wow what a surprise (NOT) LOL. Thanks so much you guys for this! Tweety, the guys had to buy out all the local Dunkin donuts for their flavour. The girls used inhouse ingredients for their Red Velvet flavour. Stacey is a very loose cannon again. Now they are trying to sell it.(one of the girls went over to talk to the guys and read all of their agenda for tomorrow for selling so they are taking advantage of that.) ETA that brings you right up to date. Commercial now.

Thanks for spoiling Tweety! I had to take a call. Man, the medley the top ten did of Canadian songs was awesome. I have to say, I enjoyed spin on Sundown.

Thanks, Jan. OT. I can't believe Stacy is this year's Omarossa. Beav - it's always nice when there's a happy ending.

I always missed the results shows too. I recorded them and went to the CTV site to find out who was dropped before watching my tape, because I couldn't bear to see the pain, but I did want to see this one, and had to choose between this and Survivor, and Survivor won, because I knew I could find out who won soon enough. BUT IT ISN'T ON THE CTV SITE YET!!! So here I am and VERY GRATEFUL for the spoiling! Thanks Tweety and Scorpiomoon. I'm in complete agreement with everyone who thinks our finalists were great - they sure as heck are, and I watched my first American Idol this year, as well as my first Canadian, and my immediate reaction was how great all of ours were, any one of them, almost, could have won on AI! I think Theresa and Kalan are both terrific, and wish they could both have won, but Theresa's voice, although really wonderful, isn't the kind that makes a rock star, so I think the right one won, because of being the best voice for the criteria of the show. It's so funny, because I was always surprised by the results on AI but always right at the results on OUR show, we all felt the same way, us viewers, and voted accordingly. For weeks I had these two picked in my mind, and to be honest, I had to favour Kalan because he's our hometown boy, from Alburda! Boy, I wish I'd recorded CI now, waah! Does anyone think that they might rerun it???

Oh, by the way, Medicine Hat had a population of over 50,000 in 2002, so a crowd of 4,000 is not too bad considering!

Have to agree with everyone, our top 10 are the best and most talented of any of the idols I've seen and Kalan will definitely do Canada proud as will Theresa. I hope there's a world idol this year lol.

i'm going to read all this thread later, but i did flip and wondered why Zach wasn't there. It was Rosh Hashanah yesterday(and today), Sha na toe va(phonetically spelt), or Happy New Year to all concerned, still surprised he missed it though.

Just want to tell everyone that this thread has been a lot of fun this year as it was last year and hope we do it again next year. As I was watching the show last night during the group numbers I thought, geez I would be proud of any of the top ten winning. I was so impressed with Theresa and the way she handled Kalan winning, What a good sport she was, she seems genuinely happy for him. Please let there be a World Idol, I just want the world to see that Canada really does have a lot of Talent, I will be very happy to see Kalan wow the world.

This show has been excellent. The top 10 were great last night. Kalan, way to go buddy, good luck. Theresa, I think you were the best. I definitely had tears in my eyes watching the grace and poise of these young people.

First of all I would like to thank everyone who dropped in on this thread for enhancing CI and making it truly more enjoyable for me. I just finished watching my tape of the show and I was very impressed it was a fantastic two hours imo. A couple of thoughts comments: Watching all ten sing again both together and seperately I was struck by what a fantastic eclectic group of talented people they are. Everyone was so diverse and a joy to listen to at one time or another, so very very different than the AI experience. I was really bowled over and wowed by them. Frankly I feel like I am going to miss them alot. A whole group of people that I let into my living room each week are going to be gone. I was really moved by Kalan singing nature boy and seeing his father mouthing the words in the audience. It also brought a tear to my eye how Theresa looked out for her mom at the good mother line in her song, her mom looked like she barely had a grip on it. This whole group really seemed to care for each other. The fact that we may have helped start several peoples careers on their way in singing, writing and playing is very satisfying to me and I wish them all well. I cannot say how proud I feel of this group of Canadians (is that silly, if so I don't care) I really felt a great deal of pride watching how these people conduted themselves. (two of them kind of annoyed me as they seemed to have developed a swagger that makes me go hmm, but I digress) Kalan and Teresa's duet was lovely, Kalan seemed to sing to her like she was the most beautiful thing he had ever laid eyes on. All in all, a terrific season and I can't wait to see where their careers take them and what the talent pool will be next year.

On a side note, I enjoyed Ryan's performance as well (geez he really looked thin though) and hope he can move on in a direction he would like to go in. Impressive numbers, 3.6 million votes, 32 million overall. The judges said some really lovely things as well. Whatever happens to these top 10 they should all be very proud of themselves. I was listening to CHUM FM this am and they had Kalan on, Marilyn mentionned that CI had quite the cult following in the states, that they think it surpasses AI, anyone heard anything about this. I'm not dogging AI I enjoy it as well, but CI is just different, it feels like family. I really liked that Jake had kind words for Ben and Jon as well.
