FBLA made a New Year’s resolution to get more in touch with pop culture in 2007 (we like an achievable goal–our reach exceeds our grasp by about three feet) and thus, are not only TiVoing American Idol, we’re selecting the more extra-special recaps for you guys.(And recappers: post should be shorter than actual show.)

BlogCritics: Why haven’t these contestants learned that unless you ARE Whitney, Mariah, Celine, or Stevie, do not sing their music.

TVGasm: Phil Stacey: Penis Head or Alien Head?
