American Idol Recap: So Far So Bad

Please note: if you're watching on M-Net Series, this includes spoilers for Saturday's Results Show (on 13 March) so you may wish to return once the episode's been on. xoxo

So! Eight are down and there are 20 to go.

Eliminated in the first pack of four ... all for very good reasons (I can't even remember them - had to "fast forward rewatch" to see who left first):

ashley_rodriquez
Ashley Rodriguez

tyler_grady
Janell Wheeler - I was very relieved about it - I couldn't tell her and that Didi chick apart at all, so it's much better she's gone.

tyler_large
Tyler Grady

joe_munoz
Joe Muñoz

Then, after this week's epic six-hour performance and double Results Show combo, it was:

john park
John Park

jermaine_sellers
Jermaine "I rocks a onesie" Sellers

michelle_delamor
Michelle Delamor

haeley_vaughn
Haeley Vaughn

Also all very deserving I thought - although the guys are waaay worse than the girls generally. It's crazy to see how unconfident and stiff everyone is - I thought Americans were so super-confident yet this crowd are plagued by self-doubt and fear.

It's as if you want/need-need to see everyone eXploding with energy and focus and yet none of them do.

Also, I'm seriously disappointed in Andrew Garcia:(. What's going on with him!? As you may know, after his Paula Abdul performance, I was convinced he was gonna Own the competition but his last two performances have been mediocre at best. All that sitting around he's doing does nothing to help him.

This week - when he was going on about being a break dancer - I thought he'd at least bring some of the break-energy to his performance but all he did was sit there, with no buzz at all.

As the Dog and the rest of the judges have said, he's safe-enough based on his one performance - we all obviously want to see such a thing again - but if he doesn't pull it off, I'm afraid he's gonna get swallowed by the competition.

As for who's lookin' hottest of the dregly crowd right now - who I thought was best and most improved this week:

lee_1
Lee Dewyze - for his singing too, a.k.a it's not only 'cos of his tattoos.

crystal_large
Crystal Bowersox

And my absolute WORST. It isn't only his hair and the Jonas brothers clone that he needs such a smack for.

He. CAN'T. Sing.

I'm stumped that he hasn't been whacked yet too. This week - it has to be surely?
