Yeah, and what's up with all the commercials?? Hello!!!! We are loving our TIVO too.

Speaking of waiting 1/2 hour -- it's best to watch this show with your DVR/TIVO in use. Lets you skip through Ryan's mindless drivel and then when Paula or Simon gets to be too much, you can forward through the judges as well. You can watch the show in about 30 minutes. I don't think I'd be as big a fan if I had to watch the entire show.

I hope it is Bucky or Ace. My favorite is McPheever. I don't think she did well last night. I was amazed that the judges thought she was good. I think they want to keep her around.

Last night McPheever and Pickler did really good

Taylors song was entertaining - not necessarily great vocals

Chris - what a fool to pick that obscure song...he should have picked a better one - Simon was right when he told Chris that he's too self indulgant with his song choices. Chris is my favorite but last nights song choice sucked

Elliot did ok but it wasn't spectacular

Paris did really good

Ace picked the worse possible song - Chris should have sung that song not Ace... Ace is not a rocker
My pick for this week's removal is Ace

Last night I think the women did better on the songs then the guys

Good, about McPheever. I don't know what it was about her song I didn't like. I forgot about Pick Pickler. I thought she was great! I think Paris can do most anything. She is not my favorite but she is a good entertainer. I was thoroughly entertained by Taylor! Who says white men can't dance?

Ace wil probably go home tonight because of his rendition of We Will Rock you. Also I have to honestly say that I voted for Kelly because her version of Bohemian Rhapsody rocked. I was shocked that Chris didn't choose more of a popular Queen song to rock this week. Also was Taylor's song even done by Queen, I thought it was something else.

The bottom three will be Ace, Katherine, Taylor but Ace will go home.

Ace should have song We are the Champions instead of We will rock you - that would have been better suited for his vocal range - he screwed up and tried to take the easy route - his song choice could have been sung by any joe on the street.

Kelly did an outstanding job of Bohemian Rhaposdy and that was a funky/cool outfit she had on...

Chris really screwed up...he's trying to be mr. cool and that song choice was bad... (I have every album/song ever made by Queen - and its a lot of music, I consider their style to be rock/opera) that was one of the worse choices for Chris to make... there were so many better songs he should have chosen to show off his talent

Yes, the song Taylor sung was done by Queen - its called "Crazy Little Thing Called Love". It was released in 1979 and went to #2 on the charts.

Was it just me, or did anyone else think that Chris's eyebrows looked really dark (darker than before)...? His stubble seemed different too....either darker or just a little longer than before. He just looked different last night, and I couldn't really put my finger on what it was.....

I really liked Taylor's performance.....He's just plain fun to watch, because he's having a lot of fun every time he sings...

I'm pretty sure Chris was wearing makeup...maybe some eyeliner?

I had a smile on my face throughout Taylor's whole performance. I loved the energy and him attempting to kick the mike stand and missing it was just priceless.

Um, me. dj.gif These yellow guys are much better. Actually I think Taylor's dancing saved him. He is so blah without it.

You know, Ace did much better than I expected. Very glad Katharine changed her mind; she looked waaay out of place dancing around the stage, tryin' to be a rocker. I liked Chris last night, though the song probably didn't appeal to that many people. Like the guy's pipes. Taylor did a straight-up copy of the original until the very end. Then he showed some talent and style. Pickler looked like she was dressed up for Halloween and was playing the part of a rocker. I didn't like it very much. Lastly, I agreed with Simon that Paris' performance was weird. She can sing, though, no doubt about it.

I was expecting Ace to leave as well. I was disappointed to see Bucky go although I didn't think he would make it to the end.

I was so sure it would be Ace tonight......but I agree that Bucky wasn't going to last another week anyway...

I couldn't believe how they filled the whole hour tonight with just a bunch of drawn-out stuff...I enjoyed seeing the clips from each singer's families, tho. But still, they could have done all that in 1/2 hour. When I saw it was an hour tonight, I thought maybe they'd have Queen there to perform. I wish they had!!!
