Our Favorite American (Not So) Idols

Ahhhh, the first episode of the season and it’s already chock full of goodies! We may not love the new judge (she’s acting all too-cool-for-school already), but last night’s episode did not disappoint.

Between that guy who was so nervous he almost passed out and you couldn’t understand a word he was singing to the bikini girl who is now all over the internet and probably loving her 15 minutes, the two-hour season premier went by way too fast. Thank God it’s on again tonight!

We usually can’t devote two straight hours to anything (class, working out….) but American Idol continues to draw us in with it’s perfect mix of talent and um, the other people. Here are a few of our faves from last night’s episode:

It’s that time of year again! The time of year young performers from around the country line up to put their hopes and dreams out on primetime TV. When we can sit around in flannel pants and guiltlessly judge, mock and swoon over every audition tape that comes our way. When Paula stands up and speaks some nonsense gibberish at starry eyed singers.

That’s right ladies: American Idol starts tonight (OMGI’mSoExcited!).

In honor of some of the awesomest entertainment on television, we decided to take a look back at the men we have grown to love over the last eight seasons. Click here to see the ladies.

Will there be another William Hung? Another Ruben? Another Daughtry?

We’ll just have to watch and find out. (Cue the commercial break.)

Nerdy Clay Aiken:

Rockstar, Chris Daughry:

David Archuletta (who sometimes makes us want to be in high school again):

Bo Bice:

Old Man Taylor Hicks:

Ruben Studdard:

Our personal favorite, William Hung:
