I guess if the show is this bad already....I'm not going to bother watching it when it comes on here. Can't stand Astro and just the thought the judges are fawning over him makes me not want to watch it all the more.

None of the three Jackson kids looked thrilled at Astro's performance. Very lukewarm clapping and blank expressions on their faces. I just don't get the judge's fawning over this boy. He always does the same thing. I didn't get any Michael Jackson out of his performance. I may quit watching this show.......

I think they overproduce them all. The thing with Marcus was particularly bad, he has a good voice but he just couldn't keep up with all that choreography and fireworks. I thought Melanie was best of the night, Drew was good but is getting repetitive now, and Josh should stay because of past appearances, if not this one. I hope Rachel and Chris are safe, I think this week Chris was actually better than Rachel even though Rachel is the better singer. I want Astro and Marcus to go. I can't help thinking how wonderful LeRoy would have been singing one of Michael's ballads.

I miss LeRoy. How old is Blanket, he just sat there with a Blank (pun intended lol) stare. The other kids are did well with the questions, seem bright, and interested. And who in H E double hockey sticks names their child Blanket and why are they allowed to, there needs to be a law. lol I thought Chris Renee and Melanie did the best last night. I like Chris Renees story but am not a huge fan of his music, Melanie I think has the best voice on the show. I think Astro and Marcus are in the most trouble tonight. Sure hope Astro has the lowest votes because if Drew or Chris or even Rachel are against him I don't think he will be safe. I can't even comprehend them choosing him over Josh or Melanie. But hey I thought LeRoy would still be around.

I actually thought Drew did an excellent job last night. And, I adore Melanie. Her voice is the best in the whole competition and she seems to be growing in confidence as a performer. I also agree with Simon that they don't always need all the broohaha to present the song....just let their talent and voice shine through. I think that is what he was trying to do with Drew and with Melanie. Unfortunately, Rachel did not stand out last night, although I still like her. She is the total package and I'm sure she will have a great career in the music industry. I'm praying that my wish comes true in the double elimination tonight and I can say "bye bye" to Astro!

If the judges get to save someone every week, won't it be Astro to the end? Don't like him, don't like his attitude. Talking fast rap is not singing, in my opinion.

Based on last night performances, this is my order, although I LOVE Josh and hope him for the win, last night with all the female dancers was a huge distraction from his wonderful voice. Last night, in order, who I feel did the best: 1. Melanie 2. Chris 3. Drew 4. Josh 5. Marcus 6. Rachel 7, Astro Rachel is much better than her performance last night, I hope she will be safe.

I didn't particularly enjoy last nights show. i thought Melanie, Drew & Chris did the best job. I hope Astro and Marcus go home but I doubt it will happen. LA is so rude to Drew. he couldn't even be nice last night while complimenting her. I read somewhere that Kelly Rowland on the UK show might trade places with Nicole. Hope that happens. Didn't understand a word that Astro said . . . and no, it is not singing. MJ had beautiful kids. Especially Paris. I thought they all lacked any kind of emotion though. If that is truly their "favorite" show, it didn't show.

so, is is just me? I tired to adjust the sound on my TV, but all the singers seemed drowned out by being over produced. I could not tell if anyone was really on key because mostly I heard the band or the back up singers. I can never watch the whole show because the sound annoys me. I tried last night because I like MJ's music, but I don't think anyone did it justice. I always heard MJ's voice soar above the music, but no one did that last night.

Missed Astro last night - dont care, just wondering - did he just make up his own "poem" to scream out with MJ music in back ground, or did he scream out the lyrics to one of MJ's songs with the music in background? wow, how in the heck either way would that be singing an MJ song???????? go home astro!!!!!!! who's voting for him?

Is it just me or was it fight with Simon last night. Paula has to go she is crazy. She just wanted to fight. It all seemed so staged. I have no idea what Astro sang or poemed or whatever he did. But the judges loved it. I was confused.

Astro used some of the original lyrics and did his own bit around them. I liked his earlier performances (including the one that got him in the bottom two) but these last two have been pretty bad. He does deserve to be at the bottom. I noticed when watching The Sing Off this year that if I watched it on tv it sounded worse (strangely) than if I watched it on my laptop. I think we're seeing that same effect magnified many times between the live performance the judges see and what we see on screen. I think they get wowed by it all and don't listen to the artist as much as the entire spectacle of it all. When Simon says "when you watch that back on television..." I think he's usually right.

Well just checked Dial Idol, has bottom 4 as, Marcus, then Josh, Drew, and Astro in bottom, so none of them have many pts. This surprises me, I would have thought Josh would have more supporters. Hopefully Marcus will be in bottom 3 because I would hate to see Josh and Drew in bottom 2, Drew would probably go home by the judges, and I don't think it is her time yet. Top 3 are Melanie, Chris and then Rachel in that order, which doesn't surprise me. At this point I feel bad for any of them leaving, imagine getting this far and losing. I don't want any of them to go , ok, let me ammend that, I want Astro going if I am being honest, just don't like saying it cause he is a kid and don't want to pick on a kid. You know what would be a show that I would tune into, a variety type show, featuring differant performers from the past idol, x factor , america got talent, a kind of where are they now , what are they doing, mic it up, have them perform, I think that would be interesting.

Melanie was clearly the best last night! Chris was good too & thought Drew had one of her best nights (I agree though that she needs to move around a little & possibly speed things up a little - has anyone ever heard Billie Jean sang so ssssssssllllllllooooooowwwwwww!) I want Astro to be the one with the lowest votes so there is no way we'll have to hear him "talk" a song in the sing off. I think the judges would save him against Marcus or Drew. I really hope that Josh is safe. I agree that Nicole, as a mentor is hurting him! When will they do away with the whole mentor thing?

That's wild how the judges think last night was incredible. It was awful except for maybe 2 acts.
