DialIdol isn't exactly accurate, at least in the early stages, although it does give a good impression on who is popular and who isn't.

I still hope Sanjaya goes despite being so damn high. I think Phil has more potential over Brandon and Jared so him going would really suck.

Sigh.

What are the voters smoking?

If Sundance survives it will be because of where he is from and his fan base. I think Phil is in danger as well as Brandon and Jared. As much as I love Sundance, I think he should go and also Brandon, because he definitely doesn't have range so background singer is where he belongs....my opinion. He has a fan base, however so Jared maybe go instead.

I just hope the girls are better. Last night is being tauted as the worst ever American Idol talent night.

I think Blake & Chris were far above the rest, and voted for them 20 times each. My 3rd fave was Brandon and I voted for him like 12 times. Phil Stacy was the worst tonight. His singing "I Need You" by LeAnn Rimes was absolutley one of the worst performances this season and Simon was right on by saying he looked "psycho" at the begining with his bugged-out eyes, lmao. I hope two of these go --- Sanjaya ( who actually was some better, his "Paula" hair was an improvement, but he should get it cut, since he does look girly and I agree with always AMC about the gay thing.), Phil or Sundance. I was definite Sanjaya and Sundance, but after Phil's horrible performance, I'd pick him over Sundance, with Sundance very likely the 1st of the Top 12 to go.

Okay....forget Lakisha....MELINDA IS WHERE IT'S AT. I frickin' LOVED her tonight. She was absolutely flawless. Holy cow she even got me on my feet. And we share one thing in common, with her 'something about me.' I always have to do the same thing on both ends to equal out. So that threw me by surprise :lol:

BEST

Melinda

Lakisha

Jordin

GOOD

Jordin

Sabrina

Gina

WORST

Antonella -HOW DARE YOU DESTROY MY SONG.

Wow the girls are so much better than the guys.

Melinda, Lakisha - those two will go far. I really liked Gina tonight too. I really hope she stays bc she really proved herself tonight.

Antonella is already getting $250,000 offers once she's off AI to pose in magazines...she just needs to get off AI bc she can't sing. So I hope her and Haley leave tomorrow.

I am a lot like Melinda too - I'm a little OCD like her where everything has to be equal. Weird.

I'm still loving Melinda's performance. She is a TRUE professional. Her stage presence, vocals, control, and energy is off the charts. I love her. Melinda is officially my favorite this year. I hope someone YouTube's that.

Did they ever blow the boys out again. What a shame that two of them have to go. Well, actually, there are two who should go LOL. Again, Melinda just was fabulous and so endearing. I just love her. Lakisha was wonderful, too and I love her. Stephanie is gorgeous and for her youth (19) she will be up there with them at their ages or before. Those are definitely the top three in my book. The bottom are Haley, Gina and Antonella. I think Antonella will be spared due to the sympathy vote and fanbase. Gina doesn't have a big fanbase and I believe her performance tonight will turn a great deal of voters away, especially in the south and midwest, small towns.

Early Dial Idol has Haley, Antonella and Sabrina the bottom three. That will most certainly change over the next few hours.

My favorite guys were Blake, Chris R, and Chris S. I do like Phil and Brandon too and want them all the make the top 12. I would throw in Sundance I guess and he can go home fast. Sanjaya has got to go but it's not looking good for that.

My favorite girls were Melinda (who is my pick to win IMO), Lakisha, Gina, Stephanie, and Sabrina. I like Jordin too so I hope those are the 6 girls. I used to like Haley but I don't like her attitude and hse was off tonight. Antonella was a bit better tonight but still needs to go.

If Stephanie and/or Sabrina goes tomarrow, that will be a crime.

    • I can't watch until later (Canada issues). What is Philip's motivation for stealing the drug? Only plot I cared about today and you did not mention it 
    • Doug III’s first day of work. Hope he does a good job… or that Tate tries to sabotage him somehow

      His scenes with Holly were nice though. They’re sweet together and I understand why some people think that they have more chemistry than Tate/Holly do. And I liked that Doug III opened up to her about his past. Maybe that could lead to something good happening in the future.  I also enjoyed Roman and Kate, and how they’re both being tied into EJ’s shooting. The mystery of it all is really compelling. I don’t think Roman is the shooter though either.  I didn’t have much sympathy for Kristen though. She has no one to blame for Rachel’s problems than herself. But at the same time, I’m really surprised that Days actually remembered the Alex/Kristen fling. I thought Ron had erased that from existence. I’m not shipping them at all, but I’m definitely shipping a permanent end to Brady/Kristen but after today, I’m not so sure about that either.  And, Johnny and Chanel were still great together

    • Some country club revelation thoughts from a casual watcher no one asked for. The Great: Daphnee Duplaix gave the best performance we've seen yet. Nicole's dialogue was also well thought out and felt character specific. TJ Maxx Ted was also pretty good. Trisha Mann-Grant steals every scene she's in. Often without even trying. Carrying multiple episodes worth of exposition heavy soap dialogue with starts and stops and recapping and drama and humor is no small feat and she nailed. Vernon telling Lesliana to STFU.  The Bad: So much of the dialogue for the rest of the cast was overly written. Martin said "You are a vile human being with a hole in your heart!". Marty, what are we doing? It's SO dramatic and sounds so silly coming from this grown man. Do Bill and Hayley do anything but talk about the Duprees? And the nerve of her to get so excited to find out Ted is a cheater when she and her husband are too. There should be a hint of shame mixed in with your glee, ma'am. The Questionable: Coffee and a rendition of Amazing Grace after finding out Nicole was betrayed by her husband. The Duprees are an odd bunch. The stinger of one segment had Anita prepared to lambast Lesliana, when we came back someone else was talking. When Anita eventually said something to Wig, it was a lukewarm at best. And then of course she thought singing a song about something that should absolutely not be extended to her son-in-law. The entire family allowing this deranged woman to speech at them in their own was...nuts. I know she said something about what would the neighbors say but my GOD. Is she just going to be allowed to trespass whenever she feels like it now? The focus on Leslie and her wig usage as an oddity is...odd. I think Chelsea said something like "and she wears wigs!" (while wearing a buss down middle part). Okay? It's just not that odd for a black woman to change up her hair. It's the different names that's the problem. I know it's meant to be humorous, in a throwback soap kind of way, but it fell flat for me.  I'm sorry I find the whole family to be WEIRD. It's like they want us to see them as ruthless yet benevolent, open yet furtive, snobbish yet tooth achingly sweet all at the same time. I cannot get a lock on the family dynamics. Everyone is just there.  I'm gonna cry if this show doesn't start giving us ages (or close to it!) for these characters. Because if Eva is 21-22 then Martin was being given crayons, a soda pop and blinders when he was 15-17 years old. Martin had to have been under 8 for me to buy this story, which would make Eva and Kat late 20s (Martin is at least 35 since he wants to run for president), which I don't think they're meant to be. It's honestly minor but it bothers me. I've mentioned this to @Vee but I think the optics on opening the show with both sisters discovering their husbands of over 30 years are cheaters should've been considered. I doubt there was any intention behind it, no one's rubbing their hands together as they scheme to say the married black men can't stay loyal but how does it look? Maybe it's just me. Honestly it's probably just me!
    • Thank you very much!!!! I really appreciate it!!! I also have read the GH coffee table book from the 90s!!!
    • For a homeless woman, June sure has nice teeth. I agree Ted didn't bring the power in the fallout scenes but to can him and leave Tomas, Martin and Derek onscreen? i'm not looking forward to Martin's secret being revealed and have him flail in the spotlight scenes. Yes, he's got a little better, but... When someone like Timon delivers with every line reading, you wonder how some other casting decisions were made. And I need sunglasses every time characters are at Uptown-is that green paint left over from GL's Cedars Hospital makeover? And for the cliffhanger, instead of the Door dash nonsense, simply have Leslie encounter Vanessa on her way out and push past her to enter. As there is no front door have Leslie barge into the living room, with Vanessa following.  Then Nicole can tell Vanessa- it's OK she can leave them alone.
