THE OFFICE Spoilers - Season Finale

THE OFFICE season finale is only a few weeks away. I know, right? Way too soon. But if there is anyone that knows how to put together a kick ass season finale it’s the crew over at THE OFFICE. Need I remind you of the kiss that shook the world on ‘Casino Night’ or perhaps those heart stopping three little words: “It’s a date!”.

This year’s season finale is sure to have some big moments. Security had been super tight during the shooting of the finale, going as far as requiring the actors to turn in their scripts at the end of the day and having everyone who even set foot on the set sign confidentiality agreements. But why?

After the jump (because we would never want to spoil an innocent passerbyer) we’ll talk about news about THE OFFICE spin-off and some rumors about just what might happen during the super secret OFFICE finale.

Paula Abdul is Off Her Meds

…or else AMERICAN IDOL is fixed. Either idea is completely plausible. But in what was definitely the strangest moment of the night, Paula Abdul critiques both of Jason Castro’s performances. Too bad he had only sung once at that point in time. How does Paula already have detailed notes on his second song? And somewhat negative comments at that?! Something smells a little fishy. Oh and did you see how Randy and Simon quickly jumped in and covered for her rather than simply make fun of her like they usually do? Check out the look on Simon’s face when Paula starts giving comments on Jason’s second song. He looks a little panicked if you ask me. See for yourself…

So is this Paula just being Paula (probably) or am I just looking for a story where there really isn’t one (most likely).

Project Runway Canada ‘Eh’

Before we got any further I think it’s important to say that I’m not hating on Canada. (I like to save all my jokes about our neighbors to the North for use on my friend Mark). I’ve only been to Canada a few times but the beer has always treated me well. And would I really hate the homeland of Josh Jackson. Come on, you know me better than that.

That being said, I had to share this hysterical review of PROJECT RUNWAY CANADA by international PROJECT RUNWAY expert, Jennifer Eolin.

Jennifer’s Runway, eh…
Okay, I’m a little late to this party. By about 5-ish months. But I live in LA, so technically, I’m still waaaay early. I really had NO idea that there was a Project Runway: Canada edition out there!! Heidi Klum is Iman! Tim Gunn is someone I never heard of! Confused fists!

I have to say though, I do like the idea of Iman being the “Heidi Klum” of Canada. I wonder if she says: “You’re out, eh?” (Tee-hee!)

Their Tim Gunn is Brian Bailey. Yeah. Nice mustache, guy. Do you moonlight as a pervert?

I’ve never heard of Brian Bailey either but apparently he’s HUGE in Canada. I’m guessing he must make flannel jackets or something. (I kid! Mounties’ uniforms for sure. No! That’s terrible! Fishing boots. I’m certain of it.) I hazard to assert that he is NO Tim Gunn. No doubt aboot it. (I can’t control myself!)

David Cook Sings ‘All I Really Need is You’ and ‘I’m Alive’

Surprise, surprise - my favorite performances of the night were that of David Cook. He took on two of Neil Diamond’s less popular tunes - “All I Really Need is You” and “I’m Alive”. I’ll be watching these a few more times.

Am I blinded by love or was Cookie that good?

David Archuleta Sings ‘Sweet Caroline’ and ‘America’

David Archuleta is going to sail on to next week with his performances of ‘Sweet Caroline’ and ‘America’. Then again I think he could have just stood up there and stared at the camera and he would be safe until next week.

Were you a fan of these performances?

AMERICAN IDOL Top 5 Perform

I am I said.  Ok well I didn’t say it but Neil Diamond did.  And Neil is the main man tonight as the IDOL performers take on his words and music.  Each Idol will try their best with two of Neil’s songs.  Who will give us a stunning performance and who will forget the lyrics, stop mid-way through the song and start again?  Oh look at me…I’m sooo snarky.Before we get this party started, Seacrest informs us that the Idols will only receive their critique from the judges after their second performance.  I say ‘boo hiss’ to this. Are you really going to deny me the chance to hear Simon say ‘you’re lucky you have a chance to redeem yourself with your second song because that is not enough…you daft prick” (ok I threw in that last part because I’ve always wanted to hear him say that.

On the with the show…

Jason Castro leads off the night with “Forever in Blue Jeans”. The boy has his guitar back tonight.  Let’s hope he can remember the lyrics because he struggled with them while performing for Neil.  Listen, I enjoy Jason but this performance lacked that certain something to make it great.  He was energetic but not energetic enough.  It was either Simon or Randy that recently compared Jason to to Jack Johnson, and I’ll tell you ever since then that’s all I can think of when I hear Jason.

My boy David Cook is up next with “I’m Alive”.  I can tell just by his intro video that he’s going to be amazing tonight.  It’s guitar tonight obviously because Cookie is rocking out tonight too.  This isn’t one of Neil’s most popular songs, but it’s great none the less and David is owning it.  Wow, this song was crazy short.  Definitely not my favorite performance, but come on it was still pretty damn good.
