Okay.....let's start picking our Idol winners !! I watched a bit of the men's show tonite ( one more singer to go actually) My 1st impression is.....young....immature group......I'm thinking a woman is definitely this years winner..... I keep hearing them say " stongest voices ever"....well. I wasn't blown away tonight. and PS.....is Paula extra wacked out or what ? She is barely coherent !!! LMAO !!

Allisa, I watched bits and pieces of it...I gotta say, I like the Aussie Singer...(the last guy performing tonite). He reminds me of Michael Hutchinson from INXS. I'll watch the girls tomorrow nite.

I've been addicted to American Idol for years, but this year I'm SO intoo "The Biggest Loser" that I can't seem to care about American Idol.........yet. I've scanned through a few of the shows, but don't have any favorites yet. As soon as Biggest Loser is over, I'll be able to concentrate better!!

Susan, Me too! I love the "Biggest Loser"...thats why I didn't see all of American Idol. I kept switching when the commercials came on. Who do you think will win the Biggest Loser? I'd like to see Kelly win, but I think it may be one of the guys on the Blue Team...they are incredibly strong! Their numbers were phenomenal! I'd love to go on the show, but I would be afraid they'd find me along the mountain trail somewhere, crawling, tongue hanging out, begging for a hershey's almond bar! Doesn't make for pretty TV!

David A & Jason C are my current fav's, but having seen the auditions, I have to say that lots of those guys showed poorly on their first vote night. They were all very, very good during all the elimination process, so I expected much more last night.
I hope the girls show their stuff better on their first night.

I have never been an Idol watcher...but Susan talked me into it...then she defected and went to Biggest Loser...LOL. And here I tuned in so we could discuss it...LOL.
I liked the last three last nite...sorry can't remember names...The one who looks like Ellen...the kid with the pretty face and long hair...and the Aussie who I think is terrific. I prefer to hear men sing cuz the women get all trilly and take their voices all over the place like it is a gymnastics event...LOL. The guys are better at sticking to the song. But guess I will watch them tonite and might change my mind.

LOL Allissa, I always think that about Paula... I was hoping they would put the kid that lived in his car thru to the top 24, but he messed that up himself by not practicing and then dismissing the band for his audition.. I don't know what he was thinking... I think the aussie guy is good too, but I haven't had a chance to watch the men perform yet. I am still downloading that episode. I don't really have an opinion on the women yet. that will soon be changing I'm sure...

well, I think the girls ALL rocked.....there were a few that could go home & wouldn't be missed....but there were some really good ones..... It stinks that they keep it even between the boys & girls....I think the bottom four should leave....regardless if they are men or women...... I like the IRish girl ( the one that sang last )....BUT.....although she has a GREAT voice.....she seems almost too classical or something.....I coulnd't even tell you what song she sang ?? Well......we'll see tomorrow..... I've NEVER EVER voted even though I watch all the time....and now I have AT&T for my wireless.....can I text for free ? Does anyone want to volunteer theri time to teach me how to text ?? LOL

I liked a few of the girls. I'm a rocker at heart, so I liked the "rocker chic". I also liked the girl who seems to be of Phillipino descent. She has a big voice for such a tiny girl. The last girl was good too, but she almost seems too professional.

The nurse who is a rocker (two-tone hair) is from my neck of the woods, so I'm glad she's so good. She has a good chance of making it to the top 3 - and then... concert in the hometown!! Woo hoo. Here's hoping I did not see the girls - wednesdays are so bad for us - except for the last one, and I did not like her. She gave a forgettable, though technically good, performance. Jackie, the one with the long dreadlocks & dreamy eyes is Jason C, I think. He is one of my favs too. So at home on stage, likeable, and a great singer. Myria, I agree about the kid who blew it with dismissing the band. Maybe he'll be back next year. He has lots of potential.

I was so hoping the nurse rocker would get booted off tonightl. I do not like her at all. I was glad that the pretty girl who couldn't sing in tune was voted off. I think the judges put a lot of emphasis on beauty for the girls. Too bad it really isn't a singing competition.

I had my monthly movie night with my cousins & aunts....so I missed most of it....saw the very very end....looked like the boy who said he looked like Ellen Degeneres ( and he REALLY DID !!) and the Leif Garrett look-a-like. FOr the women it was the heavy-set black woman who sang second the night before and a girl with dark hair....I forget her name....she wasn't very good and her performance as Simon would say is forgettable..... www.americanidol.com/ Modified to add: It is amazing that American Idol can command THREE nights of television per week !! There is no other show that can do that !
