This is the format they have used for the Top 24 for the last few seasons, but they used to have three groups of eight (male and female) perform and the top three vote getters from each group moved on to the Top 12. Then they would have a wild card round, and the judges each picked their favorite to round out the Top 12.

So, what do y'all think of the singing?
I really liked the mullet boy last night, he has a really unusual sounding voice, and if he can just get over his jitters, he could be good!
Also think that the other young country singing boy should stick to country, didn't like his song at all!
Liked the muscley black guy! He has serious soul and feeling in his singing!!
Casey, Kara's crush should be a guitar player singing backup in a band. His voice is just not very strong and it's kind of goatish (warbley)
Not really crazy about the other singers last night, but have high hopes for tattoo neck guy, he just needs to sing the right song.
Going home? the dancing black guy? the Korean cute guy from Northwestern?
Will I ever know these people's names? Will I care?

Agree - John Park (Korean/american) and Todrick Hall (dancing dude) are my bets to go home. Casey (guitar God) could be a surprise go homer.
Although the judges continually tell the contestants to change things up and when they do (as Todrick did) they get conflicting responses.
Again, time to fire the judges or at least Ellen and Kara and bring whacky Paula back.

Ellen has no comments of any merit but at least she's sometimes funny. I'll take that over Kara/Paula (who also have no merit, but fail miserably at being funny) any day.
Also, go Katelyn Epperly. PPL.

Interestingly, whenever Ellen follows Randy with her comments, she tends to say something that closely resembles the comments he has already made. But when she's on the end of the panel, and she is the first to speak, I feel like she actually contributes something (although, again.. it's not much).
To be honest, half of the time I just fast-forward through the other judges and just listen to Simon. He's the only one who is actually honest and who has anything constructive to say.

I do the same thing.

I was sorry to see the 16 year old boy get into the top 12 last night. I really get a bad - stagemomcrazy - feeling about him.
Plus, I think Lilly should have stayed instead of the young teen girl.
Looking forward to rooting on the long haired boy (Tim?) and Lee (the former rebellious teenager guy turned good).

Actually a very good night for most everyone last night. Rolling Stones songs suited most all of them very well. Shibohan and Crystal were the best of the girls and (I hate to say it) Aaron was the best of the guys.
Ellen was pretty funny last night and is getting better as a personality (not judge).
My pick for the bottom three are: Andrew, Paige and Tim. I believe Andrew will go home but this is just a w.a.g.

I agree, Ghostwriter.
I think Ellen is finding a nice rhythm and interjecting just the right amount of humor. I also felt like she was more independent (with regard to her opinions) last night than any other night.
Does anyone else notice how Kara totally ignores Ellen? Last night, she managed to turn and glance at her a few times, but she never "connects", imo. Her body language speaks volumes.

I think Kara is a waste as a judge. She has a huge ego and does not come across as a music expert. I don't believe she had anything constructive to say last night.
Unfortunately, Simon leaves after this season and I do not believe there will be any reason to watch Randy, Kara, Ellen and whomever next season. This season is it for me.

Bumping this since last night's show was fairly dramatic.
I am glad they saved Big Mike. I like him and feel like he did not deserve (talentwise) to leave. Now, if we could just get that little skinny Aaron kicked off...

Oh thank goodness. I dont know why my facebook s blowing up with "Idol was rigged" because there are lots of runner ups who actually do very well, if not better than the winner...
I bet it was the nappy hair...
