It's that time again, American Idol 2010 - Page 3

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...

Worst.Season.Ever.

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...

Or the sunshine-yellow teeth.

Lee Dewyze the new Kris Allen.

Wrong one won but who cares.

BTW - Crystal's looks were the reason she didn't win. Not wholesome enough. She was probably the most talented they have had since Daughtry.

FInally got around to watching this week's shows (Olympics takes priority this week!). I like how they seem to be showing more and more of Hollywood Week each season. I was also thrilled that once it got down to the last 2 of each gender they didn't make them sit together. Totally awkward for the one that gets put through.

Totally agree. From the beginning I was just praying that he and his mamma would be sent packing. I didn't care how well he sang- the two of them were annoying as hell. On the flip side, "Straight Up Guy" seems so wonderfully kind, humble and genuine.

Me too.

I actually teared up a little for her. Just too many good (and unique) female singers this year. The only one that I am a little

about was Siobhan (sp?). I don't remember being wowed by her vocals, but maybe I am forgetting something?

Most of the guys I didn't really remember, except for the 70s dude who broke his wrists falling out of trees, the kid adopoted by his aunt (though I wasn't really feeling it with him), John Park, new daddy, and maybe one other.

Happens every year. I swear that I am not going to get sucked in, and then I do.

It's the incessant amount of backstory.

Oh, and the glasses too.
