It is so obvious that the producers and judges are grooming their favorites for the final 2 – Adam & Danny. I mean, come on, Adam was good, excellent in fact…but a standing ovation? seriously?
And if you missed Adam’s performance go watch it on Rickey’s site.
Rickey.org
or go to youtube.
Don’t miss out!
The DVR cut off even before they came back from the commercial break for Adam, I am LIVID! C’mon, AI, you run more than 5 minutes over? Shut Kara up and let the best contestants get their fair share of air time!
I heart Anoop. Kris is out, according to DialIdol, which is so unfair, especially since he’s been so great the last few weeks and Scott and Lil are consistently bad. The judges won’t save him either, bc he isn’t named Adam (aka Screech) or Danny (aka Creepy Dead Wife Exploiter).
Still so thrilled they bagged the judges introductions, they were so self-indulgent, as Simon would say.
MATT GIRAUD for the WIN!
Adam and Allison-simply the BEST! Buh-bye Lil and Danny soon I hope!
Vote Kris 1-855 436-5702 !!!!
He’s in last place Vote now!
So Slezak, commenter Bobby is dead on. my dvr ended at 62 minutes as well, so no Adam performance. My friends are texting that it was THE performance of the season. How is idol going to fix this? Or will it not matter since he will get enough votes regardless?
Adam is amazing.
Alison is amazing.
Anoop is amazing.
Everyone else kinda puts me to sleep. Matt Giraud is good, but still kinda blah.
Granted, Kris’ song choice was kinda lame, but he sang it in tune, unlike Lil, ever week!!! Who in the heck is voting for her? I guess she’s got the hearing impaired vote.
and because stupid AI ran long, dvr cut off the end of Fringe!!!
Adam was positively BRILLIANT tonight. B-R-I-L-L-I-A-N-T. As for the length – the contestants only get 90 seconds to perform, the judges should be limited to half that each.
DVRs cutting off Adam is a major issue. SOOOO irritating too.
Allison and Matt were my favorites tonight. I did not really get Adam’s performance, although I admit he is talented. Scott and Lil were the bottom two by miles. I am thinking maybe Anoop will join them in the bottom 3. I am glad the judges finally recognized that Lil’ is not all that.
I also voted for the first time this season and am worried because I got through 10 times in a row for Kris. So he wasn’t great, but this was his first miss while Lil and Scott have been cringeworthy for weeks! Judges MUST save him if he is in the bottom.
