Was Brooke the long curly blonde girl who usually sang behind a piano?

They haven't announced a shocker tonight right? So that means Katie is going home. The shocker would be if the guy they saved last week went home this week. ETA: Dang, I'm good! And another good riddance. I never got what the judges saw in her. Another Glee club/chorus line singer, IMNSHO.

yes Lurk Adams outsings this year's group hands down. None this year are outstanding to me. So it doesn't matter to me who goes home every week cause at this point I don't think any of them should win.

Big Mike wasn't in the bottom 3....we all ran to the phone! I don't really want to remember who Brooke was after that horrid performance she gave tonight. Plus I hate what she did to Justin's big shot. If I were him I'd want to murder her. At least he sounded good on the few seconds he got to sing alone. I think he's the most talented in that I Can Dream house.

Last season, Adam Lambert was the first Idol contestant I'd ever seen in all of the seasons who made me sit up and take notice immediately. And from the very beginning I thought he was a winner (great performer, great singer, great personality). I think Adam was a fluke, because this season it seems we're back to a total (mostly) lackluster group of singers. To me, Crystal is the lone standout this season, but not nearly like Adam was last season. I do think Crystal is the best singer out of this entire crew, and I hope she DOESN'T win so she can go do her own thing and not be shackled by the chains that AI binds the winners with. The sad thing is, when I come here to be spoiled on the performance nights? When y'all start talking about one of the singers, I actually can't remember anything most of them have done. Totally unforgettable in so many ways. (And often, I have to go look at the pics to see who's who.)

Anyone know how tall Casey is? He was towering over everyone on stage, even Big Mike (who I don't think is as tall as he is, well, big, lol). Cruz, I do think Crystal, Casey and Lee have some legit talent and I'd like to see them make it to the end. But they definitely don't compare to Adam. How are you still watching? If I didn't like any of them, not sure I'd be able to watch (sort of how I barely made it through them butchering Elvis all night lolol).

Good job, Lurk! (voting for Mike) I noticed that Ryan didn't say that they were the bottom 3.

TYVM Just! LOL when I saw that DialIdol had only him and Crystal safe I then switched over to Casey for a bit, cause I didn't want him leaving on a fluke with no save left in play. In case you missed it, Ryan specifically said that the person not leaving was not even in the bottom 3! (makes me think Dial Idol was right...but they are usually pretty accurate on AI, not so much on DWTS probably cause of how the voting differs for the show, IE being all phone).

Costa, I agree with you on Adam. Watching him perform makes realize what is missing from this season...IMO!!!!! I will never forget when he performed Mad World. Unbelievable! Probably my favorite AI performance ever.

LURK I always tape it and either watch after or start watching half way. That way I can FF when things get really bad. I guess I stay watching cause there isn't much else on and the fact that I can keep hoping one of these weeks someone will surprise me. LOL

Lurk, I did listen to last night's show. (And fast forwarded through most of it.) For the first time in weeks. And I'm really sorry I did. I think I'll just let all you guys spoil it for me. If I hear of any of you all just saying "OMG OMG THAT WAS THE BEST EVER!", then I'll watch the show that night. But I'm just not entertained by these people. Including Lee and Casey, who I think have nice voices but are seriously lacking in the charisma department. So, I very much thank all of you for spoiling!!! Hehehe!

Cruz, fair enough. I guess I'm running out of patience with some reality shows when I no longer like contestants. After Boston Rob was voted off I almost stopped watching Survivor (finally after about 2 days when I was bored I watched it). So I was legitimately curious. Costa, just wanted to make sure you knew you could be watching it when we are....plus your ears can bleed alongside ours lolol Well, I'm deeply annoyed with myself. Just went to take dinner out of the oven to find that I never put it in. GRRRRRR. Gonna be a late supper here. I decided to pre-heat until the next commercial then forgot about that decision. DUH me!

Oh btw ITA that this is a very mellow, lackluster year of performers. Isn't it ironic that in Hollywood it seemed like it would be the most talented bunch. Then they got here and all forgot how to sing. What is up w/that? I still think they need to up the age limit. IE I bet if Katie did this in a few more years, after she developed more of a style, had more training and life experience, she would have been much better than the raw talent we saw. While charisma isn't an age thing, life experience can be helpful for it. Ok off to toss food in the oven for real this time lol

This was Elvis week, dammit! I get the feeling that some of these younger singers do not really understand Elvis. Oh, they know who he is, they know he is a music icon, and have heard some of his songs, but they just don't really get what those of us who were young ourselves when Elvis hit the big time do. The only ones of them to put the feeling into the songs anywhere close to the way Elvis did were Mike and Chrystal. And to some extent, Lee. The rest were pale shadows of Elvis himself. Anthony and Aaron were embarrasing. They actually made me cringe. Did Anthony not realize that Hound Dog is an angry song, not a ballad, and Aaron sounded like a very poor Elvis impersonator. I am so glad Mike stayed and I am so over Tim and Casey. Neither one has done anything to impress me for weeks. I get frustrated realizing that because they are young and "hot" they will stay longer than the singers with better talent. But it happens every year so why should I be surprised. I really believe the best bet this season for a career as a real star are Lee and Chyrstal. The rest will probably have nice careers in the music industry but those are the only two I think have star quality.

I am doing the happy dance Tim stayed. I used to like Mike but he is going down hill. Hopefully he can pick it up next week. Same for Siobhan. I used to think she could be in the finals but she has dropped off.

I hate that they used the save already. There is always some flukey vote when they get down to 6 or 7 people. I felt very sorry for Katie, because basically using the save sent her home.

Loved Adam's performance tonight, it was captivating. He made the hairs on my arms stand up. I also like how greatful he was to AI. Other than him it was a boring episode that I fast forwarded through for the most part.

We were not, probably still not, big Adam fans. That said, have to admit that he was quite good last night and certainly the highlight of a pretty blah episode. We're beginning to wonder if AI has run out of steam. Maybe it's just this year as there isn't one really outstanding talent but maybe it's just gotten old.

Didn't watch the show last night but just saw the vid of Adam's performance. This current crop of contestants could learn a lot from him... how to control your voice, how to control when you are yelling, how to bring the audience in so that they don't want to stop listening. Mack, I kinda agree about the run out of steam thing. Along with Ellen (who I love but who adds nothing but comedic relief) and Simon's leaving next season, the lackluster group of singers just doesn't seem to really inspire me to want to watch. Maybe it's a let down from last season, where I was glued to the tube to watch Adam's performances. I dunno. I do know AI is down in the ratings, and other shows airing the same time slot are moving up, so it's not just me.
