American Idol Season 8 ----SPOILERS INSIDE-----

I think it's BS that Alexis went home... but I don't think they should have given her the second chance. it's too early and while she is talented I don't think she is the one to save to win. but again I hate the way they do this stupid save thing. OK we are considering saving you so sing and then we'll decide... OOPS sorry you suck you go home

**prechrswife** · 03-19-2009, 01:01 PM

I don't think Alexis should have gone home, either, but I do agree that it is too early for the judges to use the save, considering how much further there is to go in the competition.

I see the contestants are in Detroit right now. Next week is Motown. It should be a great show!! I can't wait!!

I think the whole saving thing is really dumb. Alexis shouldn't of gone home, she was really good. But it was too early in the competition to use it. Their probably going to use it on Danny or Adam if they get voted off since everyone likes them the best.

I completely agree!!

I am seriously tired of Paula and Simon acting like two year olds. They're being disrespectful to everybody by acting this way. With so many famous people in the venue, somebody needs to stop it. I'm pretty sure they're not even listening to the singing.

On a lighter note: Tonight's performances, in my opinion:

Adam was totally awesome. Matt was awesome. Allison was awesome. Chris was good, Anoop was really good, Danny was pretty good but not great.

Megan needs to go home this week-I've never heard such a train wreck. Michael was exactly the way the judges called it. Scott was pretty bad. Lil was terrible--she was the one I thought would be great because she was so emotionally connected. She wasn't singing with the music and was completely messed up during the whole song.

If Megan gets to stay, I could give up the rest of the season. Adam is so fantastic, I think he'll go far no matter what America decides.

I don't know... I wasn't thrilled tonight.

I thought the only really great performance was Allison. anoop was good but other than that I wasn't overly impressed

It was hard to embrace different versions of some of the songs. I love Motown so much. Those kids really had to put forth an extra effort to sound as good as they did. Some of them either put forth no effort or overdid the songs. Overall, it wasn't real close to what I thought it would be tonight. I did think some of them were pretty good though.

When Simon put the moustache on Paula, I almost lost it.

I think that Megan,Scott, and Michael should be in the bottom three and Megan should end up going home. I also thought that Lil would do a great job and be in a league of her own. She really disappointed me.

Hopefully America will give her another chance though.

Adam was the best one of the night and he sure does clean up well too.

Danny is still one of my favorites even though he didn't do as well as I thought he should've. I want him to stick around so I called several times to vote for him.

Allison, Anoop, and Matt were also very good and I thought that Chris was just good. I also ended up voting for Allison because I don't want to see her in the bottom three again.

I sure hope that America chooses the right person to be sent home this week.

I think Michael, Scott and Lil should be in the bottom 3.
I don't care for Megan but she really is unique. I wouldn't mind seeing her for another week or so.
They all seemd to have a little bit of a hard time this week.

My top three are Adam, Danny and Matt. It's a battle of the boys!!!

The judges are so strange.... I agree Paula gets wierder every episode.
Simon is Simon. He's actually a great part of the show. He's really is good at his job. I always agree with what he has to say even if it comes out as harsh. The essence of what he has to say is usually on target.

**Daisy and Delilah** · 03-26-2009, 08:43 AM

I have to agree that Simon is pretty much on target with everything he says. His words are harsh but he speaks the truth alot better than I can say it.

I'm on a campaign to get rid of Paula forever!! She's not only out of it but now she's wayyyy too silly with these antics. Paula and Simon are playing while Randy and Kara are completely professional. Bring back the respect P and S!!!

Our DVR messed up, so I only got to see the last 50 minutes or so of last night's show (from Lil through the end). Sounds like I got to see most of the best ones, though. I really liked Adam's performance.

**Taz_Zoee** · 03-26-2009, 09:14 AM

I thought Michael, Scott, Matt and Lil weren't very good, IMO. I really like Megan but her song last night was HORRIBLE. She sounded better last week when she was sick. Her voice kept cracking last night. Maybe it was from just getting over being sick.

Adam was good, but I would have liked to hear him sing some lower notes. I really like it when he shows his broad range in his voice. Last night it was all so high pitched.

I really liked Danny and Allison. They are my top boy/girl favorites.

**Nomilynn** · 03-26-2009, 12:22 PM

Now that ANTM is on, I'm not watching the performances, just the boot-off episodes. I am finding this year REALLY boring. I think AI might be at the end of it's road for me!!

I just wrote an email to the Idol people on the link on their website.

There are some people posting about Paula and Simon on their forums. Most of it is positive reaction. There are some complaints. I don't mind a little goofing off but they've exceeded "a little".

This is supposed to be such a serious competition to those kids, I think they deserve more respect. Maybe they like the humor to settle their nerves? I don't know. I just can't see the judges asking for perfection when two of them are acting so silly.

I have a sense of humor but I don't like disrespect. There are boundaries. It was bad enough with Paula acting wasted most of the time. Simon joining her is really adding too much to setting a proper mood. Randy and Kara are so professional. They're probably getting tired of P and S too.
