PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

I was beginning to think they were going to have to carry her off the stage. She was frozen. In complete shock. Got to give her props, though, I was surprised she was able to sing after being voted off. I think that practice is humilating.

This is live, right? Why didn't they cut to a commercial (lord knows Seacrest is good at doing that) and give her a minute to compose herself? Cruel, just cruel. Worse that Simon's most cutting remark.

I Think she was in total shock. In my opion she was better than the other girl in the bottom two.The other girl sang a Avril Lavinge song and was flat all the way through.I really thought the one that left would stay and the other girl would leave. Of course , neither was my favorite. My favorite stayed.

Couldn't agree more Kim. I voted for Judd (because I'm a sucker for that kind of stuff on this show), and he had one of the most interesting performances. When you have guys like Joseph, Travis (both good, both boring as hell), and a number of those girls still here, to see a fun performer like Judd going is pretty sad. I could have dealt with him until the Final 12 got picked.

19. "Fourth elimination - Male" |
WTF? Why did they drag those guys out on stage only to tell them all they were safe? They did that both times with the guys -- had them stand up and went through them one by one.The only thing I can imagine is that the voting for Monday night (men's competition) was so low that they are trying to individually re-introduce the men to the audience? Is that way off track? 'Cos they didn't have all the women stand up. I just don't get it. (plus I got an 11-pound cat who has decided this is the perfect time to lay on my mouse.)

I must admit I didn't vote either night. I would be interested to hear from peeps who called in on Ladies Night. If it was that easy for you to vote, maybe not many votes were cast for the men. (Or people forgot AI was on Monday night - they haven't done that before.) Would support my theory that they pulled the guys out one at a time to re-introduce them to the audience.

Fox sucks for making Wednesday so long and so mean. Stop trying to "trick" the already tortured souls into wondering if they made it or not. Just give us a 1/2 hour with the results. I don't need to see them sing either. That's just insult to injury.

Who was "kicked" last night wasn't too off what I thought..although I DID think Melinda would have lasted a little longer....but i FELT for ALL of them in the crude way they were treated...I mean OMG crush your world then tell you to sing? Sarah in particular looked like she would rather have just said "no thanks" but I give her credit...she did do a lackluster attempt at it..and got through it anyway. My picks after Tuesday night was Carrie for the girls..and Bo for the guys...and I think right now...Carrie is the odds on fave in my book to follow Fantasia to the promised land as they say...LOL

I admired her for saying it - She was screwed by the focus on some/ don't show others way they handled the auditions. Jared and Judd both fell victim to it as well. If Anthony hadn't had all the favorable publicity I'm thinking he might have been out - his Monday performance was one of the weakest if not the weakest.

41. "RE: William Hung" |
The only thing I hate about the elimination process is the fact tha Seacrest has to drag it out forever and a day. I also don't like the way he teases the contestants with "you are..................NOT in the bottom voting!" Aaarrrggghhh!This process is not new to AI, so if the contestants are stunned their name is called, then they have not been watching the last three seasons of American Idol. They have to know that some people will have glory on this show and others will possibly be humiliated on the way out of the door. The first girl to be eliminated seemed to have an entitlement attitude when she finally realized it was true that she had been voted off. She started instantly making excuses instead of just taking her loss gracefully. Singing after being told to scram, is not new. But if you have the attitude that you "DESERVE" to win, you will be so stunned that you can't sing. She deserved to be voted off because she sang the Celine Dion song out of key from the first note to the last. The second girl also seemed to have the stunned-yet-I'm-entitled-to-win-attitude. She sang her song as if she were angry at the audience. And let's say she was angry, don't take it out on us who tuned in to be entertained. She may have screwed up her own chances with her bad attitude because you never know who's watching American Idol. America made William Huang a successful recording artist (not a good one, just succesful) simply because he had a great attitude. I hope the other young ladies are taking notes and pick better songs next week.
