  • another good one...

    "Great"
    By Fwirrel, Feb 03, 2008 Report Abuse
    This episode was one of the better audition episodes. Ryan said that the judges job was easy and so he sat in on one of the performers. I really wanted to see him sit through some of the bad performances, but the person he saw was good. I really liked the guy that came in and was shy and nervous. He was cute and he was singing a country song and he was singing well. The problem was that he kept forgeting the lyrics...poor guy. He eventually got through the song and he's off to hollywood. I hope he does well. Anyways, another good autition episode.moreless

    ok i love this show mostly for simon, paula , randy, and ryan. it is very entertaining to watch the try outs but honestly have some of these people looked in the mirror or listened to themselves? i mean its great but still they suck, but you cant help watch it to see all the idiots that try out to be the next idol.And then they get upset when they tell them no or if simon says something mean but if you have sen the show before you should expect it especially if you go on there looking like some freak show! and its always a plus to watch beacause ryan is hot and the rest are just funny!!moreless
