American Idol 2020 and Beyond

Only on Mondays. And the Voice last night was a filler “Best of Blinds and Battles.” The season started a month ago; I can remember that far back without a recap. :grin:

Any one else notice that Katy wasn’t even hiding the fact that she was reading the patented dumb fakeout decisions from her note cards?!? "“I think the dream ends now.” pause pause oause “The dream becomes a reality. You are in our Top 24.”

Also not loving the fact that some top 24 artists didn’t even get their performances montaged and the clips aren’t freely available.

There are quite a few (possibly all, I haven’t gone through them all) on you tube - I searched American Idol 2024 Showstoppers - TalentKingHD seems to be posting them.

Not the missing ones, e.g. Quintavious. At least not yet

I was going back and forth last night. Bummer that even the commercials are at the same time!!!

I didn’t like Hollywood Week being cut so short. It’s usually my favorite episodes of the season. I wish they would cut back on some of the audition episodes and not make cuts so fast. I didn’t even have a chance to get invested in the contestants enough to care who stayed or got sent home.

Wow! Just finished night 2, and seriously, with only a couple of exceptions I thought every performance was wonderful.

Jelly Roll surprised me - what a cool guy, super supportive and I think I’d like a bear hug from him!

Here you go! Quintavious https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Goc8h9UxMOQ

That’s last week’s from Hawaii - not from Showstoppers. Still great, though.

Anyway, tonight’s show, which is 3 hours, was taped Wednesday and we’re losing two people each from last Sunday and Monday’s shows. And starting tomorrow, as Ryan would say, we are live

Drat - you can tell I didn’t watch it first - I thought it was the showstopper…Now I wonder why it’s not been made available.

I just checked the spoilers to see who’s going home tonight. No big surprises

And again- AI and The Voice are both on. Which to watch? Don’t like to watch recorded version for some reason

For anyone who has watched earlier seasons on Fox, Mandisa, who competed in Season 5 (aka the season Chris Daughtry or Katherine McPhee or really anyone other than Taylor Hicks should have won) passed away yesterday. She was 47.

I was very surprised by those eliminated on Tuesday.

There are a few that are still in that should’ve been out long ago…my opinion -

Have you been watching?

At least one I wanted out is now out.

I was thinking last night, we didn’t have the group challenges or even duets this season. I wonder why…

How fun seeing Just Sam! They were one of my favorites.

Yup. My favorites are still in.

I still alternate between AI and the Voice

Of course the day I wrote that we had the groups/duets - they just weren’t part of the elimination process.
