Nashville Star Season 3 Premiere 3/1/05
I know that probably 3 people here watch Nashville Star, but in case you did, the 2005 season premiere airs tonight on USA at 10 p.m. EST.
I tend to like Nashville Star because of the songwriting component to the competition, and the no age ceiling limit has brought to the fore quite a few contestants that otherwise would not have had the exposure on a country talent show.
I wonder if we'll get a great female singer this time around as the competition has been dominated by men so far in the past 2 seasons.
Also, Leann Rimes is the new host of the show. And there are new judges: Bret Michaels (yes, of Poison fame), Phil Vassar, and Anastasia Brown.

Can I just get this out of the way? I'm a tad disappointed that Jenny (?) made it offstage before performing a technicolor yawn. It would probably have made me a definite viewer, while now I'm really wondering if I give a crap about the show. This is not shaping up to be a good season.

What will be funny though, is if someone other than Jenny is voted off! I think Leann Rimes is Hot-as-Hell and I'm in for another week at least. Here are my grades-
Casey- A ...Excellent first impression
Jody- F ...I can't take this guy seriously
Tamika- C+ ...ehhh.
Josh- B ...Not bad, fun to watch his Guitar licks.
Christy- F ...Way too hyper, please go away
Jason- C ...ehhh.
Erika- C ...ehhh.
Jenny- F ...wow, sorry, but you still might make it with America doing the voting.
Jayron- A ...At this point- I say you might win it all.
Justin- C ...ehhh.

Maybe its just me,but I didn't think the "Talent" was anywhere near up to par with the top 10 last year.I guess it could be because its the first show but no-one really impressed me.The judges seemed pretty useless too,more like a cheerleading sqaud.
I'll give it a couple more weeks at least.
In canada there was a show on before it called "The Road to Nashville Star" that showed a bunch of audtions etc,not sure if the US got something similar or not.
Its being repeated Thurs night & Sunday anyway on CMT in Canada if anyone that wanted to see it missed it.

Leann Rimes has dropped a lot of baby fat in the past 4-5 years, she is thin!
The Good:
Casey - Good way to start. Cute and can sing.
Tamika - Has a big voice, we'll see if she can also rein it in.
Jason - Enjoy his "N" (wife) more than his singing, but at least he sounded country.
Jayron - It looked like he was going to cry all through the song, not my kind of country vocalist.
The okay:
Jenny - Food poisoning, stage-fright, whatever, I think she'll make it one more week.
Erika - Too young, and appeared to have connection with the song she sang.
The Not-so-good:
Christy - Couldn't stand her singing or personality.
Jody - Couldn't really make sense of his vocal, not too enticing
Josh - Has no voice, may make it as a guitar player, but on life support.
Justin - short on vocals, I predict a short stay on the show.

I thought I might resurrect this thread from the dead since I watched my tape. This week was the original song week. I did not really care for any of the songs this week. They were probably nowhere near the quality of the last two seasons. I did think that Erika Jo had the best performance this week. I was glad to see that Tamika was voted off. She had a major diva factor and she thought that the younger girls didn't deserve to be on the show because they hadn't paid their dues. Erika Jo is my favorite to win. I do not think Jody and Jayron are country singers. I miss Brad Cotter and Matt Lindahl from last season. Brad lost his record deal due to poor sales. I really loved his record. Matt Lindahl is doing Purity milk commercials now. From the first season Miranda Lambert just had her first album come out and it was number 1 on the country sales chart.
