American Idol
by
I know this blog is for sitcoms and not reality TV, but come on! Who isn’t going to be watching American Idol tonight? It’s come down to the final four! And if you aren’t watching that, then what are you going to be watching? Even the people who wont admit to watching Idol, sit on their sofa’s nervously shoveling ice cream into their faces, waiting to see who gets sent home. (Oh wait, that’s me.)
So, in keeping with the sitcom theme, let’s play a game. In the comments why don’t you tell me which of the final four could star in an existing sitcom and who would they be?

THATS TOO MUCH WORK FOR ME, SORRY.
I don’t know ANY of the people on the show American Idol, and due to my lack of imagination and creativity
I can’t imagine existing sitcoms with any other characters than the ones they already have .
Oddly enough, I CAN picture Paula Abdul on a daytime drama though, helplessly devoted to her PAIN MEDS, slurring her words and talking sideways to her illegitimate chidren.
The only reason I can imagine that is,
because of the time she was HIGH ON TV
& then she tried to tell the people of America she wasnt HIGH ON TV.

i’d like to see blake as a gibberish-spouting patient who cannot be diagnosed because he can’t stay still long enough or refrain from rapping long enough to get the necessary tests. and jd keeps imagining that blake is a member’s only wearing, moustache sporting, stone-washed parachute pants wearing throwback from the 80’s, losing the audition for Police Academy and vowing to not give up on his dream.

ANY SCRUBS EPISODE GUEST STARRING, “AMERICAN IDOLS” KILLS ME.
Thanks Brookestone, again I can imagine Paula all drugged in the background of almost every secene that J.D.’s in. After getting caught trying to lay in the unoccupied beds, Jumpsuit carries an unhinged Paula off at the end of the episode and she shouts “BUT, I PRODUCED THE BRATZ MOVIE!!!”
****I can’t do this all on my own, no I’m no superman****

she can do a little dance number and grab dr. kelso and sing out, “i like it quiet and i love to shout, but when we get together, it all works out.” and blake can be rapping in the background, “’cause opposites attract!!” while jd is attempting to get an mri done on him, all the while catching glimpses of the cartoon cat from paula’s video dance around the hospital.

Yes, and the cartoon cat from Paulas video knocks Turks beverage straight out of his hand forcing Elliot and Carla to almost kiss, because they were passing eachother in such close quarters at that exact moment.

and then turk stares at elliot and carla almost kissing while elliot breaks into paula’s song, singing “Just remember I’m forever your girl, He could promise the world
You gotta remember, I’m forever your girl”. then paula and blake start wildly dirty dancing as jd, turk, elliot and carla sing alternate lines of the song. finally, paula spits out the end line of the scene, holding us all in suspense until after the commercial break, addressing dr. kelso, she belts, “straight up now tell me, are you gonna love me forever?!” (blake in the background, again unable to sit still for the mri, “uh-uh-oh!”) and paula sends us to break with a final, “or are you just playing games?!”

Then, Dr. Kelso confuses the veiwers by deciding to shout,
“No! I am not playing games! We do not play games here at Sacred Heart Hospital!!”
-pause -
“Cause I’m a cold hearted snake”
(while removing his white jacket he smiles, touches elliot innapropriately on the chin and finishes it off with, “look into my eyes, oh, oh, I’ve been telling lies”)
He continues to sing about how he’s a lover boy at play , and that he doesnt play by rules and how he thinks elliot shouldn t play the fool.

I think Melinda could be the singer in the show like Ally McMeal. Or she could be the normal friend that makes faces when a kooky character does something stupid. This would work on any sitcom because they all have that dynamic. Chris Richardson had the best television look and personality.

I’M JUST NOT SEEING IT. THAT WILL REQUIRE SOME THOUGHT AND IM OFF TODAY. LET ME THINK ABOUT IT FOR A WHILE AND GET BACK TO YOU.

Oh hell no,
the final four my a$$. I wouldn’t care one bit if it was the final ONE or TWO. Perhaps JCH now that he is a “man” could go step up to the plate and say “NO” to any male fans of American Idol.
P.S. The only episode of American Idol I ever saw was when Kelly Clarkson won it a few years ago. So there Ms. Mel I survived the FedEx truck saga and now the American Idol saga!!! what’s next???? Bring it on MEL, I will wait patiently for another rolling on the floor laughter
