Don't save him. Please just give up the act. I know they're just doing this to fill time, acting like they're actually considering the same. Verdict time... The save isn't used. SCOTT GOES HOME! Nice guy, bad singer. I'm not sad to see him go. |

That's phony crap. They had an extra 45 seconds of time to fill and pretending as if they were "torn" was a great way of filling it. |

This is great. The fodder is finally gone. Jorge is gone, Jasmine is gone, Alexis is gone, Scott is gone. At long last, the competition has gotten serious. |

I know I text in my votes. I ended up sending in a few more than other weeks because I wanted Kris to stay. It wasn't his best week, but I think he has shown promise. So I have to say what place did Kellie Pickler end up in during Season 5. Wasn't it 6th or 7th? Yet I bet her country career is better than either Taylor or Katherine. She was never that great during Season 5, but it is nice to see she figured out where she fits and is making a decent career. Time for Scott to go. He made the tour which was a major accomplishment, he wasn't going to win. Although I have to say with his performance tonight that this is almost what he should have done either with the microphone in the stand or without it (and not on a stool). I think he was a bit better tonight. But it was time for him to go. Good for him for not letting his impairment hold him back. |

How? I just said her look and personality reminds me of her LOL. I feel bad for Scott. What the judges did was horrible. It was all just a put on. You can tell. He just stands up there and the longer they kept him waiting and kept teasing him with the thought of the save, the harder it got to accept what happened and come to terms with it. I mean, I think he would've been ok with leaving had they just made a decision right away and said it instead of stringing it along. He began to have tears in his eyes by the time they finally got around to giving him a decision. You can tell he bought it because he started appealing to Simon, saying he will be better next week. The idea is for them to make a decision before the person is done performing. We know they start discussing the prospect of saving people as the bottom 3 begins to materialize. Not only that but we also know who they would consider saving based on who their faces are so there really is no need to not have a decision once the person is done performing. All that stupid, pointless debating and Simon finally taking control of the situation, much like he did when the same shit happened with Micheal, really should've taken place between the judges during the commercial or during the performance since we know they pay no attention anyway. Hell, Kara and Paula were busy dancing and screwing around more then they were discussing and judging yet again. That shit should not take place while the contestant is standing there waiting for their fate. I figured Paula may be sympathetic but the others I did not expect to be and I think they pretended like Kara was interested in keeping him just so they can say they tried to save him, kind of like the week when Micheal left when both girls acted like they wanted him saved. They just did it because Micheal was a nice guy and same goes for Scott, on top of his being blind. They just wanted to save face a bit. Oh well. He did better tonight and I agree with cubsgirl that it was nice seeing him just standing behind the microphone. He hadn't done that since the top 36, although he is clearly in his element behind the piano. It was sad at the end, especially after all the shit with the judges. You can tell they all loved him at the end as they all said goodbye to him. He was an inspiration and I'm glad Paula said what she said because it was true. He wasn't horrible. He just had little vocal range and wasn't as talented as the others. He came off better then he did early on in the competition. Glad the judges applauded him and that Paula said what she did, although she does that alot for contestants. I guess now they can do the group performances and everything else without worrying anymore, not that I think anyone cared. Sure, they all had to do things differently with him there but I'm sure they didn't mind. One more thing...I know I say this every week but how smug was Danny? That look on his face every week when he is saved is awful. Ugh. Can he go next, please? Edited by PhoenixRising05, Apr 8 2009, 09:35 PM.

Well, I think it's been serious since Alexis left LOL (and you know I feel she was more then fodder). It proved anyone can go so I think it's been serious but, your right, now I feel like everyone left can sing and sing well. Obviously, some are better and more liked then others, at this point anyway, but we are left with alot of talent and I don't see anyone that is there that is really someone only there for sympathy or because of VFTW. That is a good thing. |

Yeah Danny I use to like, but not much anymore. I like Adam alot and my mom doesn't like him at all but she loves Danny. And I sure love my Kris. And I love Allison. Those would be my dream for the top 3. But I feel like it well be Adam, Lil, and Danny. I just hope am wrong. |

Good point about Kellie. Taylor just wasn't commercial enough and Katherine was too generic. She was nothing special and did nothing to distinguish herself. The biggest issue was they waited so long to get her album out and did nothing to promote her. She was just forgotten and that does not help. Elliot was the only other commercial artist that season besides Daughtry. They both should've been there at the end. Kellie is commercial too and she is in a genre that she can succeed in. That is critical. The genre suits her. |

Nah, there's only one person who's "like" Dolly and that's Dolly, LoL. |

Oh, come on LOL. Yes, Dolly is better and she is clearly superior to Kellie. However, there are many similarities. Infectious personality, similar tone of voice, big breasts...just a delightfully funny girl and a great entertainer. Again, not saying Kellie is anywhere close to Dolly in stature or talent but I feel there is some pretty obvious similarities. One more thing, though. Usually, we've had Idol Gives Back around this time the past two years and one year they did a double elimination since they didn't want to send anyone home due to the event and one year they did send someone home. Anyway, I was just thinking today that it would've been ironic to use the save either this week or next week since it would be like having Idol Gives Back and not sending anyone home because of it LOL. I know, I think too much but just something on my mind because I was sure they were going to use it tonight with Kris down in last in DialIdol and now I'm sure they will at least use it just for the heck of it sometime in the next few weeks since it will be out of play soon. |

Can't stand it either. If he ends up in the top 2, I plan on putting in a TON of votes the the OTHER PERSON. I will even do that if it is Adam. Because at least with Adam the guy maybe way out there but I feel like he can do a lot more. I also have to give him props for toning things down. I have been enjoying a bit more than I did the first couple of weeks. |

Same here. If that happens, then I think we may see another situation like what happened in the finale last year. I think the judges favor Adam. He is David Cook this year and I think they may try a little reverse psychology again liker Simon did to make sure they get him for the win since he is far more commercial then Danny is. |

I am glad Scott is gone, but I did feel bad for him. I would be fine with Anoop or Lil going though too. Kellie did do something to her face. I think she got botox or something, but why?? I do like her though. It was nice to see a musical guest singing live. |

Of course! That didn't even need to be said :laugh: . Just like I was glad when Megan left and will be equally glad when Anoop leaves LOL. Ok. Just kidding LOL. I like Anoop when he's not acting like an indulgent, egotistical asshole. I was just watching it back and did anyone notice how Lil nodded when Simon talked about how they were considering saving at least one person? Her ego is just as out of control as Danny's. Ugh. I want them both gone. I'm just glad Paula gave Scott a nice sendoff. That was a nice, very emotional way to close out the show too. |
