Last three girls were the best

You know no one blew me away like last night, but no one is a sure thing send home for me either like I was last night

My overall impression is a lot of good singers a lot of bad song choices

Not sure, Watching. Did I hear right that tomorrow night is the next show? Same time as the debates??

Just checked AI site, and next show is, indeed, tomorrow night (8 pm EST).

The Shadow of Your Smile made me cry bigtime. I used to do that song in the piano bars way back in the stone age.

Nick, my hubby said the same thing. Says they're too young for him. Is that what the problem is for you, too? (The age thing doesn't bother me a bit.)

I think I'm burnt out...not only AI but BB and Survivor as well.

None of my fav shows are really pulling me in this year/season.

You probably are burned out. Just take a break from it all.

I haven't watched the girls yet, but Jason was my favourite of the guys. I figure Moon River and Chickieze Eze (I love his name) are toast.

I hated most of the songs tonight. So old and they sounded it. Many of them were boring. DH thinks it's a Brit thing because he thought a couple were OK but, honestly, even Simon was less bored with the songs than I was tonight.

DH and I both think that Randy and Paula must sometimes feel like just walking off since the contestants are always more interested by Simon's comments and really react far more enthusiastically if Simon likes them (even if R & P both love them) than if anyone else gives them a glowing critique. It's really such a slap in the face to R & P.

And, I agree with Simon. WTH was Paula going on about? Does anyone ever understand what that woman is trying to say?!

Who else has noticed (not very hard to miss) that at the end of the show Ryan Seacrest thanks Randy, then thanks Paula...and no mention of Simon.

At the end of Ryans's "thank yous", the camera panned to Simon and he was just laughing. I really think this is all just for show, and Simon will have a "come back" for Ryan. Kind of childish IMHO.

Oh, and really enjoyed tonight's last 3 female singers. But, we have seen how some contestants really bring it all out after the first few rounds are over with. It's just way to early to for me to have one favorite.

Allie, I think you and your DH are correct, but R and P, if they feel people aren't valuing their critiques, they need to look inward. I do think they value Randy's but then Paula is just confusing.. And heaven help them if she is negative!

I'm still watching and .. so far I like Amanda the rocker nurse but..

I think starting the season with sixties isn't helping any of them but some of the guys managed to light up the place. Hoping at least one girl will.

And is dial idol broken tonight or is no one voting tonight?

Hmm up through Kady.. I wondered if she was overmedicated.. seriously she seemed sort of dissociated, outside her body. Too bad.

Just watching the show... so if you don't call it washing up liquid, what do you call what you use when you wash the dishes by hand?

Totally not impressed....
Too many blondes, too much yelling/singing-too many carrie/kelly/Fantasia wannabees...

Almost all were above average compared to some of the previous years, but no one really stood out for me. I think song choice might have a lot to do with it.

We call it dish washing liquid.

I loved Asia'h, Ramiele & Brooke. I liked Alaina too!

My least favorites were Amy & Joanne.

We call it dishwashing soap in our house! ;-)

I love Brooke. Love the sound of her voice. Liked Carly, Asia'h, Ramiele and Syesha. Other than that, I think the rest of the ladies were kind of forgettable. Poor song choice, maybe, as another poster mentioned. Just...blah.

I liked Ramiele too, also love love love the song she sang.
I happened to have liked the songs. I guess it is from my generation. They were 60s songs. I also like Asia'h too

I liked Kady and hope she does better next week. I also like Alaina and the gal who sang, "Where the Boys Are." I'm hoping she does better next week.

These judges seem to get harsher by the year. Randy drives me crazy. He's such a follower, so when he goes first, I don't always get what he's trying to say or think it's accurate. Paula?? Heh, heh, I understand what you're saying, Seamonkey.

Simon was his usual crusty self. I'm not impressed with the judges as all this year. The contestants are more mature than them. It kind of ruins the show. I don't think they will get the best of these people by being so harsh with them. A little encouragement goes a long way.
