30 million? Wow. That's almost half as many as Star Trek, before it was cancelled for low ratings.

[Jrabbit]

Does this mean they get a do-over tonight with the same songs?

[Hatteras]

Thank you, does that mean I go again?!

[VRWCisme]

No, the performances will be replayed. The ones who did poorly (Mikalah) don't get to try to sing on key this time!

[Jrabbit]

LOL

Thanks. I may never forgive my sister for making me care about this show!

[OldFriend]

Mikalah should have gone home last week!

Funny but the Smith guy was kicked off and returned when loverboy quit.

Smith has a great voice and great stage presence too.

Glad he got a second chance.

Simon was so mean to the heavy kid last night......sheesh......

[Hildy]

She is horrible...I turned off the sound last night when she started singing. So what's gonna happen tonight? This will be one boring show.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

So will they just replay the tape of yesterday's show? I voted for several people: Vonzell, Anwar, Bo, Scott and Constantine. Really I am just hoping Mikalah is gone this week. Please don't make me listen to her sing another song. She has a wonderful and charming personality, but she's an awful singer. She should try acting.

Anwar is my favorite singer; but if he doesn't start doing a better job picking songs, he's going to be gone soon.

My favorite performance last night was from Constantine, closely followed by Vonzell and then Bo..and then Scott. I thought the choice of The Partridge Family song was just hilarious.

[VRWCisme]

I agree, I am hooked. Carrie was awesome last night, and Jessica was really good, too. I guess the 80s female rockers were the way to go to do well last night!

[Hildy]

They all sang well except for Mikalah. She's like American Idol 2 years ago. These AI's are polished, it's getting to be more Star Search than American Idol. Not that I mind that. I'd rather hear good singing all the time, then great singing once in a blue moon!

[quantfive]

How about Paula Abdul last night? She was out of control with first kissing Simon when he agreed with her and then snapping at him when he disagreed. I bet she is not part of the voting panel next season.

[Hildy]

She's more a Barbra Streisand wannabe.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

I thought Paula was cute last night. No way will they get rid of her.

[Haddon]

Puh-lease Mikalah go home!!!! I can't take it anymore!!

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Do you like her personality though? I think Mikalah has a delightful personality. She just can't sing worth a darn.

[texaschick]

We can only hope.

America needs a rocker "Idol" - GO BO!!!

If I were a true skeptic, I'd guess the producer didn't like the vote results and created this snafu so there could be a do-over show.

Well, I'm a true skeptic and I agree with you.
One of their faves didn't make it...maybe Bo?
His low key, Jim Croce song might have been not 'over the top' enough.
I loved it.

[Sicon]

To once again quote Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog, singing about the Ruben vs. Clay debacle a while back:

Ruben or Clay, which one do I pick?
It's like trying to choose which puddle of vomit to lick.

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

I think Carrie Underwood will win

Agree. She's got it all..............great voice, beautiful looks, and a pleasant presence. She definitely stands out even though a few others are also talented.

I am not as positive about the overall with Jessica ????, (last performer on Tuesday) but she has a wonderful voice, IMO.

[mict42]

She can't sing.
