Just curious about that.

I agree with you about Melinda.
I mean, she can sing well, but the aw shucks act has got to go. You know who else bugs me? Phil Stacey...He is just creepy to look at too. My faves are Lakisha, Blake, Chris Richardson, and sometimes Jordan (not last night, she shouted the song). Anyone but Sanjaya. Come on, last night EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE, was better than him. He HAS to go.
I totally agree. Melinda is my favorite!

I agree with I think Melinda & Jordin will be the final 2 but...sm
would love to see Blake go next. I'm tired of hearing these guys who don't sing better than you can find at karaoke keep singing week after week. It's about time Phil & Chris went home!
I agree probably to annoy Simon
but it is just not fair to the other contestants who should not be voted off.
I watch the show for the talent, not the fun and games but that is what gets the ratings.
Probably will stop watching if this nonsense continues.
I so agree... I have been watching every week....sm
waiting for the end and than the fade to black. I am like others who thought their TV went off or Direct TV had a glitch. I mean what the heck? Such a let down. I hate it when movies or TV shows leave you hanging like that as I am one of those who then spends days thinking out other ends, etc. and then just drive myself crazy, lol. I guess they have left themselves wide open for options of a full length movie or such. Geez.
Agree 100%, I enjoyed watching and listening

Melinda sm
Melinda is the best! The best don't usually win if they are as nice as Melinda, she's the epitomy of virtue! She alsos is the epitomy of humility!
Melinda sm
Melinda hands down is best, however, people judge by youth, looks, etc., I heard on this board that she has "no neck." How very sad, she's the best, humble, talented and more. Life is not fair, I am upset. It's the same in every profession, sometimes the "best" pushed aside. Pray she does well, she deserves it!
Lakisha and Melinda are definitely the best.
I would have a hard time choosing between them if they made it in the final 2. The guys haven't really impressed me much, but Chris Sligh is kind of fun to watch.
I like Melinda and Lakisha too but...
Does anyone else have a problem with Melinda's lack of a neck? I just can't stop looking for it.
Melinda was great but . . .
Did you ever hear Shirley Bassey do that song? It's one of my favorites, so I wasn't that impressed. Believe it or not, she did not hit the last note.
NO! And, like he is better than Melinda? lol What a joke.
Poor Melinda, I seriously think she was in shock, like the rest of us.
Melinda and Lakisha rocked!
I love Lakisha's song choice, though. One of my favorites. Jordan is excellent but a little young...she will only get better. I was expecting more of out Stephanie, and Blake and Chris Richardson were the best men...but that ain't saying much..LOL
Melinda, my are absolutely my IDOL
Her songs are beyond belief. Here is wishing her the very best. What a great show tonight!!
she cried at end for Melinda Doolittle
 just an overly emotional prepubescent 10 y/o girl is all that little girl was being - herself actually
I always think of Barbara S when Melinda performs. (sm)
Although I don't enjoy Barbara S because her ego is so unattractive, but still I can see her talent. It is nice to hear a singer that you are confident is going to hit every note every time and never let you down. That's what I think they both have, and Melinda may be just trying to avoid anybody seeing her with a big ego so that she doesn't lose fans for it. In other words, I do think the humility thing is an act, but she's trying to avoid the other extreme.
Jordin, Melinda, and Lakesha, and
it's all about song choice from here on in.
I like Melinda, Blake, and Jordan
the others are fine too. At this point all their styles are different. Some copy, some original, some so talented that they will do well whether they win or not. Melinda mellows me, Blake makes me want to dance, Jordan makes me smile.
What did Simon say?
I only saw the end of the show last night and missed the rest...what did he say???
Simon
 He is my sweet lhasa-poo!
My dog, Simon,
Lays across my foot, which cramps my style sometimes with my foot pedal, but it sure is nice in cold weather!
Simon
Oh I like Simon for the most part, but he can be a jerk at times. I don't think they should sugarcoat, but he could try not ripping out someone's heart when giving criticism (like that one girl that he told "if it's any condolence you wouldn't have won anyways") I mean that really wasn't necessary! But that's part of the shows ratings!
I can't remember the kids name either, but I thought he was good, and I think he could be marketable if they dressed him up a bit.
Still wish Jamal had made it. And I don't know if I'll ever get over Tatiana's looniness. I still wish Rose had made it, I really liked her, she was original!
she cried equally at end for Melinda Doolittle
I remember crying over the Beatles when I was 14.....LOL
I saw Simon lean over and say something
to Paula. It can't have been good. And Ryan came right out and asked what she'd spent her money on, and she says SHOES! Um, we hadn't noticed the shoes, gal. Not with those balloons popping out of that ugly dress that didn't fit. Money never did buy taste. The voice is still pretty though.
i think iit was all made in fun, and besides if Simon did not like him
he would not be hosting the show.
I think even Simon is getting worried
He said if Sanjaya wins he will quit. He must be getting a lot of votes. Even Howard Stern is pushing people to vote for the kid.
That seems to be what Simon thinks
and I agree they will probably do well. I think the guy in the red/orange suit - lol - will be going home. He was sort of terrible. David is it? The 17 year old. Just how much cuteness can one have? LOVE HIM! But I am just drooling over the guy that sang c'mon baby light my fire and oh yes I definitely would! Is he hot or what? lol. I can't wait to see the girls tonight. I just love this show.
To me, there IS no show without Simon. The other
judges are predictable fluff, but he actually voices a real opinion without holding back, even if I occasionally disagree with him. I think keeping Kara and/or letting Simon leave would seriously screw up the show & make them lose a lot of viewers!
Ryan and Simon are FRIENDS
He wasn't being nasty or rude IMO. In fact, Ryan set him up for that "Come out" comment and he knew it. Might have even been planned ahead of time.
Not sure why everyone else is upset about the comments if Ryan isn't. JMO
I believe Simon AND Randy were in shock too!
Will answer about who cares about Simon
She stated when booted off, "I love you Simon but I really don’t care." She was asked by Ryan what did she say and it was repeated. Well, no one needs to care about Simon unless they want to continue to be on the show, get exposure for their work, land a multimillion dollar contract. Other than that I would say let her go with the wind. I thought she was a real twit. She was really the worst so I can understand her being targeted as votefortheworst, sounds like they picked the right one!
bye bye Chris. Simon was cruel
when he said that Danny beat Chris in the duet. That just did Chris in. He was marked as a defeated man for the rest of the show. Or maybe it was just me.
The funny (sad?) thing about Simon's comment (sm)
is that Sanjaya thought he was sincerely complimenting him. He didn't seem to understand that Simon was hoping if perhaps he made a positive comment instead of a negative one that Sanjaya might actually get the boot this week. Let's hope it works!
Actucally Ryan and Simon's remarks to each other
are just for show. They are actucally very good friends in real life. Not that I necessarily think it is funny, but it is sometimes fun to see someone go after Simon and know they won't be judged (as in the singers).
Don't worry, David A will will, Simon made sure of that.
I was completely disgusted last night, watching them trying to sway the votes. Every single online poll for WEEKS has had David Cook far ahead of the others, so they have to play the BS card last night to make it look like David A. is better so when they fake the votes and he wins, it doesn't look rigged.
I do like David A. but Cook is far more talented and has more range/versitility and appeals to a larger audience. I know he will do well either way, better than David A. in my opinion - but I would love for him to get the recognition of actually winning.
Actually Simon has the nose for real talent
and he is only telling the truth whereas Paula, Kara and sometimes even Randy try to sugarcoat. I totally am fully behind Simon. Danny is good but who was the second guy who sang, slow song and had not seen him before, really good. As far as replacing the girl thrown off, they did not announce a replacement of any kind. I was surprised that Danny's friend did not make it. He is really good, also. I like Danny, think he will go far because not only good singer but also very, very likeable. I was also surprised that lots seemed really nervous last night and I think it showed big time. I think the guys have the girls beat all over the place this time. I think Tatiana is good but might have gotten off on a bad footing with the audience because of acting so looney.
Exactly, I think Kara should go and Randy, Paula and Simon should stay
like it was before.
Chris will go today!
One hour, it's on here now and Simon just made a snide remark about Taylor Hicks
AGAIN! lol Enjoy :)
Donna/Barb doing Enough Is Enough; Helen Reddy's I Am Woman; Carly Simon's theme song from Wor

I think he is doing his job and watching over you.
Can you honestly believe that in the face God, whom you supposedly worship at church and live for, it is okay to portray and celebrate evil or anti-God anything?
If you do, then you really need to visit your preacher today.
As for watching...sm
I think it's because they wouldn't pay much attention to the teacher:-) I sat right outside the door with the other moms and talked, and we could pretty much hear everything. I know there are pricier places that allow you watch on a TV screen, which would be neat. That's not a bad price for the costume if that's what it'll be! Thanks for responding!
Not really into it, but watching it anyway.
Why oh why do I keep watching??? (sm)
Please, if they let Taylor and Nick's baby be Brooke's egg....I'll scream! Can it get any more ridiculous than that? I guess it can though, I mean having the ex-wife of your present husband/daughter of your husband's ex-wife/woman who once carried your husband's child but miscarried artificially inseminate you...come on now, too whacked for me! But I do keep watching...
I'm nor sure after watching exactly (sm)
what to think. I never did follow the story very closely. I don't believe she is much of a speaker, but after the life she says she led, that is not surprising. What mainly caught my attention and really annoyed the bejeebers out of me is Oprah's attitude. To me it seemed so obvious that she wasn't "buying" any of it, and I'm glad the lawyers called her on her remark at the end of the show. I don't care much for his parents, not sure why, but I don't, just a feeling. I hope she gets her kids back.
DH was watching it...
He wanted a cuda' for his b-day on Monday. Yeah, honey. You betcha'!
Watching AI
I watched it periodically last night. We were at my father-in-law's for his 80th birthday. Maybe it was because I didn't see everyone, but I didn't like this group at all. There was no one I was interested in watching. I did like I think three out of the ones that I saw, but like I said I don't think it helped that I really get a chance to sit down and really watch it. I'm just waiting for the competition to really start. It seems like it's dragging this year with the way they're doing things.
Ya all watching ER.
Sniff, Sniff. Not sure what I'm gonna do without it. Last episode is pretty good so far. Sniff, sniff.
What an awesome post! I agree, agree, agree completely with you.
 You are right on the money in my book! 
Is everyone watching this on MSNBC?
Which attorney collapsed?!?! What happened? I missed it.
Well, actually, watching everything you put into your mouth is not
really living, is it?!?! I agree with your post to a point, I think most people try to eat healthy these days, but personally I enjoy a Big Mac supersize meal with a Coke, an entire bag of chips or a HUGE slab of cheesecake once in a while. Gotta live a little ;)
so what you're saying is watching them is bad..*lol*
