My thoughts;

Katherine, ok, not as bad as the judges said, but not that good either.

Elliot, Great performance last night, but I'm not sure it's enough to save him.

Taylor, ok, not one of his better performances, but he's still my favotite.

Paris, Great performance, but I think her voice overpowers everything she sings.

Chris, nice voice, but I wasn't impressed with his performance last night. I think he's been better.

Kellie. God, this girl is afwul!! These last two weeks have been painful to watch. I can't believe she's still here. If she doesn't leave tonight it will be totally unfair. The other singers left are so much better than Kellie and it would be a shame to keep her in at their expense.

Kellie has been god awful. If she doesn't get the boot then something is terribly wrong with this show. All the judges were unaninamous with her and she should be OUT! Enough with the fakeness PLEASE!

Paris was OK. I expected MUCH more from Taylor, the song fits him perfectly but he messed up badly! Elliot was great but the song sucked.

Katherine BUTCHERED Whitney Houston's song. Vonzell Solomon did it right last year. Katherine tried to put her own twang on it and it SUCKED. Glad the judges let her know.

Chris was the best. Point blank baby. He has to win!

Katherine was excellent last night, I'm so glad Simon and Randy apologized! I just hope she doesn't go home. Now that Chris is finally singing instead of screaming those Heavy Metal songs, I'm starting to like him. He was great this week. Paris I know has a decent voice, but I think she oversings everything and is very annoying. I don't like her at all. Unpopular I think. Kellie is just painfully bad, but I could see her being a big success based on her looks and the fact that she CAN sing well enough to put out a good pop album.

BTW, can someone tell my why Andrea keeps his eyes closed? Is he blind?

WOW!

I wanted this so bad and now it happened. Weird feeling!

I feel bad for her. But I would have been pissed if she won this thing or even made it to the top 3. So yeah! But she definitely has a future. Definitely.

I Was almost feeling bad for Paris too. Sheesh.

And yeah to Chris and Katherine making the top! Is this the first time that the show has commented on how was in the top rather than just the bottom?

I think Taylor, Chris and Katherine are the top 3. I like Katherine but don't think she should win. IMO, ideally it should be Taylor, Chris and Elliott in the top 3. That would gauruntee a male win and Eliott is really good and I am really glad he has made it this far.

THANK GOD!!!

This was truly a night of payoffs with Simon and Randy apologizing. Sire Kat didn't sing anywhere close to Whitney but there is only one Whitney and Kat was not bad last night. Its rare to see them apologize but I am glad they did and rightfully so.

I was happy they told us who had the highest number and was middle and so on. I know it makes things uncomfortable for the singers but it tells you who has the best shot at this point.

I also liked Ryan and Co. acknowledging the alleged feud between Paula and him with the whole "dysfunctional family" comment. I do think Ryan's ego is getting too big but I don't think any of the judges or Ryan hate each other.

America got it right. Kellie was given so many reprieves and, while I did like her and still do at times, it was her time to go. I do feel bad for her though. She was annoying but I think she just tried to hard to get attention and get people to like her. Did anyone notice they slowed down the "Had a bad day" song this week?

I am glad they saved Paris. I do think Elliot and her are the most vulnerable though but Taylor is losing votes it seems. It should be Katherine/Chris in the finale. I said it from day one that one of them will win it (instincts tell me Kat but would AI let another girl win it?). Kat is definitely the better singer between her and Chris but that is who the finale should be and most likely will be. They are the most marketable too, other the Paris.

I guess next week there is no guest and the singers sing twice. I think that is what happens once you get down to five. We are really getting to the end here. Great to see Lisa in the audience and happy that she is on OC tomarrow. Andrea Bocelli was excellent-I love the guy but that Foster dude is tough and very hard to please.

Oh and Fox cutting her off was kinda mean but I think Kellie did not want to butcher the song again. She seemed uncomfortable with it and sucked so she probably said she didn't want to sing at the end, which is probably why they let her talk to the end (Ryan did tell her she had 40 seconds). She did handle it well and was very sincere for once.

Simon and Randy had it right the first time. The song was too big and too good for Katherine. Now, Trenyce from the second season, she did the song some justice! (She sang that...right? :lol:)

Anyhoo, bye, Kellie! Won't miss ya!

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • Andrew sure has hard nips.
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
