Country week is over, and so is Siobhan Magnus's run on American Idol. As with anything, the good must comes with the bad.
Before sending the glassblower home, we were treated with a ho-hum hoedown. Viewers with decent home theaters must have heard Simon Cowell's yawns in surround sound.
After weeks of American Idol elimination shows featuring the likes of Diddy, Ke$ha, Rihanna and Usher, they have decided to trade in the Red Bull for spoonful of NyQuil.
I'm not complaining, the strobe lights and explosions were starting to get to me, but is this really what America wants to see?
Rascal Flatts have supposedly sold a gazillion records, and they performed twice on last night's show alone (the second time with the sultry Shakira), but I still don't get it. The singer waltzed around the stage like someone's awkward uncle at a Sweet 16, while the band went through the motions.

Fox's soap opera/reality series Nashville is the winner -- though not in a good way. It's the first new series of the 2007-08 season to be pulled from the primetime schedule.
Nashville debuted on September 14th and follows a group of aspiring country singers as they navigate their way through the Tennessee music city. Participants include Jamey Johnson, Matt Jenkins, Lindsey Hager, Jeff Allen, Clint Moseley, Chuck Wicks, Rachel Bradshaw, Mika Combs, and Sarah Gunsolus.
The series debuted to a disappointing 2.7 million and viewership dropped to 2.2 million the following week. As a result, Fox has pulled the show from the schedule effective immediately.
Encore airings of K-Ville will take over the Nashville slot on Friday nights for the next two weeks. After that, The Next Great American Band will take over the night with three two-hour episodes.
Fox maintains that episodes of Nashville will "be rescheduled at a later date.
