one who called herself "The Hottness" is somewhat more acceptable.
