Okay. So "Leif Garrett's" hair... was styled with a curling iron.

????

Me either. Didn't get him at all.

I did enjoy, though, how quickly Ryan pulled that first trigger to send someone home -- that was different and I didn't see that coming. :p

The group performance sounded terrible, though, I thought -- and what's with all the costuming, etc.? I wonder if they'll do that every week? I hope not. I also hope the producers have learned to NEVER kick off the season with 60s night again. That was horrible.

Hehe, I commented on the same thing to my husband. I didn't get that, at all.

I wasn't really surprised with any of them, although I thought the 4th one wasn't as bad as some of the others.

I think America got it right with Amy and Garrett, but I was surprised by the other two. I think there were other people who were a lot worse.

I had a work event so I missed it. Who got voted off?

These 4 are gone:

Another awful night of Idol :(

I only liked David Hernandez and David Archuleta. Everyone else was either beyond boring or just plain terrible.
Also, I have to add that I noticed that David H. has a bit of a Cat Deeley crooked nose and now it's all I see when I look at him.

I don't know what the hell that first half was.... boring and terrible

Comeback of the Night- Chikeze... he performed that song and came across a bit more likable(Donny Hathaway lover here).. may even vote

Lil David... he can sing.. but like Jordin last year I find myself bored with the cute act

David H..... he was pretty good....


Thats all worth mentioning

I liked those three too and I also liked the guy with the guitar -- David Cook? is that his name? But OH MY GOD does his hair drive me insane.

Do you mean Jason Castro as the kid with the obnoxious hair? He played a guitar last night, and as far as I am concerned has the most riduculous hair on the show (now that Curing Iron Leif has met his exit).

This is David Cook, who I can't remember if he played with a guitar or not, but I felt bad for him when Simon was attacking him for being boring since he is a "Word Nerd."

I still can't keep them all straight myself... except for Lil David who gave me goosebumps when he sang "Imagine." I normally am anti the high school set, but this kid does seem to genuinely have something. And Sober Paula had the line of the night that she wanted to squish him up and hang him from her rear view mirror.

^^^I meant David as the one I liked but can't stand his hair. I don't like Jason's voice OR hair.

And did anyone else catch how miserable the long blond-hair rocker-wannabe guy looked while everyone was fawning over how David C. is the "real deal" after his performance? At one point, you could see him up in the balcony and he just looked so unhappy. He does protest way too much that he really, really is a tough rocker dude while he definitely has more of a pop voice. David C. has more of a rock voice, though he doesn't pull off the "persona" as well as Chris Daughtry did. (and the crossword thing, while it gives him points in my book, doesn't necessarily toughen up his "rock" image)

I just heard a recap on Fox News and MY EARS HURT. The one guy, David Cook, cracks me up. He is terrible and doesn't realize it. He just keeps smiling as he hits everything flat.

The girls weren't too bad tonight. I didn't really care for Alaina, Alexandrea, Joanna, or Kady, though.

Turns out one of our beloved idol contentants previously worked as a stripper...
