Nothing to do on a Friday night... (AKA The Lone Ranger and Tonto and Bonto)

What do you do when your plans fall through on a Friday night?

You deny that playing along with National Bingo Night officially makes your life sad (even though, it really does. However, I did get Bingo. My prize? I get to be entered in a drawing! Hooray! It's a dream come true!).
You watch old episodes of The Office (The Fire, which brings up a good question, what would be your top 5 dvds on a desert island?).
And you update your blog.

As promised last time, I'm going to rehash the season finales of American Idol and Lost.

American Idol: An entertaining finale to a down year for the show. They need to do a much better job of casting next year. You never really got the sense that anyone really wanted to win. It's been proven that you can find success if you just make the top 10. In fact, Blake seemed a little relieved that he didn't win. They're gonna have to have more talented and more eager people on the show next year, or else I think the show is really going to risk becoming somewhat irrelevant by 2009 or 2010.

Lost: Wow. Just wow. Way to completely change things up. I'll go more in depth in a future post, but I'm really excited for the future of the show. This twist really worked because it wasn't a gimmick, it was just a simple shift of point of view. And that really works on a dramatic level. But this was a great finale. Full of suspense, full of emotion, just a great two hours of TV.

Kelly Clarkson: My friend Ian is, as he said, "half way in love with Kelly Clarkson." I don't blame him. She's really cute, amazing voice, can totally rock it out. I'm a little worried though. Ian has a tendency to get carried away. He's already created a life-sized replica of her, and also a giant-sized replica of her (he has a weird... fetish, i don't know, probably still longing to be an infant being nursed by his mother). Ian is a dangerous, twisted man.
Okay, everything past the words "totally rock it out" are completely false (unless Ian has some habits I don't know about). But yeah, point in case: Kelly Clarkson rocks and Ian wanted me to write about it.
