i didn't watch the series, but if the last two shows were anything like the series, it was way to obviously staged to be a platform for china... she is wonderful, an amazing talent, and maybe that is why she won (the final vote was not in when i wrote that)... unfortunately, calling the celebrity judges "experts" added to the farcical feeling the show presented... the lip synching may have been denied, but it was way too obvious in the finale with landry smith's little richard and briefly for china doing whitney houston... my guess is disney put this show together specifically to showcase their foourteen year old phenomenal talent, china ann mclain, who actually deserves it, but the pretense sours the whole experience... i am very glad i did not watch the series and only catch the finale... maybe they will apologize (craig ferguson was a pleasant surprise, even if it distracts us from the point of this entry, but then, when was that ever discouraged around here?... what?... i mean, it's background tv, it's supposed to be a distraction, didntcha know?)...
anyway, i dvr'd the finale after reading about it tonight and so i did a bit of and after watching in fast forward, i did a little internet search and i see it is as obvious as it appeared to me... the very strange minds at common sense media (misnomer, anyone?) don't help the show, but their very narrow view is included her mostly out of shock that they exist and someone might actually take them seriously... back to the show, ummmm, then again, it's over, i'm done...
