Guys temps seem to be running pretty high here...
this is my first posting.. but i couldn't resist once i saw that KK as a judge was being commented.
First and foremost..i am a great fan of KK's as a singer but KK as a judge leaves a lot to be desired.
Leaving everything else aside..(for the moment no even delving into the issue that is being discussed on another thread)... the biggest cause of concern is the fact that how he is the only judge who decides to join in the contestant's singing...!!!
think about it objectively...
a singing competition... a professional singer as a judge...prior to the completion of the contestant's rendition...the judge pitches in and start's singing... so the remaining judges' (technically) are not just grading the contestant or just grading the contestant for a partial performance...either way's its not fair.
Both the other judges are also professional singers... how come this doesn't happen with them.
i love hearing KK sing... as much as the next person...but honestly..i d much rather he'd wait and let the contestants finish...(and it does happen way way too often).
also his comments do tend to be long winded...with the result that sometimes they don't air comments of one of the other judges..but thats fine.. we can (or at least i can) live with that...
and as mentioned earlier...the comments are about KK the judge...we are not discussing KK the singer...
