I boycotted watching the first six seasons because I considered it just another clone of other prime-time lack-of-talent shows. But, everyone kept telling me I should give it a try. So, when I first heard the Internet rumors about Rudolph Giuliani, I tuned in out of morbid curiosity.
Well, after seven agonizing weeks and two red herrings (McTerrier losing his head and Firefly trying to refuse a tie-breaker), it finally happened. Giuliani appeared on the show dressed as a rooster jack-in-the box! And I'm not surprised he got voted off. The man is a piss-poor singer. Heck! I wouldn't even call what he did bargain-basement rapping! More like an overgrown kid reciting something in an elementary school play.
As for the reactions among the celebrity judges? Three were suitably surprised. But, Ken Jeong just walked off in a huff. And, personally, I hope he stays off! The celebrity judges, as a whole, are lousy guessers. Guessing wrong four-out-of-the last seven weeks.
Jeong, however, was the worst of the lot.
So, in summary, I give the series in general (and this episode in particular) a well-deserved one star. Yet, even that--I feel--is being overly charitable.
