Stefano will probably open on AI next week with the other losers. I hate that idea. I don’t want to see the losers until the finale and they better be wearing a chicken suit or somethin’.

Re: the losers. For all the hype about how great the talent is this year, the perfomances of those voted off were not good and their voices were not something I'd pay to hear, either CDs or live.

J-Lo and Tyler sounded really ridiculous saying how great they sounded.

Carrie Underwood and Jennifer Hudson, in my mind, have "Idol" status. I don't see that kind of combination of talent, individuality, maturity and independence in this year's crowd. Maybe this year's format, living together and working with the same coaches each week, sucks it out of them. Maybe Simon toughened them up. Who knows?
