Reid About It

American Idol ran long this week, thus putting the screws to anyone recording it through a Tivo or DVR. Adam's performance wasn't even aired inside of the hour, which would put pretty much anyone except Adam at a severe disadvantage.

Is it that hard to start cutting Paula's rambling comments off earlier on in the show, just so everyone will have time to perform? Slip her a Red Bull in the dressing room or something.

Anyway, for the full writeup including my pick for the Idol who goes home, check out my column over at Examiner.com.

By the way, if I had to choose a song from my birth year to perform on American Idol? "Lola," by the Kinks.
