American Idol S8

i've been hooked by the season 8 of American Idol on Fox 8 so far this year. they have a new extravagant stage, and the mix of contestants is flavourful and very likeable, that even Simon Cowell is seen smiling more often than his actual reputation.

i'm placing my bet on Danny Gokey, but Adam Lambert is an obvious contender. the first week's elimination round is already out, but it's still saved in the IQ HD. i'll have to finish that episode of The Mentalist first.

Oh, Casey the Campus Girls model below? She didn't make it past the top 40.

Zatanna in Smallville

"serinda" is apparently tibetan (a musical instrument to be exact), but she is certainly appropriately cast (in the visual department) as Zatanna (a spellcaster who recites her incantations sdrawkcab) in the latest season of Smallville.

she is also apparently the face of Absolute Poker (only heard of WPT and PPT myself), and several TV commercials in the States. maybe she can try being the Scarlet Witch when the Avengers movie come out in 2012?

she's joined by regular cast members (above), as she weaves her charm in the episode, Hex, as per the original character (below). as with a gazillion other tv shows, i have yet to review this episode.
