The girls didn't bring it tonight. Kinda boring and bland overall.

Katharine - Vocally, she's strong. Kinda bland. She's safe though.

Paris - Vocally, again, very, very good. Boring performance. She's safe.

Kinnik - Eh. She was better last week. I think she's vulnerable to being booted.

Ayla - Did well vocally, but again, just didn't BRING IT.

Heather - ONCE AGAIN, vocally it was good, but she just really LACKED emotion. She's probably gone.

Melissa - I like her, but again, she's overshadowed.

Brenna - Bad, but I honestly think she will be safe again.

Kellie - Did VERY good. Much better than last week. She's SO adorable.

Mandisa - She did very good again. She CAN own it but needs to stop yelling. It was a little pitchy but still very good.

Lisa - She did so good. I really enjoyed her but she played it a bit safe.

GOING HOME?

Kinnik and Heather. (although either Brenna and/or Melissa going wouldn't surprise me either)

The girls weren't bringing it at all tonight. I agreed with the judges on every single performance.

Kellie got a great review, which I'm pretty glad about. PICK PICKELER!

Mandisa's my girl! She continues to rock the stage that is way big enough for her ;)

I was disappointed in Paris's performance. I think she could have chose a better more hip song that she would blow the top off with.

I liked Lisa's performance. I thought she did great.

I'm glad that the judges gave Ayla her props. She is an amazing singer.

Who deserves to go home?

Heather - she should have went home last week instead of Becky. Heather is not a good vocalist at all and I cannot believe that she ever made it into the final 24. She better go this week.

Kinnik - another girl that should have went home instead of Becky.

Katherine-Bad song choice. Showed me that she thought she could sing anything and get away with it. She sang it ok but it was very dull. She is probably safe though but you never know.

Kinnik-Good effort but it just didn't work for me. She really did come off as a fraud country performer. It just wasn't her element. She is very vulnerable Thursday.

Lisa-Sang it really well but it was bland and sleep inducing. She will be safe though.

Melissa-Surprised me and I thought she was great. She reminds me alot of Jessica Sierra from last year. She is performing well but for some reason the audience never attaches to her. It would not surprise me if she goes, much like Patrick last week, even though it would be wrong given her performance.

Paris-Cute as button and sang really well but again it was like ballad night. I just hate when most of the singers pick the same types of songs because it drowns out good performances of songs like this. She shouldn't be going anywhere though.

Heather-Some of it was good but she botched up the end to one of my favorite songs ever. There was no emotion and she came off as a little conceited during the judges comments with er facial expressions and such. I think she will be gone definitely.

Brenna-Horrible. She totally trashed the song and her attitude is annoying. I hate the judges for telling her to go back to that last week but then again she was bad last week too. Its her time to go and if she somehow sticks around its for entertainment purposes only.

Ayla-Excellent. She sang that song beautilfully and I love this girl's work ethic and attitude. She should be a lock for the top 12 and she has become one of my faves. Best performance of the night and one of the two that picked the right song.

Kellie-Same as Ayla only not as good. I just love this girl's personality. You can't help but love her. She is so easily amazed and just seems like a genuinely nice person. Its easy to root for her and tonight she picked a good song in which her voice sounded alot like the original singer of the song. She was just so great and she seems like the girl you would have next door.

Mandisa-All over the place but I still like her. Overall it wasn't bad but the song was not right for her and sometimes she was shouting. She isn't going anywhere though.

I agreed with the judges tonight-other then Ayla and Kellie no one was impressive or interesting. It was all so bland with the exceptions of the two I mentioned. The guys didn't impress me last Wednesday while the girls did last Tuesday so maybe they will switch this week since the girls were overall boring tonight, at least I hope so.

I have to admit i didn't really like kelly at the beginning but she is growing on me. She might not be the best in my opinion but she deserves to be in the final 6 girls.

Heather was bad tonight and should go home. I also think Brenna should go, but I think she will ge the votes to stay so Kinnik will probably go.

Ayla and Mandisa were my top two tonight.

STEP IT UP, GIRLS! ENOUGH OF THIS SLOW CRAP!!!! ENOUGH OF THE BALLADS!!!

Paris was good too. I think she will go the furthest of the girls. Paris or Lisa.

Heather was the most improved over last week.

Kelly's "I'm a country bumpkin I never heard of Calimari, people who dress their dogs, and spinach salad" act is old. You're from the south. You're not from the 1700's. Get over it. The act is OLD.

I liked Paris and Ayla performances the best tonite. Lisa was close behind. I'd give Mandisa forth place.

Brenna by far was the worse and should have been gone last week (but better she leaves this week, than next week). Kinnik messed up with the song choice. Honestly if Brenna sang good, I'd be all for her staying even with the attitude, but she doesn't sing good.

LMAO at the "country bumpkin" part. I saw this and I thought it was funny in a sorta "dumb blonde" kinda way. Like something Jessica Simpson would say. I still thought it was cute and that she was also genuine, like KryptonMan101 said. It's the silly stuff like this that wins me over in women, even if it was like totally OLD.

Last Week. Best girls were IMHO Mandissa, Paris Bennett, Lisa Tucker, Kinnik Sky & Katharine McPhee. I voted for Mandissa (Lover her version of Heart's "Never") and Sky (don't understand what Simon is smoking), loved her singing "Get Here". The worst girls IMHO were Stevie Scott & Brenna Gethers (I hate Brenna, she is such a damned !@#$%^&*], why was she even put in the top 24, there were at least 3 others who were much better than her). Sorry to see Becky O'Donohue go, liked her, Brenna should've been axed instead.

As for as the guys last week, my top 3 were Ace Young, Elliott Yamin & Chris Daughtry ( I voted for all 3, voted mostly for Chris, then Elliott). Also liked Taylor Hicks, David Radford & sorta Kevin Covais (who reminds me of a weird mix of Eminem & Frankie Muniz, lmao).

Glad that Bobby Bennett was voted off (why was he even put in the top 12 guys?) Not surprised Patrick was axed too, he picked the totally wrong song. But Sway Penala should've been voted off instead, he was HORRIBLE.

Tonight my girl Mandessa did it again with a wonderful version of Faith Hill's "Fly", agree with Simon that her outfit and hair was wrong (making her appear a lot older), and also loved Paris Bennett. Voted for both.

Also liked Lisa Tucker again, and was shocked by Melissa McGhee, who I could barely tolerate last week, her version of Reba's song was surprisingly good. Ayla Brown was also good (surprised me again).

Katharine McPhee shocked me, she wasn't very good tonight. Also Kinnik Sky, whom I loved last week, screwed up and probably has cut her chance of going further.

Brenna was deservedly told by Simon that her version of Donna Summer's "Last Dance" should've been called "Last Chance'. That !@#$%^&*] sucked and hopefully will be gone Thursday. My picks to go home-------Brenna Gethers and either Heather Cox or the highly over-rated Kellie Pickler. I want Kinnik Sky to get 1 more week to show her talent.

    • They didn't need to have some slutty gay dude as their representation. Just a 'normal' guy getting involved with another guy or two (or three). Just like the straight characters. Thinking about it, they missed the boat by not having a few other single charcters at the beginning. Maybe Naomi or Ashley could be shown meeting Derek/Jacob and  we could follow their romance. Too many characters were coupled up at the start. As a tattoo hater I was surprised to see Tomas so inked. Don't find it attractive or sexy. I'm surprised an actor would do that as it's definitely a statement and may not be appropriate for some roles. Suppose they can cover if necessary. I didn't buy Kat being all girly and then paying off Darius to get into Eva's room. Way too cliche. She should have just come along when the housekeeping was leaving and breezed in saying it was her room. And her smug looks in the hotel room and 'Now I've got you!!' talks to herself at Orphey Gene's...no.  
    • Omg I was so annoyed. Like girl calm down. Coming on way too strong. Omg I forgot about this

    • I thought it got stale before Jocks death lol. His death picked things back up for me.
    • 1976 Pt 5 Tony is summoned to the reading of the will in the Llanfair library,as he’s a principal in the will. He tells Joe there’s not a chance of coming to terms with Dorian, as he is sure she brought about Victor’s death by torturing him emotionally when he was her helpless prisoner after his stroke. Ironically, Chapin hand delivers to Viki a letter her father wrote before his stroke, praising Dorian and asking Viki to befriend and support his widow when he was no longer there. Viki feels a responsibility to her father’s wishes and vows to try with Dorian. Victor’s will leaves the expected amounts to members of his family and staff, with the lion’s share of his stock and property going to Dorian. Victor’s will explains that his son Tony expressed the desire that he not be “bought from the grave,” and, in keeping with his son’s wishes, the only bequest to him is the knowledge of his father’s love and respect. Tony is deeply moved. Dorian’s first attempt to use her new power is the recommendation of Peter as head of the Merideth Lord Wolek hospital wing, claiming that naming Larry would be virtual nepotism. Peter, who has devoted considerable time and effort to helping Jenny get over Tim’s death with gentle, affectionate support, is happy at this suggestion, but Jenny points out Dorian is merely using him to hurt Larry. Viki disregards Dorian’s ingenuous assurances that she’s not trying to wield her new power but is merely putting Peter up for consideration for a future opportunity, if not this one, and tells her she won’t be able to fulfill her father’s desire that they be friends unless Dorian stops interfering. Larry, fully understanding Dorian’s personal motives, warns her he’s going to fight for the appointment no matter what. Realizing that she has made a tactical error, Dorian announces that she won’t even attend the board meeting but will give her proxy to Jim. She admits to Matt McAllister, still her confidant, that this was humiliating, but it was a necessary protective tactic. Dorian manages to win her next round at Joe’s office when, after he praises her decision to yield on appointing Peter, she expresses concern for Viki “at a time like this.” Joe, of course, jumps on her words, and Dorian, pretending great distress at having mentioned something she shouldn’t have, is “forced” to explain that she knew about the congenital heart condition Megan had and that any child of Joe’s is likely to inherit it. She overheard the doctors discussing it at the time of the accident, she continues, and naturally assumed that Joe already knew.  Joe arranges a meeting at home with Viki and asks her how she could live a lie like this; how she could go through their lives as if everything were fine while every moment was a lie. He is further upset when, in trying to explain that it was out of her love for him that she kept the truth from him, she mentions that Jim and Larry also know but Cathy still hasn’t been told. Viki tells Joe that Dorian deliberately told him this way to hurt their marriage, and she is very upset when he starts toward the door, pleading that they have always talked things out in the past. Joe coolly points out that she didn’t do that when she learned about Megan and continues out the door.  A tearful Viki is shaken and when Joe later returns, having spent several hours in a bar drinking only soft drinks,she breaks down, crying that she was convinced he’d left her. Joe assures her they can get through this despite everything, because their relation is based on love and mutual respect. 
    • If you think about it, DALLAS and DYNASTY grew stale right about the same time, even if the ratings were slow to reflect that.  FC and KL, on the other hand, tried to stay fresh, but KL was way more successful at it, I think, than FC.  (That [!@#$%^&*] with The Thirteen does not hold up well, lol).
    • GH 1976 Pt 8 Heather takes advantage of the situation by asking Jeff to come and look at Tommy. She uses sympathy, compassion, and her own feminine wiles, together with his misery and his pills, to lure him into bed. Later, sober, he apologizes. Learning from Pearson that Monica has seen a divorce lawyer, Jeff confronts her, and she insists it’s a lie. Avoiding his attempts to kiss her, she musses her hair and tears her blouse, then rushes to Rick’s, claiming that she can’t stay with that maniac any longer. They wind up in Rick’s bed, and after making love he confesses he always loved her. Rick replies to her question of whether he wants to marry her by saying he has to talk to Jeff. Monica insists that Jeff not bear any pressure from their problems. As she leaves, Rick gives her a key to his apartment. Jeff, having spent the night drinking, misses his surgical assignment, and Steve, informing him that his personal life can’t interfere with his profession, puts him on suspension. Rick can’t persuade Steve to reverse his decision, but Mark, sensing what’s at the heart of Jeff’s problem, convinces Steve to lift Jeff’s suspension and transfer him to Mark’s service. Rick asks for his key back, telling Monica they can’t do anything as long as she’s under Jeff’s roof. So she has a duplicate made and moves into intern’s quarters, explaining that Jeff’s violence drove her out. She tells Jeff she needs privacy to work things out, and tells Rick Jeff wanted her out. Thinking that this is the preliminary to a divorce, Rick tells her she can come to his place. In New York, Leslie’s abortion is delayed by a mix-up in scheduling, and she calls Terri to commiserate. Rick overhears Terri’s conversation and forces the whole story from her. He flies to New York to stop Leslie, feeling responsible for pointing out how evil Cam was, and arrives to find that she has decided she can’t deny her child the right to live. Monica, meanwhile, expecting that Rick will be home, uses her key to let herself into his apartment and is shocked to find Mark there; knowing that Mark was uncomfortable at the hotel, Rick offered Mark use of the apartment in his absence. Monica is upset to learn that Rick is in New York with Leslie, and Mark doesn’t know why. Mark does advise Monica to play fair with Jeff, but she resents his interference. The next day, while covering for Leslie at the clinic, Monica discovers Leslie’s lab test report and jumps to the conclusion that the baby is Rick’s. When Rick and Leslie return, Monica wastes no time in accusing him. He is dismayed to see that she is still as suspicious and possessive as she was before he went to Africa, and points out that her making a duplicate  key proves she hasn’t changed. Terri encourages Leslie to see Rick in a romantic light and then suggests to Rick that Leslie is interested in him. Rick likes this idea and tells Mark he’s growing ‘unwilling to cope with Monica’s unreasonable demands. But Monica immediately recognizes the threat Leslie represents and decides to attack. She goes to Leslie and tells her flatly that she and Rick are having an affair and he’s her exclusive property. Leslie, who realizes she has been falling in love with Rick, is hurt, and Rick is mystified when he feels Leslie pulling away from him. Monica’s big moment comes when she brings Rick a housewarming gift and seduces him into letting her stay overnight. She is in the bedroom when Leslie stops by to apologize for refusing his dates, and makes a dramatic entrance into the living room draped in Rick’s bathrobe. Leslie turns and runs out. Rick later informs her he’s disappointed in her, because she prejudged Monica and him rather than giving him the benefit of the doubt. Heather tries to arrange another tryst with Jeff, but he replies that he still loves his wife. Heather decides there’s only one way to get Jeff to be pregnant with his child. She manages to overhear Monica putting Jeff down by telling him he no longer turns her on and should look for someone he does. Heather goes to Jeff and tells him that she heard Monica and that she is the one he’s looking for. She manages to get him into bed again, and sweetly assures him this is right. She then sets the stage for future meetings. Steve, meanwhile, offers to help Monica and Jeff work out their problems. Jeff is willing, but Monica turns the idea down. Instead, she presses Terri to convince Jeff to end the marriage. Terri now knows that Monica isn’t a good wife for Jeff and promises to try. But Jeff makes it clear to Monica that he still loves her and won’t let her go. She is bitter and upset, as she has already implied to Rick that she will soon be free. Audrey is upset to find that Florence Andrews has been inquiring about Tommy and herself. She goes to Florence’s home and finds she’s away now. Florence has gone down to Mexico to sign a sworn statement that she purchased a false death certificate for Tom, to protect his son after his wrongful conviction. Tom, learning from her that Steve and Audrey are to be married and Steve is planning to adopt Tommy, tells  Florence not to do anything, as there’s still no assurance that he’ll ever get out. But the judge does accept the statement, and, ironically, on the day that Steve  and Audrey are married, Tom is released from prison.
    • 1976 Pt 12 Final part Laurie agrees with Stuart that Peggy is rushing into marriage to prove that the rape didn’t ruin her life.  She points out that the only way Peg can be sure is to make love with Jack before the wedding. Stuart admits she’s right but points out that he can’t suggest that to Peggy. As the wedding approaches, Peg seems happy that Jack’s become close to the family. However, her happiness is shattered by a nightmare in which her loving bridegroom turns into a leering Ron Becker, forcing her to cancel the wedding. Jack reassures her he’ll wait as long as it takes, and Chris confides that she and Snapper didn’t consummate their marriage on their wedding night because of her own rape experience, but Peggy tells Chris she might never be ready.  Despite her desire to keep Karen as her own daughter, Chris helps a police artist create a sketch of Nancy so it can be printed in the newspaper as part of a search for her. When the attempt proves fruitless, however, Chris asks Greg to file application for permanent custody of the child. Greg points out that adoption is the only way to prevent Ron from returning and claiming the child, and that it will take quite a while. Meanwhile, a nurse in the psychiatric ward sees a resemblance  between the newspaper drawing and her autistic patient, Mrs. Jackson, but since “Fran” doesn’t respond to the name Nancy and no one else sees the similarity, she fears she’s mistaken. Jill is horrified to overhear Kay, when brihging baby Phillip a Christmas gift, telling the child she remembers the night he was conceived. Kay has to then admit to Jill she saw her with Phillip in the bunkhouse that night. Jill is aghast to realize that Kay new the truth all along and put her through such agony in spite of it, denying her baby his father’s name. Lance tells Laurie they’ll marry on Valentine’s Day. He laughs that it’s corny but agrees, secretly wishing it were sooner, as Vanessa has vowed to prevent it. Indeed, Vanessa makes an unprecedented venture out of the house to visit Brad, telling him to rebuff any advance Leslie might make to him, as she’s reaching out to him only from a sense of duty. But Laurie then makes a concerted effort to reach Vanessa. Without being sure why she’s trying so hard, she tries to assure the woman she’s not losing Lance and she, Laurie, will help her find a plastic surgeon somewhere who can help her. Grudgingly, Vanessa seems to be reconsidering her view of Laurie, and Laurie is delighted when Lance offers her a choice between two diamond necklaces, explaining that her preference will be Vanessa’s Christmas gift. Learning from Les about Brad’s blindness, Stuart tells Brad he could have turned Leslie away only out of great love. Knowing that Les is going to see Brad again, Laurie warns him not to bring the baby into their discussion, as Leslie will come back only she’s convinced he loves her, not for the babies sake. Leslie finds Brad disheveled and sloppy, and proceeds to straighten the apartment, stating that she can't respect him if he lets himself go. Realizing that neither Brad nor Les will make the first move, Laurie hurries things along by refusing to help Brad with his grooming, saying he should ask his wife. Then, having learned  that Brad offered Les the use of their piano, Laurie untunes the Brooks' piano forcing Leslie to accept his offer. By refusing to cater to his  blindness, Les manages to get Brad to stop wallowing in pity, and by the time Leslie’s Christmas braille message of her love and her need for him arrives, they are husband and wife again Lance takes Laurie on a business trip on New Year's Eve, and tells her, on board his plane, she won't be  won't be able to call him “Mr. All Talk and No action” after tonight. When Laurie protests that waited this long and will continue to wait until married, Lance delights her by instructing his pilot to land in Las Vegas, where they are married immediately.
    • Yeah, not sure why Jack and Jen didn’t rush to Marlena - or even Carrie - to offer their condolences. A few flashbacks would've been a nice touch too. Instead, we got a whole episode of them talking about Chad and Abby? Come on. On the bright side, I loved Anna’s scenes with Marlena and Carrie - sweet and heartfelt, felt like a real 80s throwback.
