Still loving the judges this year. It has totally turned the show around for me. ITA Jimmer. I rarely used to watch the audition rounds before but I've found it all quite compelling this time. Kudos to the new and improved judging panel.

I just love seeing what JLo is going to wear! She's so gorgeous! That "sweet young boy" actually won Baton Rouge Idol. That sounds like a pretty big deal. I felt like he was physically and emotionally exhausted toward the end of Hollywood week. Hope he gets stronger, cause I really like him. Don't see him going all the way, though.

Going to Vegas and participating in a Beatles "Love" stage thing - don't think of it as a theme (even though it will be). Think of it as a big giant product placement opportunity, which is all it is. They will be singing on the show stage so they are stuck with this one. Like the Target challenge on Top Chef.

Well of course it IS a huge product placement but if people are sent home after that, for them it may well be a theme week gone wrong. But it should be a great experience, for those who don't fall victim to it. And hopefully those who do will be those on the cusp anyway. I don't really care, just odd that they made an issue of no theme weeks. More like no theme weeks except when we want one.

I agree, Sea, and I get what you are saying. It's also kinda like, no theme weeks except for the week when we get huge product placement tie-in dollars. lol

The problem with the sweet young boy...he will get votes just because he is a sweet young boy, regardless of whether he has the long--term ability to be the Idol. Sorry, I disagree about the deep-voiced guy. I was amazed at how well he sang in group round. But that's my type of voice...love those deep gravely singers! Simon let people through who forgot their lyrics if he felt it was just a fluke. He went back to the body of work. He didn't tolerate it in the live shows thhough.

The top 24 has alledgedly been leaked. Some of you may want to be restrained when you see who didn't make it.

I couldn't disagree more with the judges assessment of The Long and Winding Road. I thought it was butchered.

KL, I wouldn't consider that a spoiler since I heard it on the news this morning.

Is this stuff live now (or at least same day)?

I'm refering to Casey Abrams. I thought the elimination shows and the finale are live but everything else is pre-taped. I could be wrong.

Chris Medina was just on local Fox L.A. Ch. 11. He will be on the Tonight Show Friday night, singing a song a music producer has written for him. It will be available on iTunes (the single).

It's not live until about two weeks into the Top 24 shows. Even next Wed/Thu is not live - now that Nigel is back, he hates the shows going over, as they did so often last season. The shows will be pre-taped (same day) until a few of the Top 24 have been eliminated and they can better control the timing.

The men are supposed to tape tomorrow for next week's show. There is no word yet on whether or not Casey will be eliminated due to his hospitalization.

Is Haley the girl that cried during her audition and JLo let her sing another song?

There are several through to final 24 who are quite annoying. Casey is NOT annoying and it would be majorly sad to lose him for the season. I'm afraid that if Casey is out they will bring back the moonfaced young boy.. I just read in our paper that they are adding in Facebook voting. I swear Facebook is like an unstoppable fungus. Somehow the columnist opines that this will bring in older voters?

Of the last three boys, I really thought they would take Colton. JC is sweet, but not a very strong singer. And Brett just does not seem like Idol material to me. As much as I would hate to see Casey go (he is very, very talented), I would love if they would bring back Colton. I was really shocked that they kept Brett over him.

I am surprised they kept Brett too...I can only guess it is because of his story of being bullied...but quite honestly I'm just not that sympathetic to him, and I am not that impressed with his voice either...it is good but I don't find it outstanding, nor do I find him "Idol" material. I am glad also that Jacee is gone...I just feel like he needs to mature some more. I hope Casey can make it to the live show...he is so very talented! So far none of these 24 stands out to me...it should be interesting to see them next week to see who can bring it and who can't. I have some favorites but not one single favorite.

Has there been any word on whether Casey has been released from the hospital for today's taping?

On another site, they said he has been released and is back. I don't know where that came from, but that is what was posted.
