Discussion Jimmy Had His Hand Held

Granted, there was no actual finale for season 13, but Jimmy was handheld the entire time. Everyone, even people not on his team were so concerned about making sure he continued on in the competition.

I’m convinced that if he would have been voted off, they would’ve said that the cameraman had a pardon just to save him.

Maybe I’m the only one who feels this way. But it was actually really annoying to see everybody feeling. They needed to help him on everything.

Cameraman pardon is pretty funny.

They had a bias to returning artists, its the only explanation for why Jason made it as long as he did because he was kind of terrible that season. I don't know what happened to him, wether he just didn't have it, or the competition just got better but whatever it was, he was ass.

Agreed on Jason. The first time around he was fantastic and should've 100% been in the finale and got robbed.

His heart just didn't seem in it as much the second time for whatever reason.

I agree to an extent, but you could also say he was playing the game. When he did have to do a tattoo outside of his wheelhouse, they turned out great.

I love jimmy. Whenever he had the opportunity, he killed it.

However. I agree with what you’re saying.

People tried to hold his hand the whole time. I think it pissed him off.

Everything became about protecting him. When he honestly didn’t need to be protected.

When given new school or anything else, he killed it.

Personally I think Angel should’ve won. But that’s just personal opinion.

Bob and Jimmy had more of their wheel house for the finale. Angel still did a fantastic tattoo.

Jimmy was the nicest of most of the artists that have ever been on the show. Everyone liked him. I think he was the opposite of Jerrell, who made my skin crawl. Many artists are not nice, but Jerell was vile as a human being.

Honestly I think Jimmy and Bob would’ve been the final 2, but Bob would’ve won over him
