What We Learned from Tonight’s Apprentice Elimination

Sep 22nd, 2005 | By Joe Taylor Jr. | Category: Television

Without giving anything away for our West Coast friends, tonight’s Apprentice (which was the best episode in a while — maybe since season two) showcased what can go wrong when you choose to be negative about a situation.
I see it all the time in bands. When one person on your success team decides they’re going [...]



Just because I’m a nice guy…

“…doesn’t mean I’m not sexy.”
Mig wonders if he didn’t get chosen as the new lead singer of INXS because his fans are a little older. It certainly won’t hurt him when he releases his solo record…

MP3’s of Every Rock Star: INXS Performance

Sep 2nd, 2005 | By Joe Taylor Jr. | Category: Television

Honestly, I’m not sure if I’m going to keep watching now that Ty’s out of the race, but if you want to hear what the contestants have been doing to impress four million fans each week, some folks have posted MP3’s of every song from the series. How long it will last depends entirely on [...]

In shock that Ty’s going home, but hoping that it just means he’ll swing through town with a band so we can see him live sooner. Rock Star: INXS: Elimination Night #8 Recap at TVSquad.

Rock Star: INXS: Elimination #7

Aug 25th, 2005 | By Joe Taylor Jr. | Category: Television

Since folks have a tendency to ask me for these results even before I get to see the show on my Moxi, it sounds like Suzie’s getting love from the audience, and Ty’s tweaking the increasingly annoying J.D.: Rock Star: INXS: Elimination #7 Recap at TVSquad.

Rock Star: INXS: Elimination #6

Aug 18th, 2005 | By Joe Taylor Jr. | Category: Television

Looks like Jessica’s finally getting the boot. With a good vocal coach and some clarity around her fashion style (she seems to be unsure of what looks flattering on her), she could go places. The West Coast and the rest of the Voting World agree with me that we’d all go pay to see Ty [...]



Rock Star: INXS - Elimination #5

Aug 11th, 2005 | By Joe Taylor Jr. | Category: Television

This week’s elimination was pretty interesting because it highlighted the fact that more folks are watching the show overseas than in the U.S. That could explain how, from time zone to time zone, different tastes got reflected in the voting, and the huge Aussie fan base for INXS are steering the ship now.
Although I [...]

Been knee deep in some client projects, so the elimination of Tara is waiting for me on my Moxi… TVSquad notes that Ty’s version of Kick is something to behold…

Rock Star: INXS “may be a clever move”

Aug 1st, 2005 | By Joe Taylor Jr. | Category: Television

Andy Dehnart makes a great point that takes a page out of Bob Baker’s “don’t worry about most people” playbook. With ratings hovering around four million viewers, TV folks are moaning how Rock Star: INXS is a TV flop. Some tin-foil-hat types are even suggesting that the double-elimination is the first of many, designed to [...]



Rock Star: INXS: Elimination Episode #3

Jul 28th, 2005 | By Joe Taylor Jr. | Category: Television

I always have to wonder if Mark Burnett deliberately plans a double-elimination somewhere in the schedule, or if he sighs deeply when judges start plowing through contestants. Didn’t see Heather getting the boot so soon, but it does show that you’ve got to bring it every week, sickness or no. Rock Star: INXS: Elimination Night [...]
