American Idol, Season 5 **Official Discussion Thread**

[PooohBear]

By the way, did anyone else think it was obvious that the top row of girls was the top 6? To me it seemed like it was pointless to even go through them, which is why I guess they just called all 6 of their names both times and said "you're safe."

Yeah, I thought that was way too obvious

Here are a couple of pics of Ace with short hair:

OMG! He looks even better with short hair! Do all the brothers have the same great looks? Look at those biceps! Awww...I'm going to have a hard time paying attention to his singing next week.

 

[Sandy22]

wow - I am shocked that the first girl is gone! I also hate that they make them sing!

I wish AI would let the losers sing a song of their choice. It's like a parting slap in the face that they have to re-sing their losing performance again.

I'm obviously in the minority but I thought Bobby was entertaining and more memorable than some of the other guys.

I also enjoyed the group song...I think it's the first time I actually enjoyed the group song. During that song Bucky and Chris impressed me but the crooner guys, David and Will, sounded bad compared to the others.

I AGREE WITH BEING OBVIOUS ABOUT THE GIRLS ROWS ON WHICH WAS SAFE BUT THEN WHEN WE WENT TO THE GUYS ...HOW THEY HAD THEM ALL MIXED UP I GOT A LITTLE WORRIED. I DID THINK THERE WAS WORSE SINGING THAN PATRICK BUT THAT HE WAN'T GREAT. I ALSO THOUGHT THERE WAS WORSE SINGING ON THE GIRLS BUT THAT OUT OF THE ONES BEFORE THE FINAL 12 THAT THOSE WOULD LEAVE.

Ack! I think Ace looks like Scott Peterson in that second short hair pic! Please...get that image from my head!!!!!

I love Ace, Taylor and Chris. They are all so great in such different ways...can't wait to see what next week holds in store!

 

[Planogirl]

I don't think that Ace looks anything like Scott Peterson! Of course, Peterson has a handsome face hiding a monster inside so I can see why it kind of spooked you if you think they look alike in that picture.

The only one that I was upset with leaving tonight was Patrick Hall. I think their were others who could have taken his place. I thought he was good enough to come back for another try, and if he blew it again then go home.

I just hope that next week, Brenna, will be one of the girls going home. And David Radford, who should have gone home tonight, will be gone as well.

But all my favs survived the night, just hope they will be able to do it again next week.

Ok, maybe someone can help me here-

What the heck is the name and artist of the song they keep playing?

"had a bad day..." I dont remember the rest of the words

Thank you!

 

[Sandy22]

"had a bad day..." I dont remember the rest of the words

Thank you!

I think the song is called Bad Day and it's by Daniel Powter.

I love that song!

Thank you!!! Perfect American Idol song... except sometimes it's more than a "bad day"

DS and I were talking about that tonight. Its like saying, "Hey, you really sucked last night - do it again!"

2) next week! Brenna and David!
3) All my Favs made it tonight!!

I am already excited about next week....is this the time of the competition they do theme weeks....or is that in the final 12....great time to watch TV...Survivor and AI next week starts The Apprentice and The Amazing Race and Two and a Half Men on Mondays....gotta love....good thing I excercise 3 days a week....

 

[dolphindan1]

Also I agree with what someone else said earlier....I dont think its right that it has to be 6 and 6....Thats not a real true fair competition...even getting 12 to 12 was not fair....You cant argue the ratings though

The theme night won't start until we have our final 12. That is also the time when the stylest are finally able to get there hands on them. I'm sure that their are a few that they would like to get their hands on now.

I enjoyed Bobby just because he was over the top and made me laugh. The guy put everything into his performance and should at least be commended for that.

It was odd they did a group song at 24. I bet we get a top 20 group song where only the girls get solos next week.

I've seen those Ace picture floating around for awhile now. He looks a bit like Scott Peterson, but I see more Rob Mariano (Survivor, TAR) in him.

Brenna will go next week, but don't think David will. I want to see Brenna last longer, but she just doesn't have any fans.

 

[aprilgail2]

Well all you ace fans if you really like him you better start VOTING over and over!! Newsday today is reporting that Ace, Elliot and Chris were "among the LOWEST vote getters" ! That was surprising!!

 

[boomhauer]

Well, I'm done. Becky got voted off. No reason to watch now.

 

[Lizzydoll73]

I thought he was more Fred Savage from "The Wonder Years" than Bobby Brady

I think Will looks like Peter Brady not Bobby.
