    I shudder to think of Paula without that show. She's been on a weight roller coaster that helped cost her a pop music career. She clearly needs some stabilizing of her chemicals. Her chops as a choreographer are unquestioned, but could she take that kind of blow to her ego, to in the end be no better than Toni Basil

    Totally agree that it went to a bloated mess with the fourth judge. Going back to three can only help.

    Still, I think Paula was a much bigger problem there. There were times when she would eat up two or three minutes with her bizarre "I'm so proud of the colors of the voice that is the star that is you..." routine. Then Simon would try to speak and she would talk over him the whole time.

    Maybe they could give Seacrest a taser.

    If they were planning on firing Paula, they should fire Kara too and hire some other big-name to be a judge.

    Sharon Osbourne would keep things interesting. I know it will never happen, but Kara and Randy are both complete bores. Maybe this will allow Simon more time and that could be a good thing.

    William Shatner doing Denny Crane as a judge would be fucking brilliant.

    Ryan: So what did you think of Kathie Lee Cook, William?
    William: She so wants me.
