Our Take On The American Idol Results Show 'The Final 5' 04-30-08 Wednesday Night was once again the 'Results Show' where the results of "America's" votes were broadast, with the ending result of one contestant being sent home... The below were the contestants declared to be in the 'bottom two' of the Final 5 by "America", with their scores ranked by Tina and Michael from the night of their latest performance: The 'Bottom 2 Of The Final 5'
General show news first: Over 45 million votes came in after the performances were broadcast, which was up 7 million votes from the week before! The 'mentor' of this week performed a song from his upcoming 26th album to be released in May 2008.... Ryan Seacrest stated that although the previous night's show might not have been the 'strangest' one yet (IHHO), it definitely was the quickest. We would have to agree to that last part, as it was a very 'choppy' show for us! Ryan also pointed out before the results were started, that the rumours 'about Paula' were not true. "She is part of our family! " OK, that didn't exactly answer which one of all the different rumours that were out there about Paula he was addressing... However in a previous blog post I mentioned that Simon said on the Larry King show a few weeks ago that all 3 judges were signed for 2 more seasons... Next week's "theme" is 'Rock n' Roll Hall Of Fame Songs'. Secondly: The following are our own thoughts while watching the process, and the results being announced: Tina was perturbed that Jason was 'safe' for this week. She expressed it a little out of character for her, in 'Who the h... is voting for him?! So immediately after that it was... "well then it must be Syesha going home..." Tina is also through with David A... as she just doesn't care for him now as his style is not one she likes and has actually grown to dislike it... Tina is still surprised that Jason didn't go home before Brooke, but Tina also said in fairness that Brooke should have gone home weeks ago when she flubbed her lyrics... Michael was a little surprised that both 'girls' were in the bottom two, but then again, it's been forecast that the final two will be 'boys' this season... Michael caught that Simon had said Syesha would be in trouble after her performance, but had figured that it would be Jason and Brooke in the bottom two this week... not withstanding Jason's fan base. Michael also thought that the best scene of the night was the Q & A segment where Simon was asked if he recalled his 1st kiss by a caller from his childhood! Now that was worth watching the show for! The rest of the results show performances were pretty lame IHHO! BTW, as stated in last week's results blog post, we are in North San Diego County area, so we have seen several local Fox TV News segments on Carly Smithson, who was 'sent home' last week. She actually made back to San Diego yesterday, so there were several news segments during the day and evening on that homecoming! For those that will miss Brooke White, you might want to check out her record album from 2006 titled 'Brooke White - Songs From The Attic' as pictured at the above right! We don't sell it, haven't heard it played, but wanted to bring album that to the attention of our blog readers! We are Down To The Final Four next week! Our personal picks at this time are in order: David C, Syesha, David A and Jason... but since this is a 'popularity contest' and not a 'talent contest', it will probably be David A, David C, Jason and Syesha ending up in that order...! For those that missed our previous blog posts on this TV Show.... Please see the following link for our most previous blog post. We have been blogging about Season 7 since the first week:
