The Judges Almost Saved Tonight’s Elimination

After a night packed full of show stopping performances by several contestants which included a standing ovation for Adam Lambert by Simon Cowell, there was little doubt that Scott MacIntyre and Lil Rounds would be in the bottom three for tonight’s elimination.  Scott and Lil gave performances that were highly criticized by all four judges [...]

Judges do not save Jasmine Murray and Jorge Nunez

Jasmine Murray and Jorge Nunez were the first casualties from this year’s American Idol finals. They were sent home after the producers altered the rules, giving the judges an opportunity to save only one contestant this year. Before Top Five week, the judges have one opportunity to unanimously “save” the person voted off resulting [...]

Top 13 Sing Jack-O

I still get nervous every time I hear the American Idol them song.  I have nothing but respect for any of these contestants.  [...]

The Final 36

We are only one episode away from the live performances. An interesting thing has been added this season. During the chair episodes, they are letting people they are undecided about have a sing-off to earn their spot in the semi-finals.  I like this because it is tough to get eliminated once you’ve made it through [...]
