Critic Reviews for American Idol Season 7
All Critics (5) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (3)
This megahit can still draw the big names, create an "Event," and make the pundits swallow their words.
I don't disagree that maybe it was one of the strongest seasons, talent-wise, but that plus all the bells and whistles didn't necessarily make it more compelling. Maybe it was that with extra-polished singers come extra-polished personalties.
The show did make fun of a couple people, or at least let them make fun of themselves.
There is nothing about [David] Cook's vocals that set them apart from any of the other struggling, wannabe pop stars clamoring to be heard these days; he doesn't have a snide snarl or a gravelly rasp, he just has a clean, well-mannered voice.
[American Idol] no longer carried that palpable sense that winning meant something important -- it was just another singing competition. Case in point, the talent pool in Season 7 was remarkably weak.
