Pinoy Drama Anthologies
Thursday, 03 July 2008
 

 

Hold your horses, I am not trying to add fuel to the fire which is the network war you wish would just finally stop. But just for a respite, I’d like to write something about Pinoy Dream Academy; which is the so-called rival of Pinoy Idol.

 

I really don’t watch the PDA as much as I really don’t watch Pinoy Idol Extra. As much as possible, I just catch the “gala nights” of both supposed “talent” shows. I’ve only seen the first gala night of PDA and I think that they hit the jackpot with Liezel/Liezl, the soul - girl from Dubai. Van is also an instant – “It” boy – he’s got the looks and a pretty decent voice, with cool song choices. Of course, there are also some misses. I just won’t name one of them, because I already met him a couple of times, and he’s really a good kid, though, not really a kid anymore. (That’s like a “gigantic” hint already!)

 

I also thought that Ross got a great potential. He’s got that rocker demeanor without trying too hard and he’s got a clear voice. But his PDA journey ended with the dramatics that could outdo “Magdusa Ka” or any afternoon soap, for that matter. And the Uma-lookalike appeared to follow suit, even trying to outcry him over his dilemma. The exit of Ross sorta made viewers confused as to why after making it “inside”, he decided to leave. He kinda got homesick, insisted that he “served his purpose” (which is not really clear-cut), and confessed that he couldn’t handle “backstabbing” or the attitude of some of the scholars.

Pinoy Idol Mall Tours
Wednesday, 02 July 2008
 

From an email without a source:

 

Hindi na lang sa performance, result night at shows ng GMA 7
mapa­panood ang Final 10 ng Pinoy Idol, dahil may mall tour sila na
magsisimula sa July 4, sa SM Megamall.

Sa August 16 and 17 na ang Grand Finale sa SMX Mall of Asia at
kailangan nilang mag-double time sa pangangampanya para sila’y iboto.
Inihahanda na ng Channel 7 ang sinumang mananalo sa F10 thru
workshops, seminars at iba pang paraan na makakatulong sa kanila.

A "Superstar" Fell : Mae Flores
Monday, 30 June 2008
 


I guess votefortheworstpinoy.tk truly has an influence over the voters of Pinoy Idol.

However, it is still a shocker that someone tagged just 2 weeks ago as a “superstar” would be eliminated after a less than stellar performance.
 
Especially when it’s really the fault of the band or the musical director for making song arrangement that sucks. I hardly recognized Penelope’s take on Ne-yo’s So Sick because of the sintonadong banda; just like what happened to Jayann’s Bleeding Love weeks ago.

Of course, these shocking vote results happen to American Idol as well (say, Michael Johns and Chris Daughtry). But at least, they don’t happen almost consecutively and almost all throughout the whole season. Walton, Meryl and Bev are just among the very early exiteers.

And despite being the Idol hopefuls people love to hate, Sue, Warren and Daryl remain.

It won’t be surprising anymore if Kid, Jayann, Penelope or Ram would be eliminated next week.

Toffer and Gretchen still remain at the middle or at the brink of being awful or perhaps, good enough.

As far as the 7 seasons of American Idol are concerned, 100% audience voting to determine the winner still works. After all, these American Idols truly deserve the title, at least as far as the competition is concerned (whether they have a career or none after the show is another matter altogether). Kelly Clarkson, Reuben Studdard, Fantasia Barrino, Carey Underwood, Taylor Hicks, Jordin Sparks and David Cook all deserve their Idol titles.

For our so-called “first Pinoy Idol” despite the dismal production, I still hope that the end result would still be, at least, as convincing and deserving.

Lea, Jose Mari at Regine, kukuning mentors ng Pinoy Idol
Tuesday, 24 June 2008
 

MAY balak palang kunin ng Pinoy Idol management sina Lea Salonga, Jose Mari Chan at Regine Velasquez para maging celebrity mentors ng finalists ng Pinoy Idol. Ito ang ipinarating sa showbiz press ni Hazel Abonita, production manager ng Pinoy Idol.

Goodbye Jenni Rawolle!
Sunday, 22 June 2008
 

 

Kid Camaya and Sue Ellen Cubing join Jenni Rawolle in the bottom 3 but our Lounge Singer a-la Sitti, goes home tonight. She should be proud of herself because she is not really as messed up as some of the remaining idol hopefuls, she is indeed, as Ogie puts it, a class act.

Top 12 Pinoy Idol Gala Night: Winner!? We Don't Think So...
Saturday, 21 June 2008
 
We expected a better show with the new set of Pinoy Idol. But I guess, expecting even a little improvement would just bring us more disappointment. The lighting sucks. I have never seen a singing contest with lighting that is so bad you can hardly see the faces of the contestants. It's like watching apparitions.

Kid and Penelope, Made Their Dads Proud!
Saturday, 14 June 2008
 
 
Again, Penelope and Kid are on top of their game with their "Father's day" song performances. Kid's "Gone Too Soon.. " was thoroughly heartfelt. And it was a travesty and an outright disrespectful of Wyngard Tracy to say that "Hindi naman nakakaiyak" when Ogie is apparently trying to hold back tears and Jolina just couldn't bear it anymore.

Viewers can't help but compare PI with AI on it's 1st Performance Night
Friday, 23 May 2008
 
Last night the boys showed why they belong to the Top 24.  It was a good-to-average presentation, while televiewers can't help but compare the production of Pinoy Idol to that of American Idol. And why not? It's a franchise. And ABC5's Philippine Idol almost met the standards of American Idol production when it held its ground last year. How much more if it's with GMA now?

American Idol Updates

America got it right again, and they didn't listen to Simon Cowell. David Cook is the 7th American Idol - with knockout votes beating to a pulp David Archuleta of over 12 million. [read more]

The Host and The Judges

Raymond Gutierrez, Jolina Magdangal, Ogie Alcasid, Wyngard Tracy
Judging the Judges
Not that their decisions would bear any weight once the lucky Pinoy Idol top 24 hopefuls get selected and when the voting starts, still, their words can definitely influence the voters. But as viewers, why should we listen to them in the first place?
