American Idol - And then there were five

Last night proved to be one of the more memorable nights in a long time on American Idol. Almost everybody made great song choices and made them there own. Alas, that was where enjoying disco week ended though. Paula got a hold of the kids this week and choreographed one of the worst opening group medleys ever. Damn my DVR being extra busy tonight!!!! It had nothing to do with the dancing, more of the song choice, exaggerated mannerism, horrible costumes. I guess they are getting us ready for So You Think You Can Dance.

Now on to the results (I will not even comment on the Ford commercial.) Ryan gets down to business and Lil is, as predicted, is gone this week. I love that they didn't make her wait the whole hour. Even though we didn't have any mentors or special guests last night, they sure as hell made up for it tonight with a whole host of disco superstars that I am sure eighty percent of the audience wouldn't recognize if they were sat right next to them.

Back to the results, Prince Kris is safe tonight and rightly so. He was really fantastic last night. If he keeps this up, I am thinking Danny might just not make the final three which would make me very happy. King Adam is up next and looking very Elvis circa 1969 live special, is safe. Danny is proclaimed safe after a very cocky Q+A session with Ryan. I am really hoping he is either booted off the show completely or at least winds up in the bottom three soon so he can wipe that smug smile off his face. Anoop, as expected, is in the bottom yet again. How many times has been there this season? I wonder if the judges regret keeping him in the wild card round.

It's between Matt and Allison. Matt should be sitting next to Anoop but it's my girl, Allison who is led to the silver stool. I know a lot of people just don't care for her, which I just don't understand but I think she will be safe and this is just a little curveball to throw us off the scent. Seriously, Matt should not have been saved last week and should be right there with Anoop but as I said before it has to be the end of the line for Mr. Desai. Of course, we will have to wait another eighteen minutes before all being revealed.

David Archuleta is paying the Idol stage a visit. In my opinion, he still sucks and reminded us all why he didn't win last season. The boy's voice was reminiscent of Peter Brady when they decided to record "When It's Time to Change." Absolutely awful!

And I was right, Anoop is finally gone. Now if we can just get Danny and Matt out, we will have an amazing top three.

i'm still pulling for Danny, though I admit he needs to turn it up a notch at this point in the season
