CHEESY SING-A-LONGS!!! WITH BAD DANCING!!! PAINFULLY SLOW RESULTS!!! BAD SINGERS SING AFTER BEING SHOWN THE EXIT!!! PRESS "MUTE" NOW BECAUSE THIS - IS AMERICAN IDOL!!!
Tonight was pretty easy. Any one of 37 guys could have gone home so the fact that one of them isn't Tim Urban is only mildly annoying.
As for the ladies, Diandra's flatline icon for Janell turned out to be prophetic. What we can learn from the ladies - which applies to the guys too - is that wrong song (Janell) or bad performance (Ashley) can doom you even if you are a better singer than other competitors. Of course, the aforementioned warnings didn't seem to apply to Tim Urban who was lucky that there were 63 other guys as bad as him last night including Tyler Grady.
Props to Kris Allen for going to Haiti and for a pretty rendition of Let It Be which I know made the Kris Lovin' Ladies of Scottsbluff* quite proud. And do I love me some Allison or what? She is a great example of how much better Idol contestants get as they move through the process. If you haven't checked out her very fine CD, you really need to.
* The Kris Lovin' Ladies have formally announced that they are now the Casey Lovin' Ladies. I have been assured that the name change in no way implies any less love for Kris. The name change does, however, assure me of another season of exasperation.

Lurker here finally getting in on this season's mix! Unfortunately came in when the show was half over tonight so didn't get to see Allison. I must say, I did enjoy Kris Allen's performance.
I agree with all of the eliminations tonight. At this point I can't tell who my favorite gal is but my favorite guy is Andrew. I hope he kicks it in gear next week. They really need to drop the cougar bit with Kara though. It's distracting and cheesy.
Can't wait for next week when I don't have the Olympic distraction.
No major surprises for me re who was sent home.
I agree with your post.
The Washington Post ought to supplant Lisa Morales and her bland posts with you and Diandra. Lisa is more of an Idol gossip columnist than a knowledgeable critiquer.
SHE is really boring.
EDIT:
Meant to say Lisa de Moraes
I had high hopes for Tyler Grady, but he certainly had an awful first performance, so I get that he went home. I had to laugh when they showed him at rehearsal in his white robe and boots! I hope next week some contestants will recover from their nerves and show us why they're part of the Top 24. Meanwhile, so far I'm rooting for Crystal, Siobhan, Lilly, Andrew, and Casey (sorry). lol
