I made it three minutes into the broadcast before I made a “Seacrest is gay” joke at home.

Funny that - he was very much in the background in this episode. Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Seacrest: he was very much in the background in this episode.

I didn't notice it last night, but you're right.

Maybe the producer/editors realized we would rather see the singers (good or bad) instead of Seacrest hamming it up with the contestants.
