I guess Harry is pretty strong carrying all those guys around. He can pick me up any time.

I am excited for this season! The ending was hilarious.

Worth tuning in right there. Much better than a cat fight between two talentless divas.

Well, I enjoyed show #1 a lot better than any audition rounds I have seen in maybe 3 or 4 years. Looks like the new judges and format were a good choice.

Sup! We DVR the show (cause DH can't tolerate commercials) so we're watching it now.

Hello AI fans, I enjoyed the two hour premiere tonight. Looking forward to more! Didn't realize the thread was started, and so far along. Nice to see you all again. Now, I have to go back and read it all. Deb in NY

I'm in love with Harry Connick Jr!!!!

It'll be on here in a couple of hours. I'll check in again after. Can't wait. I've been following some of the comments so far and it sounds like a great season coming up.

I haven't watched AI or any other performance show since the David Cook season, whenever that was. I tuned in just because I knew Harry would be on. I was a little nervous considering that I figured most parents would know who he is, but a lot of the "kids" probably wouldn't be so familiar with him.

I don't think I've ever enjoyed an episode of AI so much. Harry was amazing, self-deprecating, funny, and brought a much-needed intelligence and real musical knowledge to the judging table. FINALLY. JLo and Keith Urban were nice, too, and I like that they're all genuine, caring individuals who really seem able to get along. I love that they cut out a lot of the embarrassingly horrible auditions and focused on the good ones-- it was a very positive show. In fact, my husband, who NEVER watches television at all and hates the show with a passion, came down and started watching and said, "You know, I think I want to watch more of this."

It's a refreshing change after the whole Nikki Minaj/Mariah Carey ego war train wreck that was last year!!
