The unstoppable Idol juggernaut may have been a strange kid who didn't like sports, but that didn't stop him from hitting another one out of the park last night.
Whether you think Archuleta was robbed or Cook rules, you'll enjoy Jim & Penny's last Idol Chat, where they break out the champagne to dish on all things good and bad during finale week.
Jim Verraros weighs in on season one co-host Brian Dunkleman's recent comments that the show was "mean-spirited and targeted specific contestants in an effort to break them."
This week on Idol Chat, Jim & Penny ask the tough question: Namely, what was up with David Cook’s unfortunate waist sash? Also, Penny breaks out her Laura Bush impression.
Jim Verraros and Penny Frulla talk about the past week's performances and the questionable fashions — including that unfortunate dress Project Runway winner Christian Siriano designed for Kimberly Locke.
