New judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez are okay, but there’s now no mean judge like Simon Cowell. He’s often been a jerk, but let’s face a fact: that was often what drew ratings.
When they played Dream On for Tyler I expected it to be mentioned how contestant Danny Goki butchered the song a few years ago.
There weren’t as many ‘train wreck’ auditions shown as usual, but this was just the first night. Only one contestant stood out as a sacrificial Hollywood lamb too… a cute singing waitress.
