From that article... <blockquote>What do you think when people say he is too à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“theatricalà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  for Idol? I think saying someoneà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s too musical theater is b.s.! Frankly, thatà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s offensive. Ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s the easy way out to try and find something wrong with him when thereà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s nothing wrong. It also gives a stigma about who à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Broadwayà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  people are. I mean, weà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢re not people that overly indicate and put on a show wherever we go. Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m tired of people putting the à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Broadway labelà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  on someone as if it were a bad thing.</blockquote> Amen, sista. Simon can be such a myopic ass sometimes. That "too broadway" crap has bugged me since season 2, and I wasn't even Clay fan. It was just a dumb thing to say. Also random off topic high five for the Firefly love. I *heart* Captain Tightpants 4evah, amen. Thanks for that link, soamused! From that article…

I LOVED Firefly. Such a waste of an awesome show. I remember when Family Guy was resurrected after being cancelled and they opened the 1st episode by naming every Fox show that was cancelled in the interim... it was a ridiculously long list. I'm happy the guy is gone. Whoot! I LOVED Firefly. Such a waste of an awesome show.

I hate that man so much. He's the one who was responsible for FOX canceling about 50 different shows including Reunion, Wonderfalls, Firefly and just about any other show that has ever been on FOX. Party day for me. I am currently throwing confetti all over my house because Peter Liguori got canned. I hate that man so much.

My first music love was to listen to all the Broadway and Movie musicals. Most of them still thrill me to this day. I think their is something so unique about a person who can sing and dance and act, I don't think it is easy. I really get the impression that Adam is one of those rare individuals who really attracts people and who makes them feel comfortable. I just love to listen to his interviews and the AI blips because he is so articulate. My absolute favorite....and I feel he is picking up steam every week. soamused, THANKS
