He gave Kimberly Caldwell a rose on the red carpet and asked her out to dinner.

Okay, I'm going to watch Top Chef. Tonight's episode is Restaurant Wars with Anthony Bourdain.

All of you Westies enjoy the show tonight. I'll catch everyone tomorrow!

Toodles...

I certainly hope most people with Tivo's set them for a few minutes extra. Luckily I was watching live when the announced the winner because my Tivo stopped recording exactly when Ryan said the winner is David...then it turned off. If I weren't watching live I'd have no idea who won. LOL. Actually, it took me a few minutes because there's always a milisecond that gets skipped when the Tivo goes off and in that milisecond, he said Cook. So, I had to keep watching to see which one stayed on stage. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE that David C won! He's awesome, personable, human, and genuine. I'll buy his CD.

Awesome Mamie. Where did you find it? His MySpace was cleared out when he went on the show. I'd love to have it, too. Email me! ;)

I had to jump up and cancel my setting on my cable box so it didn't switch to Top Chef before it was over. Whew... glad I got it! First finale I think I'll watch again. Woooo hoooooo!! Ok, now I have to go learn how to cook... heh heh. Ok, so I have to go see my DD's boyfriend is learning in culinary school in NYC. :-)

Watching2, make sure your settings are set so that you do not allow uploading and you should be fine. I don't use Limewire much, but that is what we did.

Yes, we don't have the uploading and have never had a problem. We also have Itunes for my Ipod but there are some songs you can't get there.

By about how much did the show go over? I don't want to miss a SECOND of this...I think it's the first time in Idol history that my personal favorite has won.

I have it set for 5 minutes long...is that enough?

I'd go 10 minutes over just to be on the safe side. I think it might have run 8 minutes long.

All in all a pretty fun finale. I'm happy that David Cook won. I have absolutely no idea what the judges were thinking of when they made their comments last night or why they decided to say what they said.

Gurliegirl - That is exactly what happened to me. I just got done saying that I wish they didnt wait until the last minute to announce the winner, and when it stopped after "The winner is David..." my DH about split a gut laughing!!!

Ryan at least got in Cook before my recording ended. Missed all the reaction and the last song. I should have known to record extra.

I heard there was a cool moment between David C and his brother - but missed that.

I am so very happy after watching the show. David Cook was wonderfully gracious in his winning. I can't wait to buy his cd.

On the West Coast they squeezed it up a bit so that we got "the winner is David COOK" before the "bing" end of recording! Luckily I was watching it and the tv was still on the same channel and I could rewind and see the reaction.

Great show! I love that they get really big stars to perform with the contestants. David A did really well with that guy on the piano (can't remember the artist) and David C must have enjoyed ZZ Top.

George Michael is looking old! When the stubble is all grey it's time to shave it off my dear!

It's nice to have a final and feel happy afterwards. I'd have felt pretty much the same if David A won but it was nice to have my favourite win.

I was so impressed with David Cook at the end. The way he commanded the stage was quite impressive. The way he called David A and the rest of the cast over made him look like an old pro, but impressed me as so sincere and classy.

Man I hope David A. didn't get a whuppin from his daddy last night . Woo hoo for the Cook win, though. That was awesome, he seems a sweet and deserving guy. And much more firmly situated to handle the fame than Archuletta.

Way to go David Cook!!

Loved the Guitar Hero commercial with David Cook (not so much with David A)

Oh, and George Michael is starting to look like Gianni Versace. I didn't think he sounded so hot, either. Sadly.
