I'm just curious.. I've never seen an entire season of AI until now :P

Wild card shows usually took place before the top 12. Before this season, 8 contestants would perform each week and the top two would advance to the top 12. They would do this for like 3 weeks and then the final 4 would be on the Wild Card show. Famous wild cards would be Clay Aiken and Carmen from Season 2 and JPL and Leah from Season 3. Season one had a wild card but it wasn't like that. Basically, it was the 3 judges picks out of any 12 selected from the past shows and then an audience pick.
They did away with it this year though.
