Sanjaya has Vote for the Worst and SIRUS, Howard Stern behind him. I just wish that American Idol would boot those block votes like they claim they will and have the power to do so. Actually, I think he is cute as all get outs and his voice is not that bad, but he definitely needs a lot of help in how to project himself.

IA Jean, Hayley actually reminded me of Katherine McPhee too. IA with Simon, I pretty much always agree with Simon, but she finally made herself seem distinctive and like a "star". It was sad that she forgot her words but she obviously wasn't the only one! I thought Hayley was one of the best girls, (though that list is long) and I applaud her for coming out and making herself noticable.

I kinda liked Blake's version of that song, I don't see the arrogance, only because I think he is very talented and that kinda stands out with these guys since not a lot are. Chris R was good but I wouldn't call it his or the guy's best. Sanjaya sucks, it's like he is not putting half of an effort.

I LOOOVE Jordin. While I agree that the tops are Melinda and Lakisha, Jordin should be there too and maybe further down the line she can cause an upset.

Its still Blake and Melinda for me.

Chris butchered "Endless Love" ... What was with that U2/Coldplay-eqsue music?

I think the difference between Chris and Blake is that Chris made a love ballad into some Coldplay song, while Blake took an already upbeat/up-tempo song and basically did a dance remix, which works.

I actually thought Jordin sounded like Katharine. That kind of wierd vibrato, bordering on screaming voice?

Stephanie and Lakisha are good, but will never win Idol. Hayley is someone who you can easily forget. Brandon was a mess, Sanjaya was... Sanjaya :wacko: Chris Rich was okay, but his voice is one that can get really annoying if you listen it for more than two songs at a time.

I think I must be the only one who really liked Blake's song. I loved it actually.

I like Chris - BUT he seems so stiff and uncomfortable when he performs. I hope he gets over that, bc I like him.

Melinda, LaKisha, and Jordin were all great. Best of the night.

Sanjaya, Brandon, and Chris S. were the worst tonight - but I want to see either Brandon, Hayley, or Sanjaya to go.

I still really like Gina too.

Brandon was sexy, but lacked personality and energy, plus his performance yesterday was sub-par, so no big loss really. Ugh to Chris R., I hope he goes soon. I can't stand his Justin Timerblake wannabe style, and Kevin Federline looks.

Okay, I have GOT to stop checking out Dialidol :lol: I knew the results weren't 100%, but I still believed there was a chance Brandon was safe :huh:

Oh well. Brandon wasn't great, but he wasn't horrid either. He was very mediocre. No big loss. I have a feeling we are really stuck with Sanjaya at least until the Top 8.

Anyone know what the theme is next week? I hope it's a good one. I didn't really care for Diana Ross night. She is a true Legend but the Supremes were never my favorite Motown act.

    • That's on Kimmer. As someone posted above...she was offered roles in pilots but she would be part of an ensemble or supporting. She didn't want that so she came back to GL. I don't know what she thought would happen..someone offering her "Here's Kimmer!" or The "Zimmer Comedy Powerhouse Hour" variety show..but her housefrau fans did not have the same pull in HW as they did on the soaps. Forbes and Watros knew that you had to take small parts to get noticed ands start a career in primetime. I know she was in consideration for the wife in Evening Shade, but when you go up against Marilou Henner, the soap diva looses. I could see her frustrated in a role like that, where she has to be the understanding wife with a bit of sass, but she could have made it work, if it wasnt for her huge ego.  I think it would have been an issue haveing all the powerhouse comedy actors surrounding...(lets face it..Alice Ghostly woudl have wiped the floor with her...) but it would have been a good launching padd.
    • Oh good, so I don't have to wait too long haha. I'm glad she cares about seeing Bill graduate. I'm guessing I'm in for a bumpy ride between Bill and Matt, if he's going to be his caretaker? Who else could it be, maybe Josh?

    • Maeve makes a few sporadic appearances, but returns full-time the next spring/summer. She's back in time to see Bill and Michelle graduate, although she skulks around town and wasn't going to tell anyone she was alive. She comes back wearing this HUGE hat---which was a throwback to the old Vanesaa. lol.
    • Aww, yeah it's very heartbreaking and I mostly enjoyed the Nola/Vanessa scenes because they finally let their walls down and came together in a beautiful moment. So Nola was at the hospital already and bumped into Vanessa, who had MRI papers that fell out of her hand and Nola went down to pick them up and asked her what was going on. Later, Vanessa confided in her about her disease. Then, Nola told Zachary on the beach (he prodded her and already alluded to knowing something was going on with Van), and then Vanessa found out she told him and got a little upset. Now, however, Nola is strangely absent while everyone is mourning her death. I'm curious if Nola will actually tell people about her MRI results. I would assume so. Only Nola, Rick, Roger and Zachary know anything, although there is the MRI results letter from the mail that everyone has missed seeing at home. I'm sure it'll all come out at some point. But... I just saw the next episode and the opening already cut Vanessa out and added Dahlia and Zachary. I guess Maeve is gone for a long time

       That will break my heart seeing the town continue to mourn her and assume she's dead. I can't wait to see her return though, and I have to imagine feelings will be torn between loving that she's alive and being very angry she did all of this. While I hate what Vanessa is doing, I'm happy to hear it's not totally against her character. I think you're right, had Henry still been around, she wouldn't put him through this. I'm still surprised she is with Bill, though. I get her feelings on Matt, because she wants him to move on, but still very heartbreaking. I'm glad this was Maeve's choice to have a break vs. being fired.    Interesting, so I'm curious to see who they eventually pair Phillip with. They're flirting with a Phillip/Annie pairing, but I'm not sure if they'll go that route with the Jeva drama, her growing pill addiction, and Rick's past with her.  Ugh, yeah I'm so sad to see Bridget do a total 180 in the last couple weeks. She has always been a strong character from what I've seen, but now she's just bending over backwards to get Hart to love her and it reeks of desperation. Yeah, sure, this new Hart is eye candy, but I'm already tired of seeing Hart/Dinah have sex all over Springfield and the Cayman Islands haha.
    • Yes.  I remember them together during the early summer of 1986.  They didn't share scenes again for 30 years until 2017 because Carrie wasn't on the show when Anna returned during Sydney's kidnapping.
    • I can see Kim being that way. Well, Kyle didn't have to say yes. LOL. The suicide attempt feels plot-driven. I don't know if even Long could've made it work. She'd spent so much time trying to make Reva and Kyle into a couple, it feels odd to just have them give up. Not to mention how odd it is to have Maeve agree to marry him. Re Charita---surely they could've at least tried  finding clips with who was still there. Maybe they wouldn't have been "big" moments, but surely she'd interacted with Ross, Vanessa, and Henry. Vanessa had dated Ed, FCOL. But Mo and Rick were there---surely they could've bothered to find some clips of her with them (and they did interact a fair amount) and used them. And with Ed they could've found some shot of her talking to him and just not cut to whoever was playing Ed in the clip. That to me is what feels lazy---they had more than a year to figure it out, and they went with a bunch of photos. If you were sort of centering it on Rick anyway---then find clips with them and use 'em.
    • I definitely think it's time to write off Nina for good. I think her killing Drew might actually be a good idea. She could completely lose it after losing both Sasha and Willow and she ends up murdering Drew and eventually she gets caught and sent away to prison for a long time.
