Is anyone watching American Idol??? Part 2

[j]

lurker, I agree. I think Phil will go tonight. I liked Blake the most and ---------------- I thought Sanjaya sounded half way decent!!!!! He really works those dark eyes of his and knows how to play the cameras.

Ok ---I'll admit it --- I watched it last night (there was no Red Sox game on). I thought the Blake guy was the best but Haley needs to stay for entertainment value alone.

This Sanjaya guy makes my skin crawl. He's a might bit too feminine for my tastes, (not that there's anything wrong with that if your a female

Looks like [spoil]Lakisha[/spoil] may be going tonight(in fact that's the widespread belief).

They are getting predictions probably from http://www.bookmaker.com . They have been right apparently the last 3 times.

Here are the odds as of 6 pm EST:

[spoil]
PHILIP JOEL STACEY +600

HALEY SCARNATO +550

CHRIS RICHARDSON +1200

BLAKE LEWIS +4500

I really would be shocked if that happens

"Ratings down 30% since the season premiere", a quote on a show a few minutes ago. I need to check those numbers, it is down some(in fact 600,000 less watched last night than last Tuesday) but it always drops from the premiere to this stage, so it's not as dramatic as it sounds. It still gets a 15 rating and a 25 share, more than any other show, but I do think it's going to continue to drop if the person above goes.

I thought so too. Sanjaya and Haley aren't dumb - they're going to use whatever they can to try and stay as long as possible.

Can you even imagine the uproar and reaction of the judges if Lakisha goes? That will be one of the biggest surprises next to Tanya Gray and Chris Daughtry last year.

If Lakisha goes, it could be because the "diva" effect (see Season 3 -- Fantasia, LaToya, Jennifer H). The weakest of this season's "divas" is Lakisha. The votes are being split between 3 singers (Melinda, Jordin and Lakisha) with similar styles (though I think I am stretching the "similar style" in Jordin's case). Eventually, the weakest will be kicked off.

Compared to Season 3, none of them, IMHO are anywhere close to being a "diva". It's still early in the game for this to happen, considering Haley, Phil, Sanjaya and Chris are still there. Sometimes the "diva" effact backfires on the biggest diva - the one that acts like one and none of these have their noses that far up in the air yet.

Well, with Sanjaya still in the game, it might kick in early

I have to agree with you on that one too!

Chris going last year absolutely STUNNED me. I didn't see it coming AT ALL. Ever since I've been trying to see every spoiler so I wouldn't be surprised. I have been a little surprised at some of the boots this year(especially Gina last week), but haven't yet been totally shocked. Lakisha wouldn't do it since I've seen her name floating around all day, but either of the other 2 main women would.

1 hour long show....... We only need to turn the show on for the last 5 minutes!

[Brent]

Great group song.

NOT looking forward to most of the rest of the filler though.

I thought there was an extreme lack of energy among the contestants tonight. . . though I think Sanjaya' stock just went up with that performance again. He is learning to work the camera. . .

[Stephanie]

LOTS of filler tonight...

[lurkey]

Lakshia is safe. Phil in the bottom three. Haley is in the bottom three.

Ok, that's being mean to Sanjaya.

[BreinLa]

Well Lakisha stays

[BreinLa]

This is terrible
Sani stays

[Brent]

Chris R in the bottom three?

OK, that must be the shocker. It better be Phil or Haley.

[lurkey]

Sanjaya's safe. He gonna make it to country night!! LOL. . .
