Latest episode clacks for this show:
(1/19 – 1/26) The subject of the Friday night death slot comes up fairly regularly around here. Moreso recently, what with the Terminator/Dollhouse debut right around the corner. I’m not one to argue in the face of so much damning evidence, but I do think there is a plucky young upstart with eyes on the […]
Dear American Idol Producers, I just want to send along a sincere thank you for issuing your public apology to Mark Mudd. While we already know that CliqueClack is one of the most important and influential sources on the web for television-related content, you can’t know how thrilled we are that CliqueClack had such an […]
I wrote recently about my love/hate relationship with American Idol. There have been some pretty horrendous audition episodes so far this season, and I didn’t expect much different from last night’s combined “New York”/Puerto Rico auditions.
