Hope it doesn't carry on as it ruins the show.
Did anyone else notice that it sounded a lot better in the recap segment at the end, with the phone numbers? Like they had edited it or something.
Those are edited versions of the dress rehearsal performances.
o I didn't realise, thanks.
Casey in particular was impossible to hear some of the time. Combine this with 6 minute ad. breaks and the show is becoming unwatchable for me. Which is a shame, as it's a really good year for contestants!
It's so cute how people refer to the contestants as the Idols.:o I never have but will now! It's funny
I always think it sounds odd calling them 'contestants', as though they should be on a game show. Actually, I don't think I've ever even called anyone on a game show a 'contestant'.
Other references I've seen to the Idols are: hamsters and kids.
The TV output last night was definitely not right, not when I'm cranking up my volume by 15 notches to hear it! And then having to turn it down again when the ads come on.
You'd think that in America, with all the money they throw at productions, they would manage to get the sound levels right, wouldn't you?
I find a lot of the arrangements are very old fashioned as well, and this isn't helping.
The sound mix wasn't quite so bad last year for some reason. I don't know, maybe it's all part of the "Look what big voices the contestants have this year" pantomime.
