You are not prepared.@#$% that. I am not prepared. I'm not even supposed to be here tonight! Y'know something? The Worsters are right. Let's break this thing and shove the pieces -- -- I may not be in the right mood to tolerate this carp. But since this generally hasn't stopped me before, let's get to the opening credits and let the svckage begin. Because, y'know, as long as we're going down, let's take Steven's theoretical taste in musical performance with us. Scenes of childhood and auditions. The landslide goat bleats brought them down. Steven in black tonight. He's in mourning for his influence. Either Heejun went or he did, and both of them are still here. So obviously that means Steven must go. As soon as the checks stop coming. The stage is disturbingly gold. Most of the contestants have gone in black or white with very few highlights or other shades. Because Wardrobe is afraid to try anything else. And Wardrobe is Tommy. Who may not be aware of any other colors. Tommy claims the contestants found their own image this week. Which is kind of like giving a kid a set of twelve tiles with bits of clothing embossed on them and letting them pretend to be a fashion designer, only with a lot more money involved and even less variety of body types. And we begin. Why?

4. "Death slot: Colton" |
Doing Everything, Lighthouse. Because he has faith. For starters, he has faith in the script. Starting off very slowly. James' red ear disease has moved to Colton's hair. Violinists in the background. Very talented violinists, outshining Colton and his glowing hair, both of which are doing more of a 'speaking sort of on rhythm' thing than singing. I listen to the violins and think of Tyler Clementi. There are now fabric banners hanging from the ceiling. I don't know why. None of them are concealing Colton, so there goes their only purpose in life. I keep waiting for him to ask for money. Steven tells Colton he's a dream come true and sings a song like it should be sung, which is apparently 'not at all'. But Steven will praise anyone tonight as long as they're not Heejun. And given that kind of sincerity anti-launch, do we really need to pay any attention to what the other two say? Yes. Randy just brought up Colton's earlier auditions. And then he talks about 'believability'. We are supposed to believe the show did not steal this script from Simon. The script does not exist. Neither does Simon. And when it comes to believability, nor does Randy. Vote for Colton. Because he has faith. You have to believe that. Or else.

7. "Skylar." |
So with the svck-up to the heartland complete -- 'Don't be afraid of my skunk hair! I'm one of you! Wait, I'll prove it by taking out one of the non-Caucasians!' -- we move on to Skylar.(By the way, Colton was worshiping a false Idol. Just saying.) Taking on Miranda Lambert. Coming down the stairs between graphics of newspaper headlines. Tommy cannot get his fashion eyes off her hips to save what used to be his life. Skylar cannot get any energy into this song to save hers. This is coming across as something that should be the country equivalent of a pure belter and she's just barely managing suspenders. Sing something by the spouse of a competing panelist? The sound system will take you down! Or maybe that's just her voice... Overall, competent -- but lacking in necessary power and without the total emotional commitment she needed to sell this. So naturally Jennifer's buying. Jennifer will buy anything that comes along because she only has two shows right now and her wardrobe requires a minimum of five. Randy is saying something about telling a story. Gosh, maybe he'll talk about editing too.

12. "Filler: trio." |
Is Snidget back yet? The show is back. Why can't the show not get in until 8:30? Colton, Elise, Phillip. Singing Landslide to start off a Fleetwood Mac medley. Swaybots! More Swaybots! Can't find the singers for the Swaybots! They're getting older too. But not as old as this show has gotten. And nowhere near as old as the target audience demographic, which is edging towards deceased. Sings a song, says I can't sing it, too, baby, too, too... Don't stop thinking about tomorrow! Because that's when one of these delusional brainwash victims is going home! Top of the line songs, says Steven! Nailed them, says Steven! I am so stoned I don't even know where I am, implies Steven! Loudly! Next up...

13. "Heejun." |
Forgive him, America! So plead Jimmy and Stevie. He won't try to be funny! He won't try to be energetic! He won't try to be anything you'd think about voting for! Steven has an out clause in his contract and it has to be paid in cocaine!And then Heejun becomes the first performer of the season to take the stage while stoned out of his mind on downers. At least, the first amateur. I don't know this song. (It is a ballad. It is generic. It is slow. It would knock Pia out all over again. )I barely recognize the singer. He has no energy. He has no personality. He has falling leaves in the background and they're displaying more movement than he is. He has been turned into a generic IdolClone. All individuality has been removed, very possibly at gunpoint. Steven loves him now. Or loves that Heejun will now never sell a download for the rest of his career. And -- Jennifer backlashes? Just a little, sure, and Randy immediately tries to sweep out her legs -- but Jennifer is solidly implying she wants the old Take The Urine Out Of Everything Heejun back. I wonder if we have Worsters in mourning right now. I wonder if Jennifer has turned into one of them. If he'd declared Weird Al as his personal idol and gone for Amish Paradise, I might have voted for hours...

Yes, Steve said nice things to Heyjun, but his expression AFTER his comments told the real story. When Jlo was talking, Steve looked like he was choking on what he had just said or something. Very unhappy with himself/what it takes to earn the AI paycheck.

What is that pop, like a finger snap, kind of annoying. Wow, they areally are filming so all you see is swaybots, who cares who is singing, there are hands to fill up the screen with.Fog machine is working overtime as well. So emotion is gesticulating forcefully with the hand not on the microphone, good to know. R. Didn't know you were a Carrie Fan. Dangerous taking on idol winner songs, did a good job of it, couple of pitchy moments in the lower range. To help her grow. Can correct it later, afraid of you singing that, Carrie sang the you know what out of it. I'm impressed. J. Disagree with Randy. That was one of your best, I've heard her sing the big notes, matters about your heart, I felt it emotionally, one of your best. S. Between both of you. Not mess with Jesus or Carrie. Wish you sang a different song. It was just OK for me. Picked up on the passion, didn't hear the full range of your voice.

19. "Hollie." |
Just checked in with VFTW. They are unhappy. They're showing an odd combination of bored and pissed. They wanted Heejun to bring the mockery and instead, he brought the Sominex. They do not feel like voting for a pod person. Some discussion of switching the pick, as he has not tried to keep their luv. Poor Worsters.No, seriously. They kind of have a point. Hollie is going with Jesus take the wheel, which I am trying not to translate as Window Take The Remote. Stevie wants Hollie to sing this as if her mother just died, like Stevie's did. Can you name three mentors who would have killed Hollie's mother to get the right effect? (Note that Nigel doesn't count. Totally would have done it, but still doesn't count.) Fingers, take the earplugs... Once again, Hear the legends of the kung-fu pander! Well, her mother's not going to die from embarrassment, but pride isn't getting within a state of fatal either. Trying to make up for skill and emotion with volume. Apparently she's picturing the pain and agony of Stevie's song view by imagining someone kicking her in the shin on every other note. No, every other note. Randy says something vaguely constructive and semi-critical. The audience boos. The audience is trying to use Skinner training tactics, even though there might be three people in it who believe they know what I just meant and two of them are thinking about Dexter. Claim any contestant is less than perfect and hear our wrath! No one should go home in any week! Because they're all that perfect! And the audience is drugged! It's not as if you can sway like that when you're sober. If you want to vote for Hollie, Jesus will strike you down. Colton's Jesus. There can be no other. You will know him by his glowing hair. And the fact that he's striking you down. Right now, 'entertainingly bad' is turning into the goal of the night.

Fog and Falsetto and spinning cameras Oh, and apparently the rented the spotlights for the season, so they are back. Someone must know the safeword. Bueller? S. 100% Passion, what your voice was meant to do. Didn't quite put it in that perspective, gave prince a run for his money. J. Special voice, pick up your phones and vote (maybe she is a worster) some of the things you did went to the heart, crazy. R. Every flavor under the rainbow. Throwback, R&B, happy to see you come back to that, and what you should do. Heejun is back in the house and so is Deandre

In four words: Worsters, switch the pick. It wasn't entertaining, but migawd, it was bad. (Will I get censored if I take their word and call that falshitto? Let's find out!)If the Worsters can be bothered. And I quote one of their site administrators, thefunnystone: "I'll be honest - I'm ready to check out. I'm not sure if I can keep my TV on the rest of the night. This is not watchable." Think about what was just said and who said it. Ouch. Randy's rainbow does not have any room for singing. Or that kind of honesty. I want to strangle DeAndre by stuffing his hair down his throat. But it might improve his singing. Couldn't hurt.

27. "RE: Jessica Sanchez" |
Red doors behind her, harp for accompianment.Doors, I really want to see Twitch dancing with one. Anything to distract from the dirgifying of yet another song on a "talent" show. Can we make them stop, please. We do not need every song turned into a dirge, really. We aren't that depressed. She went behind a door, can she stay there, nope she comes back out. I think getting the advice from behind a door would be amusing. J. Beyonce will say I gotta do that. Beautiful job. Where you would sing on forever but you didn't, left me wanting more. S. Great performance, beautiful dress, you are a star no matter what. You did it again tonight, held it back, you know your notes. Pushes you guys to your limits. Got some more great in you, delicious. R. Stars are truly born, the maturity you have, where do you learn that, I look forward to hearing you every night. I love the resolve you used not to go there with the big notes every week. Beautiful story, Colton threw down the gauntlet, she wants it too.

You know that much electrical sparking when it is raining should be enough to kill someone, anyone.Standing O from the judges. Do.Not.Want. J. Too much. Standing up too much. When you sing that you want the music to come first, I feel that when you are performing, experience it with you. Makes everything else goes away, present when you sing. Make everything go away. Amazing. S. In your body and soul and someone in there trying to climb out. R. Name Drops, this competition has every flavor, bluesy thing, I love you, love the artist and individuality. Being an artist is about being individual today (as if that was never true at any other time in history)

53. "RE: Phillip Phillips" |
Well, since you mention it, why do you watch the show? You don't seem to like anyone's performances, ever. ???As for P2, I disagree about his being TCO. This year a girl has a good shot at the win. If Jessica, then Hollie is her "shield", meaning when Hollie gets eliminated her votes migrate to Jessica. I am happy there are so many performers worth listening to on a week by week basis. Certainly it helped that they got to choose from a broad theme this week instead of everyone having to sing Elton. And note that many of them (all of them?) sang songs they were already very well familiar with before idol and videos of their singing those songs can be found on you tube. That made for a better show last night (recalling the two-weeks-in-a row Beatles theme that AI7 was saddled with performing. Imagine Heyjun or Deandre singing Beatles 2 weeks in a row!). I am enjoying Joshua, Hollie, P2 and Elise, Jessica and Colton are interesting, and Skylar, Heyjun and Deandre are capable of having something watchable, too.

Everyone pushing beyond their limits, you have an emotional breakdown, get caught all up inside of it. Thanks for pouring your heart at. J. Give me all those teeth, you were singing to me. A phenom, an angel, that voice is God-sent. We have such a soulful group, anybody can win, don't know what is going to happen.

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0467.html...know when to run. Too little, too late. Elise was the best singer of the night -- arguably the only singer of the night -- but the nature of the show and voter base means she's probably still B3 this week and gone before the leaves sprout. And as far as this season is concerned, I'm going to beat her out the door. Let me know which WGWG wins. Eventually. And with that, Nigel gets to hear another *click*.

I enjoyed nearly the whole show. There are so many who could win at this point and that is different than in years' past.Remember, Kristy Lee Cook and Sanjaya made it to 7th place their years and Scott Savol made the top 5. We have enough talent that Heyjun and Deandre should not make it that far (although Heyjun could make 7th like Sanjaya did). Anyone else out there enjoy the show? This thread is for fans as well as detractors. ;)
