We were doing the same thing! Some really tough musical genres: polka (our first thought, too), but also jazz (how many ways to wear a black turtleneck), classical (something with knickers and a powdered wig), gospel (a kick-ass choir robe) or klezmer (rock me Ashkenazi!)
Way more intersting and fun music genre's than what BRAVO served up last week. I loooove Kenley as Veronica. It's so fitting. Alex, you should have enough material at this point of the season to do an entire strip - no an entire comic book on her alone and it would be a.ma.zing.
Alex, you are clearly a fountain of creativity the Magical Elves (or their successor) should tap into.
Kenley had to stay pop because she looks so much like a brunette Britney Spears both in face and body that it's scary. Although Kenley is scary for other reasons too.
Hey TLo - how about recapping the previous episode sometime around when it happens? You have a whole lot of filler on your blog these days, couldn't some of it wait until after you talk about the current episode? I'd rather see your critiques when the shows are a little fresh, it all seems a bit stale by now.
when I die, I want my family to commission a special comic tribute to my life from Alex! because it'll make them laugh so much they'll forget to be sad.
Okay, Alex it's up to you. If there's really no "reunion" show (and that makes me sad) let's ask Alex very nicely if he'll create "the reunion that wasn't but should have been..." Pretty please?

HA!! nasty mean gurl.. channelling her innerself..great toon. thank you!
9/29/08, 11:25 AM
I think mean girl should have had to be a Head Banger - after all she has cause the rest of us to bang OUR heads in frustration!
9/29/08, 11:25 AM
LMAO!! That was great!
9/29/08, 11:30 AM
alex, you NEVER disappoint. thanks :)
9/29/08, 11:31 AM
Let's play musical chairs for the judges!
Nina should be 50's R&B, in a tight, short & shiny cocktail dress.
Michael should be classical in a long, black evening gown with full length gloves and a sparkly tiara for the Duchess.
Heidi should be ragtime in a short, fringy little number with large plastic jewelry.... wait doesn't she wear that all the time anyway?
9/29/08, 11:31 AM
Oh Alex...........you slay(er) me!!
Loved!! As always.
9/29/08, 11:31 AM
ahhh, it's going to be a good week now....
9/29/08, 11:32 AM
Brilliant, Alex! (Suede's "vow of silence" was a hoot!)
9/29/08, 11:37 AM
Love the puff sleeves on Jerrell's polka outfit. Perfect.
9/29/08, 11:43 AM
I will totally rock Early Sixties Folk Singer. Hot.
9/29/08, 11:47 AM
Alex, you rock!
9/29/08, 11:49 AM
Oh Alex... " I think I Love You " Partridge Family singing in the background....
9/29/08, 11:50 AM
Would have been waaaay more interesting if they had consulted Alex before they dreamed up this episode!
9/29/08, 11:57 AM
Bravo
(In the old, meaningful use of the word.)
9/29/08, 11:58 AM
Alex, you are my hero!
9/29/08, 12:02 PM
Oh, Alex! You're too good to us. Please don't ever stop.
9/29/08, 12:04 PM
Please, let's bring back Stella and have someone dress her in Disco.
9/29/08, 12:04 PM
Good one, Alex!
I have a feeling that you like drawing Veronica more than Leanne these days.

9/29/08, 12:20 PM
I second the Disco Stella idea. Man, that suggestion made my day!
9/29/08, 12:23 PM
Is it sad that Jerrell would likely rock the hell out of lederhosen? Just so long as it showcased his breastbone?
9/29/08, 12:26 PM
AHHahahaha!
Alex, your drawings are always killer, but extra extra props must be given to your writing this week.
Gregorian chant? Norwegian death metal? Love it!
9/29/08, 12:44 PM
Excellent job, Alex!
You make a cute elf, but I was hoping you might join in the challenge and show up dressed as Bono.
9/29/08, 12:45 PM
Wow, Alex, Leann looks like Stella's long lost twin in your drawing.
Still it's wayyyy better than her hip-flop outfit from the show.
Hilarious as always. Thanks Alex
9/29/08, 12:49 PM
Norweigian Black Metal... I almost had an aneurysm with laughter. xD
9/29/08, 12:53 PM
"Ms. Collins if you're nasty"
ROFLMAO.
9/29/08, 1:11 PM
Suzanne & tokyo rosa - Yes!
Poor Stella! I have a feeling she'd be appalled at how good she'd look in "disco threads!"
If the ancient brain cells work, I believe the creeping-me-out-to-even-type-it term would be "foxy!"
9/29/08, 1:15 PM
I think this was one of his best. Amaaazing!
9/29/08, 1:18 PM
You're right, Alex. Your version of that episode would have been far more awesome!
9/29/08, 1:39 PM
Alex - you watch Californication, don't you?
9/29/08, 1:42 PM
I <3 Alex.
9/29/08, 1:48 PM
Alex shoots and scores again! Brilliant!
9/29/08, 2:00 PM
the only TV I watch is PR and MAD MEN.
9/29/08, 2:04 PM
Alex!: The only TV I watch is PR and Mad Men.
Excellent taste!
And thanks for the cartoon, of course.
9/29/08, 2:33 PM
Too bad Stella & Joe were eliminated. I would have loved to see Alex render them as Donny & Marie.
(Sonny & Cher is too obvious.)

Love it! This is great!

OMG!! Now that I would pay money to see!! LOLOL
Another Homerun Alex!
9/29/08, 5:01 PM
Bravo!
Love Jerell and Suede, especially. Quite frankly, it'd of been WAY more interesting had they given them your choices!
9/29/08, 5:23 PM
Best toon yet!!! Go Alex go! You made me laugh out loud - putting the "OL" in "LOL" is not an easy feat. Keep up the great work.
9/29/08, 5:33 PM
Love the Norwegian black metal reference. Reminds me of some friends who were into Opeth. lol
Love the toon!! The Elves do need your assistance.
9/29/08, 5:41 PM
Fabulous, Alex! LOL.
9/29/08, 6:02 PM
Alex, you are HILARIOUS, and ADORABLE.
Thank you!!
9/29/08, 6:04 PM
Alex, you are clearly a fountain of creativity the Magical Elves (or their successor) should tap into.
Kenley had to stay pop because she looks so much like a brunette Britney Spears both in face and body that it's scary. Although Kenley is scary for other reasons too.
9/29/08, 7:33 PM
Love it, Alex. You're way more creative than the elves who produce PR.
Mean girl is pop. Cute and vapid-ish. Good call.
9/29/08, 7:45 PM
Hey TLo - how about recapping the previous episode sometime around when it happens? You have a whole lot of filler on your blog these days, couldn't some of it wait until after you talk about the current episode? I'd rather see your critiques when the shows are a little fresh, it all seems a bit stale by now.
9/29/08, 9:55 PM
when I die, I want my family to commission a special comic tribute to my life from Alex! because it'll make them laugh so much they'll forget to be sad.
9/29/08, 10:13 PM
This would have been much more interesting than the actual challenge. I want to see another yodeling outfit on the runway!
9/29/08, 10:26 PM
Thanks Alex!
Maybe you should be part of the production team!
Third to Disco Stella--
the episode that should have been...
9/29/08, 11:36 PM
Great job, Alex! Thanks for sharing.
9/30/08, 12:27 AM
Okay, Alex it's up to you.
If there's really no "reunion" show (and that makes me sad) let's ask Alex very nicely if he'll create "the reunion that wasn't but should have been..." Pretty please?

9/30/08, 9:09 AM
Thank you for sharing your talent.
9/30/08, 10:55 AM
Hahahahahaha! Gregorian chant! Ms. Collins if you're nasty! Literally falling off my chair. Alex, you're brilliant as usual! : )
9/30/08, 6:40 PM
Kenley as Veronica Lodge.
I LOVE IT!!!!!
10/24/08, 7:43 PM
OMG this is absolutely hilarious. I can't believe I didn't discover your blog until now :(
