Melinda is 29. She appears older, but looking at her face closely, it's easy (at least for me) to see that she is not beyond 30 yet. I think that Taylor Hicks looked much older than her (even to me LOL). 29 is the age limit this year, but I read that it may be elevated for next season.

It's really hard to believe that Jordin is only 17. She is a natural wonder in my opinion. Her voice is fantastic and her control of it is wonderful. She does come across very young in her delivery though, the way she dresses and hops and skips durinig the music. I hope she has some coaching to help her develop a smoother presentation.

I think LaKisha may be the surprise early exit, but if not, the final four are lining up for me as Melinda, Jordin, Blake and LaKisha. Also, I think Sanjaya now moves into fifth place unless LaKisha goes and that could move him into fourth.

I love Blake, but it's hard to say his vocals are over Melinda, but presentation wise and delivery wise, he could be second to Melinda since I do not see Jordin taking the first place this year.

Subject to change as the shows progress of course LOL.

Personally, I think he is as cute as they come, but I doubt he will get any higher than fourth if that high. Fourth is a decent place to end, even fifth is.

I just read in my newest TV Guide that Haley is getting married in January in San Antonio to her fiance. Simon, Melinda, Gina and Jordin will be there. Sounds huge with a 350 guest list. More publicity coming most likely.

I was just reading an interesting article from theonlinewire.com about betting odds on eliminations of the idols. They missed last week with Haley's leaving. LaKisha was the one most favored to go (my note as was Dial Idol and AOL), so Haley was a shocker to them. Phil is expected to go however, Chris, LaKisha and sob Jordin are also on the expected to go list. I'll check back on Wednesday morning to see how the odds have changed. I'd really hate for Jordin to go. She is in my top three.

    • Right. Literally for decades, soaps mesmerized their audiences with tales of romance, family conflict, class struggles, and recognizable interpersonal-relationship sagas. We didn't need relentless, heavy violence. We didn't need clones, mad scientists, extra-terrestrials and demon possessions. We didn't need gaggles of plastic himbos and bimbos pushing beloved vets off-screen. We only needed to see people whom we cared about, and the intelligent, moving progression of their lives. Flashy sets, gaudy gimmicks, and high-falutin' hairdos be damned. The characters and the words were important.
    • Absolutely! Brad should've simply moved on from Lunacy. There's no point of freeing her, if you're not going to at least make an attempt at redemption or incorporating her into the fold. It happened with Quinn, who committed quite a few felonies before become the Forrester Matriarch.  Heck, keep Lunacy in prison and have Poppy/Finn discover that she gave birth to twins - 'Sunny' could've come on with a clean slate and still had Sheila/Finn and all the other drama. It certainly couldn't have been worse than what we've witnessed with the destruction of $B.    
    • I would enjoy it if Swan popped up on BTG as an old one time friend/mentor of Anita’s for a cameo. This is just

    • I had totally forgotten that Courtney story. I see Burton was already phoning it in by that point.
    • omg I completely missed that, but now when I see it typed here in your post, it's obvious icky cringe. So now I just checked and Tomas said that -- on May 27 that he likes the author Carl Ivati.  He said it with sort of an accent, so I didn't catch the stupid joke or think about the spelling.   I remember when that aired, that I actually said to myself at the time, "I wonder if that's a Latin American author, and I will have to google him later." And now I see your post, and I see. Well that's cringe, and I feel stupid to have fallen for it.

    • There's a lot you don't need if you have the writing.  You don't even need large casts!  You could make do with a cast of 12-18 actors if the writing is there.
    • Thank you. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with sleeping around if your spouse actually knows about it. She’s just a cheating slut.
    • OMG...Robert Mandan! And Donna Mills is a child. I keep hoping for more of early Ross/Vanessa.
    • I get your point, but I also know that if the roles were reversed -- if a man were screwing around on a woman this way -- everyone would be all "All with his head!" When I say Vanessa needs therapy, I'm actually being kind, because I could begin and end with the fact that she's a cheating slut.
